“Katie did a great job with caring for my 2 male cats for a week. One of my cats had been recently diagnosed with a medical issue. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Katie was staying at my house & frequently checking up on him.”




2. Carol B.

“Carol was so great. The dogs were happy and the house was perfectly clean. It was like we never left. We will definitely book Carol again. Thank you so much, Carol!”


3. Stephen F.

“Stephen did a fantastic job. I have a seriously hard to feed 5 pound poodle. Stephen was able to win him over and keep him fed. He sent us updates via text every day. Even on his hard to feed days, Stephen did everything he could. He was great at following our written care plan. And, he was a courteous house guest. We look forward to having Stephen stay with our little guy again”


4. Elizabeth C.

“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our pup, Spud, and she made the entire experience so much easier by providing such loving and attentive care. We came home to happy dogs! She went above and beyond—not only taking great care of our pups but also handling little accidents from Spud with patience. She also sent daily updates and pictures and kept in constant communication, which we truly appreciated! Knowing how they were doing throughout our trip gave us so much peace of mind. We are so grateful for her kindness, updates, and the thoughtful note she left for us. We would love to have her back for future visits! If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and detail-oriented to watch your pets, we highly recommend Elizabeth. She’s the best! 🐶💛”


5. Taylor R.
“I trust almost no one but Taylor to watch my dog while I’m away. She is very communicative and takes the time to give great updates and pictures. Every time I come home after Taylor has watched him he always seems calm. It feels so much better knowing he’s left in good hands.”

11. Judith M.

“Judy helped me out on last minute booking. I just wanted my Anya to be able to stay home so she would be more comfortable. Judy sent me photos and updates the whole time. I got to sit in a meeting and smile when the photo popped up. She left my home in great shape! The best part? Anya was calm and peaceful when I came home, not anxious and nervous as she is when I pick her up from the kennel. Judy is the best!”

“Yunyi has consistently demonstrated her deep love and responsibility towards furry friends and I cannot recommend her high enough. Yunyi has been taking care for her own beloved cats over 5 years and I am consistently impressed with her dedication and attentiveness. She feed her cats on time with nutrious meal as planned, frequent check on level of water bowl, always keep the litter box clean, and have a track on the litter situation from day to day. She would love to have kitties sit on her laps and have affection with her! Yunyi also shows incredible love to doys as well. She spent extra time taking care of her colleague dogs whenever she's available at workplace,and always love to take energic puppies for a walk. Moreover, Yunyi is incredibly responsible and reliable. They are always punctual and maintain a strict schedule for feeding, grooming, and medical care. I trust her implicitly with the welfare of my furry family member.”

18. Sammie S.
“We entrust Sammie with the care of our beloved dogs for a week each summer and she exceeds our expectations in every way! From the moment Sammie stepped into our home, it was evident that our dogs were in capable and loving hands. Sammie's genuine affection for animals is obvious, creating an immediate sense of comfort for both us and our dogs. The level of professionalism and dedication displayed throughout the week truly set Sammie apart. Sammie went above and beyond to ensure the well-being of our dogs. Daily walks, playtime, and regular updates were just a few aspects of the comprehensive care they received. Sammie's attention to detail, including following specific feeding instructions and administering medication when needed, demonstrated a profound commitment to the overall health and happiness of our pets. Communication was seamless throughout the entire pet-sitting period. Sammie consistently provided us with detailed updates, including photos and anecdotes that showcased the genuine bond formed with our dogs. These thoughtful updates not only eased our minds but also allowed us to fully enjoy our time away, knowing our pets were thriving under Sammie's attentive care. Furthermore, we were pleasantly surprised to return home to a space that was not only tidy but also seemed to radiate positive energy—a testament to the love and respect Sammie showed towards our home environment. We wholeheartedly recommend Sammie for any pet sitting needs. Her passion for animals, coupled with unmatched professionalism, made our time away worry-free and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. Sammie's exceptional service has not only earned our trust but also our heartfelt gratitude. We are incredibly fortunate to have found such a reliable and caring pet sitter, and we will undoubtedly turn to Sammie for all our future pet care needs.”


19. Emily D.

“Emily is the sweetest person. I felt comfortable leaving her in my home and caring for my pets. I had previously been told my dogs are high maintenance, which they are, but it wasn't a problem for her. In addition, I had one dog with serious health problems (which I had to put down the day before she came) but she didn't shy away from that challenge. She sent pictures and cuddled with my dog on the couch. I would love to have her back.”


20. Danielle E.


“Fabulous! I highly recommend Daniel. Very prompt, and loving to my Louie❤️. She spent overnights and it couldn’t have gone better. Great with walking my dog ? too.”
