“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”
“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”

“Chrissy is a friendly, reliable, considerate, and caring pet sitter who goes above and beyond to make sure a pet is well cared for! I could not have asked for better. Chrissy watched our almost 2 year old rescue whippet mix Honey, and Honey had a great time over at Chrissy’s home. Stellar!!!”
“Going out of the country for 5 days had me so nervous but Samantha provided plenty of updates with pictures and videos. My dog arrived home so calm and content. I will 100% be booking with Samantha in the future!”
“Chris was a wonderful sitter. With Chris, you also get Jia, his girlfriend, as a bonus second sitter who loves dogs. Bentley made immediate friends upon the preliminary meet and greet. The couple has no pets currently, so they were able to give Bentley loads of personal attention and play time. Chris lives near Washington Park, so Bentley had plenty of grassy area to run around and meet other dogs. Chris and Jia worked with our high energy, young pyredoodle, so Bentley would respond to commands more readily. We highly recommend booking with Chris.”

“Richelle has been amazing. She met with myself and Eevee and she was professional, loving accommodating. She understood what Eevee's needs were and was able to explain them to me. Helped with Eevee trying to socialize with her own dogs. Her home was clean, serene and definitely accepting. I will book her again.”
“I highly recommend Amber! My dog was so well taken care of and made to feel right at home! Many thanks to you, Amber! Lily will see you again!”
“Tatiana was fantastic. She is very responsive, and sent me pictures which was reassuring that Mo was having a great time. Will definitely book her in the future.”
