1. Lizz R.

“Best dog sitter I’ve ever had! Lizz was really great and very observant. She noticed a tick on my dogs leg and removed it while asking for my permission while I was away. She went the extra mile to take care of my dog and I will definitely be asking her to sit again in the future. Highly recommended for pet sitting.”


2. Paulina V.

“Paulina has been an excellent caretaker!! She has gone above and beyond every step of the way. She did not miss a single detail when it came to caring for our four pets, and by the end of the trip our dog and cats were very comfortable with her. She took nice pictures and kept us updated during our trip and at no time did we feel like we didn’t know how our pets were doing. We would definitely recommend Paulina to anyone and we look forward to booking her again in the future!”

16. Sene V.

“Kayli was a lifesaver and an amazing help for my boys!! They loved her and she went above and beyond to accommodate my little critters! I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future if she is still available and willing to watch my fur babies again. Thank you so so much Kayli!!!”


18. Jean R.

“Jean is the best! She will treat your pets like her own. Always on time, provides great updates on the pets, and communicates anything out of the ordinary. This is the second time she has looked after our two cats and she's been nothing but great. I highly recommend Jean!”


19. Flannery E.


“Flannery was easy to communicate with, reliable, and made the process of checking in on my cat while I was away for the weekend a breeze! I appreciated her detailed notes of her drop ins and the photos she included as well. Although the drop in visits were only 30mins, she was able to feed him, clean his litterbox, play with him and pet him during that time. It was so great knowing my cat was in good hands and would be safe, fed, kept busy and in a clean space while I was away. Would definitely recommend Flannery!”


20. Sonja H.

“Sonja is the best! I’m so happy I found her! She visited my cat pickles daily, took care of her AND did all of her favorite things every day. She sent a summary and pictures each day. Pickles herself gave Sonja a GLOWING review when we got home (14 out of 10). They are besties now. My kitty is so happy and comfortable and very well taken care of! I am so grateful my baby was in the best hands.”
