2. Aimee J.
“Aimee took the best care of our Brody for an overnight stay- she sent great updates and gave me so much peace of mind while we were away! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter. Thank you Aimee!!”
3. Aisha H.
“Aisha was absolutely amazing with our 3 huskies! She stayed for a week (over the 4th of July holiday) and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was very communicative (sent pictures and updates daily), diligent with our senior dogs and their medicine, and on top of being amazing with our dogs, our house was in absolute pristine condition when we returned. Overall we are very pleased and can’t wait to book Aisha again!”

8. Kate M.
“Dog owners, you'll love to have Kate as a caregiver because of her thoughtfulness, integrity, and positive attitude! I've known her for many years, and she's my absolute role model for a responsible, resourceful, and reliable human being. Beyond that, she's engaging, personable, and caring. I don't think twice about having her care for any of my pets! Kate provides the best care to pets, so owners can have peace of mind!”

10. Jessica S.
“She took great care of our two girls wonderfully. One of our dogs got an upset tummy and she was great about helping clean up the mess. She’s in the military. I feel silly for not thanking her for that service also.”
11. Casey M.
“Casey was great! She is super personable and very willing to help you with your pets when you need it. She took care of my 7 pets, both cats and dogs, extremely well. She was able to walk and feed my dogs and play with them daily as well as give medications properly. My cats loved her and she handled my complicated automatic litter box with no problem! All my animals were very well taken care of while I was away and I would absolutely recommend Casey for anyone in need of a sitter. I will be using Casey in the future and you should too!”

15. Destiny R.
“I absolutely LOVE Destiny! Being a pet sitter myself and honestly kind of picky pet parent she will always be my first pick to watch my kiddos. Destiny goes above and beyond to provide the best care possible. You can just tell she truly has a love for animals. She's super sweet and not only dependable but also punctual. She's proficient and I love how thorough she is when caring for my pets. She's so gentle and patient with all of my them and even gives extra attention to one of my more anxious fur babies. She also made sure to send plenty of updates throughout their stay. Saying Destiny is amazing is an understatement and I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs their furry ones cared for!”

“Tiffany is so sweet! My Bailey took to her immediately! I definitely will be a returned customer.”
