Katherine did an excellent job watching my 3 dogs while we were away for 5 days. She kept me updated during the week which was very appreciated. And our house was so clean when we got home which was awesome! I will definitely use her again!

Zayda is the one you want to call if you have to leave your precious pets and know they are in capable and loving hands. My dogs and cat love her and her dogs. She is responsible, knowledgeable, trustworthy and an excellent communicator. I always feel bad leaving my pets but with Zayda sitting, I know I can enjoy my vacation.

Maggie is such a nice easy going person. I instantly liked Maggie and felt at ease with her with our dog and home. Our dog is very skittish and she liked Maggie from the moment she walked in. Maggie sent text and pictures throughout the evening. Our dog was happy when we got home… Maggie is a great pet sitter and I highly recommend ♥️

Alyssa was very responsive to questions, she came out to meet our two dogs prior to booking, she sent picture's and updates on how the dogs were doing during the week which was great. She took wonderful care of our dogs in our home while we were gone for 10 days. I would recommend Alyssa to take care of your pets anytime!

This is the second time Denise stayed with Charley. We were gone a lot longer and I think was pretty confused and frustrated but Denise is pretty fantastic with him. As long as she is willing to take our monster, we'll have her do it every time. Hopefully he's a little better puppy next time.

Aida was absolutely wonderful! She watched our great dane at our house for just over two weeks while we traveled abroad. She showed up before we left to make sure everything was set. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates as well as handled household issues without needing directions. Our dog was well cared for with walks and snuggles the whole time. Needless to say, we look forward to having Aida sit again.

Shauna is wonderful around pets! She seems to absolutely loves animals and is one of the only people I've met who cares enough to give her cats dedicated outside leash-walks. She's a very responsible caregiver and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Danielle did a great job. We were gone for 10 days and we had limited cell phone service. My dog has epilepsy and seizures are brought on from stress. So, I was beyond worried about leaving. I had Danielle come over several times before we left to make sure my dog was ok with her (and yes, I paid her to do that, but, doing one meet and greet for free is one thing, coming over several times more is another thing. So, I told her I would pay her to do this.) She spent quite a bit of time with me before I left going over my dog’s many different medications, emergency meds, procedures, etc. I made sure she understood that if a seizure lasted more than 5 minutes that she would need to drive to the U of M ER at 3am if she needed to. It was way more responsibility than a regular dog sitting visit would be. Sure enough, my dog had a seizure on day three. Danielle handled it perfectly, gave her the emergency drugs, and sent me videos of my dog afterwards to show me that she had recuperated and was ok, etc. That eased my mind a lot. (Of course, I was still a basket case during my trip worrying about my dog, but,that wasn’t because of Danielle, it was just because I was gone and didn’t want anything serious to happen to my dog without me being there.) Danielle was very patient with my numerous texts every day to check on her, and she sent photos whenever I asked. When I came home the house was cleaner than when I left it, and she had made me a cute paw print thingy of my dog’ paw! I had her stay right up until I was pulling into town to make sure my dog was ok. She had a lot of responsibility when she was here, and she handled it well. Obviously I give her my recommendation!

Fred and his family provided excellent care for our young energetic dog and our 3 month old puppy. They came back tired and happy from playing! He was responsive to our needs and was very flexible in accommodating what we requested. We have already rebooked with him. We will be definitely be in touch when we visit our family in Minnesota.

Sav did an excellent job watching our Husky and Australian Shepherd for a long weekend at our house! She sent tons of updates and pictures and our dogs looked well loved and happy when we returned ? Plus the house was clean when we returned home from our vacation (when normally there would be toys all over) so that was a plus! Thanks Sav!
