Darya stayed at my house with my dog and it was wonderful! She provided regular updates and took great care of my dog and home. My boy can be nervous and take time to warm up to new people and she was kind and gentle with him. Thanks again Darya!

Aleksandra watched my dog and cat during the 4th of July holiday at my house and it went spectacularly. She's punctual, replies promptly, and truly cares about the pets she's caring for. I would highly recommend her and very likely book her again.

I AM SO THANKFUL FOR ARIANNA. A pipe broke in my house during her stay (she did nothing wrong. Just old pipes) and she took care of it. She spoke to management of my apartment and the maintenance personal, she moved my furniture to protect my things, and communicated/ took pictures of everything. I’m so thankful she was there. I don’t know what we would do without her.

Thanh-Mai was absolutely incredible! We have a very anxious and nervous Dalmatian so we weren’t sure how our Ella would do for a full 8 days with someone new in her space but she had a blast! Thanh-Mai was open to multiple meet-ups so Ella could warm up to her. By the second visit Ella was stoked to see her which really eased any worries we had about leaving her. We received pictures and updates all throughout the week with careful attention to Ella’s feelings and reactions. Thanh-Mai stayed in our apartment to keep Ella in her usual environment and when we got home she had left the place so clean and neat! It made for such a nice arrival after two days of flying. We couldn’t recommend Thanh-Mai more! Thank you for creating such a safe space for our puppy!

We couldn't be happy and satisfied by our experience with Ankita and Karthik. There was timely and clear communication prior to our trip. Both of them provided detailed personal and scheduled updates with pictures each day. They kept is informed on how everything was going, an update on their schedule and how they were managing the pet schedules every day. We were able to have a stress free family vacation knowing our home and our pets were in responsible, caring hands. They are definitely on our list to call again when we need someone to watch over the pups! Thanks again!!

Hillary was fantastic with our Rottie “Bo”. He has separation anxiety issues, and she was very sweet and loving with him. Even sat on the floor with him to help him get to know her. He had a great time with her..We will always request her when traveling to the SD area.

Ericka has taken care of my shihtzu Calvin many times! He loves staying with her. She is so sweet and so good with animals including dogs and cats. She makes sure Calvin is well taken care of including taking him for walks, feeding him, administering his seizure medications and doing his eyedrops. She can do it all! I have left my dog in her care while I went on a long vacation and they were safe and well cared for with her. I would trust all my pets with her.
