“Jennifer took amazing care of our senior dog and overgrown kitten while we were away for the week. Her passion for animals is evident, and she's a neat and thoughtful house guest.

5. Elvia C.
“Elvia is amazing! All I could say is wow after getting home and reading handwritten report cards for all three dogs and my cat individually. She has great attention to detail, care, and professionalism and is adaptable under tight time frame. She sent me pictures every day and spent time to get to know each of my animals so kindly and professionally. Very impressed 100/10!!!”

“I’ve know Katie since she was a kid and my puppy grew up with her , now being 11 yrs old she needs someone to stay over night when I’m away just in case she has to go out, so she has become my go to sitter , my dog loves her ! Katie is so good with her, on time , and. Responsible ! My dog can also be a little difficult walking past or near other dogs but I completely trust Katie in all situations with her , I wouldn’t want anyone else !”
8. Lisa G.
“We couldn’t be happier with Lisa as our pet sitter! Our dogs, Wesley and Zeppelin, absolutely love when she comes to watch them. Recently, she stayed at our home for six days while we were out of town and provided daily photos and updates, which we really appreciated. Knowing that our dogs were in their own home, being cared for by someone so attentive and reliable, gave us complete peace of mind. Lisa truly goes above and beyond—we highly recommend her!”
9. Shannon T.
“Highly recommend Shannon, she was so easy to communicate with, took care of our sweet dog as if she was her own, send updates throughout the day and was generally wonderful. Our dog was happy and calm at the end of every day she spent with Shannon. So grateful for Shannon and excited to work with her again!”
10. maria alexandra v.
“Unbelievably wonderful experience! Alexa was AH-MAY-ZING. My senior dog, fluffy, was in loving ❤️ and capable hands as was our cat (who automatically took to loving Alexa right away! Rolled over and let her pick him up within two hours). The care and love she showered over our animals was so unbelievable and so appreciated that my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend away (we loved all the pictures and videos she sent). I would highly recommend Alexa to everyone who wants a reliable, trustworthy and sweet care person. ✨️😊🎉”
11. Jess B.
“Jess did a great job sitting for our dog for a week while we were out of town. We and our dog could not have been more happy with the experience. Highly recommend Jess.”
12. Nathalie M.
“Nathalie has been incredible, we couldn’t have been luckier to have found her! Our dogs don’t welcome just anybody into our house and needed some time to get to know Nathalie. She dedicated her spare time to get to know all three of them and they just love her! I have so much admiration for the efforts Nathalie put in with the dogs and our family, we appreciate her so much! I didn’t think we’d find someone who loved our dogs as much as we do! I can’t recommend Nathalie enough. She is a truly special ❤️”
13. Mariana G.
“Mariana helped us with a late need for dog sitting needs. She took good care of our 2 dogs, one elderly (meds, diapers, carrying in/out of house) the other with a hunger to play ball which she enjoyed doing with him.”
14. Thais D.
“Thank you Thais for taking such good care of our kitties this whole week!”
15. Jessica S.
“Jessica was outstanding. Super friendly during our meet and greet. Our trio of two cats and a pup took to her right away and we never looked back. Jessica sent tons of great updates via cute photos and videos, she left our home in pristine condition and we would gladly ask her to sit with us again without hesitation.”
16. Devora L.
“Devora was fantastic!!”
17. Hanaya D.
“Hanaya did an excellent job. She was a clear communicator and took perfect care of my pup, and left my home immaculate. Would highly recommend her!”
18. Chloe K.
“Chloe stayed with our 2 dogs, Finn & Ally for 3 nights and did an amazing job! Ally is a rescue pup and very skittish, but Chloe was able to win her over! We also have 3 fish tanks and a newt that she took very good care of over the weekend. I highly recommend Chloe for anyone who needs a pet sitter! She is awesome!”
19. Alexandra T.
“So happy with Alexandra! She sent regular updates with photos and videos and our little Kiwi was very well taken care of! We will definitely book her again soon!”
