2. Victoria B.

“Victoria did a great job watching my two cats for a week! She was very communicative and the cats were very comfortable with her. I’d absolutely have her catsit again!”


3. Alana C.

“Alana was great! She stayed at our home for a week while we were away and cared for our boxer and other assorted small animals. She gave thorough updates daily, and we returned home to a happy pup and and clean and well cared for house. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


4. Maybelline C.

“Maybelline is the best! She is prompt, responsive, and loves our dog like her own. We were so lucky to have her this week. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


5. Isis R.


“Isis is a great dogsistter! She was amazing with my puppy. She’s very safe and knows what she is doing! She’s sweet and caring. You should book with her, because she is excellent!”


6. Pamela N.

“Pam is awesome! Very responsive and an excellent communicator. I was nervous about leaving our kitten in someone else’s care but she put us right at ease and took excellent care of our kitty and our home. I would love to have her take care of our pets again anytime!!”


7. Kelcee G.

“Kelcee, is definitely an animal lover, I know my pets were in safe hands and did an amazing job leaving how the house was left before she came!!!”


8. Lily R.

“Lily was great! Came through on a last minute request and was so good with my dog. She also extended her visit to stay with Spiorad when she was acting weird which I so appreciated. We’re going to be repeat customers!”


9. Sara D.

“Sara took wonderful care of Charlie and I would certainly leave him with her again. Even though he can be shy, Charlie took to Sara the first time he met her which put me right at ease. It was easy to communicate with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of them together. When I returned it was obvious that Charlie was well taken care of and that my condo was left as clean and neat as I left it!!”


10. Lawrence L.

“I am so very grateful that Larry was able to stay at our home and take care of our cat and dog over the holidays — with a *very* last-minute booking, no less! Our cat clearly really trusted him (which doesn’t always happen so quickly) and I really appreciated the efforts he took to play with the cat. Larry also went above and beyond in making sure that my very active dog got plenty of exercise. He took her to a variety of dog parks for hours at a time and I think she was living a much better life with Larry than she does with me! :) I got great updates when I was away and the house was clean and welcoming when I returned. I didn’t get to meet Larry (and Betty!) until the end of their stay, which further speaks to their flexibility — their original “meet and greet” was with the pet sitters I had staying at my home right before them. They were so friendly and professional, and had clearly bonded with my pets — I’d certainly recommend them to others. THANK YOU!”


11. Salina B.


“We hired Salina as an in house cat sitter during our 8 day vacation to the cape. We had no idea at the time that we had found a sitter that did anything but sit. She played with ‘Roosevelt’ with toys she purchased herself; she showered our cat with love recognizing his need for affection and at the same time, showed respect for his individuality and need for his own space and routine. Best of all, in Salina’s communication with us throughout our vacation she described a real bonding and friendship she and Roosevelt formed. We could see this for ourselves in the photos she sent us. My husband and I would not hesitate for a moment to place Roosevelt again entirely in Salina’s capable hands.”


12. Paige S.

“Paige was amazing! She met us at our hotel in Bethesda and stayed with our puppy for over 7 hours so that we could attend a wedding nearby. She sent photos throughout that time to let us know how he was doing and took him on multiple walks. Our little pupper had a great time!”


13. James H.
“James is both a responsible and caring pet sitter & dog walker. James is great with animals and not only provides great care but goes the extra mile to understand pets and their needs. He has taken care of our family dog Riley for years. We needed some extra help when we first got Riley as a puppy and James has been a great help. Even when Riley was a puppy and not well trained, James had a lot of patience with Riley and has always been flexible to dog sit or walk him when we need. He is super responsible and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a pet sitter or dog walker!”


14. Sarah D.


“Our dog was very pleased with the care she received from Sarah. We were very happy with her responsiveness and attentiveness with sending daily updates while we were gone.”


15. Erin T.

“Erin is fantastic! Good communicator (we love those pix of Finn while we’re away!), able to give Finn some meds, and also flexible when our internet went out for two days. She left the house immaculate. We will call rely on her again! (Tipped in person in case the algorithm does something with that).”


16. Michael L.
“Mike just has a way with animals. When we go away he is my pet sitter. My dog just gets so excited when she sees him. I feel comfortable leaving my dog with Mike.”


17. Aly C.
“My pitbull, Ace, is 7 years old. Aly has been taking care of him, whenever I am not in town. She has been nurturing & loving ❤️. I would not trade her, for the world! Please take care of her! I wouldn't want her in the wrong hands, because she deserves a fair chance to succeed. This, will definitely help her on that journey.”


18. Alison D.
“Alison D. is one of the most caring and responsible people I know, and any pet would be lucky to have her as a sitter or walker! She has a natural way with animals, always making them feel comfortable, loved, and safe. Whether it's long walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, Alison goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and well cared for. She has cared for my pets multiple times, and I’ve always been amazed at the level of love and attention she gives them. She treats them like her own—making sure they get plenty of exercise, cuddles, and the best care possible. I’ve come home to happy, relaxed pets every time, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in her hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands and loves animals, Alison is the perfect choice! She is a truly amazing person and I can't recommend her enough!”


19. Avery O.

“Avery was great watching our dog Luna at our home! She arrived punctually and kept our puppy happy and healthy! The house was perfectly clean when we arrived back from our trip and Luna was very happy! Could not recommend more highly!”


20. Karima R.

“Karima was great with our 2 dogs! Spent lots of time with them, took great care of them in the heat and they seemed to love her! Great communication”
