“Maura was a wonderful house/animal sitter. She gave us updates with pictures throughout our weeklong vacation & left our home in pristine condition. It’s always hard to leave your “babies” behind but having Maura there really gave us a sense of relief. We would highly recommend her and have already booked with her again!”


“We always hate leaving our dogs behind but Graci took such good care of them I would definitely have her come stay with them again. She was very responsive and sent many pictures! Thank you so much Graci!”


“Bralynn was amazing with our fur family. She treated them like family and they responded well to her. She stayed with them for the weekend and it was so nice knowing someone was with them. She was so great to us with our chaotic weekend changes also. Very flexible and helpful. The house looked the same as when we left. Thank you so much! Highly recommend and will definitely use again.”


“We couldn't be more grateful for Jessie! She took amazing care of our beloved shepherds and our home while we were on vacation. Before finding Jessie, my husband and I rarely traveled together—we're very particular about who we trust with our dogs and our home. Jessie exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we booked with her, communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pups were happy, relaxed, and in great hands. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing everything back home was being cared for so well. Jessie’s attention to detail, reliability, and genuine love for animals completely won us over. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and are already looking forward to future travel plans now that we have someone we trust completely. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Ella was amazing. She took my booking last minute and responded quickly. Ella showed up on time and seemed eager to meet our boys. You can tell Ella genuinely loves animals. Ella made us feel comfortable leaving the boys behind in her care. We came home to happy kids and the house just the way we left it. Ella kept in contact during her stay and sent us pictures and updates often. I would definitely book Ella again! Highly recommended!”
