Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!

Beth was wonderful tending to the two very different needs of our two cats - one very shy that needed lots of space, and one very active teenager that needed lots of attention. She left our house in immaculate condition. Highly recommend and would love to have her stay with our cats again in the future!

Definitely 5 stars I couldn’t ask for any better experience of someone watching my dogs. I would get pictures and also one of my dogs is diabetic and has to be given medication on a daily basis I would definitely take my dogs back and I plan to when I go back on vacation.

Allison is the BEST pet sitter ever. I have had many over the years. She loves to sit with my Tessa and just shower love on her. She is also really good at getting my animals to take their medications. I have a geriatric dog who has laser treatments for arthritis and needs to take about 18 pills a day and somehow Allison manages to find all the ones that my dog thinks she has hidden after she "pretends" to take them. I have Allison sleep over at my house when I am away for business as well. One time I was in the hospital for a stay that was supposed to be 3 days that ended up being 12. Allison made sure that my dog was taken care of even though I didn't have it scheduled with her and I know she was busy at the time. We also have a very fussy cat who makes a mess when she feels neglected. She has never once retaliated against us upon our returns from vacations when Allison is on the job. I trust her inherently with my animals.

I have known Austin for over a decade and have witnessed his kindness, loyalty, and hard work. He has volunteered for numerous opportunities at our church and attended multiple mission trips. He is always willing to do what is asked and carries himself responsibly and with a great attitude. Having Austin on any team is a bonus to the other members and it is without hesitation that I highly recommend him!

I have known Kara for over 8 years and during that time have seen her work with a number of pets (mostly dogs) of our families as well as others. She has an exceptional talent to bond with animals including some that are not as inclined to build trust. We have dog who is very standoffish and she can actually get him to do many things my wife and myself cannot. I would do not hesitate to recommend Kara to work with even the most challanging pets. As trite as the term can be she really is a "pet whisperer".

Megan was spectacular, stepping in with very short notice to dog sit my puppy for a week when my original sitter canceled a few days before I left. She took very good care of my dog a provided some very cute photos of the fun they were having

Isaiah was great with our rambunctious and needy dog. He spent a great deal of time with him which is what our dogs needs. He kept up posted with texts and pictures, asked questions when he wasn’t sure about something which I appreciated. Very reliable and took care of our mail, garbage and plants while we were gone for a week. I would definitely recommend him!

Elyza was great! She stayed with our dog in our house for the weekend while we were out of town. She sent several photos and updates about how he was doing. When we returned, we found the house exactly as we left it. She kept him on his usual routine and administered his medication as directed. We'll definitely be booking Elyza to dog sit in our home the next time we go out of town. We also highly recommend her to others in the area that may be looking for an in-home dog sitter!

We highly recommend Riley. Our little Calli Has some anxiety issues, but she seemed to relax and accept Riley easily. She was in excellent spirits when we returned home, and was well cared for. Riley’s knowledge of pets and her love of them is obvious.

My wife and I heartily recommend Joanne for a house and / or pet-sitting engagement. We had high expectations based on her on-line information and also were very pleased upon meeting her before the start of our time away. My wife and I had the opportunity to travel to Rome in January 2025 to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, and did not want the occasion to be marred in any way by house or pet-sitting problems. Joanne proved to be reliable and very clean and upon our return it was difficult to tell that someone else had been in the house, except that our three pets had been well-taken care of and she had kept our bird-feeders tended to. The house was clean and orderly and you could tell that a thoughtful adult had been taking care of things. While we were away she communicated sufficiently so that we were informed but not bothered. She was quick to respond when we checked on things. It was nice to leave our home and pets in the care of a more mature person and have no surprises or drama. We had always kenneled our dogs before when traveling, and this was a better experience all-around. We heartily recommend Joanne for a house or pet-sitting job (with the singular exception that it might make it harder for us to be able to engage her next time we travel!)

Hope was incredible with our two dogs during our family Va vacation. One of our dogs even had issues with separation anxiety, and Hope did awesome caring for our boy and easing my worries while we were away. She was also a great houseguest as we could barely tell anyone was staying at the house. She was so clean, and considerate- took out her trash and kept the house so clean. We’re so grateful for Hope, and impressed by her. She genuinely loves animals and it shows in how she takes care of them! Such a wonderful person and doggie nanny! 💕
