Anastasiia is a wonderful dog sitter! This was our first time leaving Ruth with someone we didn’t know personally. She put us at ease from the second we met her. She sent us lots of pictures and updates about Ruth and left the house spotless. Ruth was very well cared for. Actually, I think Ruth loved Anastasiia so much she’d probably trade us in for her.

This was our first time having Emily watch our fur babies and we couldn't be happier! She was fantastic!! Just came home to find 3 very happy pups and she also left the house and plants in amazing shape. We were gone for 10 days and received lots of great updates and pictures. We felt super comfortable leaving the pack in her care and will definitely request her again in the future. Thanks so much Emily!!

Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog and our home while we were away for a wedding this weekend. She is a great communicator, updated us every day on how our dog was doing, and our dog was in great spirits when we returned! We will definitely ask her to watch our dog again in the future and would highly recommend to a friend.

Samantha was marvelous! I’m always nervous leaving my 9yo wheaten terrier, as she’s been known to get kind of cranky and snarly around other dogs. However, Samantha assured me she felt comfortable with my high-maintenance fuzzy friend. She sent regular photos and updates throughout my week-long trip, and always responded quickly whenever I’d reach out. My place was very clean when I returned and, most importantly, my dog seemed happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely reach out to Samantha again for upcoming trips!

Jorie was great with my anxious dog Bear! She was patient, calm, and gently assertive where needed and he felt very comfortable with her. He can be reactive with strangers and she handled him well. Bear fell into his normal routine quickly, and relaxed at home during the house sit.

I am so glad we found Marisa to watch our 19 year old kitty while we were away for a few days. My cat had never been watched by anyone outside the family, and with his age and medical needs I was nervous about leaving him alone. Upon arriving Marisa sent me a video of him crawling into her lap to cuddle, and I immediately felt so much better! Marisa took excellent care of my boy, made sure he got his medication on time, made sure he was well fed, and provided him with great company. I also really appreciate all the updates Marisa gave us throughout her stay, and that she checked in with us about his separation anxiety. After a long few days of travel we came home to a happy, healthy cat, and a clean apartment. Thank you again, Marisa!

Ahriel was communicative, kind, and took great care of my 3 animals on short notice - including a large senior dog and a toothless cat! She asked thorough questions when interviewing her which was reassuring. Since the stay was short notice, she was unable to meet the animals before hand or get a lay of the land (confusing apartment building), but did an incredible job with everything no less. Would recommend her and will hopefully get to use her in the future!

This was my first time booking with Mairead so I was a little nervous, but she quickly put my mind at ease. She took the time to do a meet & greet and made an effort to learn my pup’s routine beforehand. She consistently kept me updated while I was away. I never had to wonder how my pup was doing because she was very proactive with communication. She also went above and beyond with his meals, knowing he doesn’t usually like to eat when I’m away and made great effort to ensure he was comfortable and eating. I also came home to my place exactly as I left it. I highly recommend Mairead to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Sofiia truly saved the day for us! We had a pet sitter back out at the very last minute right before an international trip, and she stepped up immediately. She came over for a quick meet-and-greet the same day, and we instantly felt at ease leaving our two dogs, Dre and Rito, with her. Our pups are Covid dogs with some anxiety and reactivity issues, but she handled their routine perfectly, followed all of our apartment instructions seamlessly, and gave them the exact TLC and company they needed. Communication was fantastic, and it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be booking her again!

Niayla was wonderful. It was my first time leaving my cat, Camille, at home by herself for two weeks and Niayla clearly gave her so much love, attention, and cuddles while I was gone. It really put my mind at ease to have someone in my home who so obviously truly cared for Camille. I could tell in all the photos and from the updates that they really enjoyed each other’s company and could not be more grateful to have found Niayla on this app!
