“Emma was so caring, friendly, and attentive! Her love and care for animals is immediately evident, which made me feel so much more at ease with being away from my cats. And I really appreciated her communication, updates, photos, and general professionalism! I honestly couldn't recommend her enough, and will be contacting her again whenever I need a sitter.”
“Omolara took great care of my senior dog during the week I was away. She provided exercise, feeding, and clean-up of the space, when my dog couldn’t quite hold it. I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Anika do a walk-in visit for my dog, Willow, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the moment I contacted Anika, her professionalism and genuine care for animals were evident. Anika was exceptionally attentive, making sure she understood Willow's needs and preferences. She took the time to play with Willow and kept her engaged. She sent multiple pictures throughout the visit, capturing Willow's excitement and happiness. It was heartwarming to see how much fun Willow was having. What stood out the most was how happy Willow was to see her . Anika instantly connected with Willow. I could see the joy on Willow's face in the pictures, and it was clear she felt comfortable and well-cared for. I highly recommend Anika for her exceptional service. Knowing Willow is in such capable and loving hands gives me great peace of mind. Thank you for making Willow's visit so special!”
“Bonnie was great with my dog, she was right on time for his visits and I could tell from the photos she would send that he was having fun. Would definitely reach back out to her again for taking care of my dog.”
“My cat, Duke, is a very suspicious cat and can be difficult to get close to. Michelle was able to get Duke to jump on her lap to be brushed and pet. I was very happy to see Duke get the attention he needs.”
“Bethany is a great dog sitter reliable and dependable. She is very kind to our shy and anxious fur baby Mia. We are repeat customers. Highly recommend booking with her for your dog sitting needs.”
“You could not ask for a more kind, loving sitter/walker then Stefanie R. We will definitely ask her to stay with our pups again. She is good with people as well as dogs. She made us feel safe and relaxed to go away knowing our dogs and our house were on good hands. A++++ Greg”
“We were away for over a week and she took great care of our two cats with twice-daily visits. She sent photo updates, was very responsive and easy to coordinate with, and our cats took a quick liking to her. She also brought in packages and took care of a a fes cat messes for us. It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands. We’d definitely book with her again!”

“Savannah was great, she was on time every day, took lots of good pics to share with us and rolled with a few last minute requests without any issue. I would definitely recommend and re book her.”
“Andrea was amazing! I hope to continue booking her for our cats. She went beyond in every sense: she communicated with us to troubleshoot challenges, changes or kittens refusing food, as well as communicated timings of things and provided super informative rover cards with photos. I absolutely loved working with her for our trips and our cats are all doing great upon return! Everything in the house looked great too. Highly recommend :)”

Karla was incredibly kind, attentive, and went above and beyond while caring for my cat. My cat absolutely loved her, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was very responsive, paid close attention to detail, and kept me updated throughout my vacation, which really helped ease my worries. I truly appreciated the level of care and compassion she showed. I’m looking forward to rebooking with her in the future!
This was my 2nd time booking Hailee & she went above and beyond! When she arrived at my house, one of the smoke detectors was going off and she made sure the house was safe before leaving my pets at home alone. She was calm and professional in dealing with me and that unexpected situation. She takes wonderful pictures and truly seems to care about my pets. I recommend her highly!
Rebecca is awesome! She is very communicative, pays great attention to details, and super sweet too. This is our second time booking with her and it’s been a blessing to have someone we trust and feel comfortable with watching our cats while we are out of town. I would book her more often but I only really go away once a year. She is the first person I’d think of if I need a sitter for any of my cats or dogs.
