3. Tara M.

“My dogs (who can be shy with new people) immediately took to her. She is clearly a lover of animals and she took great care of my home and pups while I was away for the weekend. She left the house clean and tidy. Clear communication and sent great photos. Thank you, Tara! Hope to book with you again soon.”

6. Amber M.

“Amber did such a great job! She was early, great at communicating, incredibly respectful of our home and took great care of our girls. I’ve had some really bad experiences and I can honestly say I was relaxed during our trip and not nervous about how our first experience would turn out because of her excellent communication. We can finally go on vacation without worrying!”

“Amaya was such a wonderful sitter to my dog Zelee! She was warm, communicative, flexible, respectful, and attentive to Zelee’s needs as well as my own. I would definitely recommend her and book her again for a future housesit!”

“Brigit was great! I would definitely recommend her for cat care. She gave me updates and my cat and home seemed great when I returned. Thank you!”


9. Kaylin W.

“Kay is very committed to her job. She went the extra mile to care for and play with my cat. When I got home, I had a very happy boy waiting for me. That hasn’t always happened with other sitters. Kay was also concerned with the care of my home and did a very good job of plant watering, linen washing etc so I had very little chores waiting for me when I got home. Kay was very responsive to my short notice for a house sitter. I look forward to using her again.”


10. Julie K.

12. Vincent W.

“Vincent is the absolute best. He is calm, cool, collected and caring. He was flexible with my changing schedule (a few times), and was kind and understanding. He asked great questions about the dog (Skipper), beforehand. He sent me updates each day, and even came up with ideas for how to better get Skipper to take his medicine. I feel so comfortable and happy knowing Vincent was watching my dog (and my house). He is excellent, trustworthy and an all-around cool dude. I can't recommend him highly enough.”

I was away for 2 weeks in Asia and got consistent updates on my baby girl, including photos of every walk as well as good questions on a tummy irritation she has. Rachel was so thorough, and also an amazing houseguest! My place looked cleaner than I left it!!!! I highly recommend Rachel and will be using her again. I think my dog already misses her!!”
