1. Isabel M.
“Isabel was so patient and sweet with getting to know Reggie and making him comfortable with her. This was her second time meeting him and he sat at her feet and licked her hand! He was so comfortable he just went to sleep when we went out and left him with Isabel.”
2. Alexandrea O.
“My wife and I had Alex stay at our place overnight to watch our cats and she did a wonderful job! She was very attentive and an active messenger for an anxious cat dad like myself. Our normally shy and nervous cat even came out to see her! Highly recommended her to come care for your animals. She left the place looking exactly how it was before we left :) If you need a sitter, Alex is your girl.”
3. Yuka I.
“Yuka’s the best! She took amazing care of my dog, cat and house. My super active dog got nearly daily trips to the dog park, and my cat got all the scritches. On top of that, she was incredibly responsive and easy to coordinate with when my travel plans changed and when I needed something delivered. 13/10, would recommend.”
4. Samantha C.
“Samantha was fantastic!! I needed someone last minute to stay with my chihuahua Chico for the day and evening and she responded right away and took perfect care of him the whole day! I would highly recommend Samantha! Chico had a great time! We will definitely book her again ☺️”
5. Carley C.
“We had Carley stay and take care of our senior cat for the second time. Just a short stay this time but she always does an amazing job and takes really good care of our old man. Thankful she is available and willing to take care of him which gives us a lot less stress when we have to travel.”
6. Julia P.
“Julia has been just wonderful with Larry, and we look forward to many more visits from her! She is truly caring and thoughtful about animals, very receptive to Larry's crazy complicated care routine, and just generally seems very present with Larry and has a wonderful positive attitude about the whole enterprise. Bravo!”
7. Chase C.
“Chase walked my dog for an entire month after I had surgery this year, and was such a life saver. So reliable, he showed up exactly on time and had a great attitude. I completely recommend Chase, he's trustworthy, kind, and loves dogs.”
8. Jenny Y.
“Latte loved Jenny. I arrived home and was greeted by a happy, affectionate, playful cat. My holiday was enhanced by a steady stream of creative kitty pix and videos. Jenny is a gem. Natural grace. A true cat whisperer and animal lover.”
9. Anna L.
“Anna did amazing. Our young golden retriever puppy can be a handful. She played with him and kept him busy. :) I would definitely recommend her.”
10. Katia T.
“Katia took great care of my dog while I was out of town for a week. I highly recommend!”
11. Monica E.
“Monica cared for my dog and cat while I was away visiting family, and she did so with such ease and care. She was such a great friend to both animals, giving them the love and care they need, especially my sweet and snuggly little chihuahua. She was great about asking clarifying questions to make sure she was following care instructions properly, and I returned home to an incredibly clean home with clean sheets and towels. A highly recommended sitter!”
12. Jean R.
“As soon as Annie met Jean, she immediately loved her and I knew she was in good hands. Jean is very empathetic and understanding of the challenge in leaving your baby with someone else, but I knew everything was good with her. Jean was a great communicator, and I loved getting the updates. This is the most relaxed I think I have ever been leaving her so truly so grateful 💜💜”
13. Elizabeth R.
“Elizabeth is super friendly and sent regular updates, pics, and videos of my cat while I was away. She is also was comfortable giving insulin injections which was a plus. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
14. Saundrina S.
“Drina is the best!! Absolutely stellar pet sitting service! From the moment I contacted her, I knew my babies were in good hands. Drina went above and beyond to ensure my pets were not only cared for but loved and entertained. Daily updates and photos kept my mind at ease while I was away. I returned to happy, healthy pets who seemed to have had a vacation of their own. I cannot recommend Drina highly enough – reliable, compassionate, and truly the best in the business!”
15. Carlos R.
“Carlos is so gorgeous d with my animals! I’ve been having him per sit for me while I’m at work and my pup loves seeing him every time he comes through the front door. Highly recommend him to take care of your fur babies.”
16. Lailah W.
“Lailah is an excellent dog and house sitter! Sent pictures to us every day, did all things I asked on list especially calming pills for numerous thunderstorms while we were gone! Left my plants watered and house immaculate. Would most definitely recommend Lailah! My dog agrees 🐾”
17. Patrick O.
“Patrick is the best and I will continue going to him for my pet sitting needs! Super communicative and always sends me tons of updates on my boy! He’s professional but also extremely personable, and I feel at ease whenever he’s with my dog. Thanks again as always, Patrick!”
18. Michelle S.
“Michelle is an absolute JOY to work with. I always have a hard time leaving my dog and she made it effortless. I didn't have a single worry while I was gone - Michelle communicated often and sent pictures and updates. She was so patient with my many, many instructions and concerns. And best of all, my dog LOVES her! I returned to a happy and healthy dog and a spotless home. Thank you for everything, Michelle - we can't wait to see you again!”
19. Darren W.
“Darren is absolutely my first choice always in looking after my dog Cooper. Not only do I 100% trust him but it actually brings me joy knowing Coops is with someone that loves him and other dogs too. Whenever anyone is looking for a dogwalker/sitter I never hesitate to refer them to Darren. :)”
20. Rebecca E.
“Rebecca is my go to friend for cat sitting while I’m out of town. I’ve trusted her with my house keys and entry codes to check in on my cat, Pookie. Rebecca comes on an agreed schedule, tends to food/litter box concerns, and even spends extra time loving on Pookie. She’s also a dog mom of 3, so I know to call on Rebecca when I want more for my pet than just the basics. She provides the necessary human interaction and above and beyond care that pet owners look for in our absence.”
