Akiko took great care of our dog while we were away for a few days during the holidays. We felt very comfortable with her watching Marty and staying in our home. She sent frequent updates and even left us a cute Polaroid of Marty. Definitely recommend and hope to work with her again soon!

David was an incredible sitter for Jordy. He was conscientious, communicative, took great care of our dog, and left our home cleaner than he found it. I highly recommend.

Ashley took care of our two dogs while we were on a work trip and was extremely communicative and responsive. She thoughtfully and proactively asked about all the potential details — whether that was with the pups and their needs/preferences, taking care of the place, and scheduling/communication with us. We've booked her twice now and would do so again!

About: I grew up taking care of 4 dogs and 13 cats and have always enjoyed getting to know them as individuals with different personalities. I am very familiar with their body language, what they try to communicate to us through that, and their needs in general. I have an extremely flexible schedule, as I am a self-employed full time photographer. My schedule changes week to week but I am usually available during the day when a lot of people are at work. I have a 6 foot pop-up enclosure that can be used when there needs to be a separation between animals. It has a covering on the top of it too.

Sammy was wonderful with my dog Rosa, and took her on long walks to explore the city. She was punctual, communicative, and provided lots of pictures, and made the overall experience seamless. Rosa will look forward to having her dog sit again.

Gurkan was the best pet sitter I’ve ever worked with! He is extremely responsive, flexible, friendly, and sent me frequent updates and photos. My cat Bug absolutely adored him. He really helped me out too when I needed to extend the dates. He took such great care of my cat and my home. He is extremely trustworthy and I would 10/10 ask Gurkan to pet sit for my kitty anytime. Thank you again!

Cindy did an incredible job watching my jindo mix rescue from Korea. Soju is not an easy dog at all. She is an interesting mix of a super timid rescue dog with also a lot of mischievous puppy energy. She is really nervous around anyone who is not her mom and dad and generally doesn’t like being pet by strangers. Cindy was a great sitter for Soju and was amazing at respecting Soju’s space, reading her body language, and giving Soju the time to warm up to her! She was great at communication, showed up early, and sent lots of updates and photos. She even sketched a super cute drawing of our pup! Highly recommend for any dog you have, especially those nervous pups :)

We asked Charles to do a very long sit for our girls Cheeky and Marlowe. Im a very nervous and anxious dog mom but Charles went above and beyond to put any worries at ease. He immediately started sending photos and I never had to ask him for any updates. Charles is a very confident and kind sitter; one of our dogs is picky/anxious but warmed up to him quickly. We hope to work with him in the future.

Laxmi is amazing. She took care of our cats for 3 straight weeks and things couldn’t have gone better. She is sincere and clearly loves animals. Our cats loved her and I am sure they will be a little sad that their time with her has ended. For now. Because we’ll definitely call on Laxmi for our cat sitting needs again.

Anita took such great care of our dog while we were away. We got lots of updates and pictures, which was so reassuring. I definitely felt like she was in great hands. Anita is super friendly, responsible, and really made sure Pretzel was well taken care of. She asked all of the right questions and she did a great job accommodating for our dog’s quirks. We’ll definitely be booking again next time we need a sitter!

Bri and Raj are excellent! Very friendly and accommodating to our two doggies’ needs, who can easily be a handful (one is young and full of energy and the other is older and not always dog-friendly) but were a breeze for Bri and Raj. Will definitely be booking with them again and would highly recommend them to others!
