“Jennah was super flexible with my very last minute booking. She did everything I requested and more!”
2. Jamie E.
“Jamie has been stellar w/ my challenging pitbull! I've noticed a positive change in his overall temperament since she became part of his care team. She is easy to work with and schedule. Definitely recommend.”
3. Jadyne M.
“Jadyne is an absolutely amazing and very considerate pet sitter! I went out of town to visit family for over 2 weeks, and she was fantastic with coming in daily to check up on my cats. She stayed for a few hours at a time every day to check up on their automatic food and water feeders, as well as clean up their litterbox. I was especially appreciative of her attention to detail with the litterbox, since one of my cats is quite picky with the litterbox setup. Jadyne was able to accommodate her pickiness with no issues, which gave me enormous peace of mind on my trip! I was also grateful that Jadyne was willing to stay for a little bit during each visit to spend time with my cats and play with them so they wouldn't get too lonely. She frequently sent photos and videos so I knew they were doing okay, and communication was a breeze.”
4. Hannah M.
“Hannah was so prompt and accommodating for us. She is a delight to work with, and you can tell how much she loves dogs. My timid girl went right up to her, and that says a lot! I’m so happy we met Hannah.”

7. Audrey S.
“Audrey always watches my dogs when I am away. I never have to worry when they are in her care. She is the best at feeding them, walking them, and giving them their medicines. My dog Kodi was a high needs dog (required medicine twice a day) and Audrey took the best care of him. I highly recommend.”
8. Anne S.
“Annie is great! I work long hours so Annie walks my dog a couple times a week. She's reliable, responsive and she gives me cute updates and pictures after every walk. I'm lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her!!”
9. August S.
“Our dog is shy and has separation anxiety, but August did a great job making him feel comfortable and safe with a new person! We would definitely recommend them to anybody, but especially those with tricky and nervous pets who need a little extra patience!”

12. Diana P.
“Diana was great with my pup. I had just gotten her and I was working night shifts so she took her to her apartment some nights. My pup loves her so much , I can tell and when I’m working I’m relieved knowing she’s in great loving hands. I’m sure my dog didn’t miss me at all. Diana sends pictures of her all the time , playing , eating , cuddling. She’s great !”
13. Eden A.
“Eden takes great care of our boy, Charlie. She knows how much he loves the snow and despite how cold or snowy it is, they build snowmen to be destroyed or play fetch with snowballs!”
14. Ali P.
“Ali is an amazing walker and sitter. She always arrives with a smile and takes the BEST care of my dog Bella. She goes above and beyond when it comes to her care, often taking extended walks or running her to vet appointments. I trust her completely when it comes to my home as well. She has stayed repeatedly, without issue, and I would welcome her back anytime. She is clean, always in communication with me while I'm gone, and most importantly, Bella is happy and healthy when I return! Your pup and your home would be in excellent hands with Ali.”
15. Adriana B.
“Adriana has been excellent! very responsive and communicative - it's been a joy to work with her and I trust her with my boy completely (an 80 lbs. 8 year old dog who loves all his smells and peeing on everything!).”
16. Leidy G.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all types since I was 10 years old. Many people have put their trust in me because I take care of them, walk them, feed them and bathe them. I am currently home full time so I can play with your puppy and make him feel good and cared for while he is in my home. I am available to take care of him any day of the week, it will be a pleasure for me. I have a large and secure yard but I can easily lock up your dog if you wish. I will take care of him with pleasure
17. Vanessa C.
“Vanessa took excellent care of my dog Daizy (who has since passed). Whenever I was away, Vanessa was a willing and reliable dog sitter/walker, and even took Daizy into her own home on occasion if it was convenient and the need arose. She clearly does this not only because of her commitment to a job well-done, but because she truly loves animals and cares for them as if they're her own. I sometimes feared Daizy liked Vanessa more than myself! Seriously though, I wouldn't trust anyone with the care of my pets more than I do Vanessa.”
18. Ava W.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, rescuing my own puppy at 17 years old. Growing up I had 2 dogs at home and understand the care they require. In high school I would pet sit, and when I was a young girl I would always go with my aunt to her pet sitting jobs. I have trained both dogs and cats as well. During college my roommates and I have had a cat named Blu, so I have experience with cats as well! I am currently still a college senior, but my class schedule allows for plenty of time within my daily and weekly routine for animal care. I understand how important it is to walk, feed, play, and give attention to your pets. I know some animals require more attention than others, and I am incredibly patient.
19. Alyssa P.
“Alyssa was so great with my little one. She kept me updated throughout the week, was very responsive and took care of him when he did not feel well. She even got him a toy for his birthday. I would highly recommend her!”
20. Savannah R.
“Savannah has spent the last week giving my new pup, Harper, a midday walk to break up the day at home. Savannah has provided daily updates and pics of her walks with Harper and I am extremely grateful for her care with her. I look forward to booking her for future walks with my dog and I know that Harper does too.”
