Mirren was amazing with our senior dog and young kitten. Both pets were very happy with her and she was an amazing house sitter. Very respectful, on time, and gave us plenty of updates. We will definitely book with her again in the future!

Virginia provided such great care for our two dogs. She provided great updates and pictures, and went above and beyond when our little guy was not feeling well. It gave us great peace of mind when we were out of town that she cared for our dogs like her own.

Shannon was amazing with my dog Cash while I was away for a few days! Shannon provided daily pictures and videos, as well as updates as to how he was doing. I was very impressed with how detailed she was in her updates, and I didn’t worry at all about him while I was away! I highly recommend Shannon!

This is Andrew's second time with Stephanie pet sitting and I know it will not be his last! He was calm and clearly well-cared for when we got home. Andrew is blind so it's not easy for him to have new adventures but Stephanie kept him occupied with massages, games and lots of affection. He is not crazy about taking walks but Stephanie somehow got him to take a 45 minute walk! She sent us detailed updates and funny, adorable photos. I feel very comfortable with Stephanie. We were able to take our trip without worry. Plus, the house was beautiful when we got home.

Molly is amazing!! She sent me sooo many pictures and updates of Zeus every day which I loved! She was so attentive of the notes I wrote for her and asked good questions to clarify about certain things. She reached out and was happy to take suggestions to make my dog more comfortable. Zeus seemed to be calm with her which is awesome because he can be quite nervous at first. She’s a great communicator and left my place just as I left it. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter!

Emma was fantastic! I literally put in a request the day before needed because my previous booked sitter cancelled at the VERY last minute. Emma was more than gracious with accepting and was the best sit for Blu! I highly recommend her for a dog sit. She provided realtime updates and Blu was very happy with her.

We hired Karima to pet sit/house sit while we went away for a few days. It was our first time leaving our two dogs at home because traveling and leaving them at someone else’s house causes them stress in their older age, and we are so happy we found Karima! She followed their schedule perfectly and administered medication to our older guy. She provided videos and updates which put us at ease. She also left the house spotless and the dogs were happily exhausted by the time we got home. We will be hiring her again in the future!

Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.

We were so lucky to find Brooke for an extended cat/house sit over the summer! I can't remember a time when I was more relaxed to leave my shy (but needy) boy with a sitter. Brooke is clearly a cat whisperer -- he trusted her immediately and became very attached. She was extremely diligent with all the care, played and cuddled with him and left the house in remarkably pristine condition. Very responsive and responsible, I cannot recommend her highly enough and look forward to having her stay again.

Mariaam was so lovely with Daisy! She was punctual, followed all of my directions (Daisy was on medication after a few very unexpected vet visits!) and was patient with her during her stubbornness of not wanting to be outside. I sincerely appreciated her being flexible with us and Daisy was well cared for and seemed to have had a great day!

Isabelle exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter! From the moment she arrived, our dog Max felt completely at ease with her, which says a lot about her natural way with animals. She kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us complete peace of mind knowing Max was happy and well-cared for. What really impressed us was her attention to detail - not only did she take excellent care of Max, but she also left our home spotless.

John has taken care of our two rescue poodles several times, and we (and they) adore him. He is thoughtful, sensitive, and authentic, with great communication. My husband and I have been able to travel in our retirement without worrying about the girls, knowing that John is caring for them. He is dependable, honest, and seems to truly enjoy them as well. They have anxiety issues, but John has won their trust, and while they are happy to see us when we come home, you can tell that they have had a good time with him. We like to check if he’s available before booking our tickets! (He also takes great care of the house!)

Tiedra was the best with taking care of our puppy Millie. We last minute needed help for a weekend and with having a puppy we were nervous about being able to get some help and Tiedra was just amazing. Our flights got cancelled coming home and she was able to spend an extra night with Millie which made a stressful situation much better knowing our pup was still in good hands. Tiedra sent so many good pictures and updates and I was never worried. If you need a puppy/dog sitter she’s your girl!

Mandy was wonderful with Cashew! He's a very sweet dog, but he is young and can take some time to get used to strangers and new people in our home. She took great care of him including managing some medications, helped us handle a wedding-related emergency while staying at our place, and overall was extremely responsive and flexible throughout. She gave us great peace of mind during a busy trip. We're looking forward to having her as a long-term sitter and walker for Cashew!

She has been such a blessing for our family taking such great care of our kitties and not having to stress while we are away. Highly recommend her to take care of your fuzzy loved ones.
