Carolina is hands down the best. This was my first time booking a house sitter and it was such a great experience. Carolina is super responsive and provided daily updates while I was away. The whole process was seamless and I wasn’t worried after our initial meeting. Pets were well cared for and I appreciate it all. I will for sure be booking Carolina in the future when I travel or need care for my pets!

Shykala agreed to watch my dog at my home on short notice while I was away for the weekend. She went out of her way to accommodate my schedule in order to do a meet and greet with my dog, who is anxious around new people. While I was away, she sent multiple updates, photos, and maps showing the routes she walked with my dog. When I returned from my trip, my home was just as I had left it and shykala had taken the trouble to strip the bedsheets and take out the trash. I will definitely be asking her to watch my fur baby again!

Jessica was great!!! She stayed in our home while we went on a camping trip. We had very limited internet access but I felt totally comfortable with Jessica watching our two dogs, cat and the neighbor’s bonus cat who also visits. Everything went well and we will definitely rebook her!

We were very lucky to find Iuliia. She stayed with our very sweet, but very anxious dog over the holidays. It took our pup a little while to adjust, but she quickly warmed up and the two became fast friends. We will definitely work with Iuliia again in the future.

This is our second time having Autumn stay with our pups while away on a trip and, just like the first time, she was fantastic! Daily communication and photos, not afraid to share any concerns, even minor ones, so that we were up to date, and left everything clean and tidy for when we returned home... probably even better than when we left! Highly recommend!

Michael was wonderful! He was great with all our pets and gave us regular updates throughout the weekend. He took our dog for multiple walks per day and played with her a lot! He also worked with her and did some training while we were gone! He was also very respectful of our home. We will definitely use Michael again and recommend him highly!

Tatiana took care of our senior greyhound overnight at our house, and did a fantastic job! She met with us before our trip and was very thorough in going over all of his information. She communicated with us regularly while we were away and reached out to his vet when he had a minor medical issue. She very clearly enjoyed spending time with our dog and gave him lots of love. I would absolutely recommend Tatiana to anyone who was looking for care for their pets!

Briana was fabulous! Both my cat and dog are picky eaters and Briana got them to eat. She was patient and conscientious. Originally we had booked her to just cat-sit, but our plans for our dog fell through and she gladly took on the challenge of taking care of our diabetic dog, insulin shots and all. We are so thankful for her!

Jill is amazing! She came in to help with a dog sitting need and at the last minute it all changed. She literally went from meet and greet mode- straight into overnight, house sitting mode! Despite all the chaos, her confidence and wonderful, easy going temperament put us all at ease. Even our pup, normally skittish, seemed to just melt in Jill's arms. Such a relief and we are so very grateful. 1001% will be booking Jill again, if she'll take us! :-)

Rachel did an amazing job sitting our dog. This was his first time spending time with a pet sitter, and I was very happy with the outcome. Our dog is usually shy with people, but he warmed up to Rachel as soon as he met her, I think thanks to Rachel’s friendliness and easygoing manner! Rachel was also very flexible and accommodating, and sent us photo updates which I appreciated. I highly recommend Rachel to everyone, including those who have shy & timid pets.

I cannot recommend Marykay enough as a pet sitter. From her initial lightning-fast response on Rover to the end of her stay with my dog, Scooch, she was simply amazing. Marykay is incredibly passionate about animals and possesses a calm and responsible demeanor that immediately put me at ease. She came over to meet Scooch a couple of weeks before her stay, and I knew immediately that I could trust her with my best buddy. Even when there was some miscommunication on my part, Marykay handled it with grace and flexibility. When I returned home, Scooch was happy to see me, but it was clear Marykay had taken care of him well. Knowing that Scooch was in such good hands made my time away stress-free.

We greatly appreciate Sarah watching our pets! We had a last minute change to the sitter schedule and needed someone to watch our pets and Sarah immediately helped us out! We could tell the pets warmed up to her quickly and she was very attentive with all of them based on her daily updates. Highly highly recommend!

Sarah did a great job taking care of my dog when he was just a week post-surgery. She kept him calm, gave his meds, and provided the extra care needed. Looking forward to having Sarah back in the future!
