“Sejla was a fabulous cat sitter- she was responsive and communicative and very easy to work with. She provided plenty of updates and gave my cat lots of attention and love.”


2. Jessica F.


“Highly recommend Jessica! She was wonderful with our animals and put everyone at ease. She is kind, caring and a lovely person. Jessica sent photos of our pets during our trip and made sure we knew everything was going well.”


3. Michelle D.

“I have asked Michelle to cat-sit my kitty twice now and she has been great! My cat has separation anxiety and not only is Michelle great at calming her down, she plays with her a lot. She does a great job of making sure the litter is scooped, water is filled, and food bowls full. She has also been very respectful of my home; she is very clean. I will be asking her to cat-sit my Nugget in the future.”


4. Estela L.

“Estela was very professional and friendly towards our dog. Somehow our dog instantly bonded with her and even though he has separation anxiety, with Estela he was quite comfortable and calm. I would like to request her service again.”


5. Alyssa R.

“Alyssa was amazing. She took such great care of our pup and home. Sent messages with updates and left our home cleaner than it was when we left. Would highly recommend her.”


6. Quynh N.

“Quynh was awesome with our two babies! We really don’t use outside pet care for our two dogs, as we truly don’t trust many people to watch them. Typically they stay with family only when we are out of town. They are our kids! From the first time Quynh met our dogs, we knew she was going to be a great choice. She was very attentive to them while we were out of town, heard our concerns about our anxiety leaving them, and accommodated by sending TONS of pictures, videos, and updates throughout her stay with them. She thoroughly read through the notes we left, and followed them very well. We will definitely be using her again in the future. We could tell that she really enjoyed her time with them too while we were gone. Thanks Quynh!”


7. Rahul R.

“Rahul was very deligent making notes of where things were. He took care of my pets just perfectly! Hes very friendly and smart! I have already booked him for the 2nd time!”


8. Michelle S.

“Michelle just finished a 3 night house/dog sit for our two large senior dogs (95 lbs. ea and 12 yrs. and 13 yrs.). She arrived on time and kept us informed. The dogs seemed happy when we returned home and the house was clean. I would recommend Michelle.”


9. Leslie C.

“Leslie was absolutely incredible and hands-down the best dog sitter we’ve had. We really appreciated how attentive and caring she was to our dog, Mimo, and to our space throughout the holiday weekend. Not only was she prompt and communicative, but she went above and beyond to ensure Mimo was taken care of, and always sending great updates in the process. We’re looking forward to the next opportunity Leslie can watch again!”


10. Ryan P.


“Ryan did a great job watching our two dogs during our vacation. He kept us well informed of what was going on at the house. Our older dog is shy and he got her to come out from hiding to go on walks. I really appreciate the job he did for us.”


11. Katherine M.
“Katie (Katherine) is great and responsible for our dog, Buster. She loves dogs and cats, and is thrilled to work with them on a regular basis. She does walking, playing, bathing, and anything else Buster needs, including Buster's daily medications. She also house-sits and dog-sits our neighborhood dogs on a regular basis.”


12. Malia C.

“Malia was wonderful with my pets! I was so happy to come home to happy, relaxed animals. It’s clear that Malia has a genuine love for pets. My two chihuahuas and cat seemed to really warm up to her. She's clearly responsible and caring, and I felt completely at ease leaving my little critters in her hands.”


13. Stephen T.
“We booked Stephen to watch over our two dogs and home during a medical emergency that lasted almost 6 weeks. He took amazing care of my two whippets. He followed all our instructions to the T. In addition, one of our dogs were diagnosed with heart failure during this time and required extra care of administrating medications twice a day. He was able to do both and successfully fed her the medication while also making our other dog (who gets jealous easily and wants anything his sister has) feel included by pretend feeding him his "medication" as well (it was just a piece of the same treat we used to give our dog her meds). Our dogs love him as can we seen when we came him. He took excellent care of them. Not only did he did the tasks required to take care of them, he hung out with them, played with them, and over all made them happy. We've used Stephen multiple times since then and each he comes over, they get super excited and happy (my dogs are usually indifferent and don't care much for anyone besides my husband and me). I highly recommend Stephen!”


14. Scottie O.
“Scottie O. is someone I trust implicitly with my pets because he demonstrates a rare combination of competence, compassion, and dedication. Having experienced his care for over 10 years, I can attest to his meticulous attention to detail and genuine love for animals. His training as a veterinary technician gives him the skills to go above and beyond to ensure the safety, comfort, and happiness of every pet he looks after. His commitment to excellent customer service is evident in their clear communication, reliability, and willingness to accommodate special needs. My pets love him!”


15. Frank D.
“I highly recommend hiring Frank as your dog sitter! I have used his service a few times now and my dog is always so excited to see him! He was kind, responsive, and professional. He provided me with daily pictures and detailed updates. Cannot recommend Frank enough and will be keep on hiring him!”


16. Ezekiel B.
“I have known Zeke for over a year. He is a responsible single man in a 2 bedroom apartment. He has two dogs he takes very well care of. He has given me a lot of valuable advice about taking care of my own dog. My dog was licking herself like a crazy woman and Zeke simply offed the solution of her wearing a cone. Zeke has kindly taken care of my dog many times. I can always count on him. My dog loves him and feels comfortable in his home. I work with Zeke within a professional manner as well as being friends. He and I both work for a school system. He and I have completely different roles, but I see his impact on our schools campus. He is always committed to doing his best, he's on time, helpful, and a good communicator. As he is the communications manager. Zeke is a wonderful human who would take good care of any animal. I have no doubts and he would be a perfect host for any animal who needs to stay. Thanks, Sarah”


17. Coneisa H.

“This was the 2nd time I have had Coneisa watch Snowman. She is so great. It's great to feel comfortable when you leave and she is watching my dog. She is the best and my dog loves her.”


18. Thuan N.
About: I have more than five years of experience caring for dogs, including taking care of my friends' dogs when they travel. I am skilled in providing proper feeding and ensuring the dogs get their necessary potty breaks. Being a current student with an online part-time job provides me with plenty of available time to care for your beloved pup. Additionally, I'm available to look after your pup on weekends. My home features a large, fenced yard that enables your pup to stay active and play freely. Additionally, I have a Corgi who can provide companionship for your fur baby. If necessary, I can easily provide a crate for your dog.


19. Brian T.
“Brian is very conscientious. He took great care of our elderly cat and younger dog. He sent pictures every day, and took great care of our house.”


20. Camila H.

“Camila did a wonderful job watching my two cats when I was gone for the holidays! It was clear that they felt very comfortable and I appreciated how she was communicative and thoughtful while housesitting.”
