1. Alina R.

“We could not have been happier with Alina as our house and dog sitter while we were away. The dogs were well taken care of, we got multiple daily updates, and the house was in the same if not better state than when we left it. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”


2. Sidni M.

“I feel incredibly lucky that I met Sidni by chance through this app. She stayed at my house and watched my German Shepard while I was out of town. Sidni was professional, kind and responded nearly instantly whenever I reached out. She provided constant updates and photos of my pup having the best time with her. I came home to a house that was cleaner than when I left and a dog that was extremely happy. I trust and recommend Sidni!”

7. Bonnie C.


“Bonnie was incredible! She went above and beyond for Blanche, who I think was genuinely sad to see her go. We plan to book Bonnie any time we need a hand in the future as she’s available.”


8. Ava P.
“Ava is a kind, dedicated, and hardworking woman who adores animals. Being a pet owner herself, she understands the love that goes into raising your own pet like family and the feeling of trusting someone to watch over them when you need a little extra help. She will take joy in being able to spend more time with your pet, whether it is for a walk or to stop by and look after them for a bit. She has walked and watched my dogs several times and they always have so much fun! Ava will be a lovely choice for you and your pet when the time comes and I fully trust that you will have the same great experience that my dogs and I did.”


9. Ariana R.
“Whenever I have a trip I can always count on Ariana to take care of my dog Benny. She is responsible and loves my boy so much. Every time I have to travel I know Benny is getting all the snuggles and attention he needs. They both love to hangout and go on adventures when I’m away. Ariana also leaves my apartment exactly how I left it whenever she stays :)”


10. Amanda & Matthew K.

“WOW!! We are so blown away!! Amanda & Matthew K. are so fabulous, attentive, and the pups LOVED them! We wish we could give 10 stars!!”


11. Julie B.
“I can't recommend Julie enough for dog walking! She’s been walking my Golden Retriever, Mike, and he absolutely loves her. Julie clearly has a deep love for animals, and it shows in how she interacts with Mike—he’s always so happy after his walks. She’s reliable, efficient, and makes sure Mike gets a great walk, covering everything in a full hour. It's clear she takes pride in providing great service. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about your pet, Julie is the one!”


12. Beth W.

“Beth was fantastic. As a mom who hates to leave her pup, I was very nervous leaving our dog for 10 days. Beth gave us several updates to ease our minds and was super responsive to our questions. She walked him often and gave an update after each time. She is professional and responsible and followed our normal routine. She even helped us put medication on a cut our boy had on his belly and he healed right up with her care. When we returned home, the house was left as if she wasn’t even there-clean, sheets washed and all picked up. I would highly recommend Beth to watch your pet! There are few I trust…Beth is one I absolutely do! She takes pride in doing the job RIGHT and well. Thanks Beth!”


13. Landen S.
About: I have taken care of both my own dogs and have pet sat for friends and neighbors for many years and have loved taking care of different types of dogs! I love some good puppy time and treat every dog the same as I would treat my own dog. I am currently a college student but I am done with all of my classes after 2:10 everyday and have pretty free weekends! I have a very flexible schedule I will take care of the pets however the owner sees fit, if the dog needs to be crated when it is alone or if owners are comfortable with the dog being loose around the house, whatever is most comfortable for owners.


14. Maika M.

About: I have grown up taking care of dogs! My grandpa breeds dogs so I have taken care of several different breeds. Along with puppies, pregnant dogs, old dogs, and sick dogs. I have a 7 year old German Shepard (she does not live with me right now) and I love to take her to the dog park, for walks, swimming, and to pet smart to spoil her. I can guarantee the best care for your dog or cat. I am a full time student at UT, but have lots of breaks within the day and no more than two classes a day. I do live in an apartment with two other roommates and they’re both dog lovers as well. I also live right next to a dog park and lots of walking paths so high energized dogs are no problem!
