“Abdelkader was excellent! He was communicative and followed all the directives that I left for him. To be honest, I don’t plan on using anyone else for my cat sitting services if I can avoid it. He’s just that good! I look forward to booking his services again!”
“Atxiri has stayed with my pup on 3 occasions now, she takes great care of him so that I don’t have to worry about him while I’m gone. I would absolutely recommend her and am thrilled to have found her!”
“Bryan is a great cat sitter- he clearly loves animals a lot and is both respectful and responsive! He sent plenty of pictures of Moose, who definitely enjoyed his company.”
“Camille was really great with housesitting our dogs for a few days! After our initial meet and greet, we could immediately tell she has a natural chemistry with animals and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She was flexible with schedule changes and regularly sent super cute photo updates of the dogs. We will definitely be using her again if the need arises and would highly recommend her!”
“Saifa took such good care of my dog. My dog is dog reactive, takes meds, and had a sore on his foot and Saifa took care of all of that perfectly. She was forward thinking and came to me with things she thought my dog could use and ordered them. She sent pics of everything she did, gave my son enrichment and was overall excellent. Communication 10/10, care 10/10.”
“we loved Grace so much!!!! she took such great care of Eloise and sent lots of pics of our happy girl. Felt confident El was well taken care of and understood.”
“Schirn was a great house sitter! She gave me pup dates along the way and was easy to communicate with. She left the house spotless and my pup was in good spirits when I came home. Would book again!”
“Lenin was a great house sitter and sitter for my pets! His communication was thorough and professional, and I got plenty of great updates, photos, and videos. I will definitely contact him again when I need a sitter!”
“Chris is the best! Hands down one of the BEST pet sitters for my babies. I am SUPER picky and don't usually book the same sitters unless I truly like them. Chris communicates very well and sees to my pets needs. Follows the itinerary very well, sends pictures, updates, and knows how to handle each one of them.”
“Simply wonderful! Lillybeth took great care of Rudy and sent two updates per day the whole time we were away. She gave Rudy plenty of scratches and the cuddled together. I can’t recommend her more highly!”
“Maria was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Milli! She was incredibly attentive, patient, and tuned into Milli’s needs from the start. You could tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks—she took the time to make Milli comfortable, gave her plenty of exercise, and sent thoughtful updates after each walk. Milli adored her and would get so excited every time Maria arrived! It’s such a relief to know our pup was in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker!”
“It was amazing! Adriana stayed at our place with Pelusa for ten days. We came back and Pelusa was happier than ever, in perfect shape, active, spectacular. Pelusa is a very demanding border collie, and it demands both physical and mental activity. Adriana was up to the task. She also kept us updated with pics and asked us if she had any question. She was sweet and caring with Pelusa and you could tell from his reaction when she came back to return the keys. A great experience, couldn't recommend her more. Thanks! ¡Mil gracias!”
“Becka has watched our dog twice now and both times has been so good updating us and willing to stay as long as we need! Definitely recommend and we will be using her for awhile :)”
“Dicky was wonderful with our pups. She housesat for us when we were off island for a long weekend and kept us up to date with texts and videos - very happy to have another person we can trust to help us out with the dogs. We plan to call on her again in the future!”
“Olga and Nicol were very communicative and attentive to Jojo while we were away. They kept us updated with anything unusual that happened and sent lots of pictures. They even helped pick up packages! Would highly recommend.”
“Natalie was great with our cats and was sure to maintain their routine while we were away. She was communicative and left our apartment in great shape upon our arrival. She even cleaned out kitty litter boxes. We would be happy to have her look after our cats in the future. Thank you, Natalie!!”
“Wonderful booking Alice and Ethan! They took care of Gracie exactly per all our instructions. They gave her a lot of attention when she was awake and were perfect when she needed to rest. Thank you guys!”

Saifa took such good care of my dog. My dog is dog reactive, takes meds, and had a sore on his foot and Saifa took care of all of that perfectly. She was forward thinking and came to me with things she thought my dog could use and ordered them. She sent pics of everything she did, gave my son enrichment and was overall excellent. Communication 10/10, care 10/10.
Nouni took great care of my two pups at our home while we were away. She was very responsive to our texts and had no issues administering my boy Lino’s daily eye medication. They enjoyed their walks, and even though there was snow everywhere, they were walked daily, fed properly, and had a great time with her👏🏽 Definitely recommend her!
Anna is absolutely the best! She took wonderful care of my senior dog and senior cat over 3.5 days. She took the time to read my instructions and listen carefully to my concerns and followed up on everything that we requested for their care. She was very professional and loving towards them and was even able to give my feisty cat some oral medicine she needed which is not an easy thing to do! Communication with her was great and she gave us lots of updates. She took great care of our apartment as well and left everything clean and tidy. I cannot recommend Anna highly enough and I look forward to having her again in the future.
Jessica was wonderful! My cat, Willow, snuggled up to her right away. We got regular updates while we were away and were never wondering if things were going ok because I knew they were going great! If you want your pet in caring, responsible hands then book Jessica!
Yaisa is the BEST. She took great care of my two cats while I was away and she left my apartment super clean. She also kept me updated the whole time I was away and put my mind at ease. She’s incredibly professional, organized, warm and trustworthy. When I came back home, I could tell my fur babies were happy and very well taken care of. Thank you Yaisa!!
Great sitter! He stayed with my dog while I was on vacation and he made me feel so sure that Teddy was getting good care. My dog is reactive on walks and diabetic and requires insulin injections every 12 hours. Even with these challenges, Austin did amazing. I would definitely book him again
Catherine was great!! She stayed over Thanksgiving break to watch our cats and they had a great time with her. She also went above and beyond to clean our apartment before we came back. We came home to relaxed, happy cats and a clean home, which makes traveling much less stressful. Would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s pets!
Sidney was the BEST petsitter!! She was super communicative and sent us detailed summaries of her day with the pets with lots of photos. She easily put up with Bobby and Millie's little quirks and they seemed to warm to her very quickly. We did not feel like we needed to worry at all while we were on vacation and could totally relax. I would rebook Sidney in a heartbeat!! Thanks again Sidney
This was my first time having a sitter stay in my home and I could not ask for a better experience. Catherine took care of my 2 dogs and my home better than I could imagine. She provided daily updates with pictures and videos. She followed detailed directions and kept their routine up perfectly. She put me at ease while I was travelling so I could really focus on my trip. I came back to a clean house with happy dogs. I could see they were at ease with her too. She’s a pro. I would not hesitate to use her again. Thank u so much Catherine. 🙏💕
