“Emily came to our hotel to watch our pups while we spent a full day sightseeing. It was a load off our mind knowing they had company and were able to go for walk. She did a wonderful job and sent pictures throughout the day. I would highly recommend Emily!”

8. Marlita M.

“This is my second time booking with Marlita and she did an amazing job again. Both my cats love her. My one cat loves her so much that when she saw it was me who came back home she hid under the couch because she was disappointed I wasn’t Marlita. She sends daily updates and follows care instructions well. I’m glad I found a reliable cat sitter and I will definitely be booking with her again.”


9. Naeemah S.

“Naeemah was a wonderful sitter for our 13 year old deaf dog, and our 5 year old cat. She took care of our furbabies and our home with great care. Would definitely recommend!”


10. Molly M.

“Molly and her husband were great, they took care of our two dogs while we were away for a few days and made sure they were pampered and stayed healthy. They also left our place clean and went the extra mile to get our puppy some extra food when he ran out of it. Highly recommend!”


11. Caroline G.
“Caroline is my friend and neighbour when he was living in kenya. Her passion for pets is what set us apart, when she got married, she chose pet(dog) as her first priority while I chose to have a child. Her obsession with pets and treating them with compassion makes her a good candidate to take care of dogs. To her they are not animals but souls in four legs. There will be no better person to do this Job as her.”


12. Heather N.
“Heth has always been surrounded by animals throughout her life, and her ability to care for our pets has always impressed me. They genuinely seem to have a special fondness for her, and it’s clear that she has a passion for connecting with them. Her dedication to ensuring their well-being and happiness really shines through in everything she does.”


13. Angie V.
“Me permito recomendar a la señorita Angie Villamizar, la cual conozco y doy fe de ser una persona responsable, dedicada y amorosa con las mascotas.”




14. Andrew S.
“Our family has had several rescue dogs over the years, each with their own unique personalities and needs. Andy has always shown a natural empathy and affection for animals, and he has consistently demonstrated patience and understanding in his interactions with them. He takes the time to get to know each dog's temperament and responds to their individual needs with care and thoughtfulness. Andy has often been the primary caregiver and dog walker in our household, especially when we've been away. He handles responsibilities with maturity and attention, making sure the dogs feel safe, exercised, and well cared for. His awareness of his surroundings while walking dogs is excellent, and he always prioritizes their safety and comfort. Growing up in a home full of animals, including dogs with various temperaments and other small pets, Andy developed a strong connection with animals early on. He is truly a natural with dogs and has a calm, grounded presence that animals respond well to. I highly recommend him for any dog walking or pet care role—he’s reliable, kind, and has a genuine love for animals.”


15. Sienna T.
“I couldn’t recommend Sienna more! She has taken care of my 3 year old maltipoo & 2 tabby cats multiple times and everytime they are taken great care of and happy babies! They love being with her so much! She is so kind and patient with them, takes my dog on walks and tons of play time! She is my primary pet sitter now!”


16. Natasha B.


“Natasha was amazing! We t couldn’t have been happier spend time with our pups. She took great care of them, constantly sent updates with photos (she is a great pet photographer fyi!!!) and was prompt, professional and kind. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her!”


17. Hannah C.
About: I have experience caring for small pets, like turtles, Lizards , fish and dogs, I love animals generally and would love to help you care for them while you’re out or away! I work Part Time, Mornings and Afternoons are great! If you have a flight to catch early I can be there early on puppy duty, or If you’re running late, I can wait a little extra too! While I take care of the dog(s) I will make sure the puppies are walked, fed, played with and cared for till we wait for the owner to come home!


18. Amber S.
“Amber has proved herself to be one of the most compassionate, detail oriented, and loving owners from what I have witnessed throughout my time knowing her. She’s the kind of person who will do whatever she’s capable of to provide and give the best home. She makes their care both physically and emotionally (all the love and affection) a priority in her life. She’s on top of any medical care needed, providing proper nutrition, engaging in physical activities whether it be playing around or simply going for a walk, and having that cool down time of cuddling up, giving toys and treats. I genuinely can’t think of a better person to trust and feel comfortable with a furry friend.”


19. Enrique O.

“What an amazing cat sitter! We have three cats, with very different personalities and he handled all of them wonderfully. We got tons of photos, videos and updates, and felt very confident leaving them in his hands. My wife says he is the Da Vinci of cat sitter photos!”


20. Nicole C.

“Nicole was the first pet sitter I ever used, and I couldn't have asked for a better person. She was professional, highly communicative, and adept at caring for my senior rabbit and cats. My senior rabbit required medication throughout, which she managed well. It was reassuring to have Nicole there for my pets, and her evident love for animals and experience shone through. Amazing Housesitting! I would highly recommend her with a 10/10 rating.”
