Rosemary did SUCH a good job with house- & dog-sitting my pup in my apartment. Her attention to detail with the care instructions I gave, and how well she accommodated lots of instructions for a higher-maintenance dog, gave me so much peace of mind as I was out of town. I'll be booking her again when I'm traveling next! Thank you!!

She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.

Kelly took absolutely stellar care of my cat Ophie and my apartment while I was out of town for two weeks. She was incredibly flexible, communicative and accommodating (I even needed to extend my trip two times at the last minute). Most importantly, she worked true magic with my cat, who is usually very standoffish with anyone other than myself and tends to shut down if I go away for any amount of time due to separation anxiety. After just a few days Ophie was letting Kelly brush her and hanging out in the main room, going about her usual routine. By the end of the trip she was actually hanging out with Kelly on the couch!! I've genuinely never seen her so at ease with anyone other than myself in all 11 years of her life. I couldn't be happier with the service Kelly provided. It's one thing to know you pet is being taken good care of while you're away. It's an entirely different matter to know that they're actually enjoying themselves too! Kelly was able to give me that peace of mind and I couldn't be more grateful. I returned from my trip to a spotless apartment and a very happy kitty. I will absolutely be reaching out to her again the next time I need to go out of town! Thanks Kelly!!

Sophia did a wonderful job taking care of my cat and dog overnight! My dog is scared of new people but Sophia went above and beyond to meet her twice before staying over. Zena warmed up to her after a bit so I appreciate Sophia’s patience with her! Now Zena’s looking forward to her next play date! Thank you!

Becca was great! so good with Luna, when i came home, i think she was hoping to see her again, will definitely, hire again! Such a great experience vs. kennels where is seems more impersonal and the little dogs literally get the short end of the stick.

Elizabeth was great! My dog took to her right away. It was my first time leaving my dog at home without me, and she can get very anxious about change. The weekend went off without a hitch.

About: I just retired & have lots of time on my hands. I enjoy pets & have reliable transportation to get where I need to go. It’s a good fit because I just retired June 7th and I believe pet sitting will work for me. I’m really an active retiree, but I can make it work. I can’t watch peoples pets at my apartment, but I can watch peoples pets at their home. I can walk your pets and spend time with them.

Danny is great! He often comes by my house to watch my dog when i'm out of town or having a long day at work and i trust him completely with my dog Gus. He always sends photos of the dog looking so happy, and i know he's going the extra mile and getting in a game of fetch or tug with the dog every time he pops by. I've worked with him professionally as well and I can confirm that he is responsible, timely, and an all around great guy. Nobody loves dogs and cats more than Danny!

Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!

JP was amazing. She took great care of our little dog. She communicated with us throughout our time away sending pictures of our dog. Abbey, our little chihuahua, actually seemed to miss her when we were back home. That says a lot! We would not hesitate to recommend Jp, and will book her again in the future.

Katelyn has house sat and dog sat for me multiple times and is always someone I can trust while I’m away. I have two big labs and two French bulldogs that can be a handful, but Katelyn always takes great care of them and my house! It always looks super clean when I come back, which is always nice after being away.

Jordan was awesome! She came by for a meet and greet prior to our trip, and she communicated with me each day to give a report. We came home to 3 calm, happy and well cared-for pets as well as a clean house! Having Jordan stay with our pets gave us comfort and allowed us to have a completely stress-free time away! I highly recommend Jordan C - outstanding pet sitter!

jasmine did an absolutely wonderful job with my three pups. i have two mini-aussies and an aussie/husky mix, so three high energy and high velcro dogs. she sent me lots of pictures and seemed to really bond with them while i was away. aussies definitely need you to prove that you’re worthy of their trust. i am rather type A about my dogs’ routine and very verbose, but she followed my instructions to a tee and kept me updated throughout the day. i have gps collars that count their steps and sleep. their goal is usually 20k steps. one of my dogs was hitting 60k/day while she was there and i greatly appreciate her putting in the time and energy to make my dogs happy and relaxed. i will definitely be reaching out to jasmine whenever i need a dog sitter.
