Paula is amazing! So caring and thoughtful, our dog Rosie loved spending the night with her. Lots of walks, lots of snuggles—10/10 would recommend, and can’t wait to work with her again!

Lexi watched my three pets, including an older special needs cat. Her communication was wonderful - great question, photos and updates, and just a cheerful confidence that helped me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. They and the house were in great shape when I returned and I could tell the cats and dog were well cared for. Thank you so much!

Elizabeth was incredible, and we feel so lucky to have found her. This was not the easiest sit—our senior dog and younger cat require careful management and don’t always get along—but Elizabeth handled everything with so much patience, attentiveness, and care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was so capable and calm in navigating their dynamics. She kept us updated with the sweetest photos and little notes throughout our trip, which made being away so much easier (and honestly, we looked forward to her updates every day). Communication was always quick, clear, and thoughtful—she was super responsive and proactive if anything came up. On top of that, she treated our home with total respect and left everything in great shape. You can tell she genuinely cares—not just about doing a good job, but about the animals themselves. We would 100% have Elizabeth back and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly exceptional sitter.

About: From overnight stays and walks to playtime and cuddles, family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their fur baby. Being able to work with cats and dogs on a daily basis as a veterinary assistant continues to help me accumulate various skills to work with animals of all temperaments and ages! I’m currently working part time so I’d have flexible time to spend with your precious pups whether during the week or during the weekend ! Pups are off if their routine is off so if you have a specific schedule or way of doing things I can assure you I will stick to the game plan.

We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Margaret! She took excellent care of my dog, Otto, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was traveling. I really appreciated the regular updates with pictures and great communication—it gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, kind and caring pet sitter!

Arsen and Sophia did a great job. They communicated well, sent funny pics and we returned to a calm dog who clearly liked them and was sad to see them leave. House was clean. Would hire them again anytime.

I would be so happy to have Elishamaria watch Chalupa again. She arrived on time, communicated well, was super professional, and our puppy was very happy under her care. She watched our dog at the hotel where we’re having our wedding celebration.

We could not be happier with Jade! She came to our rescue when a kennel reservation fell through and stayed in our home for four nights with our eight month old Samoyed puppy and three year old bengal cat while we traveled out of state to a family wedding. Jade exudes an immense amount of compassion and sensitivity, as well as the utmost professionalism. Her communication is awesome, and her experience/knowledge as a petsitter and caretaker of animals really shows. She took remarkable care of our beloved cat and dog, and just as importantly she cared beautifully for our house while we were away. This was our first time working with a pet sitter, and actually opening our home to someone while we weren’t there, which was totally nerve-wracking! We are so grateful that Jade was the person we connected with.

Vanessa was by far the best sitter we’ve had in nearly ten years. She went above and beyond. She took pebbles on hikes and swims and dog parks, kept her super clean and managed her food and meds very well. We returned in over a week to find pebbles thriving. We would call on Vanessa in a heart beat going forward whenever we need someone to care for our pup.

Abbey eased my mind while I was away with her updates, photos, and videos of my cat Edward. She gave him great companionship (they seemed to get along fabulously!) as well as giving him daily medication and administering his inhaler. She was very attentive with his care and communicative and took my many instructions and things to watch for in stride!

Kristina looked after our 2 5-year old lab/shepherd dogs at our home for 8 days. We couldn't have hoped for a better experience - Kristina goes above and beyond in every capacity. Kristina was excellent with our boys. They absolutely adore her! Kristina is a great communicator. She kept us well-informed as to how things were going at our home. She's mature, responsible, and a pleasure to interact with. Thanks to Kristina, we had a carefree vacation and returned home to 2 very happy, healthy, and content pups and a spotlessly clean home. Kristina is a gem!

Paula did a terrific job house-sitting for our cat. We were impressed by her as early as the initial meet-and-greet. She was totally present and familiar with cat behavior to the point that Louis made an appearance within 20 minutes of her arrival. Communication during the house-sit was excellent. We could tell from the daily photos that Louis was having a great time. Paula also went above and beyond by shoveling necessary paths during the very significant snowstorm on Jan. 25. We were totally comfortable with her in charge and have already re-booked her for another stay.
