“Couldn't have been better! Karen was awesome with our furry kids. They absolutely loved having her for a visit as did we. Part of me hates leaving such a great review for fear Karen will be booked when we need her....but fair is fair. We'll definitely be calling upon her again, and soon!”

5. Sydney J.

“Sydney petsit in our home this past week, taking care of our cat and dog. She was incredibly responsive and sent sweet pictures of our pets throughout our trip. Our neighbors often pitch in to help with each other's pets, and Sydney coordinated with these neighbors to provide seamless care. Definitely will be working with Sydney again!”


6. Nicole F.

“Nicole was punctual and dependable for the meet/greet. She is an excellent communicator and responded to messages before and during the service dates in a timely manner. The house was left clean and tidy; linens and towels were washed which was an unexpected gift! She and Stanley got along well and he appreciated the daily walks! We did, too, as well as the photos that Nicole sent. We were very pleased with her stay as Stanley’s sitter and highly recommend her!”


7. Soph R.
“I have had the absolute pleasure of knowing Soph for over two and a half years and can confirm that there is nobody I have ever known whose compassion matches their work ethic in the way that she does. Soph is a one -of-a-kind individual and she will literally sacrifice every imaginable comfort for herself in the name of improving the well-being and quality of life of the creatures and people that she loves. There is no question, she is the real deal in a way that people just never are.”


8. Sonia B.

“Sonia was amazing! Lots of pictures throughout and our anxious pooch was at ease and loved her instantly. Will definitely be using her as much as we can book her!”


9. Bohni K.

“Bohni was a treat on all levels!!! She stayed with my cat for 3 nights and 4 days.. I think my cat likes her more. The house was better than I left it.. Angel was calm and happy.. I was able to be away from her for the first time and feel confident in her STELLAR care.. if there were 10 stars she would get them all!!!!! Got photos all well everyday!!!! Happy customer”


10. Jasmine S.

“Jasmine was so sweet and caring with Kiwi. Kiwi has some special needs, she has separation anxiety and is in the beginning stages of degenerative myelopathy. Jasmine took great care of Kiwi and even got her through a thunderstorm. We are so glad that Jasmine became Kiwi's friend. Jasmine is patient and her demeanor is so cool and collected. We are very thankful for Jasmine keeping Kiwi safe and loved.”


11. Jessica R.
About: I have been looking after animals my whole life. I love them so much I made a career out of it as a Vet Tech and get to comfort and take of them everyday! I am happy to care for anything from puppies to senior dogs and medical case animals. 💖 I currently have a dog of my own. I work part time and am in school the other half. I am free most days and am very flexible with my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have 2 fenced in yards. I have a quite space separate from the household and provide lots of calm positive love for any animals in my care. I'm happy to play and acclimate to each animals needs


12. Shmerl B.

“Molly was wonderful, enthusiastic, great with my 8 year old lab who is obsessed with frisbee and her dog, Leon, was a gem. Highly recommend her.”


13. Caitlin H.

“Truly was so happy and relaxed with Caitlin!!”


14. Libby N.

“Libby spent the night with our pack of three wild and woolly pups. I would definitely have her come back and watch them again. Very personable young lady who took good care of our pack! Thank you Libby 😁”


15. David R.
“David is a reliable sitter that takes great care in his clients. My dog always comes back tired from walks and he is able to administer medicine to both the cats and dog.”


16. Emily & Leroy M.

“Emily has cared for our beloved 5 year old cavachon, Divot on several occasions. By our second drop off to Emily’s home, Divot was eager to go with her. Emily is a careful listener. I gave her Divot’s instructions. She explains things well so you know what to expect as she will understand your expectations as well. Communication is one of the number of things Emily does well. She had Divot blend into her family. Which wasn’t hard to do as it is a perfect setting. If you are lucky enough to book with Emily you are sure to be pleased with her care of your pet.”


17. Tiana T.

“Tiana was absolutely fabulous! Professional. Personable. Intuitive. Our young pugs had the absolute best time with Tania. She bonded with them instantly and them with her. Due to their bond, Mademoiselle and Captian (sister and brother), were very responsive and attentive to Tania. She took them on numerous daily outings such as: Little Long Pond; Pretty Marsh; Blue Horizon; and a hiking trail within walking distance from our home. Returning from our ten day trip, we were greeted by our two very happy little furbabies. Our home was immaculate (cleaner than when we left), bed linens, etc. were laundered and folded. Our plants looked better then ever and all our mail was organized neatly on our dining room table. To boot, early on in our trip, I needed help from Tania to put together an order placed on my Etsy shop. Having no experience in doing so, however, in no time Tania processed and shipped the order. Tania is truly exceptional.”


18. Harmony L.

“Harmony was great! Our dogs had such a good time with her they weren't all that excited to see us when we returned. We have a tracker for one of our dogs so we know they were walked a couple of times a day. Harmony brought her own dog, and he got along great with my "girls." We will definitely ask her to sit again.”


19. Jen G.

“We had a great experience with Jen! Our dogs liked her instantly and she was responding since and professional. Dogs didn’t even seem too”


20. Tyler W.
“My two rescued coonhounds are a lot to handle and Tyler takes it all in stride. They are always so happy to see him and when we return they are worn out from their play time. Tyler always sends a photo or video to let you know everything is going ok. He always makes sure you have made it home or offers to go back if you get delayed. He's very dependable, trustworthy and responsible and has a genuine love of animals. I always recommend Tyler when anyone is looking for a pet sitter.”
