“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”


3. Dea O.

“Dea was fabulous with both of our pups. She was very diligent with communication and ensuring our rescue who is an escape artist was kept safe!”


4. Anais D.

“Anais did an amazing job of taking care of my dog and two kittens while we were out of town. She sent me photos, kept me informed with regular updates of how everyone was doing, and even noticed a potential health issue that I am having checked out. Can’t recommend her enough!”


5. Ruby J.

“We had a perfect experience with Ruby. She supplied references, gave us updates on our dog's behavior and mood, was thoughtful when housesitting and let us know about anything unusual that she noticed. She sent lots of photos and gave us confidence that our dog was in good hands for our entire absence. We will be rebooking with her for sure.”


6. Leo S.

“Amazing, start to finish! Leo's communication with me was thorough and professional, and his time with Vivi was so caring and loving. As an older pup, she just needs lots of love, attention, and a few walks...and Leo goes above and beyond to accommodate her. He absolutely loves animals and it shows! Leo is my #1 go-to pet caregiver. Thank you, Leo!”


7. Alyssa S.

“Alyssa was incredible! She took amazing care of Pip, was super communicative, and went way above and beyond! I felt 100% comfortable knowing Pip was getting lots of love and attention while I was away!”


8. Sarah V.

“My regular dog sitter had to cancel and Sarah replied my desperate call and came right to our house. She then became best friends with our dogs right away and kept them safe while We were away. THANK YOU SO, SO MUCH YOU ARE OUR SAVIOR!!! We would love you to come back !!!”


9. Tina Y.

“Took such good care of my little ones and sent wonderful updates. Thank you so much!”


10. Daria S.

“Daria stayed in our place with our dog and cat for a week. Unfortunately, our cat became sick during our travel, and she promptly informed us about the situation. She took our cat to the vet, followed instructions about the treatment, and sent us timely updates. She is very caring and went above and beyond attending to our sick cat. Also, she left our house clean and in order. I highly recommend her.”


11. Andy B.

“Maria was great! She followed our instructions perfectly. Communicated very well. Was very organized. Highly recommend!”


12. Diana L.


“Diana helped us out last minute by watching Ralphie a few days before Christmas. She communicated regularly with us throughout the stay and brought walking outfits for Ralphie. We’re very grateful to her!”


13. Priscilla S.
“Priscilla has been a great help for my partner and I when it comes to house sitting. We have a variety of pets and she’s able to ensure all of them are well tended to and she keeps us updated as we’re out of town. Just to give an idea we have 2 cats, 1 bird, 2 tarantulas, a leopard gecko and a snake. We usually give her a list of needs for the pets and she always follows through. We’ve appreciated her support for the last 2 years. She’s someone we for sure have relied on.”


14. Nadine G.
“Nadine has helped me take care of my puppy Odin frequently. She is kind, communicative, caring, and I can scarce think of anyone I trust more than her.”


15. Eva E.

“Eva took great care of my dog while I was out of town! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone other than a trusted friend, but Eva did a phenomenal job with him and has left my feeling like he was in great hands the entire time. Will definitely ask her to watch him again when I need to.”


16. Whitney N.


“Whitney was really patient and caring with our dog who has a lot of stranger anxiety. She took her time getting to know him and cared for him when he made a mess and got sick too. She also stayed in constant contact and texted me how he was doing. I really appreciated all her hard work and care! She is clearly good with dogs and has a good sense of how to take care of them well. She also arrived early at 5:45am since our flight left early which I appreciated too. Thank you so much Whitney!”


17. Tiana P.

“She is my savior! agreed to take care of our dogs at the last minute, and she did it perfectly. All of my dogs absolutely love her and they looked very comfortable around her. Thank you so so much!”


18. Nicole S.


“Nicole was an amazing dog sitter, and I would use her again in a heartbeat. My dachshund is an older guy, and he is both deaf and struggling with dementia, which means that he requires a lot of care and help. Nicole was incredibly accommodating with regard to his needs - organizing her household to make it safe for him, watching him closely when he was around other dogs, etc. Nicole is also very gracious. For example, I found out upon returning from a two week trip that my dog had been waking her up really early. Rather than complaining about that - which would have been totally justified! - she figured out a way to deal with his early morning needs. Communication was wonderful, I received updates and pictures multiple times a day, and when I picked my pooch up, he seemed happy and well adjusted. Thank you so much Nicole!!”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life! I’ve always had a pet and they’ve ranged from chickens to spiders. I started pet sitting when I was 16 and am currently working at a dog daycare/boarding place and am a dog handler that will love and care for your pups no matter age or size! :))<3 Apart from being a student (on break) I’m also working part-time at a dog daycare on the weekends so during the week I’m usually free! When pups are in my care it’s my priority to help them feel safe and comfortable at home no matter how tedious or time consuming it will be!<33
