Stephen was professional, punctual, thorough, and kind in all of his interactions with us and our dog. Trusting someone to come into your home, treat it respectfully, and care lovingly for your pet can be stressful and a huge leap of faith. So glad we found Stephen! Will definitely use him for future dog sitting needs.

Another amazing pet sitting experience with CJ!! Our shepherd Ellie absolutely loves him and when we came home, she looked at us like “who are you?” He takes great care of our girl and also leaves our house in impeccable condition. This time he even had to put up with house construction and had no complaints. He’s our go-to for pet sitting!

Jeanette was amazing. Jake was being difficult and wouldn’t come in but Jeannette wouldn’t give up and go to bed till she finally got him in at 3AM. I felt bad and told her to go to bed, but she wouldn’t until he was in. He is usually good for her and comes in before dark,, but not this time.

Trina is an absolute gem. She cared for our pup with kindness and love, and put a great amount of time and effort into getting to know him and us before our trip. It put me at such ease knowing he was in her care. Beyond happy to have met Trina and am so excited to have her care for Chip again.

Amara is the best. When I returned from a weekend awa, my puppy, Loki, was relaxed and happy. Amara listened carefully to all of my instructions, and followed them all. When she had a question about them, she texted me. She also sent lots of photos. Could not have asked for more! I will book again! I would give 20 stars if I could. Ann

We couldn’t have asked for better sitters for Chestnut, especially during such a challenging time as her first heat cycle. Lisa & Ray are patient and caring, making sure Chestnut was comfortable and well taken care of. Lisa & Ray went above and beyond by following all the detailed care instructions we provided. They managed diaper changes and clean-ups. The communication was excellent—they kept us updated with photos, videos, and notes, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

We returned to happy dogs and a spotless house. We highly recommend Meiling to anyone in need of a trustworthy and meticulous dog sitter!

Kimberly was incredibly responsible and communicative. Emmy (my siamese mutt) is an excellent judge of character and when I arrived home she was in excellent spirits, having obviously received a tremendous amount of attention and love. I will absolutely be working with Kimberly again, and I would encourage you to do the same -- she's terrific!

Zoe is an absolute lover of all animals! I hired her to take care of my dogs several times. We have a frenchie and english bulldogs. She made them organic, nutritious snacks. Our dogs have separation anxiety when we leave town, but when Zoe shows up the dogs rush to her and cuddle up to her. Zoe is responsible and cleans up after our dogs. She is the perfect surrogate momma for your furry babies.

Aimee was so wonderful with our fur baby! This was our first time using Rover and we are grateful to her for being able to care for our hyper pug last minute. She went out of her way to meet Pickles beforehand. She was attentive, sent updates, and kept our apartment tidy. Will be rebooking in the future. Many thanks again!

We booked John for a second time and he was excellent as expected. Regular and timely updates, and lots of videos for our young boys who were missing our furry child on our planned vacation. Murphy was super relaxed and calm with John. John is super reliable and makes us feel comfortable while we are miles away our child.

My two pups both love Raeline! One is larger at 65lbs and the other is only 6lbs, she is able to care for both their needs. She really engages with them and they always have a blast when they are with her. She has been very reliable and responsive to our requests and instructions. I fully trust her with my dogs and my home when I am away. Highly recommend for both dogwalking and petsitting!
