We would definitely have Sophia come to stay at our house with Bart again!”

Her flexibility and great communication gave us so much peace of mind during a stressful situation.

The house was in perfect condition when we returned, and we’re so grateful for her professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend!”
“Christina did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and house! I would definitely book again and am thankful to have had such a great experience!”
“Great sitter! Jessica provided updates and pictures during the stay and maintained constant communication. I am always hesitant when I have to book a new sitter, but glad I found her! I have 3 dogs with weird quirks (one food aggressive, another anxious, and the last very hyper and annoying lol) so it can be difficult to find care, but Jessica took them on with ease. Would absolutely book again and recommend for services.”

“Will house-sat and took care of our senior dog Leo over five days and four nights. He did a great job communicating with us and attending to all of Leo's needs. He texted us daily updates with photos. He asked the right questions and also took care of some things around the house. He was easy to work with in getting set up. We highly recommend Will!”
“William was amazing to have as my in home pet sitter for my husky! She was instantly at ease with him which allowed me to enjoy the time away! William was great at communicating and adjusting the walk schedule to accommodate the storms and heat we had while I was gone. Superior experience!”
“Gerber is amazing. My fur babies really loved him. It was our first time using a house sitter and Gerber was kind, respectful, communicative, and made us feel at ease. We were able to enjoy our trip without worrying as our fur babies were in good hands. We will book him again for sure.”
“Kathrine was wonderful with our 3 fur kiddos! She sent photos and 2-3 updates per day. We are very happy with her overnight sitter option and will certainly hire her again.”

Courtney is truly a godsend. She’s extremely flexible and super communicative. Our nervous pup could not be happier when her Courtney comes to stay with her!!!
Josie was excellent with both of our dogs and took really good care of them, she was proactive with their needs over the holiday week to make sure they were comfortable and not too anxious during fireworks. She also provided great communication all throughout. Will definitely request her again!
Brad was amazing! He took such great care of both my dog and cat—we came home to two happy, well-loved pets. He was punctual, professional, and clearly attentive to their needs. I fully trust him with both my home and my pets, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Joanne and Zoe did a great job taking care of our home and Midnight while we were away. Midnight has a fairly complicated feeding regimin and they did an excellent job with it. In addition, they are wonderful people. We would definitely use them again.
Nacho and Mia loved having Hope stay with them. There was good communication and a quick response when we initially reached out. The home was left exactly as we left it, and overall, there is nothing but positives to say. Our pets were well cared for and happy. We will hire Hope again.
Grace was great! We needed someone to stay at the house and take care of our pups while we were away for graduation. Grace fit the bill! Trustworthy, responsible and attentive to our 2 very different (Cane Corso and French Bulldog) dog's needs. Id definitely have Grace come back!
Tracy was amazing. Our dog loved her, and she loved our dog! Great service, great person, all around couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will hire her for future dog sitting needs and I would suggest you do too.
Kathrine was wonderful with our 3 fur kiddos! She sent photos and 2-3 updates per day. We are very happy with her overnight sitter option and will certainly hire her again.
Alejandro kept our lab Tucker happy and active while we were away! He was very quick and responsive to any questions or requests. There were plenty of pics and checkins via text. Alejandro also took great care of our home while dog sitting Tucker for almost a week. Thanks again, Alejandro!
My boy has gotten very old and needs lots of extra care. Thanks for being flexible and understanding and taking such great care of him, as always. You are appreciated!
Ava was so attentive, respectful, and communicated so well! So sweet to my sweet 15yo pup and I couldn’t have been happier knowing she was being cared for by Ava. Thank you so much for all of your help and care.
Thank you Blanca for watching our two senior dogs. Followed their med/food/potty scheduled as well. She notified me when instructed. Responded promptly when communicating. I would recommend her.
