“Orianne was amazing with our girl Brandy. She took the time to work through Brandy’s anxiety and was so patient and understanding along the way. It’s hard to come across sitters that pay attention to every little detail, but Orianne is beyond detailed oriented. Will definitely be booking her again without hesitation.”

“Everything was amazing! My dogs were very happy when I got home and the apartment looked exactly as I left it, maybe even better. I really appreciated the updates and communication, made me feel comfortable knowing they were in good hands!”

“Katie was a fantastic pet and house sitter! We came home to happy cats and a clean home. She was very good with our cats, one of them is incredibly shy and has been a problem for sitters before. Katie did a great job of following our instructions for our cats. I would love to have her watch our home and cats again.”

“Christine was great! She was patient with my shy husky mix and very communicative every day. I did not have to worry at all while I was away. Would hire her again!”


“Veronica is the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! My six month old puppy Zeke loved her and had such a great time with her and her dog JoJo. She kept me up-to-date on how things were going and sent pictures every day. She stayed at my house and when I returned, it was like I never left… She had cleaned everything up!! She is fantastic! Highly recommended!”

“Tenisha did a great job with my senior dog. Good communication throughout my time away. She was able to administer his medication twice a day. Very reliable. My dog was very relaxed when I got home. Highly recommend! Thanks Tenisha.”

“Haley was super responsive and did a wonderful job pet sitting two poms. One of the poms is a little anxious and I was super impressed that he liked Haley right away. Would book again!”


“Deborah did an incredible job with both Russell and Lolo. She provided plenty of updates, and made sure they both stuck to their routine. It also rained just about every day we were gone and both the dogs and the house stayed very clean. Can’t recommend Deborah enough and would definitely book again.”

“Kimberly was great!! She watched our baby girls for a whole week. She messaged us everyday, sent pictures and walked them. She went out of her way to get them a doggie birthday cake since we were gone during their birthday. So thoughtful! They loved her and her walks!”

“Daniel was such an incredible sitter. He took care of our dog over a long holiday weekend while my wife and I got married. He even went as far as to bring our dog to the wedding venue for quick post ceremony pictures. He was very kind, communicative, easy to work with and good with our dog. We would absolutely recommend Daniel!!”

“Tim was awesome!! He went above and beyond to keep my 60lb recently rescued Doberman comfortable and in as much of a routine as possible. He’s definitely an animal person, you can just tell by his demeanor. My very skeptical, anxious pup too to him immediately. Will be rebooking in the future!”

“Kylee did an amazing job with our anxious pup! She couldn’t have been more patient or inventive, and our house was in great condition upon our return. We’ll definitely use her again!”

“We booked for Christina for house/dog sitting over the weekend and had a great experience. She sent daily updates of our dogs and left our house in great condition. We'd definitely book with Christina again.”

“What a delight! Our pup Coach had an absolute blast! Thank you very much! Madeline is a fantastic pup sitter - she watched our boy in our home and made us feel overjoyed that he was in great hands.”

“Start to finish, Laurie was wonderful to work with; great communicator plus attentive, kind, and patient with my spunky pup (& he’s a handful!) Highly recommend for dependable, no-stress caretaking.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of my babies! I am so grateful for your attention to detail, thorough communication and picture updates! Highly recommend Jeannie and will rebook ❤️”

“Andrea was such a wonderful sitter for our holiday weekend! She was so responsive and engaging, and I felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of our fur babies while we were away. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for amazing care!”

Karalynn cared for our dog and 2 cats while we attended a wedding out of state. We cannot thank her enough. Karalynn is communicative, loving, and hard-working. She incorporated all the care plans we left for our family without a hiccup. And she sent some really cute and funny photos! She honestly made the entire experience of leaving your family at home easy. Thank you so much, Karalynn.

This was our first time leaving our dogs with Vivian and she was wonderful! Our dogs really connected with her, including one that's a bit on the shy side. She left our home in great shape, is incredibly responsive, and sent photos and updates along the way that put my mind at ease. Highly recommend her!

Molly took wonderful care of our two cats: administering medications, playing, and giving them time and attention. Molly has a wealth of experience with animals, and is patient and thoughtful. We came home to two happy, healthy cats, and we’ll be booking with Molly again for our next long trip. It’s a huge relief to find a pet sitter that you trust completely!

Richard was fantastic! He took wonderful care of our two Frenchies and our home while we were away for a long weekend. It was clear that the pups were comfortable with him and got plenty of love, attention, and care. Richard was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease knowing everything was in good hands. We came home to two happy Frenchies and a clean, well-cared-for house. We’d absolutely have Richard house sit for us again and highly recommend him!

Fantastic human being who will love your pets like they are her own. Lucia was an amazing communicator, knowledgeable, and all around awesome. I don’t want to write too good of a review because then she will have too many clients!!! Anyone would be lucky to have her sit for them!

Leo did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were out of town for a week. He sent lots of updates and pictures and they were happy and well cared for when we returned. He was also glad to help with bringing in mail and packages, which was a lovely bonus.
