She was great watching my dog for the day while I was away! Took my dog on walks and runs and played with her toys! Always responded quickly to my messages and provided a few updates during the day! I would definitely book her services again

Wow! I cannot recommend Aidan enough. He did an amazing job watching our min pin, Reina. She is getting older (now 16 years) so we wanted to keep her in the house while we were gone. Aidan responded right away to our inquiry, and came to our house the same day to meet Reina. He sent us regular updates during his stay and kept our house very tidy. If I could give him 10 stars I would! We will definitely be using him again.

Kimberly was amazing! I’ve only used her once so far and I am ready to book her again! She was excellent with my anxious dog, was respectful of my home, sent lots of pictures and updates and left a detailed accounting of their activities for me when I returned. I would not hesitate to book Kimberly to dog sit in my home again. I feel so fortunate to have found her!

A special thanks to Carrie for staying over and taking such great care of my senior pup, Ozzie, for a few days. Ozzie is primarily blind and partially deaf, and although he sleeps a lot now, he also knows what he wants and will let you know, such as ice cubes in his water, homecooked meals, and he does not like to be left alone for too long. He also takes daily eye and allergy meds. I was worried about going away without him because the past COVID year has increased his separation anxiety. After all, I now work from home and haven't traveled in over a year. Luckily Carrie put all my fears to rest. She sent multiple updates, and Ozzie looked great in all the photos. She let me know how he was feeling and took great care of him. I know this because Ozzie was calm and not stressed out when I came home, and (trust me), Ozzie would have let me know if he had a bad experience! I highly recommend Carrie to anyone who needs a trustworthy, caring, kind, and intelligent pet sitter. It makes a difference to know your pup is safe when you have to travel for business or pleasure! Thanks again, Carrie! I will call you soon!

Sarah was great with our 2 dogs! Our lab got an ear infection right before our trip started and Sarah gave her all of her extra meds and even had to clean out her ear numerous times. Our place was super clean when we got back. I would definitely recommend her and use her in the future.

Erika was amazing! I had a last minute trip and she was able to set up a meet and greet right away before house sitting. She took excellent care of Charlie & Leo, communicated frequently, and even did some cleaning before she left. I will definitely be reaching out to Erika again to care for my pups.

Kathleen was an absolutely amazing sitter! Higgins loved her from the moment they met. He was so excited to see her when Kathleen picked up our key. He can be a bit much some times (big bulldog personality, stubborn, selective hearing…), but Kathleen took it all in stride and took care of him just like she would her own pup. Throughout the stay Kathleen stayed in communication and provided plenty of updates/pictures so I knew how things were going. She gave him lots of love, pets, and attention (his fave things) and made sure he had a wonderful vacation of his own. When Higgins developed a interdigital cyst, Kathleen immediately noticed it and started to treat it. By the time I got home from vacation it was almost gone thanks to her treatment! I would definitely book Kathleen again! Knowing that Higgins had an amazing time with her, she’s great at communicating, and she’s a great person who loves dogs, gives me such peace of mind.

Kawayne did a great job taking care of our dog and was very flexible for such a fairly last minute request. Our dog can be anxious with new people and Kawayne was very patient to allow our dog to acclimate to him the best way possible. Would use again and highly recommend

Allison was an amazing sitter for our last minute trip. Her pup Ari got along well with our youngest dog and Allison had no issues caring for our diabetic senior dog. Our youngest dog can be rambunctious and very affectionate/Velcro-dog which may not be a lot of peoples cup of tea. Allison was compassionate and sweet with Bella and Hulk and we would definitely use her again in the future!
