Kyle took great care of my pup over the weekend. He made sure my dog’s normal routine was followed and spent lots of time giving him attention. Would recommend and will be booking again in the future.

Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend

Averi did a fantastic job house sitting our wide variety of pets while we were out of town! She communicated with us throughout or travels, sent photos, and ensured everyone was taken care of. Highly recommend her services to others in the area! She cared for our three dogs, large pig, chickens, duck and parrot!

Amber took great care of our two dogs and house while we were visiting family. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates. Our one pup is a little more anxious than the other and she was very patient with him as he warmed up to her. She also left our house very clean and brought in our packages and watered our plants!

Lynne was a great house sitter and did an excellent job taking care of our fur baby. She shared photos every day and even left a sweet message to welcome us home. It was comforting knowing our geriatric lab had company, especially in the evening, while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Lynne and look forward to rebooking with her in the future!

Amanda is amazing! She’s stayed with our animals twice now and we’ll keep booking her anytime we’re out of town. The animals have always been so well cared for and our house perfectly clean. She was super flexible when we left town last week amidst the water debacle and had to stay at another location with our animals. She’s very communicative and always sends updates with pictures throughout the day. We can’t recommend her enough.

Whitney was a wonderful house and dog sitter, she stayed at our home with our dog for a couple days and endured the Richmond water outage with an incredibly positive attitude the whole time. She provided updates as requested and was great at keeping up the communication. We hope to be able to have her watch Remy when needed again in the future!

Andrew was everything we want in a dog sitter. Kind, thoughtful, conscientious and funny. Our Oona can be a stubborn hound and we really appreciate him working with her quirks. He was flexible in meeting up with us to ensure we were comfortable leaving her, and he left the house better than he found it! A++

Alexas took amazing care of Cooper during the 5 nights I was away! She was communicative, followed all instructions and left the house nice and tidy. Cooper even ran straight into the guest room when we woke up the morning after I got back looking for her!! I will absolutely be using Alexas again!!
