Mark went above and beyond, not just walking and caring for my dog, but taking him for road trips around the area during a weeklong stay. Watching him and my dog interact, it’s clear that my dog really liked him and that Mark combined gentle caring with firm direction in an optimal way. Mark also left my house cleaner than he found it, which was a nice bonus. Would wholly recommend Mark if you need a safe set of hands to dog/house sit.

I can’t say enough good things about Bradley! I needed someone with experience handling bully breeds, and Bradley was exactly what I was looking for. Some people might find my dog intimidating at first glance, but to us, he’s a big baby—and Bradley totally got that. Not only did he understand our dog, but he welcomed him with open arms and so much love. His communication was always fast and clear, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. And the way he loved on our dog truly made it feel like we were leaving him with family. As a self-proclaimed crazy dog mom, I can confidently say: if you want someone who will treat your pup like their own, Bradley is the one. Highly recommend! Also bonus points to him for treating our house with respect.

Gabrielle was the perfect housesitter for our dog. They met with us ahead of time to walk through the house and meet our dog, showed up on time, gave frequent updates, walked our dog regularly, took fantastic care of our house and cleaned up after themselves, and were extremely communicative and responsive throughout our trip. We would definitely work with Gabrielle again and highly recommend them to others.

Dwayne was our first ever pet sitter, and he was awesome! We have 2 large dogs and 1 is cautious with new experiences. Dwayne was incredibly patient and after a day, the dogs both loved him. He sent us regular updates with pictures and video so we knew how they were all faring. Thank you! I highly recommend him.

Lilly-Christina stepped up literally the night before we had to leave due to another sitter’s last-minute cancellation. We came home to a happy dog and all of our packages brought inside. Lilly-Christina sent pictures and videos of our dog throughout the stay. 10/10!

Aliyah watched my four pets (2 cats and 2 dogs) for 6 days while I was out of state and she was amazing! Some of my pets are elderly and have some medical issues. Aliyah followed all my instructions and went above and beyond when there was a little bit of an issue towards the end of the vacation (just dogs being dogs, nothing Aliyah did wrong or could have prevented). I will absolutely utilize her services as long as she offers them!

Rebecca was a fantastic sitter for our high-maintenance bulldog while we were away for a week! She’s maintains excellent communication and shared helpful updates every day. On top of all that, she was a true godsend when our trip was plagued by various delays and she handled some last-minute changes to the schedule with so much grace. She was also simply an excellent house-sitter, having had to navigate some surprise (to us) snow! Thank you for your help, Rebecca!!!

I can’t recommend Bri highly enough! From the moment we met, I knew my pet was in great hands. Bri is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. Whether it was daily walks, overnight stays, or just check-ins, they always kept me updated with photos and thoughtful messages that gave me total peace of mind. My dogs absolutely adore Bri, and it's such a relief to have someone I trust to care for them like family. If you're looking for a responsible, kind, and professional pet sitter, look no further. Bri is truly the best! — Morgan A.

MJ was outstanding. Our regular sitter wasn't able to watch our dogs for our 10-day vacation, but MJ was able to step-in and take care of them like they were her own. She also took care of our tortoise and watered our plants while we were gone. I can't recall the last time I was on vacation and not worrying about our dogs back home. I would book MJ again in a heartbeat.
