“Jonathan did a great job watching my dog Samara. Her and his Ivy got along on initial introduction. He sent pictures throughout her stay and followed feeding instructions well. Looking forward to booking him again!”
2. Georgilin T.
“My little guy is really anxious and Georgilin took amazing care of him, even hand fed him his food so that he would eat. She sent me lots of updates and pictures and I could tell he felt comfortable in her care. He also got along well her dog and made a new friend! I am so glad I found someone to take care of him like their own while I am away.”
3. Birol M.
“B was fantastic with Bali. He was super responsive and sent me adorable photos and videos of my baby throughout the stay to show all the fun he was having and put my mind at ease. He also offered suggestions to feed and care for my baby. Would recommend B for his loving and attentive care.”
4. Noah W.
“Hands down best sitter we have had - Noah sent us pics of Rocky and his pup Ginsy often and was flexible with our pickup and drop of schedule and changes. Rocky and Ginsy got along great which made me feel more at ease during my travel.”
5. Iliana M.
“Iliana was wonderful! Took such great care of our doggo and sent lots of pictures. Our dogs became best friends. I joked our dog didn't want to come home because she was so happy and had so much fun. Thanks Iliana!!!”
6. Yuhan Z.
“I am really cautious about who watches my dog. Yuhan put me at ease, provides updates, pictures and has excellent communication! Will book again for sure!”
7. Melanie & Jake T.
“Melanie & Jake took wonderful care of my pup! They were thoughtful in the questions they asked about her when we first met and I could tell by the messages and pictures they sent that they won her over during her stay! I'd be happy to bring Rory back for another stay with Archie, Melanie, and Jake!”
8. Kiara B.
“Kiara is an absolute godsend. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with my pup when she tore her paw pad right before I had to leave town - she couldn’t be around other dogs because she would want to play, but it’s hard to find a sitter who can isolate your dog, especially on a holiday weekend! Kiara did just that and tried to stay with Rosie as much as she could so she never got lonely. I could just tell from the numerous, wonderful pictures and videos sent that Rosie was having the time of her life. On top of this, I don’t have a car, so was planning on walking Rosie to a sitter. When she hurt her paw, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do or how I was getting her there. Without hesitation, Kiara said she would pick her up. Even when my flight home got delayed 8 hours and a 6 PM arrival time turned into 11:30 PM, Kiara STILL dropped Rosie off for me just before midnight. I can’t say enough good things about her!!”
9. Julie & Peter W.
“Julie and Peter are fantastic!! Our dog is recovering from a broken leg and they took great care of her! We didn’t have to worry about a thing from the moment we met them. We will definitely use them in the future. Thank you again for taking care of Zoey!”
10. Kat T.
“We are so thankful to have met Kat! Kat kept us updated on Peaty while we were away. Peaty came back from his stay with Kat so relaxed! Thanks, Kat!”
11. John D.
“John was really great to deal with - communicated quickly and often when watching my dog and was available pretty last minute which was super helpful. Made time for a meet and greet which was also really nice for ease of mind.”
12. Brittany D.
“Brittany took really good care of my pup. She was very responsive when I texted her to ask how he was doing. She cared for him like he was her own. My dog stops eating in new places but she mixed in some of her own wet food to make sure he wasn’t starving. Highly recommend her and would definitely be using her services in the future. She’s awesome!”
13. Christina W.
“Hands down, Christina was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She was friendly during our meet and greet and was prepared for all of my questions, especially regarding Toby’s sensitivity with small kids and some men. I never had any doubt that Toby was receiving expert and loving care with her, and I definitely hope to book with her again!!”
14. Joy S.
“Joy was great with my dog! Very responsive and sent me lots of pictures. She also assisted with pick up and drop off, and my dog came home happy. I’ll definitely book again with her in the future. :)”
15. Christie & Drew C.
“Christie and Drew were great! They were able to accommodate my schedule with last minute booking and were responsive and friendly. My dog Seven warmed up to them quickly and I felt like he fit right into their family. Seven enjoyed playing and hanging out with their dog Margot as well as the other dogs that were there for pet sitting. I'm also glad that Seven was able to be a part of their pack walks! I will be recommending Christie and Drew and would book again with them!”
16. Destiny P.
“I’m always worried when I need to use a new dog sitter for my boy Finn. Finn has stress when he is away from home and needed medication, but Destiny was great in following care instructions and communicating. This helped alleviate my concerns and I will definitely be using her again for future dog sitting needs.”
17. Deena S.
“Deena is awesome! Love how flexible she is. I booked her last minute and she responded within minutes. She is very reliable and is great with my dog 🐶”
18. Marquis D.
“Marquis was wonderful with my fur baby. He kept me updated on his eating, playing and behavior. Marquis even incorporated Goliath into his daily life taking him out on the town .”
19. Chloe J.
“I highly recommend Chloe to watch your fur baby! My pup Po received the care and attention he needed! She is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. You will not be disappointed and I will be using her services in the future!”
