Christina is a very caring and flexible cat sitter. We appreciated the way she went the extra mile to make our cats feel comfortable and supported when we were away (they have some separation anxiety issues). Her communication was excellent and we felt like they were in good hands throughout. We also appreciated all the photos and status updates. We will definitely book Christina again!!

Jovelle was a wonderful cat sitter! She house sat and took care of my very social, playful cat while I was away. Jovelle is an outstanding communicator, which made me feel comfortable and at ease. She sent me photos and a detailed update multiple times per day, which included mealtime details and updates on play time. I came home to a spotless house and a very happy kitty! I recommend Jovelle for pet sitting!

Makaylah was great for Marcus. I really appreciated that she stuck to his puppy routine while I was gone so that he right away felt comfortable and safe with her. Even the staff in the front office of my building remarked how happy Marcus looked whenever they saw her coming in and out of the building with him on walks. She also went the extra mile and washed the sheets and remade the bed before she left. I will definitely request her for Marcus again!

Stephanie was amazing with Ginny. I had to travel for a work trip and Stephanie agreed to watch Ginny on a short notice. What stood out was that Stephanie made efforts for meet and greet so we both could feel comfortable with the arrangements. I received regular updates and Ginny was well taken care of. Thank you so much.

Quanece and Malik were great! Our dogs have previously been more anxious but during their time with Quanece and Malik they were back to their typical behavior and temperament much sooner. They clearly enjoyed their time and knowing they were so well taken care of helped alleviate our concerns while away. We look forward to having them spend time with our pups again soon!

Stella had an extended stay with our pup and she was so wonderful at making sure our baby felt comfortable while we were gone. It was our first time being away so we were understandably anxious about how Philomena would do but Stella sent us loads of updates, photos and videos. Our pup had a wonderful staycation all thanks to her!!!

Shakira was a kind and thoughtful sitter for my 4-year-old Pit Bull mix. She came the day prior to meet my dog, ask questions, and did everything as asked on the day-of. She also helped me out a lot as this was a last-minute request. All in all, Shakira is a great dog sitter and highly recommended!

Best dog sitters ever! 🥹 We have two rescue dogs, who have very unique needs. Haiku in particular we had a lot of anxiety about leaving, and this was our first time having an in home dog sitter for her. She has a somewhat severe case of anxiety, and requires a lot of work, actually being afraid of walks, people, everything really, and especially getting her to use the potty can be so hard because she is stubborn to do anything other than relax in her safe space after previous trauma she’d endured. Most dogs sitters turned us down after hearing about our dogs’ needs and no one else was able to do in home house sitting, and we weren’t even sure we’d be able to leave for the week to visit family. But Anna and Connor ended up being a god sent because not only were they able to house sit but after meeting Anna for the meet and greet I knew she would do a great job. They also must have done such a great job making Haiku comfortable and they were able to have some, what my partner and I would consider “wins” with her such as using the potty in the backyard which we are still working on. It seems like they even went above and beyond, using special feeders to see if she’d eaten and making special time for her to try to get her out of her shell and feeling comfortable/safe. I can stress enough this was no easy feat and leaving the dogs was my biggest stressor going away for a week, but with all Anna and Connor did for our dogs, it ended up being the least of my concerns, because my partner and I knew that our dogs were being treated with the most utmost care. In fact, Snoopy usually sleeps on the couch but was able to sleep in the guest bed while Anna and Connor were staying here so I think for that and other reasons their watching him was actually a treat for him, which is great because our Snoopy has attachment issues and used to really suffer from separation anxiety when I would leave. Not to mention (!) our flight was tragically cancelled in the middle of the night and Anna happened to be awake at 6am (lol) to immediately reassure us she would be able to care for the dogs an extra day while we were stuck in Colorado!!! What an amazing two dog sitters I can’t say enough I am flabbergasted lol. Anna sent me updates and pictures pretty much every day she was watching the pups, and her thorough communication and questions showed her thoughtfulness and care for the animals she watches. I can’t recommend these two enough and if we even travel again I will be quick to book them again if they would be willing to hang with my insane dogs again.

Logan was awesome. Super communicative with my partner while I was incommunicado, took great care of my house, and even took Ruby on some extra field trips out of the city to stretch her legs. I came home to a very happy and healthy pup. Highly, highly recommend!

Kaylah did a great job with my pups. I returned to happy, well loved pups. She was very communicative and responsive through text while I was abroad. Kaylah was a very considerate guest and I returned to my home just as I left it. I appreciated her kindness and communication. Would happily work with Kaylah again.

Molly took wonderful care of both our dog and cat! We chose Molly for her background working at a vet clinic. Molly was calm and confident giving medication to both pets, which really put us at ease. She kept our energetic husky boy active with regular walks, made sure our senior cat got gentle stretchies in and kept things peaceful between the two of them. She even tidied up after our dog’s never-ending shedding. You can tell she genuinely cares, both of our pets adore her. My partner and I both highly recommend Molly for any of your dog/cat house sitting needs! 10/10

This was first time having Taylor sit for my boy Captain, and she was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my apartment for a week, and everything went great. She came over and met Captain before the actual stay, and was so accommodating to Captain’s needs. She sent plenty of updates and photos throughout the week, and she also left my apartment spotless for when I got home. I am so thankful I found her, and I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Captain loved her, and she’ll always be my first choice from now on for watching him. Thank you again!

Outstanding! Marcella went above and beyond! Right from the start she noticed my door handle was loose and fixed it. She updated me often, walked my dog Pepper and kept her occupied and safe. She even comforted her when there was a crazy storm outside (she usually doesn’t care about storms) 10/10. She is so sweet and kind. Would absolutely recommend!

Mathilde was excellent - she was very communicative throughout and went above and beyond, trying to make sure my dog Molly (who can be picky eating) ate her food and took her medicine, and got her fill of walks and outdoor time. She also comforted Molly during a thunderstorm and shared great photos from the walk. Mathilde is a superstar!
