4. Ash T.
“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”
5. Priya C.
“Priya was able to stay at our place for the week we were away and give Skipper some companionship, exercise and care. Hoping she is available next time we travel and need her help!”
6. Matt L.
“Matt was great- took good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend and sent pics each day we were away. He left our home clean, stripped the bed, and even shoveled our driveway when we got snow while we were gone! Recommended! Would definitely use Matt again.”
7. Bena W.
“Bena was such a gem. She took great care of our very particular dog for the whole weekend we were away. Our dog has separation issues and usually when we come back from trips he can be pretty anxious, but after his weekend with Bena he was calm, cuddly, and relaxed - almost like he liked her more than us! Bena was responsive and compassionate the whole weekend. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anybody!”
8. Alexio S.
“Our second time having Alexio house sit was just as good as the first. He is amazing with our active puppy, Maggie! He is really into training and caring for our dog. We already have him booked for another weekend. We recommend him very highly!!”
9. Anna B.
“Anna was great with our elderly dog. We would definitely leave our dog with her again!”
10. Molly E.

11. Hallie C.
“Hallie sat for my two cats and young dog very last minute, still managed time to squeeze in a meet and greet, and all seems to have gone great! I’ll def call her again.”
12. Iví E.
“Iví is an excellent sitter. My dog was very comfortable with her and loved going on walks. She communicates clearly and it was easy to work with her. I look forward to hiring her again.”
13. Gav D.
“Gav is a wonderful pet sitter. My cat Goggles needs special care due to digestive problems and Gav did a great job following instructions on how and when to feed her and administer her meds. Gav sent me photos of Goggles and updated me on how she was doing while I was away. Thanks Gav- you’re the best! - From Ren & Goggles”
14. Emma G.
“Emma took great care of Fox and Bear! She was very on top of giving Bear his post surgery meds. She played nicely with both pups and gave them lots of snuggles. Everything in our home was meticulously cared for as well. Thanks Emma!”
15. Amad E.
“Both my pup and I had such a great experience with Amed. Such a lovely and dependable person who is clearly a dog whisper! My anxious dog was not fussed at all when we returned. I think he enjoyed his experience very much and we felt like he was well cared for during our absence! Thank you so very much!!”
16. Sydney V.
“Sydney did an amazing job watching our senior dog Gordie! She was very communicative and went above and beyond during her stay! Thank you Sydney!”
17. Donna C.
“I cannot say enough about Donna and the care she took of our little dog Hamish. She was kind, patient and clearly very experienced with dogs. It’s a relief to know you’re pets are safe and well cared for while you are away. I highly recommend Donna.”
18. Rowyn P.
“Rowyn is so focused and critter loving, I highly recommend hiring her to care for your loved one. We were gone for a week and she had only taken care of our pup once before so there was lots of learning for both of them. Rowyn was patient despite our dog’s occasional craziness (occasional right Rowyn 😉?) and made sure I knew how things were going despite a 3-hour time difference. House was better than I left it too! Thanks, Rowyn!”
19. Andy R.
“Andy took great care of Daisy. And so I highly recommend him to care for your pet, too. Attentive. Responsible. Communicative. And attuned to my pet's needs. What more can I say? I wanted someone to stay with Daisy and take care of her like I do (or at least, soothe her in my absence). Andy did just that.”
20. Sailor C.
“Sailor did a great job house sitting for my cat! They were very flexible and a good communicator. My cat loved Sailor and seemed to be in good hands.”
