“Gabbi is great with animals. She is extremely caring, and I trust her with my furbabies, which is saying a lot, coming from a helicopter furmom! You should book her for the services you need, without a doubt!”
4. Ashley C.
“Ashley was great. She took great care of our dogs when one of them came down with a very messy health issue! She kept our place spotless and even drove us to the airport!! Would definitely love to have her come house sit again.”
5. Blakely W.
“I cannot say enough how happy I was with Blakey! It was our first time leaving them with someone in our home and my 2 dogs didn’t even act like I had been gone when I came back! I’m pretty sure they were happy being spoiled by Blakey! Will definitely book her in the future!”
6. Autumn C.
“Autumn did a great job house sitting and caring for our three dogs for a week. Izzy, Roxi and Riley are very sweet but require care and attention. Izzy is the most high maintenance, she is a 5 year old Brussels Griffon and needs medication 7 times a day. Roxi is our 12yr old Min Schnauzer and has some special dietary needs and Riley is our two year old Lab with a lot of energy. Autumn took care of all of their needs and contacted me if there were any issues to discuss. She followed all of the advice we gave her on managing the dogs. In addition the home was in good order when we returned. I can recommend Autumn for house sitting and dog sitting for all types of dogs.”

10. Ellie A.
“Ellie is amazing! She just stayed with our pittie, Jackson. She did such a great job. Jackson has stomach issues, so his diet is a bit complicated. She had no issues dealing with that. The house was immaculate when we returned home. She even washed the bedding she used, and put it back on the bed! We will definitely book her again!!!!”
11. Bailey C.
“We couldn't be happier with the care Bailey provided for our dogs, aka the boys. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and clearly loves dogs. It was clear they were getting lots of love and attention. It feels great knowing that when we couldn’t be there with our fur babies, that Bailey loved them like we do!”
12. Gracie S.
“Gracie has always been a huge animal lover. We’ve never not been going down the road and not had to stop and help an animal in need. She’s volunteered at vet clinics and the vets office where i work and never fails to make a good friend with an animal. She has 3 dogs and a rabbit of her own that she is always playing with and teaching new tricks and it really is amazing how easy it is for gracie to bond with animals. She treats animals as if they were her children and we all love that about her. I would never worry about leaving an animal with her because she’s always opening the door to new opportunities with pets and absolutely loves to be active with them. Her yorkie had a litter of puppies and gracie helped deliver the babies and take care of them. Gracie is also a clean freak so if there’s a mess or an animal smells, she doesn’t hesitate to clean up any messes or load them up in a car and go give them a bath. Overall, gracie is very dependable and never makes anybody second guess anything.”
13. Melody F.
“Melody was amazing! She house/dog sat for us and took good care of our two pups. She sent lots of pictures of the pups which I appreciated! You could tell they were in good hands.”
14. Shaylei B.
“If you want someone who will treat your pets like prince or princess Shaylei is the person for you! She is great with all animals and shows them lots of love and care. She will always put the care of your pets as a top priority. You wont regret having her care for your pets.”
15. Andrea A.
“Andrea provided much comfort to us as our animals were well taken care of while we were away. She was reliable, responsible and communicated regularly with us. She took great care of the house as well as our dog and cat. We would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”
16. Ally L.
“Ally is very reliable and responsible person. She has her own dog and is a good dog mom. Everytime she sees any kind of animal, she smiles from ear to ear. Ally is also very honest. I would trust her to watch any animal.”
17. Amelia S.
“This was first booking with Amelia, and could not have asked for any better care of Juney and our home. Will definitely look forward to future bookings with her.”
18. Ashlee M.
“Ashlee has pet sit for me on several occasions and I would highly recommend her. She has both stayed at the house for longer trips and also come in several times a day for shorter trips. Very responsible, good communication, always on time and she took very great care of my fur babies - they absolutely love spending time with her.”
19. Sara C.
“Sara was so great with our dogs! One of our pups takes a little time to warm up to people and she was so patient with him and I felt like they were in good hands while we were gone.”
