“Peggy is very nice and responsive. She took good care of my dog during drop-in visits. She sent me many pictures of my dog and gave me some details how my dog was doing while we were out of town. I’m satisfied with her service and I would like to highly recommend her to anyone who are looking for a dog walker/drop-in visits and so on.”

5. Michelle L.
“Michelle has been taking care of my boys all summer and she's the absolute best! She stayed in communication with me the entire time, and let me know about everything going on in the house, including when they decided to eat paper towel for dinner 😂 She's extremely dependable and trustworthy with a flexible schedule. Book with her! You won't regret it!”
6. Asuka D.
“Asuka dropped in to visit my three cats while I was away for the holidays, and she was absolutely amazing! Highly professional, great at communication, punctual, and so caring for the needs of each of my cats. She left me lots of photos and really went above and beyond by scooping litter and cleaning up all of the messes they made. She let me know exactly what was going on each time she dropped in and I was impressed when she told me how she handles meeting spicy or nervous cats (a couple of mine are!) All in all, my cats were in great hands when I was away and I will definitely book Asuka again next time I take a trip. :) thanks again, Asuka!!”

12. Melanie & Veronica V.
“Meanie and Veronica took wonderful care of my cats. They managed to get the litter Robot working so the cats didn't need to use the regular litter box while I was away. They sent photos daily and provided regular updates. My cats looked well, were purring and affectionate after I returned home. I would be happy to use their services again.”
13. Anscia B.
About: As a little girl, I've always loved animals, especially dogs. My passion grew as I got older and decided to become a dog mom to a beautiful lab-mix rescue pup who loves adventure. I'm currently a brand marketing freelancer & Squarespace web designer with a flexible schedule. Walking your furbaby will allow me to take a break from work and allow the both of us to stretch our legs. I only offer individual services that take place in the furbaby's home or outdoors. I walk my dog 3 - 5 miles per day, so I am up for a short or long walk with your furbaby.
14. Qilin L.
“Qilin did a wonderful job with our cat! She was willing to stop by beforehand for a meet and greet, stayed a long time with him during the drop in visit and was always communicative. Will definitely book again for future times we are out of town!”
15. Elizabeth B.
“We had an exceptional experience with Elizabeth while she took care of our dog, Felix, during our concert trip. From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that Elizabeth is a true animal lover and professional. Felix, who can be a bit shy around new people, warmed up to her almost immediately. Throughout the stay, Elizabeth provided regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Felix was in good hands. She followed all our care instructions meticulously, ensuring Felix’s feeding and playtime were kept to. What really stood out was the extra effort Elizabeth put in to make Felix feel comfortable and happy. She spent quality time playing with him and even managed to get him to engage in some new games, which is no small feat! When we returned, Felix was relaxed and content, which is the best indicator of the excellent care he received. We highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boy, Felix!”
16. Jeffrey R.
“Jeffrey took care of our big 15lb cat, Amor. Jefferey was fantastic and even managed to get Amor to eat treats out of his hand! I can't even get Amor to do that. He was wonderful and we would definitely have Jeffery come back when we go out of town again to take care of our Kitty. Thank you Jefferey!”
17. Kristin T.
“I have know Kristin Trotta for over a decade and she has always had a soft spot for animals. She is reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly attentive. Kristin goes above and beyond to ensure her pets are well-fed and showered with love and attention. She often takes her pets with her for overnight stays and always makes sure they are comfortable. I recommend Kristin to anyone in need of pet care services. She is a wonderful pet sitter and will provide you the peace of mind that your pets are well taken care of while you are away.”
18. Mabelle L.
“If you want care and attention that your dog needs while your away, Mabelle is the right dog walker and sitter. She ensures your baby is well taken care of with fun along the way. She treats every dog like her own fur baby.”
19. Isabella W.
“Bella was so good with Maisie! She made sure Maisie had everything she needed and spent time playing and making sure she got alllll the attention. I loved getting pictures and an update everyday, it really kept my mind at ease while I was away! I cannot recommend Bella enough, she is the best!”
20. Angelica B.
