1. Ari H.

“Ari was absolutely amazing watching our two Goldens! He walked them every day, sent us text updates and pictures of the boys, and was very communicative. Ari also left our house spotless! I would highly recommend, and we will be requesting his services again! Thank you Ari!”


2. Andy R.

“Andy is the best pet sitter any pet parent can ask for. We had to go out of the country for two weeks, the longest we’ve been away from home and pet. Andy took care of our home and looked after our cat during the entire time, playing with her, keeping her engaged and sending us constant updates and pictures of her. By the end of the stay the two had bonded which was really surprising to us considering our cat gets nervous when we leave. Highly recommend Andy and we’ll definitely want him over for any of our future pet sitting needs.”


3. Leonard W.


“Leonard is now family to me. He treats my dogs as if they were his own. The level of love and kindness he gives to them shows how truly amazing he is. His daily updates and photos help me get through being away from them and seeing them so happy warms my heart.”


4. Erik C.

“Erik is the best. He's watched our dog a couple times now. Titan is always super happy when we come back. I can tell he's been treated well. Plus Erik follows my instructions carefully, which mean a lot. Super grateful for Erik, thank you!”


5. Samantha S.

“Samantha is a warm and playful cat whisperer who also delivered daily oral meds to our lovely special needs kitty. Many thanks for helping us out and with short notice!”




6. Laura G.
“I have a skittish golden doodle, Stella. Stella takes a long time to warm up to strangers. She met Laura and took to her very quickly. Laura’s gentle, calm nature worked magic on Stella. Laura patiently waited for Stella to come to her, and she did! Laura is lovely and kind. I think dogs sense that. I know Stella does! Tamara T”


7. Rosa C.
“Nina is an amazing caregiver. She's worked for my family for years as a housekeeper, babysitter, as well as dog sitter. My kids are now grown and flown, but she still looks after our beloved dog. Sometimes it feels like he loves Nina more than he loves us. He goes crazy when she comes to the house. And whenever she leaves he tries to follow her out to the car. Sometimes she takes him for sleepovers at her house, even when we don't need a dog sitter. She just loves him that much. And before Mort, I had two other rescue dogs. She was equally great with them. When each of their long, happy lives, came to an end, Nina made a special trip to our house to say a last goodbye. Her heart broke along with ours. She truly loves dogs with all her heart.”




8. Madelyn Z.


“Madelyn was great for watching Benji in my home. My dog was happy and my house was just as I left it. I'd definitely have Madelyn help again next time! :)”


9. Leyla R.
“Leyla is the sweetest with pets! She loves them and takes amazing care of them. She has a special connection with animals. I would highly recommend Leyla to take care of your fur babies!”


10. Ryane & David L.
“Ryane and Dave have sat for our dogs a couple of times and they're great. One of them is a tempramental chihuahua, but they handled him no problem at all. They bring a wealth of formal education in various types of animal studies as well, which gives them a level of understanding of animal behavior that far exceeds most petsitters you're going to find. Definitely recommend!”




11. Toni D.

“Toni was great. She came over early to meet the pups and go through everything, and left the house in perfect condition afterwards. Would highly recommend.”


12. Brenda A.

“Brenda was an absolute professional!! She went above and beyond the call of duty and washed my puppies bedding, took extra good care of the home and of course both of my senior dogs. Thank you so much for all your care and attention to my sweet girls!!”


13. Pat R.

“Pat came through for us in a pinch and was a fantastic housesitter! Pancake loved her and she stepped in to help with a couple non-dog related issues as well. Thanks so much Pat!”


14. Rose R.

“Rose made my work trip stress free. I never worried about my two dogs in her care. She even managed them in a rain storm when dogs prefer to never go outside. One dogs is elderly and needs patience and the other a foster and needs a firm hand. I came home to happy pups and a well tended home. I highly recommend Rose to anyone looking for home and dog care. She's amazing.”


15. Alana M.
“Alana is my go to sitter for my dog Liza and my cat Vandy! She is a great communicator, sends regular check-ins/updates, and overall makes me feel at ease whenever I go out of town because I know my babies are in good hands. She will go the extra mile to make sure your pets are happy and you can tell she truly loves and cares about them. Alana is the best!”


16. Annette J.

“Annette was terrific! Very detail-orientated and communicative. My dogs seemed happy and comfortable with her. Annette sent regular photos of my dogs and the house was in perfect condition when we returned home.”


17. Lydia P.
“Lydia is wonderful. We hate leaving our furry babies but we always feel good about leaving them with her. She was a real trooper this last visit and dealt with a rain-averse dog during a rainy week and a cat who doesn't always keep everything inside the litter box. She went above and beyond to clean the house and change the linens for us before our return. Would highly recommend her to any pet parent.”


18. Ryan M.

“Ryan house sat and watched our two dogs for the first time. He took great care of the dogs and house. It was nice to come home to happy dogs! Will use him again!”


19. Jonathan L.
“Jonathan is a dog whisperer. My dog gets so excited as soon as she sees him. She jumps up & loves him. He is very patient & aware when Kinnie is in his care. I highly recommend him for caring for your dog!”




20. Alan C.

“Excellent Professional that we feel very confident leaving our 2german shepards st home with Highly recommend for both walks and home sitting”
