“(Disclosure: Jill is a family member) Jill has watched our dog Lilo for years and has always taken great care of her. This time, we were in Cancun for a week and left our dog in her very capable hands. Lilo has a medical condition that requires her to receive oral medication (via pill and syringe) as well as having very strict food instructions, and Jill is comfortable with whatever we need her to do. She left our house as clean as when we left it, and even watered our newly planted grass and landscaping. I highly recommend Jill for whatever your pet needs!”
“The most marvelous dog and cat sitter ever!!!!!! Stephanie made me not worry at all on our vacation!!! I would use her anytime I need someone! Top notch!”
“Brianna did an amazing job and did well with our dogs. She was accommodating and understanding of their needs. She does only work within a certain radius, though, and neither of us realized that until too close to time. For this reason, we will not book again.”
“Lisa was wonderful! She came to do a meet and greet and Poppy was instantly drawn to her. She sent updates and kept me informed and I felt very comfortable having her there to watch Poppy while we were away. I would definitely recommend. Thank you Lisa!!”

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Samantha provided for my dogs and cat during our recent trip. From the moment we met, it was clear that she is a true animal lover with a passion for ensuring pets are comfortable and well-cared for. My 3 dogs and cat felt at ease immediately, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Throughout the stay, Samantha was highly communicative, sending daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. She made sure to follow my pets routine and even went the extra mile by taking my shepherds on walks daily. When I returned, my pets were calm, happy, and healthy – a clear sign of the excellent care they all received. I would absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Hannah was great! Both my dog and cat are typically very nervous of new people, but they warmed up to Hannah very fast! She sent great updates and tons of pictures which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with her next time I go away!”
“Brandi and Lu were excellent dog sitters. Our dogs fell in love with them immediately and I felt at ease knowing they were in good hands. We needed help with a sitter for a long trip last minute and they were so accommodating. Not only were they over communicative and followed all the instructions for our special girls, they were lovely house guests. They went above and beyond, and even brushed my fluffy dog. But most of all, my girls were happy. Will definitely be having them again! 🙏🏻🙏🏻”
