McKenna did an excellent job with our high-energy Aussie, who can be a bit anxious sometimes. She was super communicative, punctual, and shared lots of photos and updates. This was the first time we left him overnight with someone other than family, and it was great to know he was in good hands with McKenna. She also left our house as clean, if not cleaner, than it was before. Excited to work with her again soon!

I really don’t trust any dog sitter like I trust Ray to take care of our dog. He’s a great boy, but doesn’t want pets and snuggles all the time and Ray is happy to let him just be him. It’s actually so hard to find! Ray left our house clean and well looked after. Will definitely keep going back to Ray!

Jackie did an amazing job taking care of my little dude while I was away! All of her updates gave me peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my trip, plus, I came home to a happy and tired pup and my place in perfect condition - I truly could not ask for more. Frasier and I can’t wait to have her back!

Plenty of exercise, thoughtful attention, and consistent updates throughout the weekend. I’d definitely book with them again!

Joanna has been my sweet boy’s daily dog walker for 2 years, and I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her. She has become one of the most trusted people to my very reactive, shy dog - a true miracle worker! From her abundance of pictures, detailed updates, and vast experience, she’s truly a dog owner’s best friend. Thank you, Joanna!

Morgan was my life saver! I needed a last minute sitter two days before my 6 day trip. I reached out to Morgan and she was very helpful from the start. She was very responsive and respectful in the meet in greet. She took care of my home and dog for 5 nights. My dog and her got along super well, which was a breath of fresh air since we dog is picky about people! Came home to a clean house and happy dog! Thank you Morgan, would highly recommend!

This is our second time that Ray has cared for our sweet doggie in our home. She's a really caring sitter. She's experienced, has good judgment and loves animals, and she left our house in great shape. Having her take care of Honey in our home gave us real peace of mind. We will definitely ask her to watch Honey again.

Angie provided wonderful care for our two dogs, both of which have their own quirks (one is a senior dog with anxiety during thunderstorms and the other is a sassy velcro dog). She was extremely communicative and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our fur babies were well cared for while we were away. She also took amazing care of our house and left it very tidy upon leaving. We would highly recommend Angie to anyone looking for caring, quality pet sitting.

Annie was amazing!!! She really went above and beyond for our pets and our house while we were away. We got lots of updates and cute photos, she alerted us right away when she noticed one cat didn't want her dinner just to check if that was okay/normal, and even taught our corgi a new trick! All three pets seemed very happy and comfortable when we got home. We will definitely book Annie in the future when we need some pet help!

A week before our trip our kitty's condition got worse and she required much more care than we had originally talked with Elizabeth about. She took extra time to drop in and walk through all the new things so she'd be taken care of while we were away! We really appreciated all of her updates and she did so much to care for our sick kitty. She even learned how to give her fluids!

Gabby did an amazing job house sitting for me. Rhis was the first time leaving the fur baby for more than a few hours. Luna is a rescue who went through a couple fosters before coming to me. I'm very sensitive to her worrying she was going through that again which is why I wanted an at my home dog sitter. Gabby was able to accommodate my less than 24 hour notice. She came over to meet me, Luna and get aquant3d with the home and routine. She sent regular updates and photos of Lunabelle, who couldn't have looked happier. I came home to an immaculate house, my dog, home, and plants were carwd for in my absence. Gabby is a genuine person who truly cares about the animals and lher responsibility as a caretaker. I will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone else.
