1. Amanda W.


“Amanda did a fantastic job with Duke. She was attentive, punctual, and communicative. We met beforehand, making sure it was a good fit for both of us. She and Duke hit it off right away during her initial meet up and each time she stopped by. My carbon monoxide detector started beeping during one of her visits and she called me immediately to let me know what was going on and get my input on what to do. I would absolutely rebook her again.”


2. Danielle S.

“I can always rely on Danielle to respond quickly. She’s reliable and is a HUGE stress reliever knowing that my pup is being well taken care of. I’ve rebooked her numerous times now, and she has never disappointed”


3. Elizabeth O.

“Elizabeth was amazing. She loved my dogs as if they were her own. She provided pictures and was punctual to the drop ins. Her communication was great. I would definitely book again.”


4. Tyasia V.

“This was the second time we've hired Tyasia to come and drop-in on our pup and bring him outside in the backyard. Tanky is always so happy when Tyasia has come by. Don't hesitate to choose Tyasia, your animals will thank you :~)”


5. Sophie C.

“Sophie was amazing!! I have an 80lb lab that is pretty high energy with some medical needs. I booked Sophie for drop in visits for 4 days. Sophie was incredibly thorough in her preparation, attention to detail, and communication. She took my dog to the park everyday, sent multiple pictures, and was very intentional about making sure my dog did not get over-heated outside with the current heat wave. If you're looking for someone to treat your pup like they're a VIP at the Four Seasons, book Sophie!”




6. Devon N.

“Great communication and my Remi loves him:)”


7. Susan M.
“Susan has been an absolute life saver in helping us train and care for our Great Dane. Going from a Miniature Yorkie to a Great Dane presented quite a challenge for us, but Susan handled it perfectly and with ease. From simple one word commands and hand commands, to introducing him to new people, to making special treats, she is amazing. Patient and kind, her compassion just shows in all she does. It's who she is. You can feel the love she has each time she meets with our dog and all the dogs she cares for. As someone who goes out of her way to help and accommodate our requests, we can always depend on Susan. We love our pets and without hesitation would put Susan at the very top of the list as the best person to care for them.”


8. Willow G.
“Willow G. stayed in our home for a week with our two cats (minor medical and behavioral issues) while we were on vacation, and I would recommend them in a heartbeat for homestays! I received daily updates with adorable pictures and came home to a very tidy home and two very happy cats. Willow is a professional, loving, calm, and true cat whisperer - even ended up besties with our super skittish cat who is afraid of everyone! I will absolutely use Willow again - 5/5 stars!!!”


9. Kaela T.

“First I'd like to say how great Kae KaeT. Is about communication, we were going to a wedding on a fri-sat in busy Annapolis and contacted her last minute to see if she could watch our dog, and she immediately contacted us back through the app within seconds of placing the request. She did a great job taking care of our dog for two visits across two days.”


10. Jennifer K.

“Jennifer was fantastic! She always responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos at every visit. It gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. She took very good care of my cats and they were calm and happy when I returned home.”


11. Fallon B.


“Fallon is great with our dogs. Especially our sweet senior dog. Got plenty of pictures and she took care of their needs like they were her own.”


12. Jahborne D.

“Jahborne is great with cats. My cat is usually very shy but she let him pet her and even sat in Jahborne’s lap. He ensured that my cat got proper food and medicine as requested and ensured safety of my house keys”


13. Amanda M.

“Amanda provided excellent service taking care of our animals, and was especially attentive to our cat’s medicine regime. Communication was constant and clear, and she was more than reliable throughout the stay. Thank you Amanda!”


14. Erin K.

“Erin is always responsible and caring to my cat and dog.”


15. Kirsten C.
“Kirsten is amazing! She’s watched my dog Colby and my cat Calypso several times when I’ve been out of town. Colby adores her, and she always takes him on long walks to get his energy out. Calypso, who’s usually a bit shy, warmed up to her right away—which says a lot about Kirsten’s kind and calm energy. She’s reliable, caring, and keeps me updated with pictures and texts. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy pet sitter!”


16. Anna G.
“Anna is one of the kindest souls I know and she has a genuine love for all animals. I watch her entire demeanor light up when she is in the presence of animals and it is truly a beautiful sight to see. My own pets are my entire world and I have a hard time leaving them in someone else’s care. However, if I were ever in a situation where I needed a pet sitter, I would fully and completely trust her with the job. Anna’s love, empathy, and overall knowledge of caring for pets is unremarkable and I think any animal and owner would be lucky to have her as their sitter.”


17. Christopher C.

“Christopher was very welcoming to Coda. He is great at communicating and accommodating schedules and times:)”


18. Emily T.

“I really appreciated Emily taking on Benji at the last minute. She was incredibly responsive from the start and worked to ensure she and Benji could get a long for a long weekend before accepting the job. Emily checked in with me constantly and was very flexible when we decided Benji required more of her time than we'd initially planned for. When I arrived home, I could see that Benji had been given all the love and attention i would have provided him. I am very thankful to have found Emily and plan to use her on a regular basis.?”


19. Nicole Z.
“Nicole is wonderful- all the pictures with my pup looks like they’re having a great time!”
