4. Peggy

“Amazing job. She was great with communication, great with the feeding schedule, she was able to help with training, and Andre didn't want to leave her. A+”


5. Karina L.

“When I left Hartley at Karina's she was definitely nervous, but I felt confident she would be okay. Over the next few days Harley had a really rough time, but Karina kept me appraised about everything that was going on, and worked with me to find solutions for her anxiety. I felt a thousand times better knowing even though she was super stressed, Karina spent every second keeping her as calm as possible and making the situation as good for her as possible. I would highly recommend leaving an animal in her loving care with no reservations. She was amazing for my dog and for me.”


6. Michael D.

“Michael was great with Phil. He was quick to respond and communicated well, which made me feel comfortable leaving Phil with him. I will definitely use his service again. Thank you Michael”


7. Erica G.

“Amazing sitter and such a great influence and environment for my doggy! He loved every minute! Definitely would stick with her as a sitter. Appreciate the daily updates and attentiveness to everything going on.10/10 ⭐️”


8. Pamela F.

“If you are looking for the best dog sitter Pam is your perfect choice. She is loving, flexible and trusting. Our pooch has been to several sitters, I think he would agree that Pam was exceptional! She was welcoming, treated him as her own and spoiled him even more than we do at home. The daily updates were really appreciated. Definitely will use her again, I didn't have to worry while I was traveling.”


9. Xavier T.

“Very helpful with my dogs transition in moving to New York. Very calm home my dog was able to relax. Great communication. Will definitely use Xavier again.”


10. john n.

“This is the second time we have had John and his family take care of our pup, a lab mix, and they clearly love dogs and take excellent care of ours.”


11. Anna M.

“Anna went above and beyond the call of duty for myself and my dog. The retractable leash I provided broke on one of her walks and without hesitation she went out to get another leash for future walks. My flight coming back was delayed and she stayed up late for me to arrive to pick up. She checked in everyday with updates and photos on how things were going. Anna was super tentative and detail oriented with my pets routine and needs. She made the experience for myself and my pet very comforting and assuring throughout the duration of the stay. If you're looking for a genuinely good hearted and trustworthy sitter then Anna is for you. I would recommend her to anybody.”


12. Tina Y.

“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”


13. Juliana O.

“Julianna is a great sitter. Rocco was always happy in all the pictures and communications she constantly sent. I would for sure book her again. Thank you again for taking care of my boy ! I appreciate it greatly”


14. Vanessa S.

“Our 5 month old puppy was in great hands with Vanessa and her family. They were reliable, trustworthy, sent us lots of updates including pics and videos. Most importantly he had a great time. 10/10 would recommend.”


15. Jonisha P.

“Heading out of town and I was in a jam - I needed a sitter that lived close by and seemed trustworthy. Worried as I normally have family/friends to watch Danny for me this felt like a BIG ask. Jonisha graciously accepted my request and was very accommodating, even helping my dog through his anxiety as he doesn’t have a great appetite when in different surroundings. Jonisha reached out to me to let me know he hadn’t eaten and tried chicken to entice an appetite which worked! I’m grateful to her and believe Danny had an amazing time as every update he was out in the yard gallivanting with his new pup friends. Communication was easy, and quick Jonisha was great.”


16. Nancy T.

“Nancy is a fantastic sitter. She and her family were wonderful with my 7 year old Shih Tzu and communicated with updates the whole time. Will book with her again!”


17. Michelle L.


“Michelle was fantastic with Bruno! She clearly cares deeply about the pets in her charge, and it shows. Bruno was happy and content when I picked him up, and I loved getting updates daily on the activities and on his adventures with Michelle. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care. We'll definitely be back!”




18. Narly G.

“This was my second time using Narly and I was very satisfied. She treated Luna as one of her own. When i'm away I never have to worry how my little pup is doing in the hands of Narly because she is amazing with Luna and always keeping me up to date with photos. I will continue using Narly.”




19. Diane M.


“Diane has been a lifesaver! Prompt updates and photos, amazing response time, wonderful service & Luna was very happy! Which is what everyone ultimately needs to know while they are separated from their pet. Diane has been amazing and we will definitely be using her again in the future if needed!”


20. Siyi C.

“Siyi is the best. She took care of my 90 pounds lab really well. And keep playing with my active baby. I would recommend her to any pet owners!”
