We asked Paige to watch our pets, Zoe the cat, Goose the Golden Retriever (3yrs old) and Willow the Goldendoodle (2 yr old). Paige survived and the animals were cared for. Willow does like socks so consequently Paige lost a sock. Paige had to walk each dog separately as Goose is really strong and is very playful during walks making it more challenging while walking the other dog. Zoe the 12 yr old cat, is typically not fond of strangers and will almost never be seen. Well day one Zoe was out and greeted Paige. I told Paige she must be a cat whisperer. Anyways, Paige was keeping us updated and had everything under control as well making sure the animals were fed and lived which is all we really care about. Recommend and we will be happy to have Paige watch our pets in the future.

Yesenia is fantastic! She cared for our kitties like they're her own. One, in particular, was going through some health challenges, and Yesenia took extra care to tend to her medication and special diet. She also played with them and kept us updated throughout, including lots of pictures.

Kristin was amazing! She took such great care of my 3 pups. She kept me posted constantly and sent me lots of pictures of my girls. She was available last minute over the Memorial Day weekend and is a lifesaver! Will definitely request her again next time I’m going away on vacation!

About: I believe that it is important to adapt to each dog's individual personality and preferences when caring for them. I have had experience all my life with my own, and family, pets of all shapes and sizes and can tell you for sure, one size does not fit all lol. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats so I'm confident in my ability to handle anything they throw at me. I'd love to get to know your pet as well :) I work from home so I am highly flexible and can fit your pet in my day at any time for your requested activities, or lack thereof haha I have pets at home, so if your pet prefers not making friends at this time, I can drop by or stay with your pet at their home!

About: my lifelong experience sets me apart from other sitters because my family would always positively recommend me to their friends. I am experienced with foster animals and pet sitting through years of helping a shelter worker and caring for her dogs. I’m attentive, reliable, and love working with all kinds of pets. I am currently working parttime as a preschool teacher but i am available on weekdays after 12. Mornings during the weekday are my only busy period. the care for pets varies depending on owners request. In the past, I have always followed clients requested bathroom and feeding schedules. if you have any questions, feel free to message or call me.

Our dog Bo loves Sarah and we’re so happy he feels comfortable around her. He’s pretty high energy so she will take him outside and play fetch which is his favorite! She’s also really patient with him because he can be a little temperamental and we appreciate that!

Meagan is truly the best dog sitter I could ask for. She’s my go-to sitter, and I trust her completely with both my dog and my home. Whenever I’m out of town and she’s staying at my place, I have total peace of mind knowing everything is handled. She’s incredibly responsible, communicative, and so loving with my dog—it’s obvious how much she genuinely cares. Being able to travel without any stress or worry is such a gift, and that’s entirely because of Meagan. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and amazing with pets, I genuinely cannot recommend her enough.

Kaitlyn came over so we could meet and determine if it was a good fit. After accepting the job, she came over and stayed at the house while watching our dog, Dylan. Kaitlyn sent us pictures and updates while we were away, and most importantly, we came home to a happy, excited pup. We had a terrific peace of mind knowing Dylan was in good, capable care while we were away.

Crystal was amazing! We were super nervous about leaving our puppy with a sitter, and she did such a wonderful job that we wondered what we had been worried about. She sent us regular updates, helped practice basic training, and basically made our dog feel like a superstar all weekend. And she also left our apartment spotless! We can't recommend her highly enough.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Marshall. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, took great care of him, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent lots of great photos and updates, which made it easy to see that Marshall was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. Sarah was also extremely respectful of my home and left everything spotless and exactly as she found it. It’s such a relief to find someone who is not only excellent with pets but also so considerate and trustworthy in your space. I would happily book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.

William was so great with the dogs! We asked him to house sit and to be with the dogs for a few days. He came by a couple of days before we left to get familiar with them, so they'd be comfortable. He sent updates in the morning and night and said that he played with the dogs a lot. I could see that the pups really enjoyed/benefitted from having him around. He's a pretty cool dude and we'll definitely be asking him to dog sit in the future! 10/10 would recommend.

So happy we found Kaitie! She completely exceeded our expectations. She sent the most amazing photos throughout the stay and kept communication open the whole time — it made being away so much easier knowing my guy was in good hands. When I came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had the time of his life. The house was clean and tidy. We'll absolutely be booking her again!

I would give Jake 5 stars just for having to deal with me!!! I was so nervous about leaving my new puppy and my spoiled 3.5-year-old pug, but Jake reassured me every step of the way. He sent photos, followed all of my instructions (all four pages of them!) perfectly, and took such great care of my dogs. Our older pug even goes to the spare room now looking for him! I can't thank Jake enough and highly recommend him to everyone. Thanks, Jake!!! 🐾💕

Ivana was AMAZING!!! the sweetest soul and so willing to help us out us out in a last minute minute ! My sweet girl had a lot of fun with her and was so excited to meet her from the get go. Guava had been feeing sick for a couple of days and seemed like her normal self once Ivana came around, I think she was the little boost of she needed to get better. But felt so relaxed and comforted leaving her in her hands while she wasn’t feeling the best. 10/10 recommend 💕🙈
