I can't say enough good things about Kat! The dogs were happy to see us, but I can tell they were taken good care of while we were gone. Our house was picked up and clean. We will definitely use Katianna again!

I’ve been using Katie’s services for years now and she just always goes above & beyond. Spent a week on vacation and she sent multiple photos per day, took my pup on new adventures every single day, left my house sparkling clean, and just took such special care of my boys. I can never thank her enough ❤️❤️‼️

Jennifer did a fantastic job watching our older pup! She went above and beyond what we had asked with extra walks/snuggles to make sure our sweet girl was taken care of while we were out of town. Will definitely use her services again! Can’t recommend her enough!

She was really nice and took notes on everything we went over. Took amazing care of our disabled dog and kept the duo active while we were away. The pups loved playing with her!

Willow enjoyed the walks and company! Meaghan rolled with our dog’s energy. She took a broken fire alarm in stride and kept Willow calm and safe.

Dan sent pictures of our pups and was very communicative. He had great questions previous to house/dog sitting that made us feel comfortable with his expertise. The dogs seemed to connect with him and were happy during his stay. Will definitely rebook him in the future!

We greatly appreciated her flexibility to add one additional night at the last minute when our plans changed. Jessica was responsible and respectful in all her communications and we returned to a tidy house. Luna was in good hands and got to enjoy a family hike with her as well. Thank you Jessica!

We hired Teagan to house sit our boy Banks so we could visit Costa Rica. Things went great while we were gone. We received daily pics and he looked happy. We came home to a clean house. We would recommend Teagan for your babysitting needs.

She sent lots of pictures while we were gone to let us know our pets were happy and comfortable! We would recommend Yvette to other pet parents and will be using her again ourselves! Thanks again for keeping our girls!

Cambria did a super job with our pets. The day before we left one dog ended up in Urget Care after ingesting bones and having tarry black poop. We had a specific care plan for him and frankly Cambria is the ONLY sitter I would have felt safe leaving him with! “No problem” she said, “I’ve got this!” After we talked about it. He recovered and she sent me very specific updates about his condition. She always sends lots of pictures and takes our younger dog on some very long walks to keep her happy. Plus she leaves the house in better shape than anyone ever does. Everything nest, tidy, folded, and the little welcome home bouquet was so special. She is the best pet/house sitter ever. Thank you Cambria for the peace of mind you gave us.

Daniel was great with our two large dogs! He helped us out in a pinch and was super responsive. He followed our instructions to the T, was thorough, sent us updates and pics of our dogs, and left our house clean when we arrived home. He is very thoughtful with the dogs and despite our old fellow being incredibly difficult to med, Daniel was diligent in trying and found out a new med trick for us!! We will use him again. Thank you Daniel!

Maria was a wonderful companion to Fiddlesticks! She was communicative during our trip, sending great photos and updates. This was our first trip away from Fiddle and we felt totally comfortable and safe leaving him in Maria’s care. She is knowledgeable about dogs, understands their needs, and continued our training during crucial puppy-development-time. We appreciate her so much and would book again!
