We had a wonderful experience with Brianna! She kept us consistently updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. What really stood out was her attentiveness and compassion, especially when Mochi was a little sick. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and kept us informed. We're super grateful and we would absolutely trust her with Mochi again. Highly recommend!

Belle was very kind and I felt comfortable leaving Capone & Leo with her. When we came home, the boys were very happy and I could tell they liked having Belle with them as they were calm & comtent. Very quick to respond!

We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Our dog was hospitalized for pneumonia the week before our trip, which made us quite nervous about leaving on a long vacation. Fortunately, Hailey made us feel completely comfortable before we left - she was confident she could care for our sick pup and it showed. Hailey seamlessly handled our dog's complicated medication schedule and provided tons of extra cuddles to help with her recovery. We were able to enjoy our trip stress-free because we knew our dog was in such capable, loving hands. Throughout our time away, Hailey kept us well-updated on our pup's recovery and sent lots of pictures of our pets cuddled up with her. These photos were everything - they showed us that our fur babies were not just being cared for, but were genuinely happy and comfortable. We had booked Hailey before for a shorter trip and were thrilled we chose her again for this longer stay. She's reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely loves our pets like her own. The peace of mind she provides is invaluable, especially when dealing with a pet's medical needs. We will definitely reach out to Hailey in the future!

Quinn was absolutely amazing with our pups! We had a last minute trip that required someone to stay with our dogs at our house for 7 days and Quinn went over and beyond. She took our dogs to the apartment dog park daily and played with them for hours. Would recommend Quinn to anyone needing a loyal pet sitter who will treat your animals like her own. When we returned she washed all the bed sheets and tidy up the house so we returned to a clean home.

We had a fantastic experience with Devin! He was incredibly communicative, sending us daily updates and adorable pictures of our dog, Lucy, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the photos and messages that Lucy was not only well cared for but also receiving lots of love and attention. Devin made sure she felt safe, comfortable, and happy throughout the week. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver and would absolutely book with him again!

Kiana truly went above and beyond in caring for my pup. She was incredibly patient and made the whole experience stress free, and she was wonderfully accommodating with scheduling, working around my timings without any hassle. My pup was happy and well cared for the entire time, she sent pictures throughout the day. I would highly recommend Kiana to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.
