1. Sarah L.
“Sarah and her husband were phenomenal! Sarah is a good communicator and very reliable. She sent daily photos while we were away. Our two beloved dogs were well cared for and loves. She was responsible and tidy while staying in our home. I would recommend her without reservation and hope to use her services again in the future.”
2. Sandra A.
“Sandy was great . She stayed at my house with my two babies . My dogs were a little nervous at first having a stranger in their house but they opened up quickly and loved having her . I would use Sandy again. She was generous with updates and sending pictures daily as well :)”
3. Christina M.
About: I have feeding, walking, playing and poop cleaning experience. I have been around small and large, young and old dogs most of my life. I know all are different in their needs but they all need love and I can provide that. I have no other job so I have all the time needed for your pet. I'm available days, nights, weekends and emergency care available. I haven't had a pet not like me yet. I can follow any routine already set in place. I can give extra time and love to any animal. I will not take the care of your member of the family lightly.
4. Marielle F.
“My boy Kingston loves Marielle! She takes him out for long walks/adventures and sends updates/pictures. She is wonderful and I have complete peace of mind when he is in her care. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter for your fur baby!”
5. Annette K.
“I can’t say enough about how INCREDIBLE Annette was. She stayed at our home with our shy little schnauzer Spidey while we went away for a few days. She sent so many wonderful photos, videos, and reassuring messages that gave as the peace of mind we needed to enjoy ourselves. She is so kind, sweet, and caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to love our little guy. I can’t imagine using anyone else! Thank you thank you thank you, Annette!!!”
6. Ariel W.
“Ariel stayed two nights at my home with my dogs and I am so grateful to have found her. I’m an incredibly anxious dog mom and she is so compassionate and understanding of that and took such great care of my dogs and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. My dogs absolutely love her! I highly recommend her. She’s reliable and communicative and I’m looking forward to having her stay with them again soon!”
7. Sue C.
“Sue was wonderful. Our dogs took minimal time being comfortable with her, where they normally take 15-30 min to warm up to people. When we returned home the dogs were happy and Sue left the house spotless. Thank you so much for a great experience, Sue!”
8. kelly s.
“Kelly is who you want to sit your pets and your house. She's so nice, so patient with all my communication, so responsive and responsible... It's obvious she loves animals, she immediately connected with my cat and my puppy, and they with her. And let me tell you, my puppy is not an easy dog to take care of right now. She's 16 weeks old and in full crazy teething, biting, nipping mode. It's definitely a challenge to be with this land shark. But Kelly handled her with grace. She also left our house spotless. I will definitely ask her to watch my babies again!”
9. Michelle H.
“Michelle thank you! I appreciated the photos you shared during your 5 day stay at my home. It felt great knowing my kitty had company. And my home looked just as it had when I left! You even stripped the bed. Above and beyond what I expected. I will recommend your services to any who inquire:)”
10. Taneesha R.
“Taneesha was amazing with our boy Indie! She responded immediately when we needed a last-minute dog sitter for the day and made sure Indie was happy, exercised and well taken care of! We will definitely be using her again when we come back up north for another ski trip!!”
11. Sam P.
“Sam took care of our young goldendoodle, Winnie, for 6 days, while our family was on vacation, she sent me lots of sweet update photos and I was so comforted to see my pup having the time of her life with her new bffs, Sam and goose! Sam took great care of Winnie and our house. I will most definitely rehire Sam; she is a genuinely nice person and an excellent pet sitter!”
12. Kathleen S.
“I don’t have the easiest of dogs - stranger danger! Kathleen was fantastic! She kept in touch on when I was leaving, how the dogs did, when she was leaving. Put my mind at ease while I was traveling.”
13. Nina M.
“Nina was patient when getting to know my dog. My dog is anxious with new people. With a little reassurance from her mama and Nina’s ability to read her cues, they developed a loving relationship ❤️”
14. Bailey M.
“This was our first multi-day out of town trip in quite a while, so we were a little worried about Thunder, our needy cat. We needn’t have worried - Bailey took great care of him! We also appreciated that she sent us a photo each day. And the house was neat and tidy when we arrived home. All in all, a very good experience!”
15. Maria C.
“Maria was fantastic with Juniper and Grace. Really. She shared regular photos (good ones too!) and videos so she put us at ease so we could enjoy our time away. She is a real professional and easy going too. It was always a pro”
16. Bella G.
“Bella is a friendly and enthusiastic dog sitter that we plan to use again! She was on time and we returned home to happy pups that had been fed and walked!”
17. Isabelle E.
About: I've taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. I'll treat your babies like they're my own whenever I watch them! I love animals. If you need to work out prices I'm willing to work with you! I currently work from home so I'm available to take care of your pets needs whenever! Whatever schedule you have them on, I can accommodate to! I live in an apartment that’s super safe! I have two cats currently! So if your animal doesn’t get along with cats please let me know!!!
18. Emily C.
“Emily was amazing! We contacted her short notice to hang with our anxious pup while we enjoyed a night out on vacation. She was excellent with communication and our dog was immediately comfortable with her. We would absolutely re-book if paths cross again!”
19. Beth M.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a child. I have had my own dog for 4 years and know how hard it can be to find reliable pet sitters in the area. Whether you are heading out on vacation or need someone to give your pet extra exercise, I'm happy to help! I have a nervous and reactive dog, so I am comfortable with gentle positive reinforcement and avoiding triggers. I can adapt care to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very available mornings and evenings, and have some flexibility at lunch for short visits. My weekends are wide open and I'd love to take care of your pet! I will treat your home with the same respect and cleanliness that I hope house sitters would treat mine. I can follow whatever rules you normally have with your pet and will do everything to maintain their schedule and sense of normalcy.
20. Joshua T.
“Josh was wonderful! Kept our active border collies busy and well exercised and kept us updated with photos and messages. Will definitely call Josh again in the future!”
