1. Anna S.


“Anna did a great job with my cat and dog! My dog is blind and she was extra caring towards her. Anna checked in with me often, and mentioned to me when she saw anything weird/concerning about my dog! Luckily it wasn’t anything (just a normal of my dog’s quirks) but i was really glad she reached out to be safe!”


2. Michelle M.

“Michelle did a great job with our geriatric cats. Medications were properly administered and the cats quickly warmed up to her. She also kept us informed with texts and pictures and dealt with some unscheduled package deliveries.”


3. Anna B.

“Anna was extremely communicative and provided consistent updates while she watched my two pups during an out of town trip. I could tell through every photo and video she shared that the dogs were very well taken care of and comfortable. I would definitely book Anna again for future requests!”


4. Wesley F.

“Wesley was amazing. Kept in contact with us. Took amazing care of our pups. Let us know if any issues. She even got my little old pup to cuddle and that is rare. He really doesn’t like many people! She was amazing and we plan to use her again and again!!”

7. Amanda G.

“Can not recommend Amanda enough! She went above and beyond to meet all of my dogs needs and sent an update on every visit. My dog, Bowie, is high energy and requires an extensive walk and other care to get his energy out, and Amanda was able to keep him happy. Will re-use her any time she is available and 5 stars all around for Amanda :)”


8. Helena B.

“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”

18. Monique P.

“Monique was a fabulous sitter for our often anxious hound. She is an excellent communicator and may even have ESP. It seemed like everyone someone in the family mentioned our pup, ping, a message and photos of our girl came through. Monique was very accommodating to our quirks and last minute changes in plans. We will definitely rebook with Monique for our next trip.”
