“Jamie took wonderful care of my aging Molly. I’m not so sure she missed me that much 😊 She sent me text and videos every day. I would certainly call her again when I need a sitter.”
3. Emma M.
“Emma followed through from our initial meet and greet to her daytime and overnight visits, leaving us confident that our 11 y.o. dog was well cared for. We will definitely be working with Emma again, in fact we already have booked her for another weekend.”
4. Ruth S.
“Ruth was amazing with our dog and cat. She was prompt and very communicative throughout the visit. Our dog required eye drops and medicine and she was able to administer them with no issues. She also cleaned up after the pets and ensured our sheets were clean and ready for us when we came back home on a late flight. Lastly, she even coaxed our very shy cat out from hiding! We appreciate her professionalism and taking such great care of our pets!”
5. Laura Z.
“We love having Laura watch our girls! She was so amazing! The girls loved her and had so much fun! Plus she even ran the vacuum for us and helped out with a few other things. I know next time we go away we’ll hire her for sure!”
6. Sky S.
“Sky was nothing short of spectacular! Our 12 year old dog immediately adored her and our two seven year old cats fell in love with her instantly. We are so thankful for her attentiveness, admiration for animals and awesome attitude. We’ve already scheduled another sleepover for her and our little zoo. Sky is the best!”
7. Kathy B.
“Kathy stayed with our cat, Frankie, for 4 days. She did a wonderful job and followed all of our instructions for Frankie’s care. We came home to a clean house and happy cat! Will definitely utilize Kathy when we have to travel again.”
8. Katie B.
“Katie is the best! She sent videos and pictures as updates which was so helpful considering it was the first time I had ever left my dog. She provided reassurance that my dog was safe. I would highly recommend!”
9. Isabelle G.
“Isabelle has been a great petsitter for our precious mini poodle, Mimi. I wouldn't trust just anyone when it comes to taking care of our pet but I fully trust Isabelle. She is responsible, timely, communicative and most of all, she loves our Mimi as much as we do. I'd highly recommend Isabelle to take care of your pets!”
10. Danielle T.
“Danielle was amazing! She kept me informed on how my dogs are doing and she made sure to give my elder dog her medication in the mornings and at night and sometimes during the day if she needed it. Danielle was very responsive and she kept my house, clean and tidy, definitely use her again”
11. Siobhan D.
“I hired Siobhan to watch my dog while I was going to meetings. She is very professional my dog enjoys seeing her when she comes over and takes her for good walks and feeds her for me when I’m not around.”
12. Masha I.
“Masha totally came and save the day when my brother and I needed a last minute puppy sitter for my two elderly pups for 3 days. My puppies are a little needy and get very upset one they don’t see their humans around, and Masha swooped in to make sure they were comfortable and totally eased our worries. 100% calling her next time we have to leave the pups home.”
13. Sam S.
“Having Sam as an in-home sitter for our 15-year-old special needs Cocker Spaniel and two active playful Cocker Spaniels was a blessing. Dolly, Carl and Millie are all rescue dogs with issues. Dolly is deaf, has blinding cataracts and chronic pain. Carl has itchy skin and Millie just wants to play all the time! To find a sitter with ability to give proper care, which included giving Dolly and Carl medications, was a must. With Sam's ability to understand their needs and carefully follow detailed instructions was tremendous! Sam welcomed the challenge with no hesitation. We are planning to have her to take care of our threesome again soon. Thanks Sam!”
14. Sumintra W.
“Words cannot explain how grateful I am for finding Sumintra. I had never used this app before but she made it exceed my expectations. She was very caring with my babies, she was always communicating everything to me and sending pictures and videos. It made me feel so peaceful and calm. I recommend Sumintra 100%. Eternally grateful.”
15. Meghan S.
“Meghan is very friendly, responsible and great with my dog!”
16. Patrick S.
“Patrick was the ultimate professional. Great communicator, self-sufficient, responsive, and accommodating. I came home to a tidy home and a happy dog. I would highly recommend Patrick for any sit and welcome him back to my home anytime.”
17. Agnessa N.
“Agnessa has taken care of my dog and two bunnies on several occasions and always does an exceptional job. My pets have a special diet that requires a lot of steps and attention to detail, and Agnessa is always very thorough and follows through on everything I ask. She is very dependable, always goes above and beyond and is my go to pet-sitter. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
18. Katherine A.
“Katie is a great pet sitter! She pays attention to detail, communicates often, and really cares for my pets like they’re her own. I love knowing my pets are in good hands when she’s watching them :)”
19. Nadya H.
“Nadya is a dream! She watched our 1 year old golden retriever for the weekend and provided regular photos, updates and videos that made us feel like he was so well taken care of! She also left our home looking better than it did before we left. She’s incredibly kind, loving, attentive and respectful and we will absolutely be booking her again!”
20. Daniella S.
About: I grew up with 50-gallon fish tanks, 3 big dogs and one small one, and I rescued a cat recently. I love animals so much!!! If I had a house just for rescues I would. I am waiting to hear to volunteer at Humane society. I currently have a part time job at HomeGoods. And I am in college online but I can always make more into my schedule. I am always looking to fill my extra time. I am always ahead of my schoolwork and on time for my job. I grew up with different animals and the proper care they each need so I have a full understanding of how all of them work. And also, once my oldest dog got elderly, he went blind and had to go on medication and I always took care of him when I was 13 and had no problem.
