1. Sherylee C.

“Sherry Lee did an amazing job. She stayed in our home over the holiday weekend and cared for Archie our two year old Cockapoo. She updated us constantly, sent photos and videos, and it was obvious how relaxed he was in his own routine even though we were away. We felt so comfortable and are already looking at additional dates for Sherrylynne to come stay and watch Archie. We highly recommend hiring Sherry Lynne to stay in your home and pet sit your furry friends.”


2. Alyssa C.

“Alyssa watched Odovacer overnight on our wedding day. With all the demands of the day, it was such a relief to not have to worry about his care arrangements. Alyssa is reliable and flexible and Odovacer is always excited when she comes by. She really is the best!”


3. Emily H.

“Emily came to our hotel to watch our pups while we spent a full day sightseeing. It was a load off our mind knowing they had company and were able to go for walk. She did a wonderful job and sent pictures throughout the day. I would highly recommend Emily!”


4. Jonathan C.

“Jonathan was great with my fur baby! He was detail oriented and made sure Magnus’ needs were met! Definitely booking him again ! :)”


5. Steve L.
“Steve has been watching my dog Molly for a number of years. I know he does an outstanding job because she literally cries with excitement every time she sees him. Steve not only genuinely cares about dogs, but he had a deep understanding of dogs' needs. I couldn't recommend him more. ”


6. Jestine S.

“Jestine was on time, friendly, personable, paid attention, asked great questions, and was generally a joy to work with. Our 70lb. Rottsky has Separation Anxiety and can be a handful, but Jestine was awesome with him. We hired her to house sit the dog, but she also calmed our anxieties about leaving him alone! It's always a bit odd to have a relative stranger in your home, but after just a few minutes chatting, our fears melted away. We look forward to welcoming her back again!”


7. Nicole D.

“Nicole was the absolute best choice to watch our dog when we had to go out of town overnight. I was nervous to leave him but Nicole was super communicative, treated him like her own pup, and took excellent care of him. We feel SO much better knowing we have Nicole as an option for dog sitting when we go out of town.”


8. Val T.

“Val did an awesome job watching our two large dogs at our house for an extended period! It was clear that she really cared and spent lots of timing playing with them and making them feel loved. She kept us updated with details of how the dogs were doing and shared lots of pictures so that we never worried. Val also went above and beyond in keeping the house in tidy shape and making sure that everything was in order when we returned from our trip. She will absolutely be our first call for all of our future pup sitting needs!”


9. Natasha K.

“Natasha was great with our Husky! She always replied in a timely manner and our pup seemed to really like her. The amount of pictures and updates that she shared with us was perfect. Definitely recommend!”




10. Marlita M.

“Marli did an amazing job watching my two cats while I was out of the country for a week. It is clear that she is a cat lover and enjoyed spending time with them. I wanted someone who would play with my cats and give them affection while I’m gone, not just feed them, and Marli did just that! I could tell from the daily photos she sent me that both my girls were very happy. I came back home to two cats who barely missed me because they had so much fun with Marli.”


11. Jon E.


“Jon was great. I had to schedule last minute and he took great care of my dog. Sent photos making me feel comfortable while I was away. I’ll definitely work with him again.”


12. Nathalia C.

“I was so nervous finding a new sitter for Bella since she can be a bit quirky. Nathalia was so sweet, kept me up to date on what they were doing, and sent great pictures. She went above and beyond for us! Thank you so much, we can’t wait for the next sit :)”


13. Jonny M.

“Whenever we need to travel and family isn’t around we get super anxious as we can’t trust just anyone with our amazing dog, Peach, who is dog aggressive. Finding Jonnie took that anxiety away. Upon meeting him, he took great interest in Peach and her routines. He walked her and took plenty of notes. He also met up with us again before leaving. By the time we left, my anxiety was gone. Jodie took perfect care of Peach, and our house. He also sent a TON of pictures, morning, midday and evening, which really comforted my wife and I. It was nice to see Peach hanging out in our home and at content in our absence. I highly recommend Jonnie.”


14. Katie & Zayn S.

“We could not recommend Katie and Zayn more highly. They are so reliable, respectful of our home and loving towards our dog Bear. We always get so many pictures and it’s so clear that Bear is having fun and is stress free. Thank you Katie and Zayn!”


15. Bri A.
“I couldn't be more pleased with Briana's dog sitting services! From the moment I reached out to her, she was responsive, friendly, and professional. She made sure to ask all the right questions about my dog's routine, preferences, and any special care needed. When I dropped off my dog, I could tell that Briana genuinely loves animals, and that immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout the time my dog was with her, Briana sent regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. It was so comforting to know that my pup was not only well cared for but also having fun with walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. When I picked up my dog, they were happy, healthy, and content—exactly how I hoped they'd be! I can honestly say Briana has earned my trust, and I'll definitely be reaching out to her again for future dog sitting needs. Highly recommend!”




16. Cheyenne R.
“We found Cheyenne to be very dedicated and loving dog sitter. The dogs were always extremely happy to see her. She always had boundless energy when it came to playing with them.”


17. Sarah M.

“Sarah was great! Communicative, punctual and took very good care of our energetic puppy.”


18. Melanie P.
“Melanie took care of my cat Yoshi, I was able to enjoy a few days away with no worries. Her reliability speaks for itself! Thankful for her help and dedication to a happy stay for my cat. 🐈⬛”


19. Jovany J.
“Jovany took great care of our dogs while we were traveling. He followed our instructions, was very flexible & accommodated our needs. Would definitely use his services again. We trusted him with our pups and they loved being in his care”


20. Jojo A.

“Jojo was the absolute best. She was soo good taking care of my Great Dane. I was away for 5 days and she sent picture and updates all of the time. She went above and beyond.”
