“We could not have asked for a better house sitter! This was our first time having someone stay at our place and care for our dog and two cats, and Mandy was amazing! All three pets really liked her, even one who is generally shy around most people. The house was left exactly as we left it, and her daily updates and photos made us feel so comfortable that I didn't worry one bit during our 9 day stay in New Zealand. I will definitely hire her again and I highly recommend her services!”
“Kelsey did a great job! She kept us update with photos and let us know when she was performing walks, feeding our pup or giving him his medicine. She made us feel comfortable while we were away and we would recommend her to anyone!”
“I would definitely suggest having Taylor stay with your doggie! Taylor was super attentive and sent lots of updates throughout the weekend . It felt really good to know that someone was staying with our dog Leo, specifically on Fourth of July during the fireworks when he gets really anxious . Taylor was able to give Leo his anxiety meds and comfort him during the fireworks . Taylor was respectful of our space and reliable person to be there to help with our dog’s needs. Also appreciate coming home to a clean place like how we left it before our trip. We would definitely love to have Taylor stay here again and watch Leo. Thank you for everything !”

“Kyle did a great job watching my dog Taz. He stayed at my place for a week while I was out of town. Taz seemed really happy and well cared for when I got home. Kyle sent me photos while I was away and the place was in great shape when I got back. I would definitely recommend Kyle.”
“Nana did an amazing job watching our pups for us while we were away. She sent plenty of updates and pics. The dogs said they had an amazing time! It was great to know they were in good hands. The house was left super clean and Nana was flexible with a change in our travel plans which we really appreciate. Definitely will have her watch our pups again!”
