1. Alexandra C.

“Alex has been extremely professional and is very responsive. After her recent stay over the house was left in good condition, she sent regular updates of our dogs (with pictures!) and overall has been a pleasure to work with. We will definitely be booking again in the future!”


2. Megan F.

“Megan is amazing!! She stayed with our 14yr old for several nights in our home and took exceptional care of everything! She was always super responsive and sent pictures every day :) We would happily have her come again!!”


3. Hannah J.


“Hannah was great. We left our 3 month old kittens and asked her to house sit. She was very communicative and kept us updated when we reached out. The kittens were happy and healthy when we got home. She also took great care of the house and brought in our mail. We would definitely recommend.”


4. Callie B.

“Callie did amazing with my dog. She provided consistent updates and was flexible when our plans changed. When I came home my dog didn't even seem to care that I was gone 😅 I assume because she was cared for so well.”


5. Maciyah D.

“Maciyah was SO wonderful with our baby Nala. We had just rescued Nala 3 weeks prior to having to leave for 5 days and were nervous to leave her, however, Maciyah was so great with her. She made us feel so much better about leaving her. She sent lots of pictures, gave our girl good cuddles and played with her and took such great care! Would absolutely recommend Maciyah to anyone needing help with their fur baby and Nala can’t wait to see her again.”

“Lauren did a great job staying with our dog who is older and has special needs, including medication. She left our house in excellent condition and was communicative throughout the stay. Highly recommend.”


7. Amanda E.


“Amanda is great. Unfortunately she got unexpectedly sick with the Flu. However, she is AMAZING on communication and care, so we were able to work everything out. She handled it very professionally.”


8. Laura K.

“Laura was very nice to get up at 3:30 am to feed my Henry. Hopefully was able to go back to bed. He has always been an early riser but this is ridiculous. She was calm and reassuring in general.”


9. Thalisa T.

“Thalisa was good at updating us as asked, sent daily photos, and cuddled hard with my pets. She left the place clean and my pets were happy when we returned. Would reach out to her again as needed!”


10. Kayla M.

“Kayla was an outstanding house sitter while I was out of town. She took great care of my animals and sent regular pictures and updates to keep me informed. She left my space clean and organized and I couldn’t even tell anyone else was there when I got home! Book with Kayla with confidence she will take great care of your pets and is incredibly respectful of your space.”


11. Karley M.

“Karley was very professional and provided excellent care for our dog Millie. She was prompt with communication and provided regular updates while we were away”


12. Erik M.

“Erik was fantastic, great communication and actively engaged in asking questions about pet care and understanding their needs ahead of time. During the stay he put my mind at ease with pictures, updates, and made it much easier to be away from my pets and home. He was even able to make some last minute changes work and the animals loved spending time with him. Good vibes all around, definitely recommend! I will be booking with Erik again!”

“Miranda was a fantastic sitter! She took great care of our deaf dog while we were on vacation. She took the time to get to know our dog and her special needs. We would definitely book Miranda again.”


14. Dylan J.
“I've known Dylan since we met as coworkers in 2022, and I am confident that he will be a reliable, caring, and responsible pet caregiver. Since I've known him, he has taken care of my cat numerous times while I was travelling out of state. He was always communicative and dependable when watching her, whether it was just for a night or for a longer vacation. I highly recommend him!”


15. Aurora J.

“Our go to pet sitter! I love love love Yadi has been caring for our two active dogs and shy cat for over a year now, and she’s been amazing every step of the way. She’s reliable, loving, and really takes the time to understand each of their personalities. Our pets absolutely adore her, and so do we!”


18. Akala W.

“Akala was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs! They were well taken care of and we got lots of updates on them during our 4 night vacation. She was very responsible and took great care of our house as well. It was super clean and just as we left it. We would definitely recommend Akala to take care of your pets and home while you are away.”


19. kejuan w.

“Loved working with Kejuan so much we have scheduled his next dog sitting. Responsive - which I appreciate so much. It gave me confidence he was committed.”


20. Keryandra T.
“I do a lot of last minute traveling for work and oftentimes finding my baby someone to hang out with at the last minute to be such a headache. I reached out to Keryandra fully expecting her to decline such a late request, but she accepted! My lab mix Pepper adores her. She is so communicative and understanding amd such a sweet person. Every time I’m headed out on assignment, we choose her to take care of Pep.”
