Claire was amazing with our two (somewhat high-maintenance) French Bulldogs, one of which is still a puppy. She cared for them and our home and sent us several updates and pictures each day. We’ll definitely be having her dog sit again!

Jen house sat for a long weekend and she was great. I was nervous to leave our dog Barry but she came over for a meet and greet and he loved her immediately. She was very responsive and sent cute pics everyday. Barry seemed well cared for and Jen left our house in great shape. We will definitely call Jen again!

Melissa was awesome during her stay with my goldendoodle for the week. She sent pictures and videos, took him for walks, had a few play dates with other pups, and took great care of our home. I would recommend her to others, and I have already rebooked!

We rebooked Sam to watch our senior frenchie Tiffany while we went out of town for a week. Sam was amazing! They reached out with any questions and sent lots of updates and pictures. We just got home and Tiffany is chill as a cucumber, no stress at all. Sam was wonderful giving Tiffany her meds (there are so many) on schedule and without any issue. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip because Sam was here taking the best care of our Tiffany. Sam is also very friendly and chats with us in the app and in person so this whole situation is even more comfortable because we have a super cool person dog sitting, someone we would want to hang out with and who is competent, funny, and so caring. I cannot recommend Sam enough!

Jessica was great! We were out of town 4 nights, and then our flight got delayed and she was able to adjust her schedule to stay a 5th night to take care of our dog. She sent photos and updates at least twice a day and I felt better knowing I had someone here at our house to care for our dog (instead of boarding him). Our dog has some anxiety and allergy issues and she took care of all his meds and gave him lots of love and cuddles. She also washed all the bedding, towels and took the trash out (which she didn't need to do but did it anyhow). Highly recommend! Thanks again, Jessica.

Yasmin took excellent care of my dog during a week-long trip and I would definitely book with her again! Ranger gets anxious sometimes, especially when his routine is disrupted, but he seemed happy and content in all of the picture/video updates (and I appreciated her sending those regularly). Thank you for keeping my best friend happy and healthy while we were gone, Yasmin!

Angie was truly phenomenal—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was so kind, responsive, and incredibly accommodating, especially with our puppy. Her communication was excellent and gave us total peace of mind knowing our dogs were so well cared for. It was so clear how much love and attention she gave them. We would trust Angie again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s an absolute gem!

We loved having Megan stay with our three kitties. She sent texts, pics, and videos every day, and I could tell our boys were well cared for. We have a senior cat who needs meds daily, and she kept a daily record of his meds. I enjoyed meeting Megan, highly recommend her, and wouldn't hesitate to reach out to have her stay with our kitties next time we take a trip.

Samantha did an awesome job with my male Cane Corso. At 140lbs he requires a sitter who understands large breeds and the additional attention they need for their care. I was very impressed with her communication skills and handling of Kilo. I will be using her the next time I leave town. Great job Samantha!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a small child, as I grew up with them in my house. I am open to all cats, and small or big dogs! I am a student, with only one in person class which gives me great availability to care for animals. I help take care of my roommates cat already, and it works great with my schedule. I will keep all dogs leashed unless directed otherwise. For big dogs, I have experience walking them as well. The dogs will stay in my line of sight at all times!
