1. Megan & Matthew H.

“Last week was our first visit from Megan and Matthew and we were so impressed with their attention to detail and the sweet pictures they shared on our pup’s Rover card. They have been very professional in all interactions and respond quickly. We feel very fortunate to have found them and know our puppy is in good hands while we are away. 🐾”


2. Molly M.

“Molly was amazing with my babies! My oldest, Jackie, is very nervous around new people, but Molly handled it with care and expertise. We will definitely be booking with her again!”




3. Melanie L.

“Melanie has provided pet sitting services on a few occasions for me recently, including a long-term pet sitting commitment of two weeks. Melanie made my trips more enjoyable, knowing that my two cats were well taken care of, and given full attention. She gave me updates regularly and her communication was great. She did have to provide oral medication to one of my cats at each visit and there were no challenges. She even got my cat taking pill pockets while I was away for the oral medications and now I can decrease the use of my pill popper which my cat enjoys. My cats, per reports, only became more lively the longer I was away, which I know means they enjoyed her energy and that she gave them attention they needed. Melanie is a kind and attentive person overall and my cats prefer she returns as well :)”


4. Kathryn B.

“We needed some daily drop-ins for our pup during a complicated travel time. Kathy was reliable, trustworthy, communicative and gave Marley all of the love during her visits. She even navigated our technical problems with the garage door and helped out when our furnace was acting up while we were away. We will absolutely ask her to care for our 90lb furbaby again! Highly recommend!!”


5. Ioana C.

“I couldn’t be happier with the cat sitting service I received! From the moment I reached out, Ioana was responsive, friendly, and incredibly professional. She took the time to get to know my cat and his routine, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates and pictures, and it was clear that my cat was comfortable and well cared for. Ioana went above and beyond, even making sure my cat’s litter was kept clean. I highly recommend Ioana to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy!”


6. Lacey S.

“Lacey took excellent care of the cats while we were away for vacation. We didn’t have to worry a bit, Lacey was communicative and went above and beyond. We highly recommend Lacey and are happy to have someone we trust for future pet sitting needs.”

8. Ashley V.

“Ashley was wonderful- she left very detailed reports of how my fur baby was doing each time with photos and gave her lots of attention. I will definitely hire her again!”


9. Bailey P.
“Bailey has cared for my cat, Luna, in the past and she has done a wonderful job! She always shows up on time and takes the best care of the animals, making sure they have everything they need.

“Sarah was fantastic! She communicated really well and was so reliable while we were gone. Our 2 cats had been put on meds right before we left for our family vacation, and Sarah was able to manage and administer them for us. She played with our girls and gave them the love and cuddles they needed. Would definitely recommend!”


15. Marella M.

“Marella is so easy to work with, and truly cares for my pets. She was careful to complete all of my visit requests, and took her time to give each of them some quality time and lots of attention and love.”

“Kelly is fantastic with animals, in large part because animals (dogs especially) are her passion. There is no one who will be more kind, loving, and patient with your pets than Kelly!”


17. Jen D.

“Jen was great before during and after our vacation. She kept in touch and let us see great image of Hobie and friends. She went above and beyond in our minds and we are relieved to find such a responsible and caring person to keep an eye on Hobie in the future! Thank you Jen!!!”


18. Nicole W.

“Nicole is the best pet sitter we have ever had! After having so many failed attempts to find the person who will provide the best care for our girls, we feel that we have finally found that person in Nicole. She is truly interested in our babies and goes out of her way to learn about their individual needs, how to meet those needs, and what our preferences are yo keep them healthy, happy, and safe.”


19. George Y.
About: My family was lucky enough to have dogs while growing up, as such we learned to care for them while growing up. After we grew into adults, each family continue to have dogs for their own for their family. Hope to extend that caring to pets I'll meet. Presently, I'll be aiming for late noon to early evening bookings on weekdays & more availability on weekends & most holidays except for Thanksgiving & Christmas. In my view, pets are part of the family member. Number one concern of course is their safeness. Their happiness & well being secondly. Full attention will be given for both.
