Lisa did a great job. She looked after my cat and two dogs. She stayed at my home while we were gone. First vacation we have been on in a few years. I don't think my dogs missed us. Trustworthy and did as she promised. Would use her again

Another great experience with Jessica. She’s great with my senior dog! Caring for my home and my few plants while away for almost a week. Came back to everything in tip top shape and a happy doggo. Consistent and reliable!

Jessica worked for me when I had a boarding business in Iowa. She was fantastic with the dogs, keep a clean space, and was always on time. She moved and I lost a great asset. I hope you find the greatness I did with your pet(s)!

Lisa has watched my 7yr old dog Leo many times. She takes him on walks and provides him with a safe indoor environment with toys and enrichment activities. Leo loves spending time with Lisa, and I feel confident and stress-free when I leave him in her care.

Sue is a responsible and caring adult. She has been my primary cat sitter when I have gone on vacation for extended periods of time up to as much as 3 weeks. She likes animals and is very knowledgeable about tending to pets. She has had cats, birds, and other small mammals in her household. I have trusted her in my house while gone and would recommend her to help others with their pet needs.

Samantha is incredible! I had to take a work trip after bringing home a puppy that wasn’t fully vaccinated against Parvo. I was so worried about what to do with with our dogs (3mo,5yr,11yr) and Samantha saved the day. She was incredible all weekend with our pups and I was so relieved to know all three dogs & our cat were in excellent hands. I will definitely be looking into daycare with Samantha for our puppy and feel really grateful that we know someone we can trust with our crew if we need them taken care of in the future.

Natasha was AMAZING 🤩. We are beyond thrilled that we found Natasha to stay with our motley crew of furkids while we were gone. She was incredibly attentive, responded fast, and sent photos and updates every day were were gone. Our pup and kitties LOVED her (even our shy cat!) and we felt so at ease knowing Natasha was at our home loving and taking the best care of everything and everyone while we were away. Thank you Natasha!

Benjamin was great. He was very courteous, kept me updated regularly, and set plenty of pictures. I could tell he took very good care of our girl, and the house was just like we left it when we returned. I would happily book with him again.

Madi was fantastic! Wrigley is a high energy dog and he got daily trips to the dog park and even a trip to the pet store. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when we got home and Wrigley seemed very happy! This was our first time with a sitter and we were pretty nervous since our dog has separation anxiety, however with Madi here I don’t think he even realized we were gone. We’re already adding Madi to the calendar for next time, and would recommend them again and again!!!
