1. Christina P.

“Christina took such good care of our dog for more than two weeks and agreed to stay an extra day when our flight home was delayed. She sent us pictures and updates every day. I certainly hope she is available next time we need a dog sitter.”


2. Adolfo A.


“Adolfo was outstanding! He was super caring, communicative, and enthusiastic. He clearly takes pet care seriously, and I would without hesitation recommend Adolfo for the next time you need someone to look after your furry loved ones.”


3. Caroline G.

“Caroline is amazing, and we are so happy to have found her! She was quick to respond, communicative, and very patient with my sweet corgi girl (who had some accidents early on in the stay). She sent pictures and videos everyday and let me know what was going on without requiring too much of my attention while I was away. She was also a lifesaver and stayed an extra night at the last minute when my flight was cancelled due to weather. Highly recommend!”


4. Lily F.

“Lily has taken great care of my dog and is very communicative. She even stayed with my pup when my heat and hot water unexpectedly went out while she was there. Super thankful for her love and care for my bebe!”


5. Isabelle C.

“Isabelle was great with my pup! She was punctual and flexible, she kept me updated with pictures and messages. I would definitely leave her with my Murray with her again.”


6. Martine V.

“Martine was cordial, communicative, and competent. She respected our space and kept our apartment so tidy while taking care of our dog. Martine sent us updates and pictures and our dog absolutely loved her. We will be booking with Martine again!”


7. Dasja A.



“Dasja is sweet and communicative. She sent me a lot of pictures of my pup. She took care of him while I ran the NYC Marathon, which I highly appreciated. Will book her again!”


8. Deisi C.


“This was my first time leaving my pup for a prolonged period of time and I was really nervous about it, but Deisi made me feel so at ease!! The care, kindness, and attention taken, I cannot even begin to express how much I appreciate it! And the photos and videos were perfection. 12/10 recommend!”


9. Anna M.

“If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog and your home with TLC, Anna is your person! She’s so sweet, caring and attentive. I also received updates from her frequently on how my dog was doing, photos of her playing in the park with friends, on how she was eating and being cared for, and much more. As I was away on my vacation, I never had a feeling that something was amiss as Anna always gave me updates and peace of mind. Thank you so much for caring for my sweet girl. Looking forward to having you in our home again soon!”




10. Monique B.

“I’ve had the privilege of having Monique stay in my apartment with my dog several times now and I can never say enough positive things! She sends frequent daily updates with photos, is always incredibly communicative, and my dog is clearly so well taken care of, as is my apartment. I’m so happy to having such a trusted sitter for my dog!”
11. Katrina C.


“This was the second time in the same week hiring Katrina to take care of the pups. She lives close by so she was very flexible about key exchange, meeting me and the puppies, and coming over at the agreed times. She left the house just as it was when I left on vacation. I will definitely book her again 😊”


12. Anastasiia K.


“Our absolute BEST experience in 4 years of dog sitting! Anastasiia took our high-energy, anxious dog on several long walks every day, sent us multiple daily updates, and loved him the way we do while we were gone. You’d never know she stayed in our apartment the way she cleaned up after herself. We have never felt so at-ease being away from our dog as we did with Anastasiia and will absolutely be rebooking in the future!”


13. Lauren M.

“Lauren was AMAZING! She was so caring, affectionate, she sent me pictures and videos of my dog throught the night to keep me at ease. She was so good with her!! I’d definitely book Lauren again!”


14. Kaylamay S.

“Kaylamay was fantastic. She looked after our dog Killy over the Christmas period and sent us regular updates of how she was doing. Killy loved her stay-cation and we got to enjoy a stress free break. Would definitely use again.”


15. Emily M.

“Emily was a great sitter with my senior dog, who immediately warmed up to her. Emily sent daily updates and photos, and was flexible around my fluctuating schedule. She also left the apartment as tidy as I’d left it. Highly recommend, and I’d love to have her house sit again.”


16. Iris O.


“Iris is AMAZING! such a great communicator and got back to me on such quick short notice on taking care of Miko the day before and took care of her like she was her own I absolutely recommend her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


17. Benjamin F.
“Ben is amazing!! He is sweet, snuggly and a charitable belly rubber. I know him as a coworker as well as a dog lover and in all areas of his life and work he is attentive, caring and responsible. Dogs flock to him because they know he will shower them with pats. I would trust him with my dog in a second.”


18. Sapphire D.

“Sapphire took great care of my pup Lilly while I was out of town for a long weekend! My regular sitter was sick, so I reached out with short notice right before a holiday, and Sapphire made it work! She was very responsive and communicative throughout, replying quickly to questions and making sure to check in about little things like feeding and departure time. She also took great care of the apartment and left everything tidy and neat. Thanks Sapphire, I will definitely be in touch when Lilly needs a sitter again!”


19. Denise R.

“She was amazing with our dog! She took many photos, told us everyday how's his day going, and kept us updated when needed. She was professional through and through. We reccomend and we will ask for her again in the future! 😁”


20. Dylan R.

“Dylan made us feel so at ease from the moment he walked through the door. We knew our pups were in good hands. He kept us updated and was very considerate.”
