1. Chelsea D.

“Chelsea was so sweet to help us in a pinch and stay with our kitties while one of them was sick and fed him his medicine! She stayed with them for 3 nights and took such great care of them. She sent tons of photos and updates along the way that made us feel at ease. She also was kind enough to water our Christmas tree even though she didn’t have too! We will definitely use Chelsea again in the future!”

He is a great communicator and sends pics regularly. Our home is spotless when we get home and our pets are relaxed and happy. Thank you Jeffrey for another great pet sit.”

I definitely recommend Erin if you are looking for someone to be reliable and care for your pets when you’re away!”

16. Sarah L.

“We could not be more pleased! Usually we board our pups, but one had a cough so this was our first time traveling without them while leaving them home with a sitter. To say we were nervous was an understatement (we might be slight helicopter parents haha) but once we met Sarah, saw how she was with the anxious pups (who were not accustomed to having visitors), and how quickly the pups warmed up to her, we instantly felt better and were already discussing our next booking :) Sarah communicated often and truly seemed to enjoy her time with our furbabies. I would highly recommend Sarah and will certainly be using her services again!”


17. John-Ruben J.

“John was reliable and communicative. I returned home to happy pups.”


18. Melanie W.
“A fur friendly choice for when you need help with your pets! Melanie goes above and beyond when it comes to animal care. She is a great pet owner who you can trust. Book with her for outstanding service!”


19. Logan T.

“Logan was so great with our dogs and we would definitely book him again! One of them has resource guarding issues and Logan was confident in handling any aggression that might come up. He spent tons of time with them, walked them and played outside a bunch too. He asked how much communication / how often we wanted updates and sent tons of great pictures. He even printed out a few for us to have for frames, which was so thoughtful and sweet! I could tell our dogs had a great time with him and I felt great about having him there watching them. Logan also made sure to ask questions during the meet and greet and made me feel confident that he could handle any issues and that he cared for my dogs. I would definitely recommend him to others!”
