“Very responsive, pleasant, and flexible. Would absolutely rebook, thank you!”
2. Julia B.
“Julia has watched the two of my cats on numerous occasions for overnight stays. She goes above and beyond every time! From feedings, to litter cleanings, and even giving one of my cats his inhaler, I can take comfort knowing they will be taken care of with the same level of care that I do myself. She is highly communicative and prompt in answering about any questions I have regarding the boys. I highly recommend Julia as a sitter!”
3. Lindsay R.
“Lindsay has been a true asset to our family and pet needs! Lindsay is well organized and scheduled, but even better than that she shares her love with others and cares for animals deeply. Lindsay has assisted in watching our dog and 2 cats throughout the years for vacations where she has overseen their feeding and exercise needs! With a great attitude and kind heart we would recommend Lindsay to any pet parent looking for some topnotch care Thank you, Lindsay, for everything!”
4. Palma T.
“Palma did an amazing job caring for our two Huskies while we were away . She went above and beyond to make sure their needs were met and that they received plenty of love and attention in our absence . Palma communicated with us on a daily basis and provided updates . We would highly recommend Palma and look forward to using her again in the near future .”
5. Casey G.
“Casey was quick to reply and took on a request with fairly short notice. Great communication, super nice, on time. We will absolutely be reaching out again! Thank you!”
6. Mariah G.
“Mariah house-sat for us and took care of our cat and dog for a period of 14 days while we were traveling. I can’t say enough positive things about the level of responsibility and caring she demonstrated. Unfortunately our cat became very sick with onset of seizures in that time and Mariah acted with speed and composure, and sought the medical support our cat needed in our absence, thus saving his life. She went above and beyond our expectations in caring for him once he returned from the emergency hospital. Mariah was excellent in her communication with us throughout our stay and our pets loved her. I would highly recommend Mariah for any pet/house sitting position.”
7. Brittany B.
“Brittany graciously took a very last minute booking for me, was prompt in responding/great communication, and flexible. Sent updates and checked in with me while she was here. I will definitely be asking her back 😊 Thank you!”

“Allore is fantastic! She has house sat for me twice now and she is great. She’s communicative, good with all my animals, flexible, and reliable.”
9. Jillian H.
“Jillian was great! Good communication and arrived early which was super helpful. I have a uncommon dog breed and she asked plenty of questions about them to better understand their mannerisms. Would absolutely book again. Thank you!”
10. Jenny C.
“Jenny is amazing! We left her with our 1 year old dog who has separation anxiety and he clearly had an amazing time! He has been so afraid of climbing the stairs, but Jenny was able to teach him how, which was a complete surprise and added bonus. So grateful for her patience and companionship to Kylo - he really benefitted from their time together. <3”
11. Avery B.
“Avery has a big heart and a vested interest in the welfare of animals. She's owned both cats and dogs and she has always made their care a top concern in her life. She's punctual, friendly, and extremely diligent, and has personally cared for my two kittens on multiple occasions. Every time I left with full confidence that their needs would be met and they would be safe 😌”

19. Kadia C.
About: I could definitely work with training your puppies It just takes a lot of patients which I have for animals only lol I am very hard working, and attentive and respectful of peoples spaces I am a full time student but I am available on weekends. Tuesday after 4:20 and Thursday after 1:40. I would never mind spending a few hours watching your pet! I am currently in a college dorm but I do have two dogs at home if I needed to host. I would just tend to your dog how you would prefer in your home.

“Jayda has been an absolute star. She is punctual, kind and very good with dogs. My dog loved having her around. She left the house very clean. Can only recommend and will definitely book her again.”
