“This was the first time we went away without the sweet little rescue dog that we adopted a year ago. Lucinda was kind and gentle and patient with her, and was able to build trust. We just got home, the dog is in great soirits, and the house looks great! We received daily updates that set our minds at ease. We are so grateful for the outstanding care that Lucinda provided while we were away!”


“mackenzie was so great with my dog, she was thorough and proactive in making sure kane would be as comfortable as possible during their time together. highly recommend!”


“Lilliana went above and beyond in watching our home and dog, giving us so much peace of mind and going the extra mile from meet and greet to when we returned from our trip! Cannot recommend her enough!”


“I absolutely loved having Heather take care of our precious babies. We have a doodle and a kitten and both were well taken care off. Heather spent two nights at our house with both pets. Our dog immediately took to her and was very comfortable. Our kitten is a kitten and needed some time which is normal. Heather followed our provided instructions and was kind enough to keep us updated and available when we checked in on the pets. Heather also left a follow-up note behind stating how both pets did and kept the house as it was. We are looking forward to building a long time relationship with Heather for as long as she is available.”


“Kathryn responded promptly when we reached out seeking a replacement sitter when our scheduled person needed to cancel for a family emergency within a week of our trip. She was clear with her availability around her work commitments, and was conscientious with communication throughout her stay. This communication extended to contacting us regarding unforeseen events (a large branch falling on the roof during a windstorm, which she addressed with sound problem-solving and care) as well as any questions during our stay. We returned to our dog happy, our home clean and both well cared-for.”


“Ann is incredible! This was my first time using a sitter for my senior dog, and I was definitely a bit anxious. Ann completely eased my worries—she followed all directions carefully, checked in regularly, and made sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful for her attentiveness and warmth. Thank you SO much, Ann! I’m looking forward to working with you again in the future.”


“Stephanie watched our pets during a long weekend trip. She was responsive and attentive and left our house in great shape. One of our dogs had a poop incident that required a lot of work to handle, and Stephanie notified us right away and made sure everything got cleaned up. I appreciated the frequent updates and photos. Would not hesitate to hire her again!”


“Emily did a great job house sitting and caring for our sweet dog. She gave us regular updates with pictures and looked after our apartment. We would definitely use her again!”


“Celeste watched over my 3 cats and our home while I was away. She followed all of the care instructions and was very communicative. The updates were great and all of the cats were happy upon return. Thanks again!”


“Chloe is wonderful! She did awesome house sitting and pet sitting our Goldendoodle and he was clearly well cared for and happy. She sent tons and pics and updates and the house was cleaner than we left it. Will definitely use her again!”


“Al was great! They were super communicative - gave daily updates with pictures and responded quickly whenever I reached out. Our house looked great when we got home. Al even picked up the poop in the backyard when the lawn service came (above and beyond the call of duty!). We would have Al again in a minute!”



“Our two dogs were instantly at ease with Kelly the moment they met her. She watched our two large dogs (60lb and 70 lb) for eleven days while we were traveling. She took each of them on a walk every morning, kept them company during the day, and spent the night at our house for their peace of mind (and ours). She coped admirably with an unexpected outbreak of ants in the kitchen that started the morning before we left, and with our inquisitive Shepherd chewing up her sunglasses. In addition, she fed our pet frogs twice weekly and watered our house plants. She sent us daily updates and pictures of the dogs. When we returned home, our dogs were happy to see us but calm and didn't appear stressed in the least. We look forward to hiring Kelly again to care for our dogs.”


“Cindy took amazing care of our pup and two cats in our home! I was so impressed with her attention to detail and followed all our instructions perfectly. Not to mention she left the house spotless as well. A great pet sitting experience!”



“Clark took excellent care of my two dogs and communicated well throughout the entire process of booking and the stay itself. Thank you Clark, hope you’ll come back and see Daisy and Ziggy.”


“Franchesca was so great and I have already rebooked her. She communicated well with me and Maverick was a happy boy when I got home! My house was in great shape when I returned.”



“If you are looking for someone to take care of your pet, then look no further. Marianne took such good care of our family dog when we were away for five days. She gave Sugar more love, care and activity than I could have asked for, keeping me in the loop every step of the way since it was her first time watching her. I always new that Sugar was in great hands, and I couldn't recommend Marianne more.”


“Beth took care of our two dogs and house for ten days while we were out of the country eloping. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! From daily walks to thoughtful care, she went above and beyond, and we were able to fully relax and focus on our time together, getting thoughtful updates without needing to ask. We came home to happy, relaxed pups—and a house that was somehow cleaner than when we left. One of the sweetest moments was watching Albus and Ponyo run after her to say goodbye; it was clear they adored her. I would trust Beth with my dogs (and our home) anytime. She's responsible, kind, and clearly has a gift with animals. Truly top-notch.”
