12. Brittney M.
“Brittney was amazing with our schedule, the communication, and working with our pets. When we returned from our week long vacation everything was just as we left and well managed. Our dogs even started looking out the window anticipating her around the nighttime visit. She was hands down the best pet sitter we have had. We were hesitant at first changing from using a facility to a pet sitter at home due to issues in the past with schedules. However, this experience changed our minds and we would definitely use Brittney again in the future! We highly recommend 10 out 10!!”

I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
15. April M.

“Caroline was fantastic!!!! I had a last minute work scheduling in another city and she was able to come pop in to let my girl out to the bathroom while I got my life situated haha! She is so responsible and responsive! She sent tons of pictures of my girl! Couldn’t recommend her enough!!! <3”
18. Emily T.
About: I have officially been sitting for only a couple of years, but even as a young teenager I was already helping with friends and family's animals. I have experience with house training puppies, with senior dogs, and with training for basic manners. I also have helped a family friend with many foster puppies and learned a lot from that experience. I genuinely love animals and show that love with my work. Right now, I just started college i only have one class at night so I'm free most of the time. But I'm fine with just about any time I would prefer sitting in the client's home for personal reasons and for the animals comfort. I give all the animals in my care the same level of care and attention that I give my own animals.
19. Jessica B.
“Whenever Jessica has visited my home, she has always been loving and caring to our 3 dogs, Layla, Josie, and Stella, with Layla being our larger, older dog, Josie being our medium sized "middle child", and Stella being our smallest and youngest. Despite not being her pets, she has always taken an interest to them whenever she visits and loves to interact and play with them anytime that she can, as well as feeding and watering them whenever they may require it. She is also patient with them and tries to implement the tricks that we have tried to teach them in order to better reinforce these behaviors. Overall I know that Jessica is someone who loves pets, is incredibly gentle with them, and tries her best to take care of their health and make them happy, and it is for that reason that I believe that she would be great as a pet sitter.”
20. Shauna D.
“Shauna was great and helped super last minute. The communication was great and Shauna arrived right on time and took care of my pup. Super appreciated 👍🏼”
