Jackalyn did great with Wilbur, who needs a lot of exercise and stimulation ;). She was responsive, kind and helpful in coordinating drop off and pick up. And she sent pictures and updates on how he was doing the whole time we were gone! 10/10 will work with Jackalyn again!

Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!

Janel made sure Lake was well taken care of during our weekend visit to DCL! She sent frequent updates/pics and took him on plenty of walks to get his exercise in. She was also very accommodating in letting us pick him up to take him on the boat with us and drop him off afterwards. Great Rover - thanks for watching after Lake!

Fathia was so awesome! She took such great care of Thelma and welcomed her into her family! She was warm and attentive and fun and was so joyful having Thelma with her. Got great update pics and feedback and Fathia had such a warm, confident and competent vibe, which is so important when you are far away. She gave Thelma the TLC she deserves and i would not hesitate to have her care for her again.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zulma. From the moment I walked into her house she made me feel completely at ease about leaving my dogs in her care. She asked thoughtful questions about their routines and treated them as if they were her own. Throughout my time away, she provided regular photos and videos, that brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, well cared for and completely comfortable with her. I was able to actually enjoy my trip knowing they were in capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and generally caring I will highly recommend Zulma. I’m so grateful to have found her.

Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.

Diego, was great caring for our fur babies during our vacation. He communicated with us everyday and provided photos and. videos of our babies enjoying themselves. They appeared to he enjoy him and his roommate. Our babies are spoiled at home and we can tell they received the same attention as if they were home. We really appreciated this. He provided them space both indoors and outdoors for them to run and have as much playtime as the needed. Diego understood their mealtime and gave Apollo extra attention so he would eat as he is normally not a good eater. They Loved hanging out with his puppy CoCo and they all seemed to get a long great. We don’t trust anyone else watching our babies but Diego! Thank you so much for treating our babies like family.

Patience was absolutely AMAZING!! She cared for my pup like she was family. Peaches acted like she didn’t want to come home. Lol! Patience communicates daily with videos and messages to provide reassurance that your fur baby is great hands. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking with Patience again in the coming weeks. I cannot thank her enough for her support and the TLC she gave to Peaches.

Serena is fantastic and a great person. When a problem came up between my dog and an off leash dog, she immediately texted/called/video called and kept me updated the whole time. While my dog was happy to see me, she was mad she had to leave Serena because she got all the attention and walks she demands. Highly recommend Serena and any dog will have the time of their life with her

Melissa was incredible with our Bear Bear. He struggles with separation anxiety, but her warm and gentle demeanor put him completely at ease. She kept us in the loop with tons of photos — Bear playing, enjoying treats, running around the backyard, and snuggling up. It didn't take long for him to go from anxious to absolutely in Love. We'll definitely be booking Melissa again. She's the best!
