1. Melissa S.

“Melissa is simply amazing. We have re-booked her over 10 times for home visits and home sitting our pet, Scott. We all were going on an international trip of ~10 days and we were worried since this was the first time we using someone’s services to stay at home and take care of Scott. Punctuality is Melissa’s virtue and Scott was absolutely comfortable with her. All those 10 days, we were very peaceful and Melissa ensured, with pictures and videos of Scott, that we were always in touch! A very big shout out to Melissa for a fantastic service!”

9. Kathy R.

“Kathy knows her business and has a natural connection with dogs. Our little Chihuahua mix is very shy with strangers, but Kathy gave her a "massage" that immediately won her over. We were very comfortable knowing Kathy was taking care of our dog and two cats for the holidays. Highly recommended.”


10. Lissette L.

“We booked Lissette for a second time, and couldn’t be happier. She house sat for a week and a half, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that everything was taken care of at home. Our cat and our dog have formed a very cute bond with her, as we’ve seen by all the photos she sends us of them cuddling! Our home was clean and well taken care of when we returned. Can’t wait to book with Lissette again!”

17. Kristie C.
“Kristie has always been a loving pet owner who takes care of them like they were her own children. As long as I have known her she always puts the wellbeing of her pets first in any situation, she had two cats with diabetes that she took care of and gave insulin shots every day.I remember she actually had gotten a second job just to help pay for all the medical bills for them that's how dedicated she is to her pets. Dogs and cats always seem to love her personality as they always come up to her. I have know Kristie for over 20 years and she is responsible and prompt on time for whatever engagement she needs to make. My pets love , and I trust her without any worries to take care of them when I am away. She is the perfect person to take care and pet sit for people, dogs and cats can sense her good personality and trust her.”


18. Tricia P.

“Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️”


19. Samantha L.

“Samantha was wonderful with our large german shepherd Tuk. She took great care of our house, left everything super clean, and took Tuk to all his favorite places. I can't recommend her highly enough!”


20. Laboni G.
“I have had Laboni watch my dog Jameson many, many times. Jameson goes crazy when he sees her walk up my driveway because he already knows how much love, care, and attention he’s going to get. She is always on time and so happy to be there. Whenever I know I will need someone to watch him, the first person I think of is her because I can put all my trust in her caring for my dog. I have been telling her every time she watches him that she should think about this as a profession. She also takes care of my friends dogs and some of those dogs have special needs as well. I would trust Laboni over anyone !!!”
