5. Haley N.
“Haley has been a pet sitter for me many times, caring for my cat, Sunny! She is kind, compassionate, and communicative, and she always sends pictures to show me how Sunny is doing, which makes being away from home a bit easier. Sunny is very comfortable with Haley too! In fact, she'll run right up to Haley to greet her, and often likes to curl up on Haley's chest. I think this is a testament to how much Haley loves animals and how lovingly she cares for them. Haley is the best!”


6. Sierra L.

“Sierra was wonderful. She sent regular updates, asked questions when she was unsure, and left our home as clean as we left it. Sierra even picked up a large outdoor plant that was knocked over during severe wind. I have already booked her for another pet sitting job next month and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Robert is a great help when we are out of town, 3 times in the last month. Robert lives close by and is very accessible. He knows a lot about dogs and how to socialize them.

13. Tiffany S.

“Tiffany took great care of our dog Cody. Her daughter was great with Cody also. We have used her twice for house sitting Cody.”


14. anden e.

“Anden was such a fantastic house/dog/cat sitter. We highly recommend her. It’s always nerve-wracking leaving our floofs and home with a new sitter; and Anden set our worries to rest. She was highly communicative, sent regular pics and videos of floof cuteness to reassure us that everyone was doing well, and we arrived home to a clean house and happy, calm pets. Moreover, Anden gracefully handled several unexpected situations that arose. The first night we were gone, a storm took down several trees in our very long driveway- Anden immediately informed us and reassured us that she, her car, the pets, and our house were okay until we were able to get someone to clear the drive the next day. Then when we were delayed overnight on our journey home, Anden was flexible and agreed to stay an extra day to make sure the floofs were ok. We won’t hesitate to contact her again!”

16. Makenna B.
“I have been friends with Makenna for over 2 years now and she is the best dog owner. Her dogs are both big and she is able to have control of them at all times. She loves animals and will do anything to protect them. She loves playing with them, cuddles, car rides, walks. Whatever it may be she always has dogs around her. She loves it! I have worked with her for over 2 years now as well. She is a perfect employee. She will do any tasks perfectly. She's never late, never calls out, and overall, an amazing worker. She would be someone you continuously want to work with. She has great communication and personality, a great work ethic, and her love for dogs is truly beautiful.”


17. Kate S.

“Kate was absolutely amazing with my puppy! She sent lots of photos and updates and made sure my little Sharon was loved and exercised while I was away on a work trip. She made sure everything went very smoothly!”


18. Andreea P.

“Andreea was the perfect dog/house sitter for us. She communicates well, she took amazing care of our home and even better care of our German Shepherd. We will absolutely use her again!”
