Marjorie does a great job with our dog. I love how much she communicates with us. It means a lot that my dog is really comfortable around her.

I was worried leaving my somewhat nervous dog, Julia, and two cats, Jinx and Ollie, for a few nights alone while traveling for work. My dog gets especially lonely—as she is very attached to me. Laszlo came over a few days to meet the animals and I was impressed with his ability to connect with Julia and make her feel comfortable within the first half-hour. Laszlo visited the animals 3x a day (while I originally requested just 2) to make sure Julia got walks and love, and really spent his time with them. I appreciated the photos, detailed reports, and care he had for all of my pets (one of cats is particularly rambunctious and tries to go out and Laszlo handled Jinx with care and respect and also kept him in—which was great!). Not worrying about the animals while working was truly a gift, and I highly highly recommend him. Can’t say enough good things.

About: I have worked with my dog Onyx since getting him (now AKC Good Citizen) and as well as potty training. I have had many dogs since a young age as well. I’m currently in school and want to help out with morning pet activities or necessities . Also possibly also incorporate my own dog with having new friends. My pets are on scheduled feeding times and timely walks and play. Walks mainly around the city and local parks. Also socializing in pet friendly stores and car rides in harnessed car seats and/or carriers.

Ellee was truly excellent checking in on our cats Jinx and Ollie over Thanksgiving. She went above and beyond in every way, and we will definitely book her again down the road.

Sarah took care of both my dog and cat while I was on vacation for a week last year. When I got home, I realized she had gone above and beyond. Both of them were taken care of, the litter box was clean, and their toys were even organized. The only bad thing was that I had to step up my game to be their favorite again!

Coen did a great job taking care of my pets. He was responsive to my messages and easy to communicate with. It's clear that he cares deeply about animals and goes the extra mile to make sure they are happy and well cared for. My dog has some trust issues with new people and he was incredibly sensitive to her special needs and now they are best friends! I definitely recommend him to other pet parents and will use him again myself.

Skyler was great with Stacy and easy to coordinate with. He was able to meet with Stacy and I before his first sitting with her, and all went well in his care. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for drop offs and for overnight trips.

Anthony has been watching all my cats and my dog for the past 3 years. He is loving patient and considerate. His attention to detail when I give him a list of things my dog requires is super helpful in making me Feel better. As a veteran myself I have needed to ask him to watch my dog for extended period of time while I was away on duty and he has been wonderful in communicating and calling while me to FaceTime my dog while I was overseas. Couldn’t ask for a better companion for my dog than a Marine. My animals love him more than me.

Megan is the BEST! When we had our German Shepherd Sadie, we asked her to trim her nails and babysit her a few times while my husband and I went out of town, and I swear that dog came back to us happier than ever! She loves dogs and I am so thankful for that. I can vouch that she will take care of any of your doggos needs! :)
