Nicole was wonderful! Our pups were clearly happy and very well taken care. We felt comfortable having her in our home and were so pleased to come home to a clean house.

Lillian is absolutely wonderful with my dog Bear. She has gone above and beyond the call of duty! Even when my pup had a accident while puppy training in the home before she got there she cleaned it up for me and continued to send updated photos and videos of my boy. I am very grateful to her services and care taking of Bear. Thank you!

Great job! Last time I had a pet sitter one cat hid for a week. So it’s been a long time. Came home to all the pets acting normal and happy. Definitely will be able to travel again, and Jailah will be my first choice or who she would recommend!

Danielle did an excellent job from start to finish. Because I found out late that our private sitter had to cancel, getting a replacement on such short notice was kind of stressful. Danielle had openings on the needed dates, and she quickly replied to my request. We set up a meet and greet, she came to our house, and the stress was gone. She immediately engaged with both dogs. They clearly liked her. My husband and I went up north, so cell service can be on and off. Danielle sent regular updates which I would see as soon as we were in range. I greatly appreciate that she left the house as neat as it was when we left; actually even neater. I would highly recommend Danielle. Thank you, Danielle for taking such good care of both dogs.

So beyond thankful that we found Samantha!!! We had her for 5 days taking care of our shy dog Ceaser and cat Dobby. The pictures and videos she sent daily were amazing and I could see both pets were comfortable and happy with Samantha. She gave them so much love and attention. We will hire her in a heartbeat next time!! She is amazing❤️❤️

About: I grew up having cats and dogs but now I just have 8 cats and I regularly pet and house sit for family. That includes animals that need medications orally and through a syringe so I am very familiar with giving animals meds. I work full time but I am 90% remote and have the flexibility to work from wherever and to be able to step away during the day and check on your animals. Seeing that I have 8 cats it’s always crazy. But I always take care of their needs everyday and make sure they’re taken care of before I am most days and I will do the same for your animals.

We have never used an In-house sitter before that we did not know, Ava did a great job of sending updates letting us know that the dogs lives were "normal". She was at the house a lot so our girls got all the attention they needed. They got outside probably more than with us. No issues with the house, all was the same as when we left. Very good experience for first timers. Will hire her back when the need arises.

Allison was great! I have a dog with separation and socialization issues, so Allison spent a day and a half at my home while my husband and I were out of town. She endured a severe thunderstorm complete with tornado sirens, and managed to keep our dog calm and focused. I would highly recommend Allison to house and/or petsit!

About: I have been surrounded by animals ever since I could walk! I have 8 cats ranging from 7 months to 13 years. My mom and I also fostered multiple cats when I was in high school. I have always had a soft spot for animals - specifically cats. I work a full time job currently. I am only available after 6pm during the week, but I am available most weekends. I will do my best to accommodate requests! As I have 8 cats at home, I don’t have the room to have any animals over at my own house. But, I promise to treat everyone’s home with the utmost respect. Since I have so many cats, I am very used to cleaning up messes if need be.

About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day. We have a fenced in yard with a chain link fence perfect for letting your dog run around. I am usually up by 5am to go for a run or cycle. I work from home regularly so I can be flexible with letting the dogs out. I have a fenced in yard with one friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.

She came out in a spare of the moment notification since my regular dog sitter was unavailable for a day. Josie did a fine job making sure my dog didnt destroy the house since his crate hasn't arrived yet. I appreciate her time.

This was the second time I booked Brady for almost a week at my house overnight. As usual Brandy was amazing with her communication and sent me lots of pics! She is a very honest, respectful and caring person. It’s very reassuring to know if I can’t be with my 120lb fur baby that he is being well cared for by her! She is always very attentive to his needs!

Grace was absolutely wonderful with our two shy and anxious dogs. Right before our trip, one of them developed an eye injury that required twice‑daily eye drops, and she administered the drops. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with messages, photos, and even a video, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she earned their trust and affection. We highly recommend Grace and would happily have her watch and walk our dogs again.

Mariah is simply amazing! My Vizsla/Weimaraner (high energy, high separation anxiety) loves Mariah every time we have her. This year he was diagnosed with EPI and diabetes, both of which I have all of the trust in the world with Mariah supporting us through it when I’m out of town. Having to support a strict diet routine and insulin twice daily, there was no doubt Maria was equipped to take on the challenge. Her extensive background makes me feel at ease every time I’m gone. No question, Mariah is the girl!
