1. Carla V.


“We were staying in an Airbnb out of state and were in need of a Pet Sitter for a family wedding and, after reading reviews, we found Carla. Carla came a few weeks before her scheduled time to stay with our golden doodle and we felt immediately at ease with her. She was easy to reach and communicative throughout the whole process. When the time came for her to watch our pup, she arrived in ample time so that we did not feel stressed about leaving on time. She immediately began playing with our dog. Throughout the stay she sent pics and we felt very at ease. Our pup was happy and had a lot of play time. Upon return, the house was clean, bed was stripped and everything was in order. If we were to return to the area, we would absolutely book Carla again in a heartbeat!”


2. Blake Z.
“Blake was wonderful, catsitting for our cat, Obie, while we were out of town for a few days. He is kind, responsible, and took wonderful care of Obie. Blake is very calm and understanding around animals and made our cat feel comfortable right away! Blake was also super responsive and understanding, when we weren't expecting to get a few inches of snow, he was so nice to help us clear our walk. Blake is a fantastic sitter and we will not hesitate to ask him to catsit again!”


3. Daniel W.

“Daniel stayed at our home for 4 days and took excellent care of our girl Chloe and the house itself. His relaxed nature is perfect for our dog and he was extremely conscientious, checking in with us now and then to let us know that things were going well and leaving our dog happy and our home in excellent condition. His communication was prompt and clear. Definitely a 5 star experience.”


4. Jason F.

“My dogs absolutely LOVED Jason! He definitely gets and understands how to connect with animals, and also knows the needs of a fur-mom when away; needing to know that they’re safe and content. He was communicative and always let me know how they were doing and what was going on. I’ll be calling on him again for sure!”


5. Laura F.

“Laura came and stayed with our two hound dogs for the weekend and took such great care of our pups! She had great communication with us while staying at our home and provided timely updates with lots of great pics. We were very comfortable with Laura and have already booked her again, highly recommend!”


6. Erin D.

“Erin did an amazing job with my fur babies. Would absolutely book her again! My house was clean and she washed bedding! She also did a lot of shoveling snow while we were away! So appreciative of all she did!”


7. Gillian L.

“Always great having Gillian watch my pups. She's very communicative throughout the entire stay, always sending photos and messages. She's my go to when it comes to a sitter choice!”


8. Atlas B.

“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”


9. Melissa H.

“Melissa took excellent care of our pups while we were away for the weekend! She kept in touch and sent pics and videos of them frequently. Our house was immaculate when we got home and the dogs were well loved and cared for. Melissa is great with animals and made us feel good about leaving the dogs with her. She is friendly, communicative, and upbeat- a great sitter!”


10. Andrea W.

“Andrea was great! She arrived right on time and kept us updated, and Apollo loved her. Will definitely recommend and ask her to hang out with Apollo again.”


11. Naomi W.
“Naomi has taken care of my pets on many occasions and done an amazing job. One of my dogs is reactive to other dogs and in addition is a “tripawd”, having lost a rear leg due to injury. She can be a bit of a handful to manage, due to her reactivity and also due to her physical limitations. Naomi is an expert managing her behavior and is keenly observant of her physical state; which allows her to plan walks that give my dog the right amount of exercise without overtaxing her. Naomi has also cared for my cats on many occasions and has an instinctive connection with animals, even very shy cats. She is extremely conscientious about feeding and medications, including special dietary requirements for my senior dog. I always feel complete peace of mine leaving my pets in her care.”


12. Nathan B.
“I am writing to recommend Nathan as a pet care provider. Nate has been doing pet care services now for going on 10 years. (In addition to providing this service, he also does house sitting.) Nathan is a pet owner himself and has helped me whelp 3 litters of German Shepherd pups, as well as raise/train my current German Shepherd. Nathan is a very responsible pet owner and a consummate professional. If you are looking to hire someone who will give your pet(s) the care and attention they deserve, please consider Nate for the job. You won't be disappointed!”

16. Sadie F.

“Sadie and her mom were absolutely amazing! They took care of Lola like she was a part of their family (and based on the photos, it looks like she felt similarly)! I would highly recommend Sadie if you’re looking for dog sitting in the mid-coast area.”


17. Candi W.

“Candi was great to work with. This was my first time being apart from Zoey since I adopted her a year ago. Candi took time to get to know Zoey and bond with her enough that I felt comfortable leaving Zoey in her care. It was a great weight off my mind to know that Zoey would be well taken care of and comfortable while I was away. I can definitely recommend Candi and hope to turn to her again, many times in the future!”


18. Selena S.
“Selena is incredibly responsible, compassionate, and reliable. She loves animals and connects with them deeply. Her empathy and intuition allows her the ability to discern the needs of people and animals. She also loves walking and being outdoors in all types of weather. I highly recommend Selena to care for your pet both inside and outside of your home.”


19. Julianna L.
About: I truly have loved an animals since I was a small girl. My family had a family dog and cat growing up who were both my partners in crime. My love for animals is huge and endless and I will instill the same care and support that I give my own pets to yours if you trust me enough to watch your precious furry friends. I’m currently home from traveling aboard trying to save up money to travel more! I’m free almost anytime of the day or week to be available for your pets! I own one tabby cat names pepper and one big German shepherd named Kai! Pepper receives lots of attention, treats, and cuddles when she wants it of course. Whole Kai gets numerous amounts of belly rubs, one lengthy walk and multiple times to play fetch through out the day. ( he also enjoys a good dance party ) I’ll respect all the wishes and request you have for your furry friends, like even having an afternoon dance party with your dog or cat. I can adjust my manner and behavior based off of what your pet needs at the time !


20. Lindsay S.
“Lindsay is an excellent dog sitter. My dog loves going to her home and spending time with her and her pups. She always comes back happy and having had a great time and ready to sleep from all the play time. Lindsay is attentive and communicates well about how things are going.”
