Anthony took great care of our two toy poodles, house sitting for us with them while we were traveling for several days. He is trustworthy, thorough and kept us informed with picture and text updates. Our poodles took to him right away and upon our return were calm and obviously well cared for. I would highly recommend him to care for your pets.

We had a last minute cancellation 30 minutes before a sitter was to arrive. Samara responded to our request immediately and was quick to set us up to watch Poe. Poe was staying home for the day after an emergency care visit, and Samara was so kind and attentive. We informed her our concern with his loss of appetite and she took time to gently hand feed him during our suggested meal times. We were sent picture and video updates to ease our mind throughout the day. So thankful for her care and we hope to book her to watch Poe again in the future!

Elizabeth was patient and understanding with my dog Day 1 was very anxious for me cuz my dog always has "stranger danger" alert on but it didn't take awhile for my dog to get used to her and they became best friends right away! She sends updates and very prompt/ attentive when there was issues with my dog. She definitely knew what to do. would 100% recommend 😀

Meric was probably the best rover we have had yet! He was awesome with our frenchie. On time to house sit, and listened to all the requests we had. He fed Maurice his oral medication as well. I would highly recommend Meric!!! We will absolutely be using him again

It was our first time booking Aiayana and she did a fantastic job taking care of my dog during the holiday season. We loved her personality right from our first meeting! Aiayana kept us updated by sending pictures of Ginger's daily routine and she went the extra mile when my dog had an accident on the carpet. Additionally, she left the house spotless and even cleaned my cat's litter box, which was not a part of her job. We'll definitely book her again!

Salette was fantastic with our dog, Nox and I would highly recommend her. Our dog can be very skittish and exhibits herding behaviors, but Salette read our dog’s behavior the minute she walked in. Nox also has to take medications for her allergies, Salette followed her regimen very well and we noticed that Nox’s skin was in really good condition when we returned from our trip. Salette also had excellent communication while we were away, making my husband and I feel confident that there were no issues while we were away. Our place looked just like we left it, making our return even easier.

Adeanna was amazing with our 2 dogs for house sitting for 5 days! She came to meet up prior so she could get a better understanding on how to take care of our dogs. Then when it was time for her to come stay at our space, Adeanna was extremely communicative checking in and sending pics throughout the day. She was also excellent and providing nuance care our 2 dogs. Our dogs love Adeanna and we highly recommend her! 😁😁
