We went out of town for a few days and had Leo house sit and watch our two pups. We loved the daily updates and the dogs seemed very happy when we got home. We really appreciated Leo taking care of our home and our dogs while we were away and would definitely hire him again.

Lauren house and dog sat for us for a second time, this time for a whole week, and she was great! She’s reliable and attentive and sent me daily updates and pics. She even drove our finicky dog to her favorite park to walk her everyday. And our house was exactly as we’d left it. Thank you, Lauren!

As soon as we met Jennifer we knew she'd be a great fit for our pups! She is already an animal expert, super friendly, responsive, knowledgable, and just an all-around lovely person. We got plenty of updates while we were traveling, and our house and dogs were happy and well taken care of when we came home from our trip - and we've already booked Jennifer for another weekend! Thank you so much!

Dori was everything we hoped for; attentive to Bernie, and I could tell his needs were being met by his comfort with her. She sent photos and check-ins everyday, and left our house as it was, if not cleaner. She was a gem.

As an extra bonus, her photos are so good! Our house was well cared for, clean, and she even washed her sheets and towels before she left. What a professional! We are very happy customers and would definitely book her again.

I wholeheartedly recommend Adriana for a dog-sitting position. As someone who frequently travels for extended periods, I have entrusted Adriana with the care of my Doberman, who is three years old and quite timid around strangers. Adriana has consistently demonstrated her ability to connect with my dog in a way that puts him at ease. Her patience, kindness, and understanding of my dog’s behavior have made her an invaluable asset during my absences. She is not only reliable but also genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs, ensuring that they receive the attention and care they deserve. I have complete confidence in Adriana's ability to provide a safe and nurturing environment for any dog she watches. I highly recommend her for any dog-sitting opportunities, as I believe she will exceed expectations and create a positive experience for both pets and their owners.

Lauren provided in-home petting sitting for my two french bulldogs. I couldn’t be happier with her service! She asked great questions, was prompt with responses, sent super cute update photos, and kept my pets and home very safe and happy. My pets can be anxious when I’m gone, but I can tell that they were very comfortable with Lauren! It is obvious that Lauren loves dogs and cares for each as if they were her own! She kept my house spotless and even watered my plants! Words cannot express how thankful I am to have found such a thoughtful, attentive dog sitter (she is also a lovely, kind and funny person).
