1. Chloe F.
“Chloe was a fantastic sitter for our Bengal cat Diego! She was very communicative, easy to work with, and took great care of our home. We will definitely book her again.”
2. Madison F.
“Madison was super kind and enthusiastic and good at giving updates during the stay! They took really great care of my puppy and senior dog who has some special care needs.”
3. Stephanie H.
“Stephanie watched our pets during a long weekend trip. She was responsive and attentive and left our house in great shape. One of our dogs had a poop incident that required a lot of work to handle, and Stephanie notified us right away and made sure everything got cleaned up. I appreciated the frequent updates and photos. Would not hesitate to hire her again!”
4. Peter C.
“Peter did a great job taking care of my little loves. Jemma and Bernard were immediately comfortable. Peter sent updates, followed directions, and left the house looking great! Will definitely hire again!”
5. Helen C.
“Helen is so sweet and trustworthy! Our pup had never stayed with anyone before, so we were anxious but she immediately put our mind at ease. Our house looks cleaner than we left it and our pup looks happy. We’re so grateful! Thank you so much Helen!!”
6. emily f.
“Emily provides stellar care for our dog, and her communication and followup match this as well. She took care of some extra watering of outdoor plants in pots that would have otherwise crumped in the heat over the last week, and additional care of our dog (toothbrushing, not everyone's cup of tea but it's part of his nighttime ritual). We returned home to a house as we left it and a happy dog. Very grateful for her good care.”
7. Roan R.
“Roan was a lovely fit for our pack of pups at home. Roan is kind, thoughtful, and full of heart. Roan is also flexible and that meant a great deal to us. Due to a family death, our plans shifted and this time of year became a true challenge. So, I am grateful for the empathy Roan gave to both our pups and our family.”
8. Liza W.
“Liza was a great dog/housesitter! I have a fairly sensitive dog and she understood him well and he was happy and engaged during the entire visit. She was also very communicative and sent me regular updates. Would 100% recommend.”
9. Emily B.
“Emily is so great! She took terrific care of our dog & our home while sitting. Emily is super communicative, thoughtful and a very intuitive pet sitter. She bonded with our dog immediately! And shared detailed recaps daily with cute pics to go along. Will definitely book with Emily again!”
10. Sam D.
“Sam was fantastic! He house sat for us for 8 nights and took care of 4 cats and 1 large dog. We got enough updates, photos and video to reassure us that the animals were all enjoying Sam's company and being well cared for. House was left tidy. Definitely would hire him again and highly recommend him. Thank you, Sam!!”
11. Elena W.
“Elena watched our house and cats at very short notice. She was super easy to communicate with and we’d love to have her watch our cats again!!”
12. Lauren R.
“Lauren went above and beyond my expectations of a house/dog sitter. My dogs really liked her during our first meet & greet, and she was open to all of my special instructions and considerations (not just for my dogs, their routine/meds/walks, but also my house and how to care for it). I would happily have Lauren back to watch my dogs! She is lovely and someone that I can trust.”
13. Chelsea Z.
“Chelsea was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with and sent pictures without my even asking for them. My cats were chill and happy when I got home, a sure sign that they had a good time, and Ruby even slept up on the bed with Chelsea one of the nights I was gone! High praise in this house. I'll be hiring Chelsea again no question.”
14. Chardonay D.
“Chardonay and Ben are officially added to my list of dependable house and dog sitters! They took care of my two dogs, Fernando and Dolly, at my house while I was away for 4 days and I could not be more pleased. First and foremost, both the dogs were obviously well cared for and I received photo updates. From the get-go, Nando and Dolly took to Chardonay and Ben right away, and I felt reassured and could tell they were at ease with caring for dogs. Second, the house and yard were in immaculate condition when I returned. Seriously, spotless. Third, they are just super nice and great communicators both off- and online. Highly recommended!!!”
15. Catherine S.
“House, pets, and plants were well cared for. Catherine went above and beyond to make our pets feel loved while we were away. We'll definitely contact her again for our future trips.”
16. Kayla N.
“Kayla was such an attentive and communicative sitter. She took great care of Rocco taking him on walks and giving him lots of pets! We would definitely recommend her and look forward to working with her again.”
17. Hannah K.
“It's been a long time since leaving our two pups, and I was nervous as to how it would go. Hannah's incredible care put me at ease. Our pups got lots of love and walks while we were away. Will absolutely continue using Hannah's services.”
18. Shelly G.
“Shelly was an absolutely fantastic sitter during a 9 day stay with our reactive dog! She not only gained our dog’s trust quickly, but ours too. It was such a relief to have someone who understood and was empathetic to all of our quirky routines to help make our dog happier and more calm. Shelly was communicative, attentive, checked in daily with adorable photos, and left our place clean and tidy. We can’t wait to have Shelly stay with our girl, Lily, again.”
19. Jenny G.
“Jenny is such a wonderful pet sitter. She was good about checking in and sending pics. Very neat and polite and will definitely booking in the future”
20. Kiera U.
“We have a special needs dog and Kiera cared for him seemingly with ease. Our animals seemed very relaxed and happy when we got home and our house was just as clean as when we left it. We would definitely recommend Kiera and book with her again for future needs.”
