2. Abraham L.

“Abraham was amazing! My dogs really enjoyed having his company and I loved how communicative he is. He follows every instruction and he was very patient with the different needs from both of my dogs. I highly recommend him if you want your dogs to feel happy and loved.”


3. Nova W.


“Nova was awesome! This was the first time I had ever left them with someone other than family. I have to say I didn’t worry one bit! She sent pictures and kept me up to date on happenings. Love her!!! Oh yeah and my babies love her too! Already have another booking and will want her every time in the future.”


4. Brenna C.

“Brenna was fantastic while staying with my senior dog Mason! She kept me updated the whole time and made sure he got his medication without any issues. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”


5. Russell D.


“Russell is so attentive to our pups! He sent many pictures. We have already booked our next trip for Russell to keep the kids again! A great guy!!!”


6. Kyra F.

“Did a great job taking care of my pups and was able to book last minute. Only thing I would have asked for her to differently is call me when my not so easy dog was to anxious to go outside and had multiple accidents in our apartment. But that is my fault for not specifying.”


7. Jasmine W.

“Jasmine was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly kind and communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. She handled my three large dogs — two of which are elderly — with total confidence and care. It’s clear she has a natural ability with animals and really took the time to make sure each of my dogs was comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a capable, trustworthy sitter!”


8. Merlot W.

“Words cannot describe how wonderful Merlot has been with my dogs!”


9. Randie-Erika V.

“Randie did a great job house sitting and keeping our golden aged gal company and calm. She was absolutely tuckered out when we returned from all the attention and walks Randie gave. Randie did a great job on communication, with regular updates and photos that we loved. Highly recommend hiring Randie if you’d like peace of mind while you’re out of town.”


10. Brianna A.

“Briana was great with my pups while I was out of town! She worked with my schedule and even accommodated some delays on my part. They were well taken care of while I was out.”


11. Isaias R.
“For as long as I've known Isaac, he has loved animals and has dedicated his life to his own dogs. He loves literally every animal he meets. He also rescues any stray he sees, often reuniting them with their oner, getting them into a rescue or fostering them until adopted. I've also rescued dogs that he has graciously offered to foster. I would say his love for and dedication to animals is one of his defining characteristics, and I would trust him to care for my pets.”


12. Camryn C.

“Camryn is a wonderful sitter and super sweet. I know I don’t have to worry about my dogs or my home when they are in her care, which means the world to me! I feel very blessed to have found a sitter I can trust with my fur children. Thank you, Camryn, for being amazing!”

They rely on me for feeding, waking and keeping their pets busy while they are away. my days are very open while my kids are in school. I have plenty of time in my days to care for your pet and keep them busy thought out the day. Feeding, walking, baths if needed, play time, taking them out to potty as often as they need. Most importantly, keeping them safe and stress free while their family is away.


16. Alexis L.
“Alexis has watched my three dogs on multiple occasions. She has always been very reliable and very loving towards my pets. They know who she is and they’re so excited when she comes over. She has come to check on them even more than I have requested, and she sends me pictures of them during the day. I can honestly say that Alexis is an animal lover. Whoever selects her will be completely happy with the care and affection she will show their pets.”
