1. Jadyn T.

“Jadyn watched my dog again while I was out of town. She checked on the dog several times a day to spend time with her, let her outside to potty, and feed her. Jadyn is always responsive and attentive and takes great care of my old pup! I came home to a happy dog! Jadyn is the first person I contact when I am looking for a dog sitter!”


2. Beth B.

“We found Beth in a pinch on very short notice and she was wonderful. The 4 dogs loved her immediately. We have had a run of bad luck with dog sitters for a few years so very grateful to have found Beth. We are already planning to book her again next month😃.”


3. Giovanni B.

“Did everything under the sun to make sure our pup is cared for and we were stress free for our first trip without our dog. Couldn’t have had anyone more reliable.”


4. Shadae J.

“Shadae is excellent and is very enthusiastic about caring for pets! She always sends so many updates and pictures, it gives me peace of mind while I am away! I will be booking with her any time she is available and I have plans to be away!”

“Allison did a great job watching my pets! They both seemed happy and healthy when I came home from my vacation. She was quick to respond to messages and very flexible with making sure everything went well. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

7. Katelyn M.

“Katelyn did a great job watching our two dogs and cat over the weekend! We were thankful that she was able to watch them on short notice (few days in advance). Katelyn was thorough in ensuring she understood their care needs when we meet ahead of time and and throughout the visit. I definitely recommend Katelyn to anyone who is looking for a local pet sitter/walker!”


8. Ayden R.

“Ayden did a great job taking care of our dog. She sent lots of updates and pictures and made sure he was well taken care of. She met us before we left for the weekend and made sure to get a good understanding of our dog’s routines and behavior before we left. She is kind and took exceptional care of our dog. We will definitely be using her again!”


9. Tessa H.
“I have known Tessa for quite a long time and she has does not simply go out of her way to care for animals, she goes above and beyond to make sure the animals in her life (dogs, cats, rabbits, chameleons, etc.. ) have more than their basic needs. Her pets have plenty of mental stimulation, a great diet, exercise, and an abundance of love. Tessa is reliable and I can trust that the care she has extends to pets beyond her own.”


10. Laura S.

“Laura was great! This is our second time booking with her, and whenever she cares for our babies I am not anxious about them at all! She is very reliable and very good at communicating. It’s a pleasure to work with her!”


11. Dan S.

“Dan showed our pup a lot of love. He updated us with photos and followed instructions well. He will do the same for your furry friends!”


12. Sheree D.

“Sheree took care of my dog while I was out of state. I was pretty nervous about being away from home for a few days and having to entrust my older dog to someone else. But Sheree made this time totally easy for me. Our meet and great was very nice and I received regular wonderful written updates and lovely photos and videos while I was away, which made my absence easier. My Ivy made a very happy impression on my return and she was very well looked after. I highly recommend Sheree and will happily entrust her with my dog's care again.”


13. Madisyn R.
“Maddi watched after our cattle dog Kimchee for a weekend while we were away and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable. She was thorough when asking questions about Kimchee’s care and sent picture updates while we were away. Maddi stayed in our apartment and was very respectful of our home. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your pet.”


14. Brendin H.

“Brendin is great with his dog and cat. He is so thoughtful and caring. He has such a soft spot for animals. And in general he is organized and detail-oriented.”


15. Karen S.

“Karen is awesome! My dogs are well taken care of by her and have fun and relaxed when I can’t be there. She is very attentive, responsive, keeps me updated, and there when the girls need care and loving. She sends me photos, follows my info on the dogs, and leaves my home spotless. She’s great!!! I trust my two dogs with her unconditionally!”


16. Zachary A.

“Zachary was a respectful guest in our house. Stayed with our animals while we were out of state for a wedding, providing updates and pictures that captured their expected behavior. Came home to two happy animals and a house like we left it which is always reassuring when traveling. There were a few glitchy moments with the site not allowing messages to be sent and one misinterpreted update, but Zachary cleared up the miscommunication and sent updates when available. Overall couldn’t complain about a thing.”


17. Kendall H.
“I have used Kendall for pet-sitting and home sitting for years. She is reliable, trustworthy, loves animals and my dogs all love her. I have had many friends and neighbors call me to get her contact information because her reputation is so good.”


18. Allison D.
“I could not have asked for a better sitter for my 3 little ones. Reliable, kind, responsible and dedicated to my pets is the best thing someone can be when babysitting my dogs. Allison was all of these things and more. I will be asking her again anytime I’m looking for someone to watch my dogs. A+++”


19. Karly J.

“Karly was great with our elderly dogs. We plan to use her again.”


20. Camila T.

“Camila was amazing with our pup! Our dog is not the easiest as she is reactive and has particular triggers. But Camila was able to accommodate all of our needs and knows how to manage those triggers. She was super communicative and gave us peace of mind in caring for our home and dog. She was attentive, sweet, and made sure to give quality care with everything. I would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet!”
