1. Sherylee C.
“Sherylee was super kind to us and our dog. She communicated throughout the day and provided pics. I would highly recommend Sherylee and look forward to having her watch our puppy again. Thank you!”
2. Giselle C.
“I can’t say enough good things about Giselle. Her communication skills are excellent. She responds to the unexpected with grace and poise. We have a traumatized grumpy old cat who doesn’t like anyone other than us, and she took great care of her for almost 3 weeks sending us photos every day. I could see our cat slowly getting more comfortable, which is a miracle! Further proof of Giselle’s attuned care is that our cat did not lose any weight while we were away! Giselle is absolutely reliable, supremely kind, and honest. She handled our mail exactly as we wanted and left our home in perfect condition. We feel so fortunate to have found Giselle!”
3. Kathryn S.
“Kate was incredible while sitting Remy! She took great care of him and sent a bunch of pictures and updates while watching him. Kate even gave me some pointers on how to get Remy to stop leash pulling. Can't wait to book with Kate again!”
4. Natalie C.
“Natalie dog sat and house sat for us for 10 days over the holiday and was absolutely amazing! She gave us updates on the dogs and sent pictures (which my kids loved), took them for daily walks and left our house in perfect condition. We have 2 big doodle mixes (60 pounds and 75 pounds). and they can be pretty needy at times. She did a great job and I would recommend her to anyone and definitely use her again.”
5. Michael S.
“Michael did an amazing job watching my dog-reactive dog over Christmas. He’s communicative and reliable and provided excellent care on relatively short notice over the holiday. I will definitely use him as a sitter again!”
6. Kayla F.
“Kayla was fantastic for watching my 2 pups and kitties while away. She was super receptive to their little quirks (including walking them outside on leashes in the yard during the rain because they think they’re sugar and going to melt, and would not go out!). I would definitely recommend using Kayla and plan on booking her again when she is available.”
7. Lindsey B.
“Lindsey was wonderful with our three-year-old black Lab, taking care of him and our home over the Thanksgiving holiday. We're delighted to get to work with her going forward and look forward to our next trip that much more confidently as a result!”
8. Gabrielle G.
“Gabby stayed with our 15 year old, newly diagnosed as diabetic, cat hunter for 4 days. She made sure he received all of his meds, including insulin injections, as instructed. Gabby sent photos and text updates throughout each day. Additionally, she took Hunter to the vet twice to receive his scheduled fluid treatments and made sure his litter box was cleaned daily. We arrived home to a clean house & a happy Hunter. Gabby is very personable, timely & a pleasure to know. I highly recommend Gabby as a responsible, professional & caring pet sitter.”
9. Laura K.
“Laura is one of the most responsible young person I’ve ever known. She has always been very good at taking care of her responsibilities. She has always been around dogs and cares for them deeply. Her own dog is the love of her life and is very spoiled and loved. She would absolutely take care of another’s family’s pet as if it was her own.”
10. Jasmine M.
“Jasmine was great! Very good communication. Our dog was very calm and happy when we returned. House was left spotless. Will certainly book with her again!”
11. Jessica L.
“Jessica was amazing!! Pia was well taken care of and our home too!”
12. Brendon B.
“Brendon did an admirable job juggling the needs of my puppy, senior dog, and cat when I had to be away for a long weekend. No easy feat! He was great at sending photos and keeping me updated, which helped me relax.”
13. Louise Y.
“Louise is a fantastic pet sitter. She watched our 8-month-old puppy all day, closely following our instructions, keeping detailed notes (such as time of bathroom trips, walks, meals, and naps; how much our puppy ate, etc.), and regularly sending text and picture updates. Also, our puppy loves Louise!”
14. Julia W.
“Julia is one of the kindest and smartest women I know AND she LOVES animals. It’s a win win!!! I would trust her with my real babies and definitely my fur babies 😊 Sincerely, Ruth M.”
15. Catherine C.
“Catherine has been the best dog and cat mom to Aubrey and Minina. She has loved those girls for almost 10 years and has given them a warm, happy, and loved home.”
16. Charles D.
“Our dogs and cat were all happy when we came home and we could tell they loved having Charlie over! He’s coming again this weekend and it’s such a relief to know how much they like him!”
17. Lauren T.
“My dog loved having Lauren stay with her for a few days. Remi was relaxed and happy when I got home. Lauren did a great job of communicating and left my place in perfect condition.”
18. Xue Ting L.
“Xue is probably the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. She has dogs of her own and I can say with absolute confidence they must live the most pampered dog lives with how well she’s taken care of my dog”
19. Katrina H.
“Katrina accommodated a last-minute house-sitting request to watch my puppy for an evening so my husband and I could attend a family party. Katrina was quick to respond to my messages when booking and during her stay. She arrived on time and my poodle seemed to have had a good time with her.”
20. Jonathan C.
“Jonathan was very timely and thorough. He took very good care of our dogs and was very responsive. He made our trip better because we had no concerns about our pets! Will reach out again if needed!”
