1. Heather B.

“Heather walks my dog on the days I work, and she is incredibly reliable, so communicative and very quickly responsive. My dog loves her too, and I always appreciate the pictures she’s sends on their walks. Recently, we went out of town for the weekend, and Heather house sat. She sent multiple updates and pictures a day, which was so appreciated, and was just as communicative and reliable as always! I felt so secure leaving my guy and home knowing Heather would be there to take care of home. Thank you again!!”

“Lex was an excellent In-house sitter for our 4 pets while we were away for Christmas Holiday.She lovingly cared for our 2 little 10 yr old dogs and 2 cats that had never been apart from us .She sent updated pics and messages. She made 2 meet and greets prior to our scheduled booking just so the pets could get used to her.She left the house spotless! If it wasn’t for Lex, we could never had gone away for the Holiday. Our dogs are paper trained only and Lex kept up with that meticulously and cleaned the litter box regularly. We would highly recommend Lex to anyone needing a loving and nurturing pet sitter. She is very trust worthy to let stay in your home.Lex will be our go-to pet sitter again for sure!!”


7. Rachel Z.

“Rachel was wonderful! She stayed with our 3 cats for 4 days and they were all very happy to have her. She was prompt when messaging and shared photos of the cats throughout her stay. We have a few special needs kitties, one of which is very shy. Our shy kitty doesn't warm up very quickly to strangers and even she took to Rachel within the first 24 hours. Her warmth and care made all the difference for them. We'll definitely have Rachel back the next time we need someone to stay. Thank you so so much!”

“Shane was great. From the minute my dogs and I met him we all felt comfortable with him. My two dogs have completely different personalities and Shane realized it immediately- putting my defensive husky at ease and making my nervous bulldog mix comfortable. Shane communicated with me regularly and sent plenty of pics of the pups. When we got home, everything was as was left and the pups were happy.”
