“Daniel is fantastic! Our dogs had an amazing time with him. He kept us up to date and sent us photos every day! He was able to get our dog’s trust from day one and make them feel okay while we were away. Our flight was delayed by about 10 hours and he stayed with our dogs extra time to make sure they were able to eat dinner and be taken out one more time before we got home. I will definitely reach out to him again in the future.”
“Claudia got along great with Skye. The dog was happy and the house in order when we got home. Claudia was on time and sent us updates with pictures. Her care met and exceded our expectations. We look forward to having Claudia back again. Thank you Claudia!”
“Chris did a great job with Bingo! He was responsible. He kept us informed about how Bingo was doing over the five days, showing us pictures of Bingo. He walked Bingo in various places in Ithaca. Chris kept the house neat. He just did everything right.”
“Shannon took excellent care of our home and animals while we were away. From our first contact, they responded quickly and communicated clearly, and asked great questions to get to know our animals and routines. When they came out to the house to get oriented, it was immediately clear how much Shannon loves animals. While we were gone, they sent us lots of photos and updates, and took everything about our quirky home and the wintry weather in stride. When we got back, our dogs and cats were relaxed and happy, our chickens were safe in the coop, and our house was tidy. We will absolutely book with Shannon again! Thank you!”
“Riya was great- we definitely recommend her for anyone who wants to feel comfortable leaving their animals when they have to leave. She was great at keeping us updated, asking questions, and paying really close attention to the health and happiness of both our cat and dog! We will for sure be coming back to ask her to watch them in the future because she is very dependable and trustworthy.”
“Linnea did an overnight stay at our house and took care of our two dogs. She was great with our dogs, attentive to various details of their care, and very organized and responsive. We enjoyed her text updates and photos of our dogs relaxing at home. I would highly recommend Linnea!”
“Rachel was fabulous to work with. Responsive, diligent and was lovely with our kittens, Frankie and Olive. She even left us 2 hard copy photos and a sweet note for our return. We won’t hesitate to book Rachel again.”

“We loved having Claudia stay and watch our dogs again! They clearly adore being around her. She sent lots of wonderful photo updates, kept the house spotless, and even took them on a hike. We’re so grateful to have her and can’t recommend her enough. Thanks again, Claudia!”

Riya was awesome. She took great care of our two senior dogs and was great at troubleshooting some issues they had the first few nights. She was great about sending us pictures and keeping us up to date. Her dog got along great with ours as well! Would highly recommend her!
Claudia is the absolute best! She really gets our dog and you can tell how much she loves and cares for her. She’s a great house sitter too and we really appreciated her putting up with and letting us know about some house issues that arose while we were away. Our dog never seems stressed and clearly enjoys her company. She’s also hardcore walking her in even the gross weather!
Rachel has been absolutely fabulous caring for our dogs. She provided communication every step of the way and made our dogs so comfortable. We are so appreciative for her care and can't wait to work with her again ☺️ the boys adore you! We are so grateful and cannot recommend Rachel enough!
Rachel was excellent! We booked her for house sitting two dogs. After a couple of rough rover experiences, Rachel was exactly what we needed. Even at the meet a greet we had good vibes. She asked lots of questions and was clearly committed to understanding our dogs’ needs. She was very responsible and responsive and took care of our dogs’ needs (pill medication, wipes) with ease. She left our house in mint condition and we came home to dogs that were happy and healthy. Highly recommend Rachel for house sitting any dogs.
We were very happy and grateful to Ruby for caring for our pup Rosie. Ruby was responsible, sweet, and prompt with all communication. Most importantly, Rosie was happy and well cared for. As a plus, you would never know anyone was ever in our house, she left it so nice. We would definitely use Ruby again.
Wenting was fabulous--like SuperNanny but for pets! From first contact she was a consummate professional. Besides demonstrating such genuine and deep love for Miss Tilly, she was so organized (e.g., proactively asking for a release form for the vet hospital). And her daily reports were detailed and informative. She took fantastic care of our dog and our house while we were away (vacuuming her bedroom before she left!). I'd hire her again any time!
