3. Lauren B.
“Lauren did a fabulous job taking care of our cat and dog while we were out of town. Our dog has an open healing wound as well and she took great care of this; the wound looked better when we returned. We will definitely be using Lauren for future needs and would highly recommend her services.”
4. carolina g.
“Carolina did an amazing job with my puppy! She was punctual, followed my instructions, kept me up to date and sent lots of photos and updates on my little guy. She even left the cutest little Polaroid pics and a note! Definitely would use again and recommend!”
5. jessica k.
“Jessica is fantastic. My rather anxious dog took to her right away. I felt so at ease knowing she was watching my cats and my dog. I have nothing but good things to say about her.”
6. Shykala B.
“Shykala agreed to watch my dog at my home on short notice while I was away for the weekend. She went out of her way to accommodate my schedule in order to do a meet and greet with my dog, who is anxious around new people. While I was away, she sent multiple updates, photos, and maps showing the routes she walked with my dog. When I returned from my trip, my home was just as I had left it and shykala had taken the trouble to strip the bedsheets and take out the trash. I will definitely be asking her to watch my fur baby again!”
7. Dani R.
“Dani was a fabulous dog sitter. She obviously loves animals. We knew Huma the dog was in good hands. It’s hard to leave our furry friends for longer trips. Dani let us know that our pup was happy and had everything she needed including lots of love. She was super quick to respond and kept our house very tidy. I would and will have her doggie sit for Huma again.”
8. Tacy G.
“As usual, amazing support and care from Tacy. Our anxious pupper is rearing to go with Tacy, and the cat, who normally ignores folks at first, runs to greet her when she comes. Our first choice when we go out of town! Thanks again!”
9. Iuliia H.
“We had a great experience with our reactive dog and nervous kitty! Iuliia came over for a meet and greet a few days prior to our trip and I was surprised at how quickly both pets took to her. She took great care of them and our home during her stay and sent us daily updates as requested. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
10. Nicole P.
“Nicole is amazing! We lost one of our cats just days before our trip leaving her sister behind. She was able to add some more days and kept Willow comfortable during a time of grief and stress along with eye drops for her. We are so greatful to have had her as our sitter. I was even under a lot of stress and anxiety but she was absolutely amazing the whole way through. Thank you Nicole!”
11. Gretchen G.
“Gretchen was great with my two little pups! She took them to dog parks and to visit with other pups that she walks during the day...they had lots of exercise and tons of fun! She sent updates and pictures so we knew how they were doing. On top of it she took great care of our place, and even tidied-up before she left. We came home to a clean apartment and happy well-cared for pups!”
12. Tatiana L.
“Tatiana took care of our senior greyhound overnight at our house, and did a fantastic job! She met with us before our trip and was very thorough in going over all of his information. She communicated with us regularly while we were away and reached out to his vet when he had a minor medical issue. She very clearly enjoyed spending time with our dog and gave him lots of love. I would absolutely recommend Tatiana to anyone who was looking for care for their pets!”
13. Linnea K.
“Ro did a wonderful job caring for our dog, Roxie, and cat, Vegetable. Ro was very responsive and communicative and our pets were clearly well cared for while we were out of town. Thank you, Ro! We hope to book with you again soon!”
14. Khadejia N.
“Khadejia was the best sitter for my cats that I could have asked for! She was punctual, communicative, and such a delight to work with, even from the very start at our meet & greet. She immediately engaged with them and I could tell she truly wanted to get to know my cats to provide the best care possible. I love that she kept me updated with photos and I didn't worry once (not even for a second!) while I was away because she always kept me in the loop and I knew my cats were in great hands. I will absolutely request her for all of my future trips!”
15. Sergio H.
“Sergio was a fantastic dog sitter for our 2 pups! He was communicative, nice and left our house spotless! We were so thankful to have him over the Thanksgiving holiday. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter to love on your pets. We would use his services again in a heartbeat.”
16. Amanda P.
“Amanda was so sweet to my Annie and went above and beyond to take care of her when she was being a bit of brat. Amanda also was nice about me being late!”
17. Sarah N.
“Sarah was an excellent sitter. Caring, attentive, kind, and warm. Jo, our very energetic Boston, loved Sarah. When our plans extended, she was very flexible and understanding. Would 100% recommend and will look to use her again next time we are in the area.”
18. Alexandra R.
“Ali was very flexible with handling changing schedules during our trip! Our dog takes a little bit to warm up to new people and she was patient with him and followed all of our care instructions to a T. We would definitely have Ali over to hang with Griffin again!”
19. Gabrielle F.
“Our dogs LOVE Gabby and Gabby is very skilled with medications, seniors, and did fabulously with our anxiety boy. We hadn’t left them with a dog sitter as a group before (haven’t done a lot of traveling in the 1.5 years since we got our now-2 year olds) but Gabby was confident and when she visited to meet the pack they warmed up to her right away. We were very lucky to find her and that she had availability because not everyone is comfortable with giving dogs medications or dogs with anxious behavioral challenges. Her updates were fun to get and I would love to have her dog sit for us again! Thanks!!”
20. Bridget B.
“Would highly recommend. Bridget is easy to communicate with and flexible. She cared for my dog and cat for a week and we came home to happy pets.”
