“Ann took excellent care of my dog, Max! She ensured that he got plenty of playtime, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates daily. She even surprised me by giving him a good bath! She also kept him an extra night when I got stranded at the airport. She certainly has a passion for caring for dogs.”
10. Jennifer B.
“Jennifer was so great! She provided regular updates and best of all great pics of Jessie and her playmates. This was Jessie’s first time from the family members. I was a little concerned at first about how Jessie would react. My fears were quickly erased and I now know Jennifer provides a great atmosphere for Jessie to deal with her separation from her family. I would greatly recommend Jennifer and will use her every time we need a sitter for Jessie! She earned and deserves a five star rating.”
11. Jacqueline H.
“Not only is Jacqueline dependable, but also very kind and patient. She loves animals and people. What she has learned as a registered nurse, she can quickly transfer to animals. She would be the best animal sitter or walker!”
12. Amber B.
“I know that Louie will be cared for when I leave him with Amber. I can tell he feels at home with Amber by the way he warms up to her quickly and how happy he is when I pick him up :)”
13. Casey N.
“Casey is the best!!! She made my pup feel at home while I was out of town, and provided lots of updates throughout his stay. He had an excellent stay and enjoyed playing with other dogs.”
14. Dina J.
“Dina is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Our dog, Coco, warmed up to her immediately during a Meet and Greet! We felt very comfortable leaving her in Dina's capable hands after that. Dina is quick to respond, reliable and genuinely a nice person! We will be taking Coco to her anytime we need a dog sitter.”
15. Laura B.
“This was the first time I had left my five-year-old corgi since adopting him five months ago. Laura gave him all the attention and walks he needed. My only disappointment was that he wasn’t more excited to see me when I got back! He will definitely remember Laura next time.”
16. Lacey G.
“She was great, and very accommodating to drop off and pick up times.”
17. Tania Z.
“Dogs came home happy after a few days spent sleeping on Tania's couches with her dogs and getting some nice long walks. Tania sent photo updates which is always appreciated.”
18. Brian C.
“Brian clearly treated our beagle very well! He gave her plenty of exercise (which she needs), and kept us appraised on how she was doing. A very good caregiver, all in all!”
19. Taylor T.
“I would rate Taylor by far above everyone I know to be the best animal lover/caregiver that I've known. Her natural love and compassion for caring for pets is the kind of satisfaction that nothing else can give her. The knowledge of health and safety is always a first with her followed by all the love she can give. Taylor would be my first choice to look after my little fur baby.”
20. Jordan L.
“Jordan is Fiona’s best sitter so far. She is very communicative and sends lots of cute photos and updates, I didn't even have to ask. I enjoyed my trip to Istanbul knowing Fiona was in safe hands. Also loved seeing Fiona around her family and other dogs. ❤️”
