1. Aubrey M.
“Aubrey was excellent with our cat Roo. She cared for her as if she were her own. Very gentle and loving. Played with her A LOT and alerted us to a few possible issues. She is very knowledgeable about cat behaviors and habits. She took excellent care of our home as well. Very responsible and personable.”
2. Dave F.
“CoCo and Diego want to thank Dave for taking great care of them, and they definitely want to book him again and again because, he went above and beyond, and gave them lots of hugs. CoCo and Diego gave Dave 5 stars, and highly recommend Dave to all the dog parents, that are getting ready to go on vacation.🐾🐾”
3. Alex B.
“Alex has watched our pups numerous times over the past year. She is a reliable dog/house sitter who gives our two dogs lots of love and attention:) Both of our dogs (15.5 years old and 4 years old) take medication daily; Our older dog has only 3 legs & trouble getting up at times; Our younger dog wears a muzzle when out and about... Alex is on top of all of these things!”
4. Kevin S.
“Kevin was a life saver when it came to finding someone watching our favorite girl. He was very nice, respectful, and responsive throughout our entire trip. He gave us peace of mind knowing while we were gone someone who really cared was watching over our girl. Our girl is also a rescue who gets anxiety and is reactive towards other dogs when going outside and Kevin was able to manage her anxiety meds and taking her out while we were gone no problem. When we got back our apartment even looked in a better condition then we originally left it. He is the perfect person to watch your dogs and we will be defiantly reaching out again when we take our next trip to see if he is available.”
5. Kat M.
“This was my first time leaving my fur baby for a week since I first adopted her. KAT is punctual and keeps lines of communication open. She was clean and cleaned up after herself while she stayed at my house. I got back and my dog was calm and chilled like I had never left!”
6. Abbey H.
“Abbey was so great with our dogs and was a great communicator. She sent pictures and updates while watching our fur babies. Will be using her again!”
7. Joan G.
“Would highly recommend Joan. Very attentive to my babies.”
8. Lauren B.
“Lauren is awesome! I had no worries about the care of Benny and Sox. She's a very capable and calming factor to my 2 high energy kids. She is my go to sitter going forward.”
9. Lana H.
“Lana watched our babies (two Dobies) in our home for ten days. She gave them a lot of quality and play time (and sent pics to keep us updated. Great communication! I know they enjoyed her company and we did not worry about them one bit while in her care. Highly recommend and we will be booking her again soon! Thanks Lana! 😊”
10. Michelle B.
“Wow! How impressed my husband and I were with Michelle’s level of care for not only Bo and Buddy but our house as well. Both Bo and Buddy were happy and healthy on our return home and the house was as we left it. Michelle was house sitting and she washed the towels and sheets and also unloaded the dishwasher!! Above and beyond our expectations. She worked with Bo on crate training and he definitely seems more secure with that process than before we left. We have already booked Michelle for a second stay. Highly recommend!”
11. Lauren & Layla W.
“Lauren and Layla were wonderful! We had complete peace of mind while out of town for two weeks. They sent updates regularly and included pictures of our pups. Our house looked just as it did when we left. Would 100% recommend them to anyone in need of pet sitting!!”
12. Kelsey L.
“Kelsey is great with all my animals. My puppy will pee with joy when he sees her. The cats also love her. If we ever leave the cats for any length of time, they’re very moody when we return. If Kelsey stayed with them, they act like they didn’t even notice we left. Which they probably didn’t, but for sure they’re way less stressed.”
13. Debbie A.
“Debbie was amazing with our two dogs while we were out of town for a little over a week. She is trusting, knowledgeable, and caring. She treated our home and dogs like they were hers. We are beyond grateful to have found her help!”
14. Bree B.
“Bree is a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. She sent lovely photos of our dog, Mazey, who even got to sleep in bed with her. She took great care of our other pet, NMK. We felt at ease knowing our pets were in good hands and didn't worry about a thing. Highly recommended.”
15. Haylee L.
“Haylee was absolutely wonderful with our precious doggies. She sent pictures regularly and it was easy to tell how happy the dogs were. Haylee stayed at the house and gave the dogs a lot of attention and time. She made being away so much easier. Highly recommended!”
16. Logan B.
“Logan was absolutely amazing with our fur kids! Accommodating all of my listed requests, catering to their needs, extra snuggles when the pups were stressed during a storm. THANK YOU LOGAN!”
17. Charlie M.
“Jax and Sapphire were well cared for at home. Charlie made sure to play with them and allowed them to relax outside when the weather allowed. Our dogs were happy and less stressed because Charlie was here in our home to oversee their daily activities. We appreciate the care Charlie gave them.”
18. Anna S.
“Anna was awesome !! She took care of our 4 dogs and our home for 8 days while we were on a trip. She sent multiple updates and pictures of our babies the whole time, and always replied quickly. We also came home to our blankets already washed, which made our night a lot easier after a full day of traveling. Thank you for taking on our crazy household !”
19. Jessica H.
“After a little miss communication at first, the rest of the house sitting went good! Our dogs were taken care of that that’s what we needed!! Thanks again!”
20. Olivia W.
“Olivia has been amazing! We have two dogs and she has always been available to help with them. She is great with animals! She arrives on time and takes care of your fur babies however you request with lots of love included!”
