We have had Ben care for Stella a number of times now. He is really communicative and does a great job taking care of our place in addition to the cat. Our cat loved him right off the bat (she’s a sweet cat, but also wary). He’s professional, on time. Won’t hesitate to book him again.

Had a great experience with Tammy, who provided in-home dog-sitting for our two dogs while we were away for a couple of weeks. She was kind, professional, communicative, and took very good care of the fur babies. We returned to a tidy house and a couple of happy, healthy doggos. Will definitely ask her to sit for us again, and would recommend her to others!

Kelly is amazing! Jaxx had a sensitive belly the week before she watch him, so I was a nervous wreck. He was fine while she was watching him, but she had great communication as usual and sent several pics which I always enjoy. She always puts my mind at ease, so I can enjoy my time out of town and know he's being taken care of.

About: I have done occasional pet sitting since I was in high school. I have two cats of my own that I absolutely adore. I would love to cuddle and take care of your kitties! I work 8-4 during the week, but I typically have an hour or so to step away and visit your pets. I also have an open schedule on the weekends. Having two cats myself, I understand that animals need time to adjust to a new person. I usually let the animals come to me when they feel safe and ready.

Kathleen was an excellent sitter for Ivy and Elsie. She followed our instructions carefully, and was unbothered by Elsie's special needs (delayed potty training from UTIs in her puppyhood). Not only is Elsie still developing her bladder control and more likely to have accidents, she also needs wiped with medicated wipes after every potty. Kathleen was sure to do this and she also provided regular updates with photos throughout the day/evening. Both girls had a great time and we'll be sure to hire Kathleen in the future!

Joanna has watched both my dog and cat multiple times, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. I travel frequently for work, often with last-minute trips, and she has always been incredibly accommodating and flexible with scheduling. She does a fantastic job keeping me updated while I’m away, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious how much she cares about animals because both of my pets absolutely adore her. They even wait by the door around the times she normally arrives

Sammy was absolutely fantastic as a dog sitter! From the moment she met our dog, Scotch, it was clear there was an instant connection. Her sweet, caring nature made him feel comfortable right away, and it was obvious from the frequent updates she shared that they were having a great time together. Throughout the stay, Sammy was attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. She provided regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us complete peace of mind knowing Scotch was happy, safe, and well cared for. As an added bonus, she takes incredible dog photos! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sammy has absolutely earned her spot as our go-to sitter, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pet.

We cannot say enough great things about Madelyn. She was incredibly responsive throughout the booking and coordination process and did an outstanding job caring for Stevie and our home while we were away. She provided consistent updates all weekend, and it was clear Stevie was happy and well cared for. Madelyn was attentive, followed all of our instructions, and treated our home with exceptional care. She went above and beyond — laundry, trash, cleaning, etc. We would absolutely book with Madelyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and reliable sitter!

Marty stayed overnight with our dog, Maisy, and he was great. Very communicative and responsible; we came home to an everything just as we left it. Maisy clearly had a great weekend - she was cuddly and tuckered out from all the walks and play time when we got home. Would highly recommend Marty!

Duncan was awesome! He watched our 70lb lab for 10 days and sent frequent updates and photos. In the photos I could tell that our dog was happy and comfortable. He was very responsive leading up to and during the visit, and also made the time to meet us in person before the visit so he could get to know our dog. When we returned from our trip or Apartment was spotless, and he even washed our sheets for us, which was an unexpected gesture and very much appreciated after a long drive. We will 100% book him again in the future.
