“Jessica helped care for my pack over an extended weekend & took amazing care of the whole crew and the house too! I can't say enough wonderful things, I felt easy being away and knew the animals were getting the best care! Thank you again Jessica for everything!!”


“Chelsea was an absolutely wonderful sitter to our dog and three cats! Our dog is anxious and reactive and from our meet and greet to the actual day of sitting, Chelsea respected his space, followed all of our instructions, and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She also was great with our cats that all warmed up to her so quickly. We are so grateful to Chelsea for the updates she gave us, as we were actually able to enjoy our weekend knowing our pets were in good hands. Will definitely be hiring Chelsea in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”


“Natalie could not have been more perfect. She came to our home to meet us and our dog and we liked her immediately. So did our dog. On the day that she was scheduled to stay with our dog, she arrived on time and showed genuine concern for our home and our dog. She was very attentive to our dog and his routines and habits. She sent us numerous photos of our happy boy throughout the weekend. Natalie left the house as neat as she found it and while our dog was happy to see us, he was very affectionate towards Natalie as well. Our neighbors thought she was terrific when they met her out on walks with our dog. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”


“We happily had Laurie spend a long weekend with our 2 dogs at our house and everything was great! She sent lots of photos of the dogs and they seemed very much like they enjoyed themselves. She even got my picky dog to eat. Respectful with the house and we returned to happy dogs and a clean house.”


“Natasha has done pet sitting for our 4 cats twice now, and we’ve scheduled for her to house sit again for us soon. Two of our kitties are 18, and they each need oral medication. And, we keep them separate from the 2 young cats at nighttime to ensure the older ones get their food. House sitting has worked well for this, and so has Natasha. She sends a daily update and is good about asking if she needs anything. The litter boxes picked we we arrived at home, trash was taken out, plants watered and in good shape. I feel comfortable knowing Natasha is taking good care of the cats and the house while we’re away.”


“Micah was awesome! He got along great with our Ruby and Lily. He asked all the right questions. When we were away and he wasn’t sure of something, he asked. He was a trooper with our Ruby who is afraid of bad weather and he handled it awesomely. He picked up after himself and left the house in great condition. Highly recommend!”

“Sara did a phenomenal job house sitting and taking care of my pup. She was always responsive and sent updates with pictures. After her stay, she had some great suggestions which I will use in the future. I will use Sara again and cannot recommend her enough.”


“Delilah went above and beyond to take care of our pups. Courteous care with prompt communication throughout our time away. Would highly recommend her to all dog parents for in home care.”


“Absolutely loved Kerri! She did an amazing job with our two pups. Showed so much love. And always made sure she sent pics! She took amazing care of our pups and home. Def consider her part of our family! Thanks again!”
