1. Gabriella L.

“Gabriella is amazing. She was our peace of mind while we were away from our fur-baby. She took great care of her. She played with her and loved on her. She sent us pictures and updates the whole time we were gone. She was also very quick to respond to messages. When we take our next trip, we will DEFINITELY be hiring Gabriella!!!”


2. Taryn T.

“Taryn is wonderful. We will definitely hire her again. She’s very pleasant and great with our pets. They warmed to her immediately. She’s a problem solver (we had a minor plumbing issue which she solved on her own but contacted us). She stays in touch just enough so we know all is well but not so much that we can’t enjoy our time away. She went above and beyond. Excellent pet and house sitter!”


3. Erin S.

“Erin is wonderful! She house and dog sat for two weeks. Trustworthy and loving to our two dogs and send photos of them every day. Outstanding communicator. Will use again and again!”


4. Ezra D.


“Ezra was absolutely wonderful! I came back to a very happy kitten. I got lots of updates through text and photos which I really appreciated. I really liked that Ezra listened to all my instructions and followed them thoroughly. I was very nervous about leaving my kitten and Ezra definitely help alleviate all those worries. I will absolutely rebook with them :)”


5. Jada H.
“I highly recommend Jada as a pet sitter! She has helped me care for many foster animals over the years, including senior pets and those needing special attention, such as administering medication. Her love for animals is evident in everything she does, and she has a natural ability to connect with them. She’s reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about their well-being. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, she ensures every pet feels loved and cared for. Your furry friends will be in great hands with her!”


6. Caitlin M.

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Caitlin! My pup hurt her leg before our trip and Caitlin was super flexible and helpful. She kept me updated each day! We feel lucky to have found Caitlin and will definitely be asking her to watch Luna again!!”


7. Kami K.

“Went on a weekend getaway and Kami was so great with our girl. We have a newish adopted doggy who is reactive and Kami was so kind and patient with her. We will definitely rebook!”


8. Olivia N.

“Amazing caretaker. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were taken care of. My dog had a cough and she took him to the vet and kept me updated every step of the way. Would recommend her to any pet owner!”


9. Ashlyn Z.

“Over the weekend, Ashlyn took excellent care of our three-legged pup, Bill. She provided regular updates and left our home in great condition. It was comforting to know our senior dog was at ease in his own environment!”


10. Ellie V.

“Ellie did an amazing job looking after our pup and house while we were away. She sent pictures or videos each day of things Willy was doing and places they were walking. When we arrived back home, everything was clean and tidy in our house. Looking forward to having Ellie here again!”


11. Stephanie W.

“Stephanie is amazing! My pup is anxious and requires someone who respects her needs and boundaries. I appreciate Stephanie’s dependability and trustworthiness with my high maintenance pup - she genuinely cares that Pepper gets love and care while I’m gone.”


12. Bree M.

“Bree was awesome! She sent pictures of Abbey while we were away. Came home to a well taken care of home! I would highly recommend Bree! It was our first time leaving our pet and home to someone! But loved it! Abbey was happy and our home was taken care of. Bree was so respectful of our home!”

15. Joshua R.


“Josh was great with our 2 French bulldogs and great with our home. He was communicative and our boys enjoyed their time with him! Highly recommend.”


16. Kayla H.

“Kayla is THE BEST! She takes care of our pets like they’re her own, communicates phenomenally, and goes above and beyond. Our dog adores her, but the highest praise is that our cat, who has never come out from her hiding place for a stranger, LOVES KAYLA! Earning a nervous cat’s trust tells you everything you need to know!”

18. Ellis L.

This was my first time ever having someone spend the night with the dogs and she did amazing. Would book with her again !”
