1. jessica k.

“Jessica was great! She took great care of our two dogs and communicated multiple times a day to let us know how things were going. We would definitely love to have her watch our dogs again!”


2. Samantha W.

“Samantha was terrific with my quirky dog. She learned his vibes and personality quickly and worked well with him. She kept me informed, cleaned up after herself, and I would absolutely hire her again.”


3. Iuliia H.

“Iuliia was great! Our two dogs were completely comfortable within moments of meeting her. They were very well looked after and I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing they were having a great time!”


4. Lauren B.

“Lauren did a fabulous job taking care of our cat and dog while we were out of town. Our dog has an open healing wound as well and she took great care of this; the wound looked better when we returned. We will definitely be using Lauren for future needs and would highly recommend her services.”


5. Shykala B.

“Shykala agreed to watch my dog at my home on short notice while I was away for the weekend. She went out of her way to accommodate my schedule in order to do a meet and greet with my dog, who is anxious around new people. While I was away, she sent multiple updates, photos, and maps showing the routes she walked with my dog. When I returned from my trip, my home was just as I had left it and shykala had taken the trouble to strip the bedsheets and take out the trash. I will definitely be asking her to watch my fur baby again!”


6. Tracy P.

“Tracy came through clutch for us when plans with another sitter fell through. She made sure to spend some quality time with all of our kitties - a challenge in its own right with these three lunatics! She sent us regular picture updates, some of which made clear that our more affectionate kitties warmed right up to her. I would gladly hire Tracy again to watch my little tyrants on my next weekend vacation. You probably should, too.”


7. Annie S.


“Annie was incredible. Would highly recommend and happily have her back! She watched my toy poodle all weekend and was very communicative, sent lots of photos, and kept the place spotless. She is a perfect sitter and is fabulous with dogs!!”


8. Bria M.

“Bria did an amazing job house sitting and looking after my two cats. I came home and could tell they were given a lot of attention and well cared for. She was super responsive with updates and pictures and left the house in great shape!”


9. Tatiana L.

“Tatiana took care of our senior greyhound overnight at our house, and did a fantastic job! She met with us before our trip and was very thorough in going over all of his information. She communicated with us regularly while we were away and reached out to his vet when he had a minor medical issue. She very clearly enjoyed spending time with our dog and gave him lots of love. I would absolutely recommend Tatiana to anyone who was looking for care for their pets!”


10. Jill T.

“Jill is amazing! She came in to help with a dog sitting need and at the last minute it all changed. She literally went from meet and greet mode- straight into overnight, house sitting mode! Despite all the chaos, her confidence and wonderful, easy going temperament put us all at ease. Even our pup, normally skittish, seemed to just melt in Jill's arms. Such a relief and we are so very grateful. 1001% will be booking Jill again, if she'll take us! :-)”


11. Rachel E.

“Rachel was absolutely wonderful when looking after our dog! She was so thorough with instructions for dog sitting and always kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. My dog can get anxious when we are away but she absolutely loved having Rachel around! 10/10 would recommend to anyone.”


12. Taylor D.

“Taylor took great care if both my dog and cat while we were away for a week. The house was just as we left it when we came back and we received regular plenty of updates about how they were doing / pictures. The overall communication was super easy! I will definitely ask Taylor to watch my pets again whenever I have a future trip out of town”

15. Marykay B.
“Marykay was wonderful in every way. All of our pets adored her and she took great care of them and our home. She was so helpful when we had a travel nightmare and we knew our pets were safe and loved. She even had food for us to have when we got back after traveling 20+ hours. Would recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you, Marykay!!”


16. Luke L.

“Luke was an absolute rockstar sitter for our active dog. He was a great communicator - providing pictures and videos of our dog having a great time while we were away. We’ll definitely book again!!!”


17. Laura F.

“Took great care of our pups and sent us the walks she did every day. Even made us dog treats to give to the dogs. Very trustworthy and would work with her again!”


18. Konnor T.

“Konnor was great. He came over for a meet and greet with our dogs before he watched them. While we were gone he kept us updated and sent pictures. We will definitely call Konnor again.”


19. Ava S.

“Ava was wonderful! She stayed at our home taking care of our dog Sunny and cat Eggs. Our pup is shy and lacks confidence, and getting him to trust new people isn’t easy. This was his first time being away from us, so we were nervous too! Ava sent us updates and photos each day, which was really nice. We came home to a happy dog and relaxed home. Thanks Ava!!”


20. Grace C.

“Grace was so easy to work with, and took great care of Ginger. I was so impressed when she arrived for the initial meet and greet prepared to jot down some notes. Her stay with Ginger seemed to go well, and she even left me a summary of her stay when I came home. I will absolutely seek her out next time I need a sitter.”
