1. Amber P.

“Could not be any happier with Amber’s care of my fur babies! One of the best features of my trip was her taking such good care of our pets. Not only do my high maintenance Siamese have separate food and medication but they’re also separated in the house and she handled with ease. Very much appreciate the peace of mind she gave me with following our complicated routine, giving detailed visits, and pictures. Incredibly grateful and confident in hiring her again. Thank you SO much Amber!”


2. Meghan C.

“Meghan went above and beyond all my expectations! I was leaving for a trip, and our dog sitter called out sick. Meghan gladly accepted our Bubba at the last minute. She regularly checked in with us, showing where he had walked, how happy he was with his new companion, and, most importantly, that he always had company. She was very communicative and understanding of his needs as an old Bubba American Eskimo.I would highly recommend Meghan to anyone needing a care giver for their furry baby. Thank you so much Meghan you're truly the best!!”

9. IsabellaMaria G.
“Bella took wonderful care of my bunny, June. She paid close attention to all the details of June’s routine, like feeding times and the cleaning of her pen. She has no problem giving updates. I can’t recommend Bella highly enough to anyone looking for a dedicated caretaker. She treated June with all the care and attention I could have hoped for, and it was clear that they took their responsibility seriously. Thank you for taking care of her! You're now my go-to pet sitter.”

Whether it's just for the day or overnight stays, I always know they’re in the best hands. She goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She keeps us updated with messages and pictures, which gives us such peace of mind while we're away. Ellie and Diego adore her, and it's clear she genuinely loves and cares for them like they’re her own. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!”


11. Kate C.
“I met kate through work a few years ago and she offered to watch my two dogs and two cats while my family took a trip. We came back to our perfectly happy, healthy babies and Kate even sent pics whenever we were missing them. Even now, 2 years later, my family and I rely on her to watch over our 2 cats when we are out of the house. Knowing that Kate has dogs and cats of her own that she loves and cherishes puts me at ease when I leave her to pet sit.”

I have known Madison since she was a little girl, and I would say she is a caring soul and a very trustworthy person with a heart of gold . I wouldn’t hesitate to have her again and again as my pet caregiver . She is responsible and mature and I would trust her 100% with my pet and my house .”




14. Lindsay P.

“Lindsay was great! This was the first time I hired a sitter to come and check in on my cats while I was gone. She came over prior to the sitting day to meet my cats and get a feel for what I wanted. She seemed patient, kind and professional. I could tell she has a love for animals. On the day she came over to check in she did everything I requested. I'm very happy with her service and I will book her again next time I need a sitter!”


15. Dylan D.

“I want to shout out Dylan for all his amazing work and loving in my baby Oreo while we were gone. Dylan went above and beyond for us and I truly appreciate him for all his hard work and dedication. He took all my fears away knowing that he had our dog and I am so thankful to have found someone who we can trust. Will definitely be booking another booking with Dylan.”


16. Amie P.

“Did an amazing job!”


17. Miguel R.
“I’ve entrusted my fur baby to Miguel for over a year now. He is good and caring to my Husky. My Husky has a lot of energy and has some health concerns that require him to be on medication. When Miguel dog sits I can go to work or leave to run errands knowing my fur baby will be well cared for, go for a long walk, and be given his medication as needed with no concerns.”


18. Kennedy G.
“Kennedy is extraordinary with pets. As soon as he meets them he bonds with them. Some things I appreciated with my dog; he was one time, he was gentle with collars, harnesses, and leashes, he always checked water too. Kennedy pays attention to weather too and always walked my dog the full time. I have a 130lb dog and a 20lb dog and he managed both of them perfectly. My dog needed medication too and he was very responsible about it. You can’t go wrong here!!”
