Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.

I was very nervous to leave my dogs, especially the one who was so scared. She was so nervous she would not eat. Paige worked with her and finally got her to eat. I appreciate her watching over them and taking good care of them.

Julie watched our two dogs for over a week and was great. She was extremely communicative about every detail - which we especially appreciated for the first couple of days as we adjusted to being away from the dogs. She sent photos, which we loved as well. She was a very courteous house guest, and reached out with questions when necessary. When our return home was delayed, she was flexible and helpful - even though it was Christmas Eve! We returned to a house that was much cleaner than we’d left it and happy dogs. Julie made it clear that her goal is to maintain the dogs’ routine so they’re comfortable, and that was exactly what we were looking for. That, combined with having the house so well looked after, gave us peace of mind while being away. We’d definitely recommend Julie!

Taylor was fantastic! She did a great job checking in with me and letting me know how things were going. My dog gets pretty sad when I’m gone but she did everything she could to make sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. Also my house was so clean when I got home, she’s definitely a great sitter to consider watching your dog.

Beth was such a relief after a few negative experiences with dog sitters at our home. She was extremely communicative the whole time during our vacation, took excellent care of (and loved) our Nellie, and ultimately helped us have a stress-free trip out of state. We SO appreciated her kind and warm attitude and would love to book her again!
