1. John R.
“I have watched John take care of two family dogs in a loving and responsible way for over seven years, and I think he would be a wonderful dog caregiver. He clearly loves and relates to dogs in a special way. He has experience with all aspects of pet care, including feeding, cleaning, and exercising. He is patient and attentive. He loves to take dogs for walks, and can go either long or short distances. John is very smart, and would quickly pick up any instructions. He is also very clean and careful. I would highly recommend him.”
2. August S.
“August was a wonderful caregiver to our 2 mid-sized labrador mix dogs, one 12yrs, one 6yrs. August slept in our home during our family's wk long vacation. They provided several walks a day, fed, medicated and supported a relaxing, consistent environment for our beloved pups. Our older dog required medical support while in Augusts' care. August maintained conversation, with health updates with our veterinarian and myself which allowed me peace of mind while we were traveling. August was able to set up and manage playdates and excursions with our friends for our 2 pups. August left our home and our pups in perfect shape and I was very grateful for their presence. I highly recommend August and will absolutely use them again.”

“Joey watches my dog very often when I am working overnights and out of town! Louie loves when he comes over and when I say “Joey is watching him”. He is always very tired because they played so hard and always has enough food and water. Definitely recommend joey to watch your pet…treats them like his own!”

“Darian was amazing, all we could hope for and more in a pet/house sitter! She was a somewhat last minute find but she was great to work with and we are so glad we found her! We would totally book her again as it’s clear she took great care of our boys and was a great communicator! Always appreciate that.”

“Taryn did a great job house sitting and watching our babies! She sent lots of pictures and made sure to do everything we instructed. Our older dog needs a little extra help with eating and getting around, she was great to give the extra care. We were very impressed and will certainly use her services again in the future!”
10. Jacob M.
“Jacob was a pit sitter for our dog Myth many times. Myth is a friendly chocolate lab, who was about 3 years old when Jacob looked after him. Myth got all the attention he needed! We felt very good leaving Myth in Jacob's care from regular feedings, walks, and playtime. We also appreciated Jacob's attention to other details (like taking out our garbage on garbage day!), and was very easy to communicate with. We recommend him highly.”
11. Kenny I.
“I highly recommend Kenny! He was so loving and attentive towards my dog, Benson. I get nervous leaving my dog with just anyone and Kenny was amazing. He kept me updated and my dog was always safe and happy. Every time Kenny has watched and walked Benson, he couldn’t wait to run up to Kenny’s door, wagging his tail and ready to give kisses! 10/10!!!”
