Em did an amazing job taking care of my Frenchie and kitty over the holidays. She looked after them for over 10 days in my home and sent consistent photos and status updates. When I returned home, my house was exactly how I left it, and she went above and beyond by washing the towels and bed linens she used. Most importantly my fur babies were happy and healthy and didn’t seem to miss me much 🥲

Maureen house sat and cared for our 10.5 year old dog, Ellie, for five days. She kept us very well informed with cute pictures and descriptions of activities. Ellie loved Maureen, and vice-versa. We will call on her again and again. She also kept the house clean and did not burden us with chores after she left. Highest praise and recommendation.

About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.

Maya was great! We reached out to her two days before we left on our trip when another sitter cancelled on us due to a family emergency. Maya stepped in and saved our trip! She even made time to come meet our dog ahead of time that same day. She took great care of our dog and house and sent lots of updates.

Bri was so easy to work with! She was communicative, reliable, and our pets absolutely adored her. We were able to enjoy our vacation because we felt so comfortable with her taking care of things for us. Our pets have never been less stressed out while we were away; they were immediately comfortable with her which says a lot (small neurotic dog and finicky cat). We're so thrilled to have found her.

We are so thankful for Shel. Our girl Pickles is very timid and anxious with meeting new people and Shel handled her with patience and unbelievable care. She was kind and did extra meet and greets prior to our trip to make sure Pickles was comfortable with her. While we were gone we received many updates and she continued our training program. Our home and pets were well cared for and everyone would be so lucky to have Shel watch their fur children.

Phoebe had excellent communication and reliability. She asked great clarifying questions before and during her stay. We loved getting her photos and updates while she was house and dog sitting for us! I am confident Francis and Luca and the fish were in good hands while we were away! We’d love to book Phoebe again in the future!

A superstar! Tiffanie was amazing in every aspect of caring for our family pet during our weeklong vacation in Europe. She sent lots of photos and updates. Our pet is so playful and wants us to toss his toys way more to a before we left - our dog whispered that he wants to see Tiffanie soon! It was a relief to be away and know that he was being taken care of by a caring and adult pet sitter!

Haley was absolutely incredible!! She stayed in our home to care for our two dogs and transient cat while we were on vacation. She was extremely communicative, caring, proactive in her approach, trustworthy, and super easy to talk to. She went above and beyond, especially when our flights were delayed and we needed an extra night of care last minute. We are fairly anxious pet parents, but she calmed our nerves immediately. We highly recommend and love Haley!!
