“Hired for house sitting. She kept me well informed (with pictures) and cared for my reactive pup with no judgement. I am a repeat customer, grateful to have my pup looked after by Han,”


“Karachi did a great job taking care of our dog, Charlie. She was very communicative, accommodated our schedule, and was diligent in giving Charlie his medicine. Charlie really liked her!”


“We were extremely impressed with Summar’s care for our pets- 2 dogs and a cat- for 2 weeks. M She kept us informed on a daily basis, allowing us to enjoy our vacation without any concerns. She handled a couple of unexpected events with great professionalism- she really is a pro. And a warm and caring person with great pet sense- our normally standoffish cat warmed up to her immediately. Summar is 5 star plus in our book.”



“Norman was absolutely fantastic!! He sent so many photos and videos, as well as keeping me constantly updated with time stamps! My dog can be a little difficult sometimes because she likes to eat things but he handled it like a pro and made me feel so relieved that she was doing good! Definitely one of the best sitters I’ve had!”


“Matt did a great job taking care of my elderly dog. Was friendly and communicative. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


“Christina is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is kind, warm, responsible, a fantastic communicator… the list goes on. My family was away for a week from our elderly sick pup and our newer pup and she not only handled it well - she probably did better than we do! We will use her again and hope to see her again just because she’s that great!”

“Second time having Kylee in our home to sit for our pup and it went really well! Our dog was completely relaxed with her, and she’s usually anxious when we’re gone. Two thumbs up!”


“Sjoribel was a great sitter for Yoshi! She was super communicative, sent a bunch of pictures, and the house looked great when I got home. 10/10 would recommend for dogsitting!”


“Raakhee was a wonderful sitter! Not only did she take great care of our dog Reesey, but she was an excellent houseguest. Great communication throughout the visit with thoughtful pictures and videos. I felt at ease knowing that our dog was in such great hands. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“We owe so much to Chantal! She took great care of our home and our senior dog. Communication was fantastic the entire time and we appreciated all the pictures and updates! Highly recommend her to anyone!”


“Daniel was great! Short notice availability. He was very accommodating with some minor last minute requests, and also when our relatives had to drop by a few times. Consistently sent (VERY adorable!) photos with a brief note/comment every day while we were on vacation. Was good about being communicative and responding to any questions as needed. House was left pretty clean when we came back. Highly recommend!!”


“Look no further and hire Lisa! I am so thankful I found Lisa. I HIGHLY recommend her services, and I will be using her as my pet sitter again in the future. She is the most caring, kind person I have ever met. recommend hate leaving my two young cats because they are so obsessed with people I was worried they wouldn’t get enough attention. Lisa set all of my fears and worries aside. She sent me multiple pictures and videos of my cats daily and made sure they were given plenty of love and attention. Lisa left my house in PRISTINE condition, I was shocked by how nice the house looked! Lisa answers texts extremely fast and always validated my feelings of missing the cats. I can’t express enough how amazing Lisa was with my two babies. I will be hiring her again in the future! If you are looking for a valuable, loving, trusting person to watch your pets look no further. I can not thank her enough for her care and kindness. I am so thankful for a bonus family member. The cats definitely miss her dearly, they’ve been meowing at me wondering when she is coming back. Thank you so much Lisa. You are truly a gem.”

We really appreciated that Korrey was so communicative with issues and questions. We came home to a happy dog and a pristine house, so we'd gladly work with Korrey again!”


“Adam did a great job watching Woodstock! He communicated well with us for the entire duration of his booking. He made a trip back in the middle of the day to walk Woodstock at lunchtime. She seemed very happy to have Adam as her caretaker.”


“Sjocelin did a great job with our dogs!”


“It takes a patient and calm person to patiently befriend and gain the trust of our dog. Sharon was great and adaptable and was also so great about keeping us updated on things while we were away. She also left a very sweet card and photos for us.”


“Jackson took great care of my high energy Blue Heeler and home - I will definitely request his help again!”
