10/10 would highly recommend booking with Natalie! This was my first time using a sitter for my cat and Natalie made me feel so much more at ease with the care she provided. She was super communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was flexible with my schedule. I'll definitely be booking again with her in the future!

Punctual, professional, and friendly. Our pup (12 weeks) took to Carmen immediately. She always sends updates and pictures after a drop in. I highly recommend Carmen's services!

Abbie is so responsive and my 12 week old puppy, phoebe, took to her immediately. Her patience and experience is such a help in helping phoebe learn her leash manners. She also gives lovely updates and pictures, so helpful when you are away from a little one!

Nathan has watched my cat Leila several times now and I always look forward to his funny entries and I know she’s in good hands while I’m away. I can’t recommend him enough - thank you for taking care of my extremely loud and dramatic cat and giving her love while I’m away 😊

This is the second time I have booked with Heather. She is very communicative and thorough, and always asks if there’s anything else she can do. My cat Aspen loves the play time she gets when Heather visits. I feel much better being out of town knowing that Heather will look out for her.

I am Susan Oliver's sister. Susan is a very kind and loving person and would be absolutely perfect to be a pet caregiver. She is also the most responsible person I know. She would bring these qualities to care for any pet. Growing up we always had a family pet and Susan was very loving and attentive to them. They also always responded to her in a loving way.

Isabella was great checking on my kitties. She even went above and beyond when one of the little rascals knocked a glass off the counter and it broke and she cleaned it up and even carried in a 25lb box that was delivered. She is always my go-to sitter for both my cats and bonding my dog.

Emma has been a great, reliable and responsible dog sitter for us. She is conscientious and attentive and our energetic 2yr old golden doodle loves her! While she is busy, if she is free — we grab her. She goes over and above, texting us if there’s ever a concern (One day she noticed that Bohdi wasn’t eating like usual and let us know. He was fine — but as a pet owner that is helpful.). Highly recommend Emma for your pet care needs.

About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life, including my Millie for 14 years who passed recently. I love each and every dog, and would love the chance to spend some time with yours! I work remotely, Monday - Friday, so I can always be available to care for your pup. I’m able to move about during the day as long as I have my laptop, so walks, park trips, anything you could think of for your dog, I am able to do. I have a large apartment with plenty of space for any size dog, as well as a designated dog park and plenty of outdoor space at my building. If I am sitting at your home, due to my job I do not have to leave and can provide attention to your dog as much as needed.

I'm Jessa's coworker and I have seen her hard-work and loving attitude towards everyone around her. She had two dogs growing up so naturally she's excellent with them. I can ensure that she is a trustworthy dog sitter and will treat the dogs with nothing but love and care.

Since she was young, Valeria has lived her life for dogs. She treats them with the utmost care, and when you see any variety of dogs with her, you know it's just meant to be. I assure you your dog will be loved and cared for in the best of hands. As an added perk, she's good at taking really good pics of dogs and keeping the owner up to date with what's going on. I'm not exaggerating when I say I've never seen a single dog that didn't love Valeria. And she loves them with her whole heart as well. She talks to them, gets to know them. They will be in very capable and attentive hands, and she will communicate with you as much or little as you want. She's very friendly and outgoing--perfect play partner for hyperactive dogs. This wouldn't be a job for her, if you choose Valeria as a dog sitter you and your dog can easily form lifelong bonds with her. You'll see, people that have met her always see their dogs warming up to her fast and know they chose a good one.

I came across Jackie’s profile and thought she’d be a good fit. My hunch was correct. Jackie is easy to communicate with, replies to my messages quickly, is friendly, and took great care of my dog. I hope to keep working with her.
