1. Grace O.
“Everything about the experience with Grace was great. She made time for a meet and great prior to us leaving. She communicated well and sent pictures and videos. We felt so comfortable having her in our home knowing she would take good care of our puppies. She gave them exercise, play time and lots of attention. This was our first time doing this and Grace was a perfect choice.”
2. Carlos V.
“Carlos is a phenomenal person! He’s attentive, patience and alert. I wouldn’t trust any other person with my dog, he’s spent many nights with dog. If you want good care, Carlos is your guy!”
3. Nick G.
“Nick is a wonderful, responsible caregiver! He always stays with my dog when I’m out of town, and she loves him. I never have to worry since I know my pup is in good hands. Nick is the best!”
4. Michelle P.
“Michele did a very nice job. She was punctual and polite and kept me informed with texts and pictures the whole time she was sitting with our dogs.”
5. Nadine B.
“Nadine was wonderful with Oreo and Henry. She was very attentive, communicative and provided safety and care to our pets when we were away. Would definitely use her again on the future.”
6. Linda M.
“Linda was amazing! She helped us out last minute when we couldn’t find anyone else. The dogs really liked her and she was great with them. She updated us with photos and you could tell the dogs were happy. She followed all instructions that we left her and we couldn’t be happier. I will definitely use her in the future and recommend her.”
7. Ava S.
“Ava was amazing with teddy & louie. She kept in contact with me the entire time, sent pics of them all cuddling. When I arrived home the house was the same way I left it nice and clean. My boys are a hand full and she did amazing with them. We are definitely using Ava S again. Teddy & Louie looked well taken care of from walks and treats and love. Thanks again Ava”
8. Samantha W.
“Samantha watched my 12-year-old golden doodle a couple of months ago when I was out of town for a week. She took really good care of my dog and he was happy as could be when I picked him up. She sent me pictures of him every day and nothing ever went wrong. She also took him on 2-3 walks a day. I would definitely let Samantha watch my dog again.”
9. Kelly T.
“Kelly is a caring person who has taken on a tough responsibility. I think someone who fosters a dog is taking on a task that is tougher than adopting a dog..... especially someone who cares like Kelly does. I know I couldn't do it. But she knows she is giving them a better life and is willing to be heartbroken when they get adopted so they can find their forever home and family. That's a giver! I strongly support Kelly and know from working with her she is a good person that wants to help. Dogs in this world need more Kellys.”
10. Ginia D.
“First time booking with Ginia! Wonderful! House sitting for our two dogs and cat, she made everything easy. From our meet and greet to coming home we felt her genuine warmth and care. Excellent communication, lots of cuddle puddle feedback and extra touches that made us feel like family. We’re so lucky to have found here🐶🐶😻💕”

12. Victoria M.
“Your pets are in the best hands with Victoria! She is adorable & was so loving to my puppy, she continuously communicated during the sitting & gave a very thorough recap at the end of her shift. Highly recommend!”
13. Rose R.
“Rose did an amazing job sitting for my two dogs, Noodle and Boba! Thank you so much for spending quality time with them while I was away. She sent plenty of photos and videos, asked questions about their schedules and habits, and I could tell from it all that my pups had a great time and were safe and healthy with Rose. I will definitely be reaching out to Rose whenever I need a sitter. Thank you!”
14. Katie M.
“Katie is without a doubt the most caring and kind person I know. I’ve known her for a few years and she has always cared for and loved all animals, and people ofcourse. She has a dog of her own and has had more in the past. She takes great care of him and he couldn’t be happier with her. She treats him beyond well and she will always do her best to care for others.”
15. Lisa B.
“Lisa is a dedicated and conscientious pet sitter. She goes above and beyond to give quality care to my two dogs. I trust her to walk and care for my pets when I'm on vacation. My dogs absolutely adore her. I can't say enough good things about Lisa. I highly recommend using her services.”
16. RIcky P.
“He is a great dog lover. Loves cats and dogs. Was a vet for many years and dealt with all kinds of breeds. Big to small to medium.”
17. Patricia O.
About: I have grown up around dogs all my life. I worked at an animal hospital for about 5 years and always had a genuine love for animals. Your pet will be treated as a member of my own family. I work during the week but I am available to take care of your pet in the evening or early morning. I also am available on the weekends so you can enjoy time away knowing your pet is not alone. I will come to your pets comfort zone and ensure they are not thrown off schedule even when you are away. This would help them feel less stressed and not have to adapt to a new environment, which can be scary for anyone.
18. Nathalia M.
“Nathalia is amazing! I could tell when she met my pet family that she was warm and loving with them. See is very responsible, followed directions perfectly(we had a pup on meds) and made us feel comfortable leaving our pets at home without us. (We are nervous leaving them) She is a great communicator and sent us pictures and always answered our annoying “checking in”texts! Lol She kept the house cleaner then we left it and was very respectful with our home. I would highly recommend Nathalia and we will definitely be using her again in the future! Btw…we have to big crazy dogs, a Yellow Lab & and an English Cream Golden that are under 2 yo. They are a handful and she was awesome with them. Also 2 cats, that took to her immediately!”
19. Giovanna B.
“Giovanna was so awesome. I had to leave my almost 4 month old puppy for the first time along with my 4yo dog and she completely put me at ease for the first time we met. My puppy was even scratching at the door after she left. Can’t wait till I get to use her again!”
20. Annabelle L.
“Annie did a great job taking care of our boy. She is a very caring person and was wonderful with our baby and keeping us updated with pics and reports on how he was doing. Highly recommend!”
