Ratings and reviews
Branden is the best dog and house sitter. He left the house clean and Lucy happy and well taken care of. Thanks, Branden, we look forward to using you again.
Branden was such a great communicator! Sent many pictures and updates while staying with our dogs and cat. Lots of great communication leading up to the visit also which is always appreciated in a new situation. Would work with Branden again for sure!
Brandon was great! He was able to fit us in with pretty short notice, and took wonderful care of our pets. We received multiple picture updates and our pup got a couple of walks, which was more than expected. We have a full yard and we were only gone 24 hours. So I’d say he went above and beyond. We are looking forward to working with Brandon again.
My pets immediately took to Branden and I had nothing to worry about. He spoiled my dog and was very responsive. I almost want to leave a bad review so he's more available!
Took good care of my girl
Branden was an amazing dogsitter for our two dogs, Luna and Astro, during a 4-night trip. He went above and beyond our expectations! At our initial meetup, the dogs were immediately at ease around Branden, even though Astro is typically very anxious around new people (especially men). On every day of our trip, Branden sent us updates/photos of the dogs. It was clear they were having a great time, getting to spend much of the day outside in the yard, playing fetch and soaking up the sun. Because of Astro’s leash aggression, we told Branden that he did not have to take them on walks, but he was still able to do several walks/runs in spite of this. Both we and the dogs appreciated the extra exercise! Overall our experience with Branden was wonderful, and we hope to use his services again in the future!
