Fantastic! One of our dogs got into an accident while we were out of town and she handled everything excellently.

We enjoyed working with Magdalena. She was responsible, conscientious and kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing while we were on our trip. She was kind to our dogs and left our home neat and tidy while housesitting.

Magdalena C. cancelled a booking after the stay began.

Magdalena was absolutely amazing, and we could not have asked for a better sitter for our two dogs. With only about a month’s notice, she was willing to take on a 10-night in-home stay for us, which immediately took a huge stress off our shoulders before our trip. Her communication throughout the entire vacation was incredible. She consistently kept us updated with pictures and videos, and it was obvious our dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention and care. The night before we left, our senior dog unfortunately developed a hotspot from excessive licking, so we had to ask Magdalena last minute if she could help with medicated shampoo and spray treatments while we were gone. She handled it without hesitation and even offered to take him to the vet if needed. Thankfully the treatments helped a lot, but what really stood out was how genuinely concerned and caring she was about his wellbeing. She also went above and beyond helping around the house by watering plants, cleaning up after our senior dog’s accidents, and even throwing in a load of laundry for us. We came home to a house in excellent condition — dishes done, everything tidy, and two very happy dogs. It was also clear she spent plenty of quality time with them, running them around in the backyard and offering walks as well. We would absolutely trust Magdalena with our dogs and home again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, communicative, and truly caring.

Magdalena took amazing care of our dogs!

We’ve had some amazing dog sitters in the past, but the care Magdalena provided was on an entirely different level. Our previous sitters were great, but this was a different kind of care, more loving, affectionate, nurturing, and deeply connected than anything we’ve experienced before. We had actually been avoiding vacations over the past year because of our 14-year-old senior dog. With his mix of good and tough days, we were nervous about leaving him and wanted someone we truly trusted to handle any situation, especially since he can get anxious when we’re away. We interviewed a number of sitters, but choosing Magdalena was a no brainer. From the moment she walked through the door, both dogs were instantly drawn to her, and the feeling was clearly mutual. She immediately showered them with affection, and they didn’t leave her side the entire visit. While we were away, Magdalena was an absolute dream. She kept us constantly updated with photos and thoughtful daily summaries, which gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond in her care, even taking them on daily field trips to dog parks and giving them long, enriching walks. What really stood out was how quickly she understood each dog’s unique needs. She recognized that our senior dog needed more mental stimulation, while our younger dog needed more physical activity, and she balanced both perfectly. In fact, her care seemed to give our older dog a bit of renewed energy. Magdalena is also an amazing trainer. Throughout her time with our dogs, she naturally introduced helpful training techniques and tips, which made a noticeable difference. We truly couldn’t be more impressed. Magdalena treated our dogs like her own, and it showed in how happy and well cared for they were. Because of the trust we now have in her, we feel much more confident about traveling in the coming months. It is such a relief knowing we have a sitter who will meet our dogs’ needs so exceptionally well. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.
