11. Mikayla & Justin W.

“Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!”


12. Frances O.

“So appreciative of Frances. Great communication. Will definitely request again.”


13. Garrett F.

“Garrett is hands down the best person to trust with your pet. We left our 7 year old, lively & sociable shepherd mix alone for the first time when we went to Portugal for 10 days. This was the first time Buster had been left with anyone outside the family, and to say I was nervous was an understatement. Garrett went above and beyond, sending messages with pictures and a brief check in, reassuring us that Buster was fine - the pictures gave us real evidence that he was indeed a happy camper, and honestly some of the photos made it seem like he was having a better time than if we’d been home! Haha, but in all seriousness, I would recommend Garrett 100% to anyone, and will definitively be going to him first whenever we need Buster care in the future. Thank you, Garrett!!!”


14. Melissa K.

“This was our second time having Melissa cat sit, and again she took great care of our cats! She gave medications and had no problems working with our somewhat difficult cat. I always hope she’s available when we travel!”


15. Cristina V.
“Cristina is a kind, responsible and trustworthy pet-sitter! She has cared for my anxious rescue dog, Daisy on several occasions and was so great with her. She always kept me in the loop and asked questions when needed!”


16. Lily W.

“Lily did a great job caring for our two cats! They’re very shy but she was able to make a little progress. She was on time with her visits and they were very well taken care of!”


17. Julia C.


“Julia did a great job of taking care of my dog Louis. My house and the yard were in perfect condition when I returned. Julia provided lots of updates and even cleaned up Louis's food and water station. Will be rebooking Julia and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a walker or sitter.”


18. Jessica A.

“Jessica was very accommodating with my relatively short notice trip. One of my cats can be very shy but he felt comfortable enough to come for most of her visits. Everything looked great when I returned home. I would definitely use Jessica again!”


19. Tomomi Y.
“Tomomi is an animal lover and she is very kind and gentle too them all. She owns a dog herself and she takes very good care of her. She walks and plays with her often and makes sure she is well fed and hydrated. Tomomi is absolutely the loving pet caregiver anybody would wish for!”


20. Sarah Y.

“Sarah is the most wonderful person to watch after our dear cats. Our friendly boy simply loves her and our shy girl is still comfortable with her. We are SO thankful for her careful notes and kind spirit! She is so patient and knowledgeable, too, with deep understanding of animal behavior.”
