“Emerson was very communicative and shared regular photos of the pets, which I enjoy. He was also very helpful with some unexpected mail deliveries and minor house issues as well.”

“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”

“Mary was great! She sent us a lot of pictures and updates and we could tell Mojo was very comfortable with her. We will definitely use her again for our next trip!”

“Jessica was great! She took great care of our two dogs and communicated multiple times a day to let us know how things were going. We would definitely love to have her watch our dogs again!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Carolyn. It’s so great to have someone take care of my fur baby and my house while I’m out of town. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Jade was wonderful to work with! She was easy to coordinate with and asked thoughtful, thorough questions ahead of time. Our home was left tidy, and she made sure the door was locked when she left. Most importantly, our three dogs seemed happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned home, which speaks to the attention they received while we were away overnight. Thank you, Jade!”

“Laeana is fantastic. Took such great care of our animals and home, good communication and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing our babies were being well taken care of. Will book again for sure!”

“We will be a repeat customer of Sarah. She lived in our home while caring for our two Havenese fur babies over the course of a week. Sarah was a pleasure to work with and one you can immediately trust while traveling. She is very responsible. We highly recommend her.”

“Adrienne is an excellent dog sitter, I'm glad I hired her for this past weekend at my place. I was even gone a little past what I quoted for time frame and she was incredibly understanding!! Chance warmed up to her right away which is always a great sign - and I felt at ease when I was gone. Will definitely hire her again!”

“Our dogs were well cared for while we were away. Gabe followed all instructions, gave their medications without issue, and sent a few photo updates along the way. We appreciated knowing they were in good hands.”

“Samantha was so great! We got so many updates and photos of the dogs and was so nice just knowing everything was going well. We would be more than happy to have Samantha watch the girls again!”

“Briana was fabulous! Both my cat and dog are picky eaters and Briana got them to eat. She was patient and conscientious. Originally we had booked her to just cat-sit, but our plans for our dog fell through and she gladly took on the challenge of taking care of our diabetic dog, insulin shots and all. We are so thankful for her!”

“We hired Iluliia for our senior dog and our daughter’s high energy dog for a four day trip. The dogs each have different personalities and needs, which Iluliia handled with ease. She followed my daughter’s specific nutrition routine for her dog, which involved raw food and supplements. Iluliia understood our senior dogs needs for reassurance and extra attention. Iluliia provided excellent communication and a number of photos and videos. Our home was spotless upon return and she surprised us with a beautiful bouquet of my favorite flowers! We will definitely hire her again for our next trip!”

“Leah was awesome - took wonderful care of our kitty and our home while we were away for five days over Christmas. Kept in touch by sending us updates and photos so we knew everything was fine. Kitty had just had dental surgery, was on a special diet and can be anxious and lonely without her humans around. She's also shy around people she doesn't know. But she really took to Leah and they got along great. I'm definitely going to have Leah back the next time we are out of town and would highly recommend her for cat sitting.”


“Robert was super accommodating for a short-notice weekend with my pups & cat. He was super communicative and took great care of them all! Would highly recommend Robert!”

“Danish had a wonderful time with Samantha! I got daily updates on their time together. Samantha is responsive, easy going, and great to work with. We are definitely going to book with Samantha again!”

“Sadie is amazing! She watched our dog (8 year old Gordon Setter) in our home and was wonderful. Sadie texted the moment she arrived in our home and not only sent multiple updates a day, but also included a ton of photos of our dog! Sadie followed our in-home & care instructions. Sadie even checked-in w/ us after we returned home to ensure we arrived OK and also to see how our dog was doing. We'd definitely book Sadie again.”

Emerson is so great with my dog, Jelly, who can be quite spicy. He is on time, communicates clearly if he needs anything, sends cute photo updates. I trust Emerson enough that my husband and I could go to the Boundary waters for 4 days leaving our dog with him stress free. He also waited for us to return home which was very nice of him since we arrived later than expected. Emerson does well with clear, written instructions. We highly recommend Emerson has a sitter. His kind and patient approach with our dog has made sure that she is happy and calm while we are away.

Kaitlin made us feel comfortable to leave our dog for the first trip away from him since we got him as a puppy. She was very proactive with communication and sending pictures each day. The dog seemed very happy and well cared for when we got back. I would highly recommend Kaitlin's services and will use her again for dog sitting.

Absolutely terrific service. She made little videos after each visit that showed her time with my kitties. It was such a joy. First language is no English, but that does not have any impact on the amazing service, so please consider Sumak! I know I will be requesting in the future.

Maggie took the best care of my dog over the weekend! She was very communicative, friendly, and super understanding of my dog’s anxiety and needs. She asked great questions to make sure he felt comfortable and provided cute photos and updates. She also left my apartment super clean and exactly how she found it. 10/10 recommend!!
