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.

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!

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!

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.

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.
