“Natalie house sat my 2 dogs and 3 birds for a long weekend. Natalie is responsible and easy to reach. She responded promptly to any messages. One of my dogs requires special care as a senior and Natalie cared for him well. I would book Natalie again!”

“Paul was kind and responsive right from the start! He helped us out on a short notice watching our puppy Santiago. He provided us with great tips/tricks and met us early/stayed late. We will definitely book with him again, Santiago can’t wait to go on more walks! 🐾”

“It was such a wonderful experience having Vanessa watch Mochi at our house for us! We knew from the first moment at the meet-and-greet that Mochi would be well taken care of and we came home to a very happy pup. Vanessa took her out for walks as requested, sent us great photo updates, and cuddled with her while we were gone. Mochi was genuinely sad when we got home because Vanessa had to leave, and I think that says a lot about their bond! We will definitely ask Vanessa to house sit for us again!”

“It was great working with Jackie! She was very communicative, gave attentive care to our sweet pup and respected our home during a house sit. Looking forward to working with her again!”

“Rev was great in taking care of our two girls for a week. We got images of them and updates. When Pepper got sick, she kept us updated so that when we took her to the emergency vet the day we arrived we had the details of when it started. The house was clean when we arrived and you can tell she treated our girls well :) Fig panicked and cried when Rev said goodbye and left when we got home so that says a lot!!”

“Wen Shin is amazing!!!! She was so good with our Jackson!! we got so many pictures and videos it's like we were still home. she gave us updates on his eating, walks, and activities. The apartment was just as we left it. We will definitely be using Wen Shin's services again!”

“Miliana accommodated our very last minute sit due to our previous sitter cancelling for an emergency. We are super grateful and she took excellent care of our cat and dog, including paying close attention to our very specific instructions and sending many photo updates during the weekend. We highly recommend her!”

“Angie did a fantastic job watching Lady. She is very prompt with all communication. she was accommodating when we hit curveballs like not having parking for her car and when I was delayed on my return trip. she treats your dog like her own and sends lotssss of pictures . I also felt really comfortable having her in my apartment. She’s a girls girl and very respectful, she left the place spotless! Will work with her again!”

“Lukas was amazing. He was flexible with my needs as I was figuring out my trip and updated me daily to let me know my kitten was comfortable with his first ever sitter. Great experience !”

“Dana is always amazing and we’re so glad we got her once again to come stay with Otis! He really has a good time with her and she does such a good job taking care of him, giving him lots of snuggles and playing with him. Dana left the house sparkling clean while we were away. We cannot say enough good things about her. 😊”
