1. Carla V.


“Carla was great in every way . . . with our 15-year-old male tiger cat and 19-month-old Havanese puppy. The animals bonded with Carla, thanks to her interaction and instincts with them. She sent us daily photos of our fur loves, so helpful as we were thousands of miles away. And, she left our apartment house impeccably clean! We will definitely connect with Carla the next time we are away.”


2. Tarsha & Dexter H.


“Tarsha and Dexter took amazing care of our dog and our home. Our dog is big and very excitable but they befriended him instantly. The daily updates and pictures were a huge relief and it was amazing to come home to a clean house. Highly recommend!”


3. Gillian L.

“Gillian was great, my pups loved her and she was very communicative throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter! 5 stars”


4. Jason F.

“My dogs absolutely LOVED Jason! He definitely gets and understands how to connect with animals, and also knows the needs of a fur-mom when away; needing to know that they’re safe and content. He was communicative and always let me know how they were doing and what was going on. I’ll be calling on him again for sure!”


5. Erin D.

“Erin did an amazing job with my fur babies. Would absolutely book her again! My house was clean and she washed bedding! She also did a lot of shoveling snow while we were away! So appreciative of all she did!”


6. Naomi W.
“Naomi has taken care of my pets on many occasions and done an amazing job. One of my dogs is reactive to other dogs and in addition is a “tripawd”, having lost a rear leg due to injury. She can be a bit of a handful to manage, due to her reactivity and also due to her physical limitations. Naomi is an expert managing her behavior and is keenly observant of her physical state; which allows her to plan walks that give my dog the right amount of exercise without overtaxing her. Naomi has also cared for my cats on many occasions and has an instinctive connection with animals, even very shy cats. She is extremely conscientious about feeding and medications, including special dietary requirements for my senior dog. I always feel complete peace of mine leaving my pets in her care.”


7. Kenedi A.

“Kenedi is a top tier pet sitter! We have 3 large breed dogs who are sweet but can be a little overwhelming. She has the perfect energy for this job. She spent time playing and giving our dog love and attention at each visit. She did everything you could ask of a pet sitter, and more! She will be our go-to anytime we leave town.”


8. Adriane T.
“Only the best for ANY animal in Adriane's care! She has a large yard, her own chickens, and cats and dogs too. She has multiple years of experience with many temperaments and provides the best food/treats to keep them the healthiest they can be. Never a day without a treat in her home 😊”


9. Andrea W.

“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”


10. Atlas B.

“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”


11. Haley W.

“Haley was awesome! She took care of our puppy and cat for a week. They were both so happy! She gave them so much attention and kept us informed while we were away. When we came home the house was spotless! Our pets were relaxed and you could tell she spent a great deal of time with them to keep them entertained. We will definitely hire Haley again!”


12. Melissa H.

“Melissa did an awesome job taking care of my two fur babies for a week. I recommend her for any of your needs. I have one dog who has to have medication very morning and one dog who is anxious over everything and I am more than pleased to have come home to a happy home.”


13. Syleena M.
“Syleena is the most caring, loving, and trustworthy person I know she always puts her animals needs before her own. I’ve had to go away and I need someone to watch my dog and she was there with him the whole time and he loved her company.”


14. Keagan M.
“Keagan is one of the most loving and caring people that I know. He has helped raise and take care of 3 dogs as well as owned several smaller animals while growing up. He absolutely LOVES his pets and treats them as family members. I am 100% confident that he would treat others pets with the same level of love and care.”


15. Nathan B.
“I am writing to recommend Nathan as a pet care provider. Nate has been doing pet care services now for going on 10 years. (In addition to providing this service, he also does house sitting.) Nathan is a pet owner himself and has helped me whelp 3 litters of German Shepherd pups, as well as raise/train my current German Shepherd. Nathan is a very responsible pet owner and a consummate professional. If you are looking to hire someone who will give your pet(s) the care and attention they deserve, please consider Nate for the job. You won't be disappointed!”


16. Emma B.
“Emma has been our farm sitter of choice for years. At 16 years old, she was far more responsible than many older adults. She is capable, knowledgeable and willing to work. She clearly loves all animals and can handle difficult situations with a calm, cool head. I have the very highest regard for her!”


17. Jen S.

“Jen is amazing! She treated our babies and house just like her own. She took care of Abby, Diesel, Baxter, our chickens, and even Draco the leopard gecko. She cleaned the house before we got home and gave daily updates. We even got to FaceTime and talk to them. We will use Jen for any of our future needs.”


18. Rachel Y.
“Rachel is one of the most caring people in the world with animals. Not only has she taken in animals no one else cared for, she’s gone above and beyond for the animals in her life that aren’t even hers”


19. Susan C.
“Susan is one of the few people in the world I would trust with my beloved dog. She is compassionate and kind, but firm when needed. Susan is a naturally nurturing and caring person. She is responsible and reliable . I have seen her with many kinds of dogs from lap dogs to pit bulls and she is confident and relaxed with all. If you need dog sitting, I can promise your pet will be in great hands with Susan Colby.”


20. Michael L.
“We’ve been lucky to have Michael L. care for our pets, Eli and Juniper, and we can’t recommend him enough! Michael has a natural gift with animals—Eli and Juniper are always excited to see him, which speaks volumes about the trust and bond they’ve developed with him. Whether it’s for a walk, a play session, or simply some TLC while we’re away, Michael treats our pets like family. He’s attentive, reliable, and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. We couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for our beloved pets. Thank you, Michael, for your exceptional care and love for Eli and Juniper!"”
