2. Nadine R.
“Nadine is an exceptional pet caregiver, and I can't recommend her enough. She has taken care of my high-energy pup, Cosmo, with such patience and understanding.

3. Katie C.
“Katie has taken care of our golden retriever (and our cat) many times over the past 2 years. We have no worries when we go on vacation knowing Katie is taking such good care of them. She is trustworthy, reliable and loves our pets - and they love her! They get so excited when Katie comes to our house. If you are planning a vacation, day trip or just need an extra daily walk or two for your dog - know that your dog will be in great hands. I highly recommend Katie!!!”

11. Diana L.
“Diane was so helpful and our cats loved her! She checked in daily and always gave us an update with cute photos. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommended. Thank you!”
12. Maeve R.
“I cannot recommend Maeve enough for her incredible care of Bean, our redbone coonhound! She has a calm, confident approach that puts Bean at ease. Redbone coonhounds can be a handful with their high energy and strong hunting instincts, but Maeve handled every walk, play session, and snuggle with enthusiasm and expertise. She even created a Bean Song to sing to Bean, since Bean sings her (and all guests) into the house whenever she arrives. After Maeve cares for Bean, she is happy, well-exercised, and content, and Maeve keeps us updated with thoughtful messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Maeve also takes excellent care of our house - bringing in the trash and packages, picking up after herself, and starting the dishwasher before she leaves on her last day. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter, look no further than Maeve! Bean can’t wait for their next adventure together!”

14. Coral H.
“Coral is absolutely wonderful! I trusted her to take care of my fur babies and I was beyond pleased! Very trustworthy and responsible. She took great care of them, was very communicative with me and I would 100% use her again!”
15. Marlee R.
“Marlee was amazing! Frankie loved her. And she kept me in the loop the whole time. I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone to care for their fur baby.”
16. Jai C.
“I have known Jai C for many years. I have watched him raise two Seeing Eye puppies. He resides in a home with 5 well trained dogs. He is known as the Dog Whisperer. Any dog will be lucky to have him on their side. He is compassionate.”
17. Claire T.
