“Morgan is a delight! She was punctual, responsible and took excellent care of our dogs for the weekend. Would have her back without any hesitation.”
“Caroline was responsible and caring for my dog during a 3 night stay. She had good communication about my pups, and left my house so neat when I returned. I’d recommend her to anyone.”
“Alana was fantastic! She had great communication skills and sent many pictures of our two dogs while we were on vacation! She clearly took amazing care of them and was extremely respectful of our home!”
“David was great. We used his service for a day while we were skiing with the family. We have two dogs and one is a 32 week old puppy that is a little anxious. David contact us and let us know has was anxious and we suggested a few strategies that seemed to work.”
“Victoria did a great job watching my two cats for a week! She was very communicative and the cats were very comfortable with her. I’d absolutely have her catsit again!”
“Charlene stayed at our house for almost two weeks and our dog and home has never been cared for as well while we were gone as Charlene did. She is caring, respectful, accommodating, responsible, patient, thoughtful, and extremely thorough. She kept us up to date on everything and made sure she followed our requests. She is a wonderful caregiver and I would recommend her for any pet, even the stubborn ones.”
“Lily was great! Came through on a last minute request and was so good with my dog. She also extended her visit to stay with Spiorad when she was acting weird which I so appreciated. We’re going to be repeat customers!”
“Kelcee was great with our dog! She was punctual, communicative, and gave us lots of updates while we were away. I could tell that she took wonderful care of our pup and we would definitely hire her again!”
“I am so very grateful that Larry was able to stay at our home and take care of our cat and dog over the holidays — with a *very* last-minute booking, no less! Our cat clearly really trusted him (which doesn’t always happen so quickly) and I really appreciated the efforts he took to play with the cat. Larry also went above and beyond in making sure that my very active dog got plenty of exercise. He took her to a variety of dog parks for hours at a time and I think she was living a much better life with Larry than she does with me! :) I got great updates when I was away and the house was clean and welcoming when I returned. I didn’t get to meet Larry (and Betty!) until the end of their stay, which further speaks to their flexibility — their original “meet and greet” was with the pet sitters I had staying at my home right before them. They were so friendly and professional, and had clearly bonded with my pets — I’d certainly recommend them to others. THANK YOU!”
“Sara took wonderful care of Charlie and I would certainly leave him with her again. Even though he can be shy, Charlie took to Sara the first time he met her which put me right at ease. It was easy to communicate with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of them together. When I returned it was obvious that Charlie was well taken care of and that my condo was left as clean and neat as I left it!!”
“We hired Salina as an in house cat sitter during our 8 day vacation to the cape. We had no idea at the time that we had found a sitter that did anything but sit. She played with ‘Roosevelt’ with toys she purchased herself; she showered our cat with love recognizing his need for affection and at the same time, showed respect for his individuality and need for his own space and routine. Best of all, in Salina’s communication with us throughout our vacation she described a real bonding and friendship she and Roosevelt formed. We could see this for ourselves in the photos she sent us. My husband and I would not hesitate for a moment to place Roosevelt again entirely in Salina’s capable hands.”
“Camila was a great pet sitter! She was a great communicator, very polite, and Stella loved her! Highly recommend using Camila! We will be contacting her for our future weekend trips!”
“This is the 2nd time this year I’ve worked with Sarah and once again she was fantastic! I would recommend her - and work with her again - without hesitation. My cats are so calm and happy when I return. And I love the pictures and updates she sends me every day. She’s great about keeping in touch to confirm all the details beforehand and about letting me know that everything is OK while I am away. Sara makes it much easier for me to go away knowing that my cats are well cared for.”
“Paige took great care of Gracie and provided lots of updates. She carefully followed all directions and clearly cares deeply for animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for your dog sitting needs :)”
“James is an excellent pet caregiver. He is a very kind, thoughtful, and compassionate individual which is shown through his love of animals. When caring for my dog, he sends updates on how the day is going and shares pictures and videos. I always know my dog is safe and happy when I leave him with James.”
“Natalie was a wonderful sitter while we were away. My dog is very attached to me and she was able to keep him distracted. She sent pictures. Definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Hello Stephanie has watched my dog in the past and also has dog sat for friends of mine over night she is very attentive to the animals loves to play with them & gives them plenty of attention . I highly recommend Stephanie she’s very trustworthy & I know my pup is in great hands when leaving them with her”
“Devon is amazing! I felt so comfortable leaving her at the house with butterscotch (double doodle), Jack, and George the cats. She was very responsible and sent many photos of our animals. I would fully recommend her for your pet care needs.”
“Halleen was so kind and loving to our dog. We felt so comfortable allowing her to stay at our house. She did such a great job, communicated well and in additions to walking, she took our dog to play at the local park a few times over the weekend. We can’t wait to have her look after our dog again. Fantastic job.”
