Amanda did an excellent job taking care of our reactive dog while we were away for the weekend. She followed all our instructions, communicated very well, and gave Sierra lots of attention and playtime.

Tam was great with our nervous cavalier spaniels. She helped them settle down even though we were away. They were very well cared for and our home was as well.

Mike was so great taking care of our fur babies as well as our home. He will love your pets as his own and wants to make sure their routine doesn’t change just because we are away. We felt very reassured while they were in his care. Highly recommend!

Emily was wonderful with our 10mo puppy, giving him attention and providing enrichment throughout the day, taking him on his midday walk and feeding him lunch. We came home to a happy, wriggly, sleepy puppy. Emily also left the sweetest report card and polaroid shot of Kiwi at the end of the day :)

Aaron was a lifesaver. I had a last-minute situation where I had to travel. Essentially, with very little notice, I needed somebody who could commit to staying the entire day with my dog, Lulu. No problem for Aaron. He did everything I asked of him. And you can tell that he loves animals. I’m recommending him to my neighbors who often need a dog walker. I would definitely hire Aaron again. He is 100% reliable. Don’t hesitate for a second, if you need a sitter/walker. Aaron is outstanding!

We had a fantastic experience with Nicole! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish — always quick to respond and kept us updated with regular photos and messages. Nicole was punctual, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Our pup instantly warmed up to her, and it was clear they were in great hands the whole time. She went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog. It was such a relief knowing our pet was being cared for by someone so friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. We’d absolutely book with Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter

Jamie was so great!! We booked her for dog sitting, while my wife and I went out to dinner. She is very responsive and made herself readily available for a meet and greet with our pup. We were a little worried about our high energy pup and having someone else watch him for the night, but Jamie came in confident and ready to take care of our little guy. Definitely recommend and will definitely book her service again soon!

Julia W. was great with our exuberant goldendoodle, Jake. She clearly loves animals, and has excellent experience with dog care and training. Jake was busy each day with multiple walks, playtime, and then some nice down time. Julia communicated well, sent us pictures, was very responsive. We knew that our dog was in great hands. Thank you so much!

Caroline was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our house while we were away and took such great care of our dog, Jax, and our cat, Meeka. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. She kept us updated, made sure both pets were happy and comfortable, and left our home just as we left it. Jax and Meeka were both relaxed and well cared for when we returned, which says everything. We’re so grateful for Caroline and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and kind pet sitter. We would happily book her again!

Leo is an amazing cat sitter!! Truly the best. This was my second time booking with them for cat care but the first time house sitting too. Leo did great with giving my cat his meds every day and made sure my smaller cat got her meals without getting bullied by my big guy. Leo sent tons of pictures and thoughtful updates throughout the day. I was away for 11 days but I felt so good the whole time knowing my cats were well taken care of and getting totally spoiled by all the pets and attention. I would 100000% recommend Leo and will definitely be booking with them again!!

She is an exceptionally responsible, quick-learning sitter, and an excellent communicator. Plus, she seriously makes the best shortbread cookies I have EVER tasted. We will not hesitate to book her again!

Shawn was and is fabulous. Our cat, Nicholas, had a sudden and unexpected medical issue and Shawn acted immediately, driving him to our local vet to be stabilized and then to the emergency vet hospital for treatment. We cannot thank her enough for the love and care which she gave him. She also took great care of Harry, our dog; and he too would like to thank her. If Shawn's schedule permits her to return when we next travel, we wouldn't have anyone else.

Leilani truly went above and beyond caring for Luna while I was away. Luna has separation anxiety, but Leilani was incredibly patient, loving, and attentive with her from the moment they met. She took extra time with her on walks, never rushed her, and made sure Luna felt safe and comfortable the entire stay. I could genuinely tell that Luna was loved and cared for like family. It means the world to have someone you can fully trust with your dog, and I would recommend her to anyone. Luna misses her! And the photos were a lovely bonus!

Chelseigh was incredibly helpful to us right from the start, and very attentive to Aya. Chelseigh made a point of getting to know Aya's habits, and the communication while we were away was excellent—sent us photos and kept us updated on how Aya was doing! Chelseigh has helped us twice now, and every time we returned home, we found Aya very calm and relaxed!

We’re incredibly grateful to have found someone we could trust to care for our dog. Given her age, temperament, and uncertainty around strangers, we were concerned that the stress of a new caregiver might be overwhelming for her. Natalie did an outstanding job—not only helping our dog feel comfortable, but also giving our entire family peace of mind. Her consistent communication, including thoughtful updates and photos of Kubbie, made a real difference and allowed us to truly relax while we were away. We highly recommend Natalie and would absolutely trust her again in the future.

Great communication and very responsive. Highly recommend!
