2. Annika R.


“Thank you Annika for taking great care of our 4 dogs! Knowing that they were in good care allowed us to enjoy our time away for the family wedding. The great communication while we were out of town really helped us so we didn't miss the dogs so much! We highly recommend Annika for any pet related care! She gets to know your pet and forms a bond which reduces the stress on you and your pets. Thank you again for being so awesome!”

7. Ashton B.
“Ashton is a phenomenal, caring pet sitter. She’s trustworthy, communicative and will care for your pets and home. She watched our 3 cars and dog when we went on a last minute trip over spring break. Delighted she was available and willing to stay in our house for 6 nights/7 days. Home was clean and tidy, she went above and beyond to ensure kitchen was clean, bedding removed from the bed, and the house was locked up. Felt completely safe with her, and know our pets loved her based on the photos she shared daily. Highly recommend!”

“Chloee did an amazing job! Haru is quite stubborn and takes time to trust anyone, but Chloee was very patient with him and took a great care of him while I was away.

11. Lauren W.

“Lauren was fantastic with watching my dog Jack. She was super helpful in explaining the app and what her schedule was for the in house sitting. She took him to the dog park and on walks constantly and always provided pictures and updates. Will absolutely be booking Lauren again in the future”


12. Erik M.
“Erik is a very caring and responsible pet owner who I’ve seen take so much extra care for animals. Whether it be his own pet or one of his friends or even a stranger’s, Erik takes great care to make sure the animals around him are comfortable and taken care of. I’ve seen him researching best tactics for cat caregiving many times as he thoughtfully implements good practices into his routines with his best friend and kitty Bumi. Bumi was a starving street cat when they met and Erik and him slowly courted each other until a trusting bond was made and Bumi moved in. I hear many stories about training and caring for his past animals who he holds dear to his heart.”




13. Alex R.


“My cat, Bailey, is an extremely active, playful, affectionate and SPOILED 2 year old who had never been separated from me. His breed is known for separation anxiety. So the idea of me being gone for 10 days in Europe and not knowing how he would do was a major stressor to me. As soon as we met Alex, my fears were alieved. . Bailey took to Alex right away and even brought a favorite mouse to be thrown back and forth. I knew Alex was the right sitter for my little guy. Alex is very chill, very personable and detail oriented. I had a book of notes to make the stay/sit more comfortable. Alex sent daily pics, videos and texts, showing Bailey’s adjustment to a stranger and the relationship they subsequently developed. It was both sweet and very comforting to me. If Alex did have a question, a text would be sent. When I came home, my home was completely spotless, as I expected it would be. Bottom line, I could not have asked for a better sitter for the little love of my life than Alex. When the time comes again, I will again request Alex.”


14. Karley M.

“Karley is an awesome dog sitter. She watched our dogs for two weeks while we were traveling. She stayed at our home, cuddled with the dogs, and made sure they were safe and in their routine. We will definitely keep asking her to care for our pups!”


15. Kayla V.

“Kayla was awesome. She took great care of our two cats and our house. She’s a good communicator and and kept us informed during her stay. One of our cats requires medication three times a day, and Kayla didn’t flinch at this extra work. We’re grateful for her attentiveness and gladly recommend her without reservation.”


16. Karen H.
“Karen h is a truly amazing dog sitter! It can be stressful to find someone you trust with your special friend! Our dog is hard to get people to sit for because he’s a true handful. Not only does she take the stress out of finding a dog sitter she actually makes me feel like she enjoys his wild personality! I’m so grateful to know someone like Karen exists! Her love for animals is so apparent. Your doggo will be in such good hands!”


17. Katherine S.

“Katie was fantastic! She watched our 2 high energy doggos and they were so good for her, they loved her so. She is very patient and experienced. Thanks Katie!”


18. Erica T.
