1. Aiden R.
“Aiden has taken care of our pets (cats, dogs, goats, reptiles) for years and does and amazing job! He is very responsible and reliable- if he commits to something he follows through. We call him the dog whisperer because he is so good with them. I would trust him to watch my pets any time!”
2. Rebecca H.
“She did great with my anxious german shepherd! At first I was worried because he is a lot for some people to handle but she was awesome and my dog seems to really like her! :) She’s also super easy to communicate with and affordable. Awesome sitter.”
3. Sandy D.
“Sandy was great! She took time to come over the day before to meet our boys and get comfortable with them, she arrived early and took great care of our fur babies. We would definitely call Sandy again!”
4. Dale P.
“It was great to work with Dale again- she’s communicative and quick to respond. In addition to taking care of my cats she helped water a few plants and take out the trash bins as requested l, which was a huge help. Thanks, Dale!”
5. Christa joy C.
“I have a pretty anxious pup, so it can be challenging to find the right person who can make her feel safe while also handling all of her (adorable!) quirks, but she adores Christa joy. Christa joy is great at providing frequent updates and pictures and checking in with any questions that arise while my pup is with her. It's never easy leaving your pet behind but I assure you, your pup will be in excellent hands with Christa joy and will likely come back having a better vacation than you did!”
6. Nicole & Matthew B.
“Nicole has taken care of our pets and home for years now. She is extremely responsible and goes out of her way to make sure our animals are happy, taken care of and our plants are watered. I would recommend Nicole to anyone who is considering a pet sitter. She is knowledgeable with animals that require medication and medical care knows how to handle emergency situations.”
7. Amanda A.
“Amanda is just what I've been looking for! She loves animals and obviously knows a lot about how to treat them. She didn't mind any of my quirky directions and my dogs love her. I will definately ask for Amanda again..”
8. Alexis S.
“I can't recommend Alexis highly enough as a dog walker. She is incredibly caring and dedicated, and it's clear how much she genuinely loves dogs. Every time she walked my dog, I knew my pet was in great hands. Alexis went above and beyond by providing detailed updates after each walk, including notes on how my dog was feeling and anything special that happened during their time together. It made me feel so reassured and grateful. Not only is she a responsible and trustworthy dog walker, but she's also a truly wonderful human being. Her warmth and commitment shine through in everything she does, and any pet owner would be lucky to have her care for their furry friend.”

18. Jeannette W.
“Jeannette is amazing. I have an American Bulldog who just had TPLO surgery. He has a lot of energy and is difficult to keep down, and we need a sitter for when we have to leave. I also have a Boxer puppy, and she was able to manage both of them perfectly. I could not say enough nice things about Jeannette and her services.”
