Amy was absolutely amazing. She stayed with my two dogs for a week in my home. My dogs are wary of strangers and can be a bit finicky as a result (extra chatty, Velcro-dog syndrome at times), and Amy took it all in stride. She was a good communicator that provided regular updates, and my dogs were very obviously happy with her being there. Will absolutely book Amy again!

She gave multiple updates throughout the day and sent me the best photos and videos. Thank you so much Valeria, you are a gem!!

We have a 4 month old and a 7 year old. She balanced the energy of the baby so well while also making sure our “elder” got love and attention. Will absolutely be using Kelly in the future and highly recommend her!

She asked lots of important questions during our meet and greet and followed my instructions closely. She provided daily updates with pictures, which ensured me my dog was getting the best care! Her communication was great and I appreciated that she left my house clean for when I returned. Will definitely have Victoria sit for me again in the future!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very little. I’ve always had a dog in my home that I have walked, fed, and bathed, but I have taken care of my neighbors and friends pets as well. I love animals of all kinds and since I don’t currently have one of my own I look forward to spending time with them more often! I love playing with dogs and cats as well as training them and just spending time with them. I work for part of the week, but I don’t have a normal Monday through Friday work schedule so I am often free during the times when you might be at work. I am also free most evenings. When caring for your dog in your home, it is important to me that they feel safe and loved and comfortable. I will make sure they are well fed and taken care of both physically and emotionally.

Paige was absolutely the perfect person to watch our anxious 5 year old dog. After not spending a single night without us for the last year and a half, we were worried about leaving Brutus for a long weekend - but Paige cared for him so well that I doubt he even knew we were gone! LOL. She spoiled him with big walks in the arboretum, lots of playtime with his favorite ball, and just so many cuddles. She is a great communicator, respectful of your home, and just such a wonderfully kind human. We can’t wait to book her again for our next trip out of town.

Kennady exceeded our expectations. This was our first time having someone stay with our two dogs, which we were a little nervous about. Our week could not have been better. Kennady was extremely professional and polite, and updated us with photos everyday like we asked. She went above and beyond for us and left our home spotless and I know our dogs can’t wait to have her here again. We will be using Kennady’s services going forward and are very happy we found her.

Laura took care of our 5 year old yorkie for 8 nights while we were out of the country. This was the first time leaving Isla at home with someone who was not a family member. It gave me peace of mind having Laura encourage me to send her the notes I wrote up ahead of time so she could read up on Islas quirks and communication style. She was very respectful of my need to pass along information to assuage my anxiety. Laura was extremely conscientious regarding my requests of Islas routine and our home. She showered love on her while following her cues around exercise given the high temperatures. I could tell Isla was very happy in all the photos Laura sent. Being a Yorkie, Isla is a real lap dog who loves physical contact and I knew Laura was more than meeting her needs. Even with the time difference, our communication was smooth and consistent. As happy as Isla was to have us home, I can tell she’s missing Laura.

Josh was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, he was kind, reliable, and clearly had a genuine love for animals. Oliver immediately felt comfortable with him, which says a lot, because my pet doesn’t warm up to just anyone. The house was left spotless, and I came home to a happy, calm pet. It was clear my pet was happy, relaxed, and well taken care of the whole time. I would 100% recommend Josh to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and professional. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Victoria was by far the best house and pet sitter we could have asked for! Our animals are our children, and leaving them behind is always a source of stress—but not this time. We had zero worries while we were away. She took such great care of our corgi, giving him daily exercise and even taking him on little adventures. She kept our cat happy too—litter box spotless and food always full. We especially appreciated the daily updates and the adorable photos that gave us so much peace of mind. As if that wasn’t enough, we came home to a house that was cleaner than we left it! Truly above and beyond in every way. If you're looking for someone to treat your pets and home with love and care, book Victoria now. You won’t regret it!

Wanda was fantastic with our dogs, including our puppy with pretty significant separation anxiety. She was great to work with and offered to arrive early to get to know the dogs before we left. We will definitely have her care for the dogs again!

Gracie cared for our dog and two cats, and went above and beyond taking great care of our dog’s unexpected acute medical condition. She is extremely responsible and treated our pets like family. We highly recommend Gracie!

Super easy to communicate with and took amazing care of my pups, including my senior husky who needs a little extra care and love. Great experience, I know my house and pups are in good hands.

Kim is a great dog sitter. She was calm and very attentive to our dog. I can tell she loves dogs. She was very communicative from the start, listening well, asking questions, responding in a timely manner, and sending video of her and our dog playing. I highly recommend her as a sitter.

Lyna did an awesome job watching our 2 dogs for the weekend! Both dogs seemed very relaxed happy when we returned, and our typically anxious one didn't have any stomach issues like she often does when we go away.

Allison was wonderful with our two dogs! She was very positive and willing to work to gain their trust with her calm, cheerful attitude. We loved the daily photos, videos with commentary (!!), and updates. We highly recommend Allison.

Paulina was wonderful. We had a last minute complete change of plans due to illness and she was very flexible and made it work for our needs. I highly recommend her!

Ani is a fantastic sitter, she accepted a last minute booking request and was super communicative. She did a great job handling my pup who is very shy at first with new sitters.
