Morgan was amazing! So helpful, responsive, took amazing care of our home (even shoveled when we got some snow!!!). Our pup was happy to see us, but had clearly been loved. He was still very responsive to commands and was appropriately tired from a long walk. Thank you Morgan - we are so grateful and can't wait to book you again!

Nicole is amazing! She took great care of my dogs Tsooshe and Sadie. Gave them lots of loving and care. Made adorable videos of them and sent us photos and kept us informed. She played with them, took them to the park, pampered them.She also took care of our fish. We returned to happy healthy dogs . She took care of our home. She is wonderful! I will be asking for her help again. I highly recommend her.

Luis is honestly one of the best caregivers I've found for my elderly dog. He is patient and kind, and I have absolute confidence that my old girl is in excellent hands when I need to leave her. I rebooked Luis within days of his last stay. I recommend him without reservation!

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!!

Here’s a polished review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Dog Sitter! We cannot recommend Paige highly enough! She went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Mochi, while we were away. Not only did she ensure Mochi was well-fed, but she also used her creativity and critical thinking to ease Mochi’s tummy troubles with thoughtful meal preparation. She took Mochi on multiple long walks daily and kept us updated with detailed messages & wonderful pictures - and was always responsive to any questions or requests that arose. On top of that, we came home to a spotless house and, most importantly, a very happy pup! It’s clear that she truly loves and understands animals, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she provided. We would absolutely trust her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Paige, for everything!

Miranda is amazing! First time to use her and definitely won’t be the last. She took such great care of our Havanese and outside cat. She was awesome to send daily updates and pictures. She is very trustworthy and loves animals, you can tell. She stayed almost a week at our house and took great care of our house as well. She took the trash cans to the curb, collected our mail and cleaned up after herself when her stay was done. Can’t sing her praises enough!! Thanks Miranda! Bella already misses you.

Christina has been absolutely incredible in helping care for my three dogs – Buddy, Henley and Stella Blue – over the last couple of years. From walking all three of them, to feeding them, to watching them while I’m away or running errands, she’s been consistently dependable and exceptional. My dogs are high-energy and can be a bit of a handful at times, but Christina handles them with ease, meeting their needs with professionalism, compassion, and a calm demeanor. Plus, they absolutely love hanging out and playing with her! Additionally, she’s incredibly attentive and always looks out for their well-being. While I’ve been fortunate not to experience any emergencies while they're in her care, I’ve seen how quick-thinking and level-headed Christina is, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing my dogs are in her care. I couldn’t recommend Christina more highly to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and skilled dog walker or sitter. She’s truly a natural with dogs, and I’m so grateful for the care she provides!

Moose loved his night hanging with Ani! My plans were last minute, so I reached out to Ani only a few hours before needing her. She was quick to respond and very professional. She even came by before to meet Moose and learn some paticulars about him. She was very communicative and send updates often along with pictures. I felt at ease all night and loved the pictures of him. Definitely will be using Ani in the future!
