1. Nyasia A.

“This is the second time Nyasia has sat for my dogs and she’s just amazing. Good communication, leaves the house spotless, and takes great care of the fur babies.”


2. Heather B.

“Heather walks my dog on the days I work, and she is incredibly reliable, so communicative and very quickly responsive. My dog loves her too, and I always appreciate the pictures she’s sends on their walks. Recently, we went out of town for the weekend, and Heather house sat. She sent multiple updates and pictures a day, which was so appreciated, and was just as communicative and reliable as always! I felt so secure leaving my guy and home knowing Heather would be there to take care of home. Thank you again!!”


3. Clyanna L.

“Clyanna did a fantastic job keeping Trixie safe and happy while we were gone. She was very patient and accommodating to allow Trixie to warm up to her and then they were great friends. I recommend Clyanna for shy pets.”


4. Annabelle A.

“The gig wasn’t just a gig, it’s her own personal character and professionalism that makes her great at this and anything Annabelle does —and the simple matter of how great she was isn’t just the fact she did an amazing job—she put up with a LOT, and Annabelle crushed it. She was perfection. I was so impressed by how well she handled the whole thing, because it was really not easy. I’m blessed to know she exists and my family is better off for her being in the world with us. Thank you so much it means the world to us!”


5. Megan F.

“Megan was great house sitting with our young dog. She came to meet him prior to accepting the appointment, arrived on time and kept us informed with pictures throughout the day. We were very pleased.”


6. Joe P.

“It was so great to have Joe as a sitter for our pups while we were out of town. He understood that the dogs were not use to being alone over night and was very flexible. We hope to have Joe back in the very near future!”


7. Alexis W.

“Alexis showed so much care for my kitty, Roo! She was consistent and transparent throughout the entire visit. I will absolutely book with her again.”


8. Rachel Z.

“Rachel was wonderful! She stayed with our 3 cats for 4 days and they were all very happy to have her. She was prompt when messaging and shared photos of the cats throughout her stay. We have a few special needs kitties, one of which is very shy. Our shy kitty doesn't warm up very quickly to strangers and even she took to Rachel within the first 24 hours. Her warmth and care made all the difference for them. We'll definitely have Rachel back the next time we need someone to stay. Thank you so so much!”




9. Natasha B.

“Natasha was great. She came over to the house before I accepted the service to make us comfortable and to meet the pups, she asked all the right questions (vet, emergency contact, etc), and took great care of the pups. Will definitely rebook!”


10. Ozzy J.

“Ozzy was amazing! They stayed at our house and watched our golden retriever Scotch and cat Persephone while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday. They sent us pictures & video of our fur babies and kept us updated on how they were doing. It’s important to us to have our pet sitters stay in our home while we are away, our animals get stressed in new environments, and Ozzy was so great! Our animals need alllll the attention, and Ozzy did not disappoint! They came over a week before to meet our Scotch & Percy and learn about the house. They even left a card for when we got home! Ozzy is fantastic, our animals loved them and we will definitely use them in the future when we go away. Thank you Ozzy!”


11. Sydney W.

“Sydney was just wonderful with my pup! She stayed the night with him and gave me great, detailed updates and videos… made sure he was well cared for and got plenty of attention while I was gone. I would not hesitate to hire her again,”




12. Andrea C.


“Andrea was great with Hubble! She's very communicative, punctual, and did a great job with Hubble's anxiety. We will definitely rebook with her.”


13. Glenmary A.

“Glenmary and her partner were phenomenal! I asked for a last minute puppy sitting (plus two older animals, a husky and a cat) and she was very responsive and even managed to do a meet and greet. 10/10, will definitely book again! Thank you!!”


14. Merissa M.

“Merissa is so wonderful, kind, prompt, and genuinely caring!! My boy loved her and she took amazing care of him!! Highly recommend her for all your pet care needs!”


15. Amanda C.

“Amanda was very communicative did everything we asked while we were on our 2 day cruise. We will book Amanda’s services again should we need to!”


16. Lynne D.
“Super reliable; really cares for her pets and will go out of her way to make sure they have everything they need. If you want love, honesty, respect, understanding.... you'll get it from her!”


17. Haylea A.

“Haylea stayed with our 13 year old dog for 5 nights. Since we are both retired, it was especially important to us that our dog have a lot of company as she is used to our being home. A big plus is Haylea works from home 4 of 5 days a week and was able to be with our dog a lot. Haylea texted photos and kept us up to date on how our fur baby was doing. Highly recommend her!”


18. Katrina D.

“Katrina is courteous, punctual and reliable. She was a great dog sitter and took great care of our sweet senior dog exactly according to our requests and sent updates and pictures regularly. We highly recommend her and will use her again whenever the need arises. Thank you, Katrina!”


19. Allie O.

“Allie was wonderful! We had her do house sitting while away for a week. She was tidy in the house and so responsive to any communications. Dependable and trust worthy. She took great care of the pups and spent a lot of time with them. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone looking!”


20. Lauren B.
“Lauren is an excellent pet owner and caretaker. She has taken care of my cats and dogs several times and is always responsible, kind, calm, and communicates with me well. I trust her with my animals any time I have to be away from them.”
