“Jessica was awesome! Very last minute thing came up and she was extremely flexible with being able to come meet our dogs. They were very happy and healthy when we got back. 10/10 recommend!”
“Anne was fantastic! She took care of my two German Shepherds and my cat. It was my first time leaving them with someone who was not a family member, so I was very nervous, but she met with me for an hour to meet the animals and go over everything under the sun that she may run into during her time caring for them. She read over my (very long) list of instructions and followed them closely. She was very communicative and responsive the entire time. My pets missed me, but they were all clearly very well taken care of and my house was as clean as I left it. Highly recommend!”
“Chelsea was amazing and treated our pup like her own! So detailed and thorough with her visit and keeping us informed. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Chelsea!!”
“Ayo was amazing! I needed a sitter on short notice and he was available and flexible. He was very communicative and kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos of my cat. He took really great care of her from feeding to play! I would definitely recommend and would happily rebook in the future. Thanks, Ayo!”
“Hannah did great with my pup, Duke. She stopped in twice to check in on him to take him on a walk to potty and to feed him dinner. She is quick to respond and shows up during the agreed upon times. Definitely would recommend.”
“Lauren is a wonderful sitter! She was communicative, sent lots of photos, and helped with my pup's medicine and injured leg while I was away. It was so nice to know she was taking care of him! I'd definitely use Lauren again.”
“Gabriel was fantastic taking care of our cats! Came home to two happy boys and a well maintained litter box, followed all directions given and sent reports with a bunch of photos which I really appreciated since I missed the cats!! Gabriel handled everything professionally and even brought the mail that came in up for us which was so kind! Fantastic sitter, thank you so much for taking such good care of the boys and on such short notice too!”
“HIGHLY recommend Noa! She could not have been a better sitter. She sent so many updates and pictures, and my cat absolutely loved her. Will absolutely be re-booking!”
“Alex was conscientious, timely, responsive, caring and judiciously insightful. I enjoyed excellent peace of mind while on vacation and trusted Alex to provide gentle and attentive house visits to feed and care for my cats. I enjoyed her daily correspondences and felt grateful to come home to a pair of healthy, happy kitties. Would hire her again definitely.”
“Daniel did an excellent job with Cavill! We are so happy he was able to stop by and provide our pup with some company / a check in while we were away for the evening. It seems like Cavill had a nice time, as well, based on the photos! will definitely be working with Daniel again in the future!”
“Meghan took such great care of my cat while I was away! She was always on time and followed my instructions perfectly! My cat got plenty of head rubs and playtime with her! Thank you!!”
“Audrey is absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her during our initial meet and greet I knew she was the right choice. She kept me informed during my entire vacation with photos of my kitties and detailed reports of each visit. She also watered my plants that looked thirsty. I really appreciate the way Audrey handles things. She made me feel so much better about leaving my babies for so many days. Not once did I worry that they weren’t safe and happy. Thank you so much for everything, Audrey!! I’m definitely saving your info for the next time I need a sitter.”
“Devin checked on my cat son Bruce for a week while I was away and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Her detailed recaps of the day allowed me to feel comfortable and make changes as needed to his care, which she easily adapted to and made Bruce happy and comfy while I was gone. She administered 3 pills a day and a 4th one as needed with no issue. She also washed all his bowls every day, ensured his water was fresh, and brought over a toy she thought he might like to add to playtime. It made me so much more relaxed during my travels to know he was in good care and I will definitely be booking with Devin again 🥰”
“The experience was awesome. I immediately felt comfortable with Areana at our Meet & Greet. It is obvious that she is an animal lover. Each day she came to cat sit, I got a report card that included pictures. Areana followed my instructions to a tee. After a week away, I came back to a relaxed and happy kitty! I will 100% reach out to Areana again when I make travel plans.”

We have used Juli several times for our cat when we go on our annual family vacation and she is fantastic! Her communication is excellent and her daily reports are thorough. We feel so confident in the care she provides for our cat. Bonus, she sends EXCELLENT photos!
Megan was an extremely reliable, sweet, and caring sitter for our pup. This was the second time Megan has watched Maya and we felt so at ease on vacation knowing she was so well taken care of. Plenty of notes, pics, and great communication with us throughout her time watching Maya once again. Highly recommend booking Megan!
Anna is great! She really helped me out when I needed short-notice care for my dog after starting a new job. My dog Ada has a lot of anxiety and is slow to trust people, but Anna is so patient and gentle with her. Ada has a few behavioral issues, so I need caregivers to follow specific instructions, all of which Anna followed perfectly. After Anna's first visit, I knew Ada was in good hands. :)
Emily was an amazing Rover for my dog, Roxy! She was kind and caring, kept me updated throughout her drop-ins, and made sure Roxy was well taken care of. Her communication was excellent, and I felt at ease knowing Roxy was in good hands. Highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
