“My girl tends to be very nervous and scared around new people and environments and she has never been left with anyone before so of course I was worried with how everything would go. Cyndi made my dog feel so at ease and sent me so many updates my girl was right at home within an hour. I was so happy! Bailey will be back soon!”
“We love having Matt take over my sweet girl while we are out of town. He always does a great job!! Absolutely love all the pictures and updates - thank you Matt!!”
“Sarah was great! She took extra efforts to learn insulin administration to take care of our kitty while we were away. She gave regular updates and sent pictures while Lilah was there. I highly recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs!”
“My fur-child Jetson had a great 4 day stay at Julie"s place. She kept my mind at ease by sending lots of updates and pictures while he was in her care. She also was great at making sure he stayed on his medication and letting me know exactly how she was handling his anxiety and health concerns. I was so comfortable with her care of him and will be sure to book her again in the future!”
“It was our first time leaving our dog Lucy with Michelle and Lucy had a wonderful time and Michelle took great care of of her. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures on how Lucy was doing. We were gone for a week and I felt comfortable and confident leaving Lucy in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
“Amber was great! Highly recommend if you need to need her services. She communicated great and my dog chunk seemed to have a good time. Will try and use her again for our next trip.”
“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”
“Alexandra boarded our 14 year old super senior pug and she did really well. She used to go to a large boarding facility and when she came home she was very out of sorts and unsettled. Diamond came right back home and settled right back in so it seems that she was happy while we were gone. Alexandra was super responsive and sent daily updates. Overall it was a great experience for us and apparently for her as well :)”
“Roscoe had the best time playing with friends. He was so well taken care of. I received so many pictures and videos. Raye is awesome and Roscoe was in great hands.”
“Danielle was awesome! She accommodated me pretty last minute when travel plans changed and made it super easy to schedule a meet and greet. Her dogs were well-behaved and played great with my dog. She was super communicative while I was gone and accommodating with pickup. Amazing sitter and I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Hilary was great with Venus! Her communication was also second to none! I'm glad we found each other because our doggy will be going back! Highly recommend leaving your dog with Hilary - you will not be disappointed!”
“Nicole kept us up to date with pictures and letting us know Maui was comfortable and at peace. We loved how she worked with us on our return and was especially ready when we arrived. Thank you again Nicole, Maui really enjoyed you this weekend!”
“Jeffrey was fantastic with my dog! He sent me lots of updates and pictures while I was away, so I was always confident that Malcolm was being well taken care of. I also appreciated that Jeffrey was happy to take Malcolm on good walks and also cuddle with him when they were just hanging out. I highly recommend this Rover!”
“Kat was absolutely amazing with my highly reactive and mildly difficult girl! I gave her a heads up with Bindi’s behaviors and she assured me everything would would be alright. When I dropped Bindi off, Kat even let me in to see how my pup interacts with hers and her pups are absolutely wonderful with others! When I come back to Tuscon I will definitely be reaching out!”
“Donetta is simply amazing. She’s my only dog sitter turned friend in the RVA. She takes care of my fur baby, Blu as if she’s her own. Blu gets excited as soon as we pull up to her home. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would!”
“Thank you so much to Le’Quitta and her family for taking such great care of Boss ☺️ She kept me updated with pictures and communicated well. Will definitely be rebooking! We knew he had a good time when he slept the majority of the day when we got him home❤️ Thanks again!!!”

Kyla is a true gem! She cared for our pup KoKo for 12 days—his very first time away from us—and we couldn’t have asked for a more loving, attentive sitter. She helped him make new furry friends, took him on fun and stimulating walks, and even spent quiet time with him by the pool. Her gentle care and light training gave KoKo confidence and joy. When we picked him up, we could tell he’d had a blast and felt safe. Kyla’s home became a peaceful second home for our little guy. No wonder she’s a Star Sitter—we see why! Truly looking forward to using her services again and again!
Zahra pampered my twin shih-tzus for a whole week. My skittish baby girl took to Zahra immediately. The needy boy was a little apprehensive at first, but Zahra was able to calm him down shortly. Zahra kept me updated periodically on the well-being of my babies. Zahra showered the twins with affection. One thing stood out to me the most is that Zahra kept my twins' eyes super clean. Most good caregivers would keep your dogs body and legs clean but would miss the eyes. Not one particle of sleep or gunk on my two white shit-tzus' eyes, face, or body. Zahra is cheerful and accommodating. Scheduling drop off and pick-up was a breeze. I highly recommend Zahra. I would 100% use her again. Zahra is not just a pet sitter. She is more like a close family member watching your young kids while you are away.
Matt was such an amazing sitter. He gave me daily updates and sent pics of how much fun my little Odessa was doing. He knew that I haven't boarded her before so he was extra attentive and kind which immediately eased my worries. I can't wait to book with Matt again!
Ethel is our favorite dog sitter for our pup when we go on trips and can’t bring him along. She is very kind and attentive with him, giving him lots of love and pets and being sure to keep us updated with lots of pictures. Our dog enjoys getting to spend time with other dogs when he stays with Ethel. It’s great for his socialization and allows him lots of time to play and have fun while we are out of town. Ethel is great!! Highly recommend!
Michaela is an amazing and dedicated dog sitter! She’s very personable and professional as well. She provided us regular updates and photos of our two pups, Rodger and Bailey. She accommodated our dog who has known back/neck issues and was patient with our other dog who is reactive. We highly recommend her to anyone else! :)
We had a great experience with our recent pet sitter, who watched our two dogs, Griffin and Max, while we were away. From our first communication, they were responsive and kind. When we got back, the dogs were relaxed and content. We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!
Lila was exceptional with care and communication for our older dog while we were away. She went above and beyond when he wasn't feeling well and was having extended issues, and we were relieved to come back to a happy, recovering doggo. Highly recommend Lila as a friendly, responsive, compassionate, and responsible pet sitter!
Amber and Jason took such amazing care of our little puppy. It was the first time we had left her with anyone, and she’s tiny, but they did everything to be accommodating and safe with her. They also sent lots of videos, pictures. and updates. I was able to get away and unplug for a much-needed relaxing weekend. Thanks a million!
