1. Ann R.
“Ann did a great job watching our little guy. She communicated often and was helpful administering some medicine for him. Our dog is a bit anxious at first too, but Ann was very approachable and made a point to be extra attentive in those initial meetings”
2. Brooke S.
“Brooke was so sweet and communicative throughout the entire stay! She sent so many photos and I could tell my pup adored spending time with her. I would absolutely recommend booking Brooke to care for your fur baby!”
3. Natalie D.
“Natalie has been wonderful with my animals with every visit. I completely trust her to stay in my home with them. I come home to it being in place just as it was, pups so happy I don’t even think they missed me at all lol! She sends updated photos and little narratives of their time spent with her. I love Natalie and so do they. I’m very comfortable with her, this service as I have to use often for business travels and now I feel confident to use when traveling as I have a 15 year old, 9 year old and 3 1/2 year old dog. Mixed chihuahua/ min pin, Maltese, English Bulldog. I also have MS and have to keep a lot of medication around, personal items and I feel confident with Natalie there. She is top notch.”
4. Keilah V.
“This was our first time leaving our dog with someone who wasn’t family and we were very anxious about it, however, Keilah was amazing. She came over to our house and met Millie before we left to ensure a smooth transition. Additionally, she sent updates, pictures, and videos of our pup to reassure us everything was going great. I’m sure Millie will miss her! Cannot recommend enough, we will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you, Keilah!”
5. Riley F.
“Riley is so kind to our pup Mac! She sends pictures all day to give me a piece of mind about their day together. She keeps me updated all day long. She is so attentive and kind. Thank you Riley!!! Mac already misses you!”
6. Natalie L.
“Natalie was wonderful watching our dog in our home for a week! She provided regular updates and photos, was attentive to our pup and left the house clean and tidy. And she offered to bring in the mail and water our houseplants while we were gone. We would definitely hire Natalie again!”
7. D'Aujanae D.
“We felt wonderful leaving Savannah in her care! Our pup was very well taken care of and our house was in tip-top shape when we returned. Would hire again in a heartbeat!”
8. Alex H.
“Alex was phenomenal! I have two bigger dogs who can be and play kind of wild, and he kept in touch throughout the weekend with updates, pictures, and videos. I would definitely hire Alex again.”
9. Heather H.
“Heather was great and provided all the peace of mind we needed while we went to visit family. I let her know ahead of time that I was a bit anxious, and she was very punctual, communicative, and understanding. She sent regular updates, and was patient in letting our senior dog warm up to her while she stayed in our home. She was flexible and able to stay on top of our dog's needy meds/food schedule, and we came back to a happy, healthy pup. Our primary concern was our dog's care, but it was a bonus that Heather was a clean and respectful houseguest. We'd love to book with her again in the future :)”
10. Regan M.
“She is amazing!!! She took care of our cat and dog and also was an amazing house guest, left everything clean and tidy and overall it was a wonderful experience. I will be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
11. David B.
“David is a wonderful caregiver for both his own dogs, and for my cats. He loves his dogs Riley, Luke and Max. He has done an especially good job training Riley using positive reinforcement and obedience training. David has been a reliable cat sitter when I am out of town, taking care of my three cats. This includes feeding, giving medicine and enrichment. David would make a wonderful choice for your pet needs.”
12. Mariah B.
“Mariah was great! Sent regular updates, our pets were well cared for, and she left our home as clean as she found it! Will definitely ask for her help again.”
13. Gianna D.
“We spent a week away while Gianna stayed with Dolly. She was lovely, responsible, and asked great questions before we left. She left our house in great shape and Dolly seemed very happy and cared for when we got home.”
14. Ellie & Quinn M.
“We are very grateful to have found Ellie! She watched Moose for a few days while we were on vacation, and everything went great. Moose looked like he has having a great time in all of the photos and updates that were sent. We will definitely hire Ellie again and recommend her for house sitting!!”
15. Hannah K.
“Took great care of both dogs! She was able to get my nervous, shy dog comfortable with her. Loved the daily (or more) pictures! Both dogs were well cared for!”
16. Danielle D.
“I've known Danielle for a couple of years now and have always appreciated her as a friend and fellow animal lover! She has always demonstrated a cool head in times of crisis; an incredible amount of compassion for animals in her care; and strong communication skills. Whenever our friend leaves town, we tag team looking after her cats and ducks (not very easy in the winter!) and I feel comfortable with leaving my own animals in her care. I'm more than happy to recommend Danielle for all your animal care needs!”
17. Peyton Q.
“Peyton was great. Our dog is a senior with some particularities and Peyton was completely comfortable caring for him. We will definitely have Peyton come again!”
18. Traisaun L.
“Absolutely great - everyone was happy and relaxed when we got home, outdoor plants were watered, and our boy cat was not in a sulk. House was spotless, communication was great, I hate writing this review because everyone is going to book him up and we won't be able to.”
19. Peter V.
“Peter was great with our three dogs! We have two older dogs and one younger pup and he house/dog sat for us while we were gone for four nights. The dogs took right to him. He was great with communication and even sent some of the cutest pics of our pups to us while we were gone. I appreciated how much he genuinely cared for them and our house (cause it was just as clean as we left it) and would definitely recommend him!”
20. Michelle G.
“Michelle was incredibly easy to work with! She communicated well, came out to meet our dog prior to the stay, sent lots of photos, and left our home in great shape. We would happily book her again!”
