We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care and would definitely recommend her and book her again.”

“Carol was INCREDIBLE! She took such wonderful care of my dog Harper, and was great (and creative!) with her updates. She was also an incredible houseguest, leaving my place better than she found it. I would recommend her care to anyone and look forward to her taking care of Harper again soon!”

9. Mark N.

“Mark always goes above and beyond, leaving your pup (and place) better than he found it. He’s a natural when it comes to dogs. Not only does he provide ample care for your pup, he encourages good behaviors and reinforces training. He will always be my go-to man for dog sitting, as both my dog and I adore him. Thanks for all you do Mark!”

11. Lindsey W.

“Lindsey was amazing over a full weeklong stay with my crazy band of pets. She provided excellent care for my two big velcro dogs with anxiety and two cats (one of which requires a daily pill and additional care). Great, regular communication with pictures and left the pets and house in better shape than when we left! Would definitely recommend.”

14. Dylan B.

“We recently had the pleasure of hiring Dylan to take care of our beloved cats, Luna and Tiger, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first meeting, Dylan displayed a genuine love for animals and a professional attitude that put us at ease. Throughout the entire duration of our two weeks away, Dylan provided regular updates, including photos and detailed messages about Luna and Tiger's activities and well-being. It was clear that she took the time to get to know their individual personalities and needs. Luna, who is our resident diva, quickly warmed up to Dylan, and Tiger, the shy fraidy cat, came out of his shell for scratches and study sessions across from her. We came home to two very happy and well-cared-for cats. The litter box was clean, their food and water bowls were full, and the house was exactly as we left it. Dylan even went above and beyond by watering our plants and bringing in the mail. Many days Dylan hung out for quite a while with the cats, and they got to help her study and maybe provide some distraction as well! She also texted about miscellaneous household issues, checking in and letting us know key info at critical times… She was truly fantastic. We highly recommend Dylan to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate cat and house sitter. She made our time away stress-free, knowing Luna and Tiger were in such good hands. We will definitely be booking Dylan again for our future trips!”


15. Julia N.

“Julia was fantastic! She took great care of our two dogs and two cats for a week - no small feat considering our beagles have separation anxiety and other behavioral issues. Julia has a warm, calm energy and the dogs took to her right away. She’s a great communicator and sent text updates and pics every day. We had complete peace of mind for the entire week.”


16. Carolina R.

“Carolina was great. She sent me pictures of my dog several times a day and let us know that everything was ok. It made the trip that much more enjoyable to not have to worry about our baby back at home.”


17. Angela P.

“Angela was amazing with our puppy. He had a great time with her. Very responsive and gave updates while we were gone. Definitely would book again!”




18. Amber H.


“Bandit gets so excited when I tell him Amber is watching him! Amber is very respectful and considerate when staying in my home. She sends updates on Bandit and recently helped me accommodate his food sensitivity. Highly recommend!!”


19. Lily R.

“Lily was an amazing pet sitter at our house w Pickles. First time using Rover and Lily was very communicative and always available to sent pictures or updates. Felt great knowing our dog was well tended on our trip, and will definitely use her again”


20. Caroline F.

“I wish I could give Caroline more than five stars to convey how wonderful she is. She just house-sat for me and my husband for five days when we went out of town for our wedding. This was the first time I have ever left my dogs with someone other than a family member. I was nervous because my pups have some particular needs, and I am pretty overprotective of them. I’ve had a few incidents in the past where they’ve gotten out and I’ve had to chase them, leaving me feeling traumatized and reluctant to leave them for any extended period of time. But I felt like I hit the jackpot finding Caroline. She truly went above and beyond to ensure my dogs’ safety and happiness while I was away and gave them lot of love and attention. Caroline knew I was nervous and sent me regular pictures and updates to reassure me while I was away. She also took amazing care of our home. It was such an great feeling to be able to properly celebrate my wedding knowing my dogs were safe, healthy, and happy in the care of a wonderful person. After Caroline left, my dog Sammy cried and looked all over the house for her! I give her 5 million stars and will absolutely be booking with Caroline again if she’ll have us :)”
