“We and our pets are so glad we found Alexio to fill our pet-sitting needs. We're pretty fussy about who takes care of our dog and two cats, and so we are pleased to see how comfortable they were with Alexio. He is very attentive to details and makes clear that he is committed to doing the best possible job of house-sitting. He went above and beyond our expectations in working with our dog and using his own knowledge and intuition to improve our dogs behavior. We definitely will be using Alexio in the future and will not hesitate to recommend him to others. Rich and Rebekah”


“Kristin was a wonderful cat sitter who took great care of my two kitties while I was away. She was conscientious and communicative, sending updates and photos keeping me well informed of everything happening back home. Highly recommended!”

“Ash is GREAT with our pretty demanding standard poodle- i'd recommend Ash 100% except im greedy and i want to make sure they're always available for us when needed!!”


“Priya watched my very sick yet hyper puppy and my active 3 year old Aussie while I worked long shifts one weekend She made me feel so confident that my dogs were in good hands. They can be rather crazy and that didn't scare her off at all! Such a blessing!”

“Nancy is an ideal sitter. She was attentive to care instructions and comes with experience around fully trained service animals- a big must for me. At the meet and greet she took notes and instantly hit it off with my furry baby. Nancy is must if you want safe, fun and compassionate company for your pet. I appreciated the high level professionalism and occasional photo updates. Would highly recommend.”

“Lauren took excellent care of our energetic dog. She was patient with our detailed instructions and kept in good touch while we were gone. We will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Bena did a fantastic job taking care of our very energetic pup. Bena communicated well, was on time, and was very comfortable with our dog. We would definitely like to book Bena again.”

“Alanna was spectacular. She was so kind and easy to work with. Best of all our dogs seemed really happy while we were away and had absolutely no indication of separation anxiety at all!”


“Kayte was such a responsible and reliable sitter. She was very knowledgeable and skilled in being able to discipline and bond with Cooper. I felt so comfortable while I was traveling in Europe - so far away. I was truly able to relax and know that Cooper was being well cared for and loved. Thank you Kayte, Rene Carew”

“Holy moly, Nieves is awesome! From the meet and greet, through our trip, to our return, she provided first class service. She communicates so well, lots of fun updates and pics and cute collages of my pet, and post it notes about her last day before she left. She followed our care document to a T and took the best care of Daisy. I highly recommend and will be booking her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of my family and friends dogs and cats. They have relied on me to feed, water, walk and occasionally give oral medication. I’m currently working up to 30 hours (4 days a week) over the summer while getting my masters at Smith College. I cannot afford to have a dog or cat of my own. I would love to be able give love to other peoples pets, it would be the best part of my day! I will make sure to take safety measures that are given/told to me very seriously. My #1 priority would be the safety of your pet!

“It was so nice to know that Rosie and our home were in capable and caring hands while we were away on vacation. Rosie, our home, and our gardens were in great shape when we returned. We'll definitely be looking to Molly again next time we need a dogsitter!”

“Thank you, Erica, for asking important questions, approaching our rescued pup with appropriate gentle moves, finding his comfort level, taking the initiative, communicating clearly with thousand-word photos, and leaving our home cleaner than we left it. You gave us peace of mind--priceless--and we are grateful to you.”

Alexis was the best! Our cat was relaxed and happy when we got home. All of the plants were in good condition (and there were a lot of them). The house was clean and neat. None of the directions we left about our old house threw her off her game. Also, Alexis is great about communication: just enough pet fotos and check ins. I would definitely ask her to come back and I recommend her to others.
Holy moly, Nieves is awesome! From the meet and greet, through our trip, to our return, she provided first class service. She communicates so well, lots of fun updates and pics and cute collages of my pet, and post it notes about her last day before she left. She followed our care document to a T and took the best care of Daisy. I highly recommend and will be booking her again!

Kathryn is a fantastic cat sitter. She is very responsible and communicative. She took great care of the cats and was attentive to the cats' individual needs. She was very conscientious about monitoring my cat who was having a health issue. She was also able to win over my other cat who does not tend to like strangers, which is no small feat. She is clearly caring, compassionate and attuned to cats' needs. She left the house in perfect condition. She demonstrated excellent problem-solving when there was a problem getting into my place. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Julia is such a sweet, kind, compassionate, patient, smart, rockstar! We adopted a large mix breed 3yr old dog, and she was excellent with keeping up his training during the overnight we were gone! He was a happy dog! She played with him a bunch, and long walks. She also kept our home very tidy! We are looking forward to supporting Julia’s business as much as possible! HIGHLY recommend!

Our two large, adolescent pups were in such great hands the 3 days and 2 nights that Anna was at our house taking care of them. One of them is a recent rescue and a bit reactive to new dogs, so Anna did a great job of taking them on separate walks. We received plenty of updates and were happy to hear that our dogs were so at ease around Anna! If we go out of town again and need a sitter for Poppy and Bramble, we definitely will reach out to Anna again!

Cassandra was fantastic. She clearly fell in love with my cat, and went above and beyond taking care of her. I would hire her again in a minute. She is very neat and tidy, she left the place in better shape than it was when I left it to her.She communicates well, she takes instruction, she ask questions, and, by the end, my cat clearly had made Cassandra a part of her posse.

Morgan did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Cub and parrot Rainbow while we were away. She was very kind and reassuring with Cub who has issues with anxiety, especially around other dogs and large moving vehicles. Even though parrot care was new to her, she succeeded in charming Rainbow and even endured his loud discussion of all things avian! Morgan also took care of our mail, dealt with a smoke alarm going off, kept us updated, and cleaned before she departed.
