1. Andrew N.


“Andrew stayed in our home for a week He took good care of the litter boxes snd was respectful of the space. His very laid back, “chill” demeanor was perfect for our 2 cats. Andrew was very also observant and in tune with their needs and moods. He contacted me on a regular basis and sent me photos of his little charges. We intend to use his services again and highly recommended him to anyone in need of a cat sitter.”


2. Scott J.

“Scott took such great care of our two pups when we were out of town. We are so grateful we were able to book his services at the last minute. We got consistent updates on how our pups were doing while we were gone and we could tell they were nice and relaxed and were able to spend a lot of their time outside. We really hope to book his services again soon!”




3. Liz D.

“Liz took great care of our dog, Ruby, over a long weekend. We got regular photo and message updates and it looked like everyone had a great time. Ruby loved snuggling with Liz all weekend! We would definitely recommend Liz if you need a friendly, professional, experienced sitter!”


4. Coty C.

“We have two large, high maintenance dogs and one is a puppy with some health concerns. Coty took great care of them! She even gave them their meds and special diets and all! We are going away again in a few weeks for 5 days and I'm so glad we can rely on Coty!”

“Great with my fur baby 😊”


6. Arielle A.


“Wow! Arielle was absolutely incredible with our pups! From the moment she walked in and met them to the moment we arrived home we could tell our boys loved her and they were equally as loved! They had meds and specially diets needed and she was spot on. Not to mention our house was perfect upon returning. We will definitely request her again. You will not go wrong with her taking care of your furry loved ones!!!”




7. Leah C.

“Leah was wonderful! She communicated through out the day and even sent pictures. I have a special needs dog who needed additional care and Leah made sure she was taken care of. I will be hiring Leah again!”


8. Silvia S.


“We could not have been happier with Silvia! She took great care of our dog and did not require a lot of instruction; it is clear that she is experienced and comfortable around dogs. She was good at communicating with us and sent us pictures and videos. She left our place in perfect condition. We highly recommend Silvia.”


9. Joseph V.

“Joey took great care of my pup Angus. He updated me frequently while I was away. Felt very comfortable with him and will definitely book him again.”


10. Emily G.

“Emily is a very trustworthy sitter who took great care of my Effy. She is a timely communicator and took down a detailed account of her time with my pet (as Effy is a struggling with a health issue), which I greatly appreciated. On time, and flexible.”




11. Donna C.


“Donna is absolutely the best! She is has watched our dog and cat with loving care several times. She makes leaving our pets for vacation worry free!”


12. Jasmin R.
“I highly recommend Jasmin as a pet caregiver without hesitation. I knew my pets were in safe hands with her compassion and her attentiveness. Give Jasmin a chance, I promise you won’t regret. I love my furry babies and I would never recommend someone I don’t trust myself.”


13. Paige F.


“Paige was outstanding. Her calm demeanor made our skittish dog extremely comfortable. She was great with communication, sending lots of pix of them snuggling. We absolutely would re-book her again.”


14. Bryana P.
“Bryana watched our yorkie, guinea pig, and cat when we went to Italy last year and did a fantastic job! Our yorkie is a little shy with new people but absolutely loved Brie and it was so nice to receive photo updates of the animals getting play time when we missed them while traveling abroad!”


15. Annette L.

“Annette treated my kitties so well! When I came home they were calm and relaxed and acted like we hadn’t even left!”


16. Ella V.

“We recently used Ella for the first time. During her stay our dog needed immediate care due to a bladder stone blocking his urinary tract. Ella did a great job recognizing the signs, communicating with me, and taking our dog to the ER. We are lucky she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure he received the care he needed.”


17. Natalie C.


“Natalie watched our 2 dogs while we were out of town and was wonderful. We have a shy chihuahua and a special needs bulldog so they are a handful/aren’t the most fun for other people to watch. Natalie did great with them, was very communicative which made us feel very at ease (we were nervous going into it) and sent us pictures every day. It’s the first time we’ve gone out of town and come home to our bulldog not being a total disaster and needing to go to the vet immediately which was awesome!”


18. Grace R.


“Very sweet and reliable! Our dog is very high energy and I feel like she really “got” him lol. We came back to a happy puppy and a nice clean house.”


19. Amelia S.
“Amelia was an absolute lifesaver when she watched my senior dog Sandy for a week while I was on vacation. She took exceptional care of my aging pup, making sure Sandy got her medications on time, took her on gentle walks suited to her energy level, and gave her lots of love and attention. Amelia sent me daily updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. Sandy seemed happy and well-cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Amelia for anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter, especially for senior dogs with special needs.”


20. Lishan R.
About: Growing up, I had a family dog where I would help take care of by feeding and going on walks. I also loved playing with dogs and snuggling with them. I’m currently looking for a job so I’m generally available most weekday afternoons and evenings. I am also available on the weekends to do overnights. When taking care of pets in clients’ homes I make sure to follow the pet’s established routine to make them more comfortable. I also try to do a visit prior to make sure we are compatible.
