“I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received while I was away. Leyla was absolutely fantastic — not only did she feed them on time and keep their litter boxes spotless, but she also made sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting regular photo and video updates, which really helped ease my mind and showed just how happy and comfortable my cats were. It was clear they were in great hands! My house was exactly as I left it — clean, tidy, and well looked after. It was such a relief to return home to calm, content kitties and everything in perfect order. Highly recommend Leyla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Will definitely book again!”

“I cannot recommend Carolina enough for pet sitting and drop-in visits! They took such incredible care of both my cat and dog while I was away. My dog instantly loved her, he got his walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. And my cat, who’s usually a bit of a diva, actually came out to say hi (a rare honor!). I appreciated the photo updates, the attention to detail, and how clearly she love animals. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my pets were in such loving and reliable hands. Thank you so much!”
Hilda G.
“Hilda was the best doggy sitter for my 3 yr old boxer . I had her take care of my dog while I was away on a 5 day vacation. She sent me daily pictures of my dog and sent pictures of her playing and going for walks to ensure me that my dog was in great hands :) I really appreciated the photos so much because I missed my nami girl. If I could describe the care she provided I’d say… communitative, responsible, and loving for dogs 😁”

Arthur & Hayley O.
“Arthur has been absolutely amazing with my dog, who is very nervous, shy, and slow to trust humans. She requires medication twice a day and needs special attention when she's around other dogs, as she can sometimes get scared and react defensively. Despite these challenges, Arthur has shown nothing but patience, understanding, and genuine care. He creates a calm and structured environment that helps my dog feel safe. She even gets to enjoy playtime with other dogs, regular walks, and has access to a spacious yard where she can relax at her own pace. The doggy door lets her come and go inside as she pleases, which gives her a sense of control and comfort. Inside the house is cool and cozy thanks to the air conditioning, and dogs are welcome on the furniture—something my pup really appreciates. It truly feels like a second home for her, which is not something I ever expected given how anxious she usually is. I can’t recommend Arthur enough, especially for anyone with a dog that needs a little extra attention and understanding. He’s thoughtful, reliable, and clearly loves what he does.”

Mario V.
“Mario is great with animals! He has taken care of my cat and dog for a handful of weekends and I feel safe leaving them with Mario. I’ve come home to see my cat sleeping on his lap which makes me so jealous because she doesn’t do that often with me but it’s cute to see how acquainted she’s gotten with him. I love that he’s also very playful with my husky and I’m very sure my pets love when he comes to take care of them!”
Chelcie Ferreira De A.
“Chelcie is AMAZING with pets. He loves animals so much, he has four cats of his own and a dog. One of his cats came from an abusive past, and Chelcie took her in and rehabilitated her to be such a trusting and friendly cat. He also took in a dog with a range of healthcare issues, and Chelcie has been so patient with the dog’s needs. I would trust him with my pets in a heartbeat. He’s your go to guy!”

Uriel T.
“Uriel is truly one of the best pet caregivers I’ve ever met. From the moment I handed over my dogs, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in loving and capable hands. He treated them like family, making sure they were well fed, exercised, and given tons of affection. He even updated me regularly with photos and little notes about how they were doing, which really meant a lot. You can tell Uriel genuinely loves animals and takes his responsibility seriously. My dogs came back happy, healthy, and calm, which says everything. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to care for them the way he does. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive, Uriel is your guy!”
