1. Leyla A.

“My cat needs especial treatment due to his urinary issue. Leyla did a great job, feeding him on time with the exact instruction I asked her plus the medication. I recommend her to ALL cat's parents!”


2. Kimberly J.

“Kim was amazing! I’m a first time dog mom and was so nervous. She did great meeting Jake and really knew the best way to introduce herself to him! She gave updates and photos which helped ease my nerves. Highly highly recommend her to everyone and anyone!”




3. Jaclyn R.


“Jaclyn was amazing!!! She was happy to come and meet the pups before the actual sitting. Then during our vacation she followed all directions and was very active with updates (pic/vids). Absolutely recommend!”


4. Vanessa A.

“Vanessa was absolutely fantastic. She took great care of Sizzle (who is a high energy working dog), followed all instructions meticulously, and was super communicative. In addition, she made the very best of a tough situation - housesitting during the wildfires - and made sure Sizzle got the interaction and stimulation he needed even when it wasn't safe to be outdoors. It put my mind at ease to know that someone with good judgment was watching my dog and my house during an emergency, and I trusted her judgement to make decisions on what would happen if they had to evacuate. As a bonus, I also came back to a clean house (which has not always been the case with prior dogsitters!). I will absolutely have Vanessa back again, she was excellent.”


5. Julianne H.

“Julianne was a wonderful house and pet sitter! We highly recommend her. She was delightful, communicative and super responsible. She was an absolute pro with our little guys too! Left us feeling so relaxed while we were away on our trip and we loved the photo updates of our happy boys enjoying their time with her!”


6. Isabelle C.
“Isabelle is a great with dogs, is polite, patient, respectful, and responsible. She has been around dogs all her life and knows what it takes to properly take care of many dogs. My own dog is nervous of the world and Isabelle is one of the few people she really loves. She is a great with my dog and I trust her to take care of my dog. She is a very responsible, hardworking person that will give your dog a great walk that meets their abilities and needs.”


7. Grace P.

“Grace was fantastic! My elderly, medically fragile dog was in great shape when I got home. All the while, Grace sent photos and updates that eased my mind. It was a complicated regimen, and she got everything right! She was also very responsible about the key and other aspects as she stayed in my house. Couldn't be better, I highly recommend Grace!”


8. Tamara K.

“Tamara was such a wonderful dog sitter for our sweet boy, Wallace. She was very communicative and sent so many cute videos and photos!! She even made a trip to TJ Maxx for some blankets for our boy, to help alleve some of his anxiety. We appreciated her so much and would absolutely have her stay over again.”


9. Elin R.


“Elin was quickly responsive, a clear communicator from the moment I messaged, to setting up a meet and greet, through the time I was away while she cared for my pup — she sent photos, updates, and checked in with me regularly. My dog is reactive and requires someone who can be firm with him while remaining calm, and Elin had no trouble handling him. She stayed in my home with him, treated my space with respect, and even though she did not have to, she left the place cleaner than when she arrived. Elin was a delight to work with, I would recommend her to anyone, and I would love to book again. Thank you so much, Elin! –Angelisa & Loki”


10. Emily B.
“Emily is a great pet sitter and exceptional dog walker. She is flexible, responsible, caring and pays attention to details. I highly recommend her for any pet care needs.”


11. Molly S.


“molly is the absolute best pet sitter. she sends great updates often and makes me feel comfortable to leave my cat bc i know she’s in great hands.”


12. Samantha E.
“Samantha is a responsible, kind, caring, and reliable person and pet caregiver. As an anxious and highly particular pet owner, I always had peace of mind knowing my dog Juniper was under Samantha's care. Whenever she watched Juniper, Samantha not only took care of the necessities like nice long walks and feeding her on her regular feeding schedule, but she provided Juniper with so much love and care. She always checked in regularly and sent photos, and never hesitated to reach out of if she had any questions or any issues arose. I could tell Juniper always had a great time with Samantha because she was always so excited to see her! I would highly recommend hiring Samantha as your pet sitter!”


13. Eric W.
“Eric is a wonderful dog sitter. He has taken care of dogs for several years (German Shepherd, / Malamute / Husky / Rottweiler mix, Border Collie, and Coonhounds). He is firm, physically strong and compassionate. He has a knack for understanding dogs. He knows when they need a walk. He knows when they need their space. Eric is reliable, punctual and honest.”


14. Beray Z.
“She is a very caring sitter. She looked after too many dogs different breeds and sizes. I can see that she is a very professional sitter. She knows what she’s doing with animals. Also, with difficult puppies she is good at training. Her connection with all kind of animals are special and beautiful; since she loves animals so much and animals fell this love !!!”


15. Brenda C.
“Reliable, took care of my dog and cat, as booked a month plus in advance. Cleaned up after stay, which was above and beyond. A bit of a rough start as dog took a while to warm-up, but pets looked overall well when returning after a week, also got updates and pics, which was much appreciated.”


16. Alexis L.
“Alexis and his Wife Melissa have stayed with my dog multiple times, on time I was in vacations and they were absolutely great at taking care of my pug, they REALLY love dogs, so I knew they were the persons to take care of my dog when I was away, they took her for a walk twice a day, feed her just like I explained to them, and even Slept with her on the living room haha, I know all of this because they would FaceTime me a lot so I could rest assure that my pug was having a good time while I was away, I would trust my dog to them any time on the future after that week they took care of her, after that they have checked on her a couple of hours, and every time with a smile and happy because I let them stay with my dog, I fully recommend them to take care of other dogs since I trust my dog as much as I trust the other owners 🙌🏻”


17. Mary M.

“Mary was great! Super attentive and thoughtful. We felt very safe with our dogs and our home under her care. We would definitely book her again!”


18. Katerina V.
“Oooo Katarina is so wonderful! She has a calm vibe but also clearly active and ready to get out with Doobs, which was just he needed. It was clear he was was loved and cared for, taken out for walks, played with, and cuddled (with photos sent). Will be reaching out to her again to come take care of Doobie when I’m out of town.”


19. Larysa T.
“Larysa is a very nice, animal-loving person. I have known her for several years, and while she does have a cute little cat, she has watched my 75 Lb., high-energy Labrador Retriever Georgia on occasion when I have been out of town. She has a gentle nature but knows when to reign in bad behavior. Larysa is extremely trustworthy, well-organized, responsible, and someone I would absolutely trust with my dog.”


20. Nat R.

“Loved having Nat watch our pup. She was so patient and welcoming with our dog. She is the best of the best! Will use all the time!”
