“Connie was great with my little man. She went to my house on her lunches to be with him. Sent me pictures and videos. I could tell he was always having fun and being well cared for. I will definitely have her watch him again.”


8. William H.

“Alex (William) was fantastic! My dogs immediately took to Alex’s calm and friendly demeanor and seemed to really like him. I was gone for 10 days and Alex sent pictures every day - usually one of each dog, twice a day, and that was really comforting for me to see how well they were doing. Alex also left the house better than he found! Alex is simply the best! You can’t go wrong with him to care for your pets and home.”


9. Mackenzie A.

“Mackenzie was an absolute star dogsitter! She sent multiple updates and photos every day so I never had to worry about a thing, and when one of my pups needed an urgent prescription picked up, she handled it quickly and without issue. You can tell she really cares about the animals, and she truly goes the extra mile in every sense. I would GLADLY have her watch my dogs again!”




10. Mark & Elizabeth Y.

“Mark was so great w my pets!!! He followed the schedule to a T and made sure to pass along plenty of updates. I always get nervous about letting people into my home, but Mark proved to be nothing but professional and responsible! I’ll definitely be seeking him out again soon!”


11. Scott & Samantha H.

“Scott and Samantha are our go to sitters for our Italian Greyhound, Quincy! We have used them multiple times, and always come home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Quincy has pretty bad separation anxiety, but Scott and Samantha give him extra attention, care, and snuggles. We highly recommend them to help with any of your pets’ needs!”


12. Dakota B.

“Dakota was great with my pup. Responsive, helpful, and caring!”


13. Jess A.

“Jess is a wonderful sitter and does a great job caring for our dog, cat and bird while we're away, as well as looking after the house. Our fur babies are always so happy relaxed after she comes to stay!”


14. Rebecca R.

“Rebecca was wonderful with our Yorkie, Hoagie. She watched him in our home over the New Year holiday. We especially liked her detailed daily updates and photos. The messages reassured us that Hoagie was happy while we were away and confirmed that he was adjusting to Rebecca as a trusted caregiver.”


15. Chelsea D.

“Chelsea is fantastic. She was so good with my knucklehead for the time she spent here. She was quite empathetic and caring for my doggo and a great caretaker for the house. 10/10 would certainly recommend.”


16. Chloe A.
“Chloe is amazing at caring for herself and her pets, and is so gentle with other's pets. She is a pet lover through and through and spoils every pet she comes across with as much as she can. When she first met my cat, I warned her he didn't like strangers and would probably run away as soon as he sniffed her. Instead, he warmed right up to her. Chloe is also great at managing stressful situations and has been there for me countless times. She makes sure she has everything figured out and a solution for any situation that can go awry. She is a problem-solver, fierce, and full of love. I believe that she's great for taking care of your pets 100%!!”


17. Lillian W.

“Lilly stayed with our 160 lb. pup for 3 nights and did a great job sticking to his routine which includes pills 2x a day, meals, walks, and giving specific treats at specific times. She sent photos of him every day, which helped put me at ease. I was thrilled to find Lilly as she has extensive vet experience, and our pup is prone to seizures. Fortunately, he had no episodes while we were away, so she did a great job keeping his anxiety levels down. I definitely recommend Lilly and will be contacting her again.”




18. Abby K.


“Abby was an excellent dog sitter! She provided me lots of picture updates of what my dogs were up to. She was easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Abby for your pet sitting needs.”


19. Monica V.

“Monica is the best!! I have two Senior Chihuahuas that are both on medication and special food. She has taken the time to earn their trust and takes wonderful care of them and not just physically. She considered each dogs quirks and fears and has made them both very happy dogs when I’m away. I’ve gotten so much more freedom now because of her. She is Amazing!!”


20. Kylie B.
“I can’t recommend Kylie enough as a pet sitter! From the moment we met, her genuine love for animals was clear. She took the time to get to know my Louies personality, routine, and quirks—and treated him like her own. Whether it was daily walks, playtime, or just cuddles on the couch, I knew my pup was in great hands. Kylie is responsible, attentive, and always goes the extra mile. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she not only has experience, but also a true gift for working with pets. I’m so grateful to have found her, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my fur baby!”
