“Sarah gave great updates & pictures of our dogs when she came to check on them! She followed my directions perfectly and I felt 100% confident that the dogs were well cared for. They were happy and healthy when we returned :) We will definitely be using Sarah as our go-to dog sitter from now on!”


3. Amanda C.

“Amanda is fantastic! She took such good care of our two Great Pyrenees when we went away for the weekend and they absolutely LOVED her. She is dependable, quickly responsive, and I loved her updates! I had less anxiety going out of town knowing our pups were so well cared for with her. Will 100% use her services again!”


4. Kaylie T.

“Kaylee was the best sitter I could ask for. I'm very hesitant to let anyone watch my fur babies, but she put all my worries at ease. She did absolutely everything I asked and more. She will always be my go-to sitter now. I couldn't recommend her enough. She went out of her way to make me feel at ease and to reassure me that my babies were in good hands. Thank you Kaylie!”


5. Amelia S.

“These guys are great! I just used River for the first time and they took such great care of my two cats while I was gone. Will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to look after your pets.”


6. Natalia R.

“Natalia was amazing over the holiday week looking after my cat Bruce Lee Wayne. I couldn’t have had such an stress-free trip without her help. She played with him, administered his eye drops, took pics, and fed him every day on time. Would definitely recommend her! :)”


7. Paige N.

“I will always write a 5 star review for Paige! She’s taken care of our Bowie a few times now and there is no one we feel more comfortable leaving him with! She is extremely communicative, caring, and knowledgeable. Our bub can be nervous and anxious, especially when we are out of town, and she knows just how to give him support and love. Thank you again Paige 💕”


8. Sydney G.
“Sydney is great with animals! She is very sweet and caring with them. Treats other animals like they were her own! Does whatever she can to make them feel loved and cared for.”


9. Ashley B.

“Ashley was so accommodating for our pups! Initially we needed them walked but due to their anxiety I asked her to stay for a sitting and she was very understanding!”


10. Nicholas S.

“Nick was great with my dogs. My friend who usually helps drop in to let my dogs out was also out of town at the same time so I was scrambling trying to figure out someone and Nick came recommended. The daily report cards with pictures for his drop ins were comforting and my one dog actually didn’t have a problem going to the bathroom for him which can be rare. He was running a few minutes late one day and texted me to let me know (which is great - I understand that if I we book for 11 it will probably have A slight difference In either direction) but it was nice he gave me a heads up just in case. Will definitely be using Nick again”


11. Jordan

“Did a great job watching my cat, would book again!”


12. Renee O.


“Renee is so amazing with our wild wolf pack! We always look forward to her coming to hang out with our dogs when we head out of town or need to leave the house for an all day long event. She keeps us informed of how our dogs are doing, sends photos, and follows up with a message. We are so lucky to have found her and she is always our first choice when it comes to someone taking care is our dogs.”


13. Damian H.

“Damian was the best sitter we’ve ever had! Every day we were promptly updated about our cat’s day and what they were up to during the visit along with cute pictures! Our cat is pretty shy and warmed up to him quickly. She looked very happy to be taken care of by him. I would definitely recommend Damian for taking care of your pets :)”


14. Tiffany M.

“Excellent communication and keeping us informed. We could see our Rudy let his guard down with each visit and be his typical self. The pictures made our day. We will definitely will reach out for Tiffany's service again and recommend her to all our fellow dog owners.”


15. Katherine K.

“Katherine was phenomenal! She was very communicative about the cats, gave great feedback of her time with them, and answered any questions I had about the process. I will definitely be booking again!”
