1. ray r.

“Ray was absolutely amazing with Harleigh!!!!!! Literally, the moment he walked in and met her she jumped on him and was showing affection to him. Harleigh was completely comfortable with him and Ray kept me updated throughout the entire time with pictures and videos. I will absolutely ask Ray to watch Harleigh again. The best part is that I just rescued Harleigh and it was her first time with a sitter and Ray just made her feel safe.”

“Loren is so wonderful with our dog while we are away. She is responsive and sends updates! We are able to enjoy some vacation knowing that our doggo is in good hands withe Loren!”


3. 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.”




4. April S.

“We’ve had April house-sit a few times and feel assured that our house and girls are well taken care of while we’re away. We also love getting updates and pictures that she sends us. I highly recommend April.”


5. Coleen T.

“Coleen has watched our pup a few times now and always goes above and beyond to make Saturn comfy and cared for, which in turn makes us feel comfy and cared for too while we’re away. Truly the best pet care we’ve experienced! Coleen will unequivocally be our first choice sitter for the indefinite future!”




6. Liz D.

“I came home to a happy dog and a house that may have been cleaner than when I left! Liz responded to my texts in a timely fashion and sent pix (once a phone issue was resolved) that showed a happy relaxed dog. Moose had developed IBD between our meet and greet and sitting and Liz reassured me she was up to the task. She even stayed a little later b/c our flight was delayed to make sure Moose was comfortable. Liz did an excellent job.”


7. Jillian L.

“Jillian watched our two dachshunds for a weekend and she was fantastic - friendly and easy to communicate with, very punctual. We are looking forward to having her watch them again!”


8. Emma I.

“Emma was amazing with our senior (but unruly) dog while we were on vacation. She stayed in our home and was an extremely respectful houseguest. She even took out the trash and started the laundry, which I never would have expected! She was a clear communicator and asked plenty of questions to make sure she understood the needs of our dog. She learned the ins and outs of our tricky pinch collar, and followed the very particular feeding schedule of our needy dog. She sent pics to keep me in the loop and it was such a relief to not have to worry about my baby being left alone while we traveled. Will definitely be using again!”


9. Jules R.

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST! Jules is the concept of above and beyond personified. She sent updates and pictures multiple times a day and immediately reached out when one of my pups arthritis was acting up. She showed my boys plenty of love, and exercised them frequently. She tidied up the house before leaving. It’s nice to have total peace when you go out of town knowing that your dog sitter is caring for your fur babies emotional well-being as well as physical. Thank you, Jules!”


10. Klaudia R.

“Klaudia is quite simply terrific. We have two large boxers who require a lot of attention Klaudia immediately bonded with them and took excellent care of our babies. She also left our house in pristine condition. We also appreciate the great communication and pictures. What a pleasure to deal with and we will absolutely have Klaudia back to watch our girls”


11. Andrea C.

“This was very pleasant experience. I loved getting pictures and knowing she was well taken care of. Andrea took her for walks and gave her allergy meds. I definitely will book her again for house sitting.”


12. Elijah M.

“Elijah was great with our dogs. 1 was a puppy who’s working on potty training and she didn’t mind the accidents! She asked all the appropriate questions about our pups. She even managed to get us in last minute and stayed overnight due to work hours! She was great!! Can’t wait to have her again :)”


13. Mary L.

“Mary was very responsive and trustworthy and did a good job watching my 2 French Bulldogs. I booked her for house-sitting and hope to utilize her services again.”


14. Jo D.

“This was my 1st time leaving my dog for a long weekend and I couldn’t have chosen a better caregiver for him. My Murphy is a rescue & has some anxiety issues but Jo handled him with patience, understanding and love. She tapped in to her knowledge of dogs and put both myself & Murphy at ease. She tried a few new toys/treats with him which he loved and sent me plenty of pics and videos of Murphy throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”


15. Pat A.
“Patrick has a love for animals that becomes evident when you watch him around his own pets. It doesn't surprise me that he would like to tend to other people's pets. He is a hard worker, committed to finishing tasks. I think walking, playing with and giving some lovin will make for a very happy dog and owner!!”


16. Joseph V.

“Joey took exceptional care of our two kitties- sending tons of videos daily and giving them lots of play and hang time. It was evident right away that our kitties weren’t stressed at all while we were gone and they had a great time with Joey. We would ask him back anytime!!”


17. Genesis D.
“Genesis cared for our two cats and one dog over a ten day period. This was the first time she housesat for our pets. We've had many people care for our pets over the years, but Genesis will always be my first call, going forward. She was fantastic. She came to our house before vacation to meet our pets, go over their schedules, and review paperwork. Her professionalism and obvious love for animals told me that our pets would be in great hands. I was right. Every day of our trip, she sent a detailed update with multiple photos which soon became one of the highlights of my day (the other people on our trip didn't hear a word from their pet sitters and were very jealous!!). She informed us ahead of time of a pre-scheduled conflict, and then went above and beyond to coordinate temporary care with a neighbor. I highly recommended Genesis for all pet care! She is very professional, highly communicative, trustworthy and kind. FIVE STARS!!!”


18. Stephanie V.

“Took a 10 day long trip and was blessed to feel completely at ease knowing my babies were well cared for. Stephanie sent messages and videos to update us on the stay so we were always in the loop. Definitely recommend!”


19. Nicholas L.
About: I have had 3 dogs, a bunny for 3 months(we took care of her), and now a cat I took in from the street. I am a genuine and loving caregiver. I communicate with animals as much as possible giving them joy and comfort. I believe animals are very intelligent and communication is key in figuring out their likes and dislikes and thus giving them a life of joy. I am constantly active and on the go. This makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I am available work in the winter. I work well on short notice and am able to pickup bookings during any time. I live in a house with and open backyard and a designated pet area. I live with two cats and two dogs. I am currently unable to dog watch at home.


20. Tetiana K.

“Tetiana is terrific. She is friendly, prompt, flexible and really caring towards pets. She kept us updated on all things, and that made us very very comfortable. She constantly shared pictures, updates, and made our pup very comfortable. We will be using Tetiana's services many times in the near and far future.”
