“Jessica was great with my 3 crazy pups. She showed patience and eventually won them over and took great care of them while we were out of town. She respected my home like it was her own and communicated extremely well throughout our absence. I felt she genuinely cared so much about my furbabies that I already rebooked her for my upcoming trip out of town.. thank you Jessica for making our family feel at ease.”
“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Chris was awesome! Our dogs took right to her and the house looked great! She was comfortable when meeting our boisterous dogs and very punctual. She also sends great pics! We will definitely continue booking with Chris!”
“She was the best. Very communicative and flexible. We have a large group of pets and she handled it all very well. We could not be more appreciative of the job she did. Leaving our pets with someone can be stressful but I didn't worry a bit with leaving them with her.”
“Abby was great with Harry! She showed real interest in getting to know Harry before her pet sitting even started, asking if we had and special instructions (which we do 😅). We sent the whole pet sitting guide we've created over his life so far and she read it! She was right on time, took Harry for a walk, played with him, and let him relax like he usually does during the day. She was so sweet with him and Harry had a great day with Abby! We also got so many fun pics and vids throughout their day together 😆”
“Kalyn was a wonderful dog/house sitter for our two Ausiedoodles while we were out of town. She’s great with communication, dependability and animal behavior/handling. We have a dog with special needs and she was respectful and thoughtful with his specific care instructions. I look forward to Kayln watching our dogs and house again.”
“Claudia took amazing care of our pets and home while we were away for a long weekend -- especially our two seniors (13 year old German Shepherd and 23 year old cat), who came with a list of medication needs. Respectful of our property, prompt over the messaging app, and took thorough notes during the meet & greet. We'll definitely book her again!”
“Mikayla did a spectacular job taking care of Twyla! In our initial meet up she instilled in us a sense of calmness by sharing her experience with pets and asking all the necessary questions to ensure that she was doing a great job and was ready to take care of Twyla. We came back to a very happy Twyla!”
“Mindy took great care of our pups, AND tolerated me while our schedule kept changing :) Great communicator... even showed up early so we could beat rush hour traffic on the way out of town Would definitely book her again!”
“Allison has been amazing with my elderly dog. We have used her services for dog walking as well as dog sitting at my home. She is easy to communicate with, consistent, and reliable. Allison did a great job taking care of my dog that is older and set in her ways. I felt confident having Allison stay at my home while I was away and loved receiving photo and message updates. 10/10 I will definitely book again and recommend Allison to friends.”
“She took amazing care of my cat Chico while we were away. He’s very spoiled and usually not friendly, but he became so comfortable and bonded with her right away. That says everything. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely rebook her—highly recommend!”
“Kyli was fantastic! Very communicative and professional. She was great with our overly friendly golden retriever and two cats that can often times be reclusive. Cats warmed right up to her and we got many photo updates. Highly recommend!”
“Zachariah goes above and beyond for our puppies! He asks all the right questions and sent us prompt updates and photos of puppies so we ALWAYS had assurance that our puppies were doing well! He is so kind and courteous, thoughtful and respectful to our furry family and his love of animals is VERY clear! We’ll be depending on Zach for our puppy’s care in the future!!!!”
“Kira was an amazing dog sitter! One of our dogs has separation anxiety, and Kira did a great job keeping her calm and cared for. They also asked a lot of great questions to make sure they had all of the information they needed about our dogs while we were gone. They sent us pictures of the dogs and gave status updates while we were gone which was really appreciated! They were very flexible with time too, I was able to book them with just a few days notice, and had to stay out later than expected which was no problem for them. Overall it was a great experience, our pups seemed very happy. Thanks Kira! <3”
“Juan stepped into provide home care for Brodie, our King Charles. The service was excellent, especially considering this occurred during the recent period of challenging weather and flooding conditions. Juan was great at keeping me updated and sending photos. He also managed a seamless handover to a friend who took over Brodie’s care for the remainder of my time abroad. I’m happy to recommend him.”
“Josh is excellent! He house sat for our mini farm...Astro (dog), Luna (cat), gecko and hamster while we were on vacation! I would highly recommend him to others, thanks Josh!”
“Alina was the perfect fit for our family. The two dogs immediately felt safe and comfortable with her. Her spirt is kind and the like all dogs they knew she was loves animals. She took them for their regular walks and took them on an adventure to the park. The biggest testimony to her pets sitting is that the dogs were calm, happy, and napping after she left. She has the vibe!”

We couldn't be happier with our experience! Our elderly dog has some vision and hearing challenges, so finding someone we truly trust with him isn't easy — but she was absolutely wonderful with him. She took exceptional care of him, was easy to communicate with, and we felt completely at ease having her stay in our home. We'd highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with senior or special-needs pets. We'll definitely be booking again!
We highly recommend Sonoma. She is a great commutator. She sent artistic pictures of our dog multiple times a day, which was a delight. Our dog was so calm and happy when we returned. I felt comfortable and confident that our dog was in the best of company while we were away.
Leaving my cat and dog with Angela is the next best thing to personally being with them myself. She is attentive, caring, professional, and thorough. Angela spends quality time with my dog and cat. She always leaves our home spotless. My fur family and I are grateful when we have an opportunity to have Angela in our home.
