“Wow! What a phenomenal sitter. We were nervous about our Bengal kittens having a sitter for the first time but Connie put us at ease immediately and we were happy to have them with her our entire trip. We will be sure to contact her again for any future pet sitting needs. A+++ 🥰! Thanks again, Connie! Cielo and Nube are going to miss you!”

4. Jamie S.
“Jamie was great! She was prompt at communicating in our booking process and arrived on time to take care of our Murphy. Would recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a sitter!”
5. Jo A.
“Jo provided us plenty of updates, photos and videos of our dog Ringo while we were away for the weekend. She took such good care of him, and we were blown away by her attention to our boy. He is a pretty high energy dog and she definitely helped him keep his indoor zoomies at bay by taking him on long walks. We came home and he was so content, when usually he is worked up and anxious due to our absence. We can tell he loved Jo, and we hope Ringo will get to enjoy her company again soon!”
6. Maggie L.

9. Nicole P.
“Nicole is amazing! We lost one of our cats just days before our trip leaving her sister behind. She was able to add some more days and kept Willow comfortable during a time of grief and stress along with eye drops for her. We are so greatful to have had her as our sitter. I was even under a lot of stress and anxiety but she was absolutely amazing the whole way through. Thank you Nicole!”
10. Kevin W.

13. Alicia A.
“Alicia is wonderful! My little old dog loves her, and she managed to deal with my cat who hates everyone. She sent photos and regular updates , and left my apartment immaculately clean. We’re so lucky to have found Alicia, and can’t wait to have her back again!”

15. Aida K.
“Aida was absolutely wonderful! She watched our great dane at our house for just over two weeks while we traveled abroad. She showed up before we left to make sure everything was set. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates as well as handled household issues without needing directions. Our dog was well cared for with walks and snuggles the whole time. Needless to say, we look forward to having Aida sit again.”
16. Alyssa M.
“We recently had Alyssa stay at our house to watch our senior dog with special needs and a special diet while we were on vacation in March. Alyssa's care for our furry family member was great, and we couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Highlights: Flexibility and Accommodation: Alyssa was incredibly flexible and accommodating. When our travel plans changed, she was willing to adjust her schedule and come to our house earlier than planned. Daily Updates and Pictures: Alyssa provided us with daily updates and pictures of our dog, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Home Condition: We returned from our trip to find our home in the same condition as we had left it. Alyssa ensured that everything was tidy, which was a lovely surprise. Overall, Alyssa's professionalism, care, and attention to detail made our vacation stress-free, knowing that our beloved pet was in good hands. We highly recommend Alyssa as a pet sitter and would not hesitate to have her care for our dog again in the future. Thank you, Alyssa, for taking such great care of Cami!”
17. Nicole F.
“Nicole stayed at our house to watch our fur babies! Nicole sent pictures and let us know when she got there and left. This was the first time ever having someone outside of family watch our dogs, Nicole eased our minds by having a great connection with them at our meet and greet and communicating with us during her stay. Will definitely have her watch them again!”
18. Jaclyn B.
“Jaclyn cared for our senior dog who requires extra TLC and meds. She is dependable, communicates well with frequent updates/pics, so we always knew how Charlie was doing, and not to mention he loved her upon meeting. It was comforting to know our dog was well cared for while we were away. We would definitely book with Jaclyn again.”
19. Bekah K.
“Our 1st time with Rover and Bekah was amazing. We came home to a very happy pug and everything was just perfect. Bekah thank you!”
20. Alanna C.
“Alanna is an amazing pet sitter! Always willing to go above and beyond for our girls! We have 3 Great Danes and now a pug as well! She is very attentive to their needs and follows our rules and schedule to make the girls comfortable. She’s always willing to go the extra mile when asked. Our girls absolutely adore her and love when she comes to visit! I would recommend her a million times over. She is always our first choice when we need someone!”
