1. Christina G.
“Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!”
2. Wes B.
“Wes is fantastic. My dog Sam really enjoys his visits and spending time with the other dogs Wes cares for. It's been a really good experience with Wes! Thank you.”
3. Ellie C.
“Ellie is a literal cat whisperer! We have a sphinx that generally dislikes people but he attached to Ellie immediately, purring and rubbing against her leg. When she leaves he stays in her exact spot on the chair for days. Not only is she great with cats, but dogs too. She has a great personality and warmth. I would recommend her anytime.”
4. Jenna L.
“Jenna is a dependable and responsible pet caregiver. She enthusiastically interacts with pets and is willing to provide whatever care is requested . After our vacation we came home to a clean environment and happy dogs . It was obvious she took good care of our fur babies . We would hire her anytime .”
5. Tracy E.
“Tracy has cared for our dogs multiple times, and always does a wonderful job! He is so pleasant to work with and you can tell he really cares about the dogs. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
6. Natalie B.
“Natalie is 5 Stars amazing! We came home to 3 tiny pups who were wore out from the fun and love Natalie brings with her. I felt she listened to what I had to say to make me feel better even though this chick knows her stuff!!! Our dogs loved her and I think disappointed when they saw it was us coming home and not her!!”
7. Amara L.
“Amara was wonderful with my dog for a drop in! We have a very excitable 80lb dog and she was so great with her! She was communicative, professional, and I loved all the updates and photos of my pup from her visit! We will absolutely be using Amara again 🐾”
8. Heather S.
“Heather did drop in visits with my pups, she spent time playing ball and making sure they had ample outside time. I would highly recommend Heather for your next sitter.”
9. Elioenia P.
“Elioenia was INCREDIBLE! She took us on with very short notice and was everything I could have hoped. Very communicative, an absolute pleasure to work with, and everything is perfect. She even brought in packages and pulled the trash cans up. The biggest thing though- the first night we were away there were some nervous stomachs apparently and our big dog had a very big, nasty accident on the carpet. If I didn’t know about it, I wouldn’t be able to find the spot. She cleaned it all up and shampooed that area. WAY above and beyond what could ever be expected and I don’t know what I could possibly say that would express my gratitude fully. Thank you, thank you, thank you Elioenia 🙏🏻.”
10. Tricia P.
“This was the first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter, but after our meet and greet, I could tell how caring Tricia was, she was someone I could trust with my Juliette. Tricia did a great job caring for my sweet dog! Her attention and support to my furbaby was greatly appreciated.”
11. Sumer F.
“Our first visit with Sumer was great! She checked in on our two dogs while we were away for the day and sent us pictures! We will definitely be using her again.”
12. Monica A.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 8. I love all animals but especially dogs. I’m an RN but in my free time I love being outdoors and going for walks. I work part time. So I have plenty of free time to spend with your beloved pets. I love going for walks and being active outdoor I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. I have the sweetest lab to keep your fur baby company with playing or napping.
13. Jill P.
“Jill is very reliable, trustworthy and accommodating to our busy schedule. Our dog absolutely adores Jill and she always keeps me updated on walks by sending pictures. Most importantly, we know Indy is in very safe hands and it puts our minds at ease knowing she is being so well looked after. Highly recommend!”
14. Lisa B.
“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”
15. Joscelyn P.
“Joscelyn was great with our puppy! We loved getting updates and pictures while we were away. Will definitely be back!”
16. Zoe D.
“Zoe stepped in when I was in a bind and took extra special care of my kitties. Thanks, Zoe!”
17. Samantha D.
“Our cat Mac is well cared for whenever Samantha watches him. Samantha is on time, a clear communicator, keeps our home just as we left it. We love getting lots of updates and pictures when we are away. Thanks again!”
18. Hailey T.
“Hailey is a great choice for your pet! She has been caring for dogs, cats and fish her entire life. She will give your pet lots of love and special attention. Once while dog-sitting for me, she discovered that my pooch had excessively licked a spot on her leg causing a wound-something I had not yet noticed. You can leave your pet in her care with confidence.”
19. Mar Mar M.
“Mar Mar is a very loving pet caregiver. In her previous home she was the primary caretaker of her dog and on many occasions watched over several of her friends pets too.”
