“Chelsey was wonderful! She was communicative and took great care of our cats. One of our cats often gets stressed out when we are out of town, but when we returned home he showed no signs of distress! Both cats were very happy when we returned home. Also, our home was immaculate. Thank you Chelsey!!!!”
“Josh was very patient and kind with Smiley who can be nervous upon meeting new people. Josh offered to do a meet and greet and when he came for housesitting, he got a nice walk and sent lots of photos!”
“Ethel was amazing! My husband and I traveled out of the country for 9 nights (which turned into 10 thanks to a missed flight) and any nerves I had about leaving our three dogs were quickly dashed by Ethel's photos and updates. We left our three large female dogs in her care and joked they were on a better vacation than we were. Ethel stayed in our house and gave our girls tons of attention and love. She sent us photos and videos multiple times a day, every day. We never wondered what they were up to. It was so reassuring. Ethel truly loves dogs. Her little nicknames for ours, the photos of them passed out next to her with their tongues out totally comfortable... it was clear they were in great hands. We are so glad to have met Ethel. We cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be using her again.”
“Alana was fantastic! She stayed with our dog, Daisy and we came home to a spotless house and a very happy, well taken care of dog! Will absolutely use her again!”
“I’d give Anthony more stars if I could! He took great care of my two dogs while I was away. One of whom is older, ornery guy, and not always easy to handle. He was endlessly patient and gentle with both of them, making sure they were comfortable and happy the whole time. He kept me updated with lots of great pictures and texts which really helped put my mind at ease. Anthony is great guy and I felt liked he treated my pets as though they were his own. I’ll definitely be booking with him again.”
“Paige was amazing with Moose! She kept us updated with photos and messages, which made us feel so at ease while we were away. Moose looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the whole time. We came home to a very happy pup and will definitely be using Paige again. Highly recommend!”
“Valarie was amazing - from great and clear communication to every single expectation being exceeded, she was fabulous. She took wonderful care of our home (it was like we never left) and our dogs were clearly loved and well taken care of. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using Valarie again for future stays!”
“Nancy stayed in our home with our two senior dogs for 5 nights and 6 days, and it was clear from the daily photos she shared that they absolutely fell in love with her. She took fabulous care of our babies and even told us she would gladly watch them again in the future. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience!”
“Bryan was a dream! He was proactive every step along the way and responsive whenever I reached out before and during the booking. He treated my home and pets with great care and attention. I would happily give Bryan my highest recommendation and gladly have him back anytime. Thank you, Bryan!”
“Jackie was great with my senior pup Simba! She accommodated a meet and greet to get to know our routine before her stay. I get pretty anxious leaving my dog because of his age and previous injuries and Jackie followed all my instructions for my pup (including giving meds!) and for my home too. Not to mention she provided great updates while I was away. Came back home and everything was in tact and like I left it. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Another excellent sit by Lauren. Kept in touch as there was potential tornado alert that weekend! She made sure Rosie was safe and stayed with her. House clean and tidy on return she definitely makes leaving your pet and your home less stressful”
“Kylie was so accommodating with our booking while staying in a hotel. We brought our pup and were worried she’d stress out being left in a new environment. Kylie responded to my request right away and she was so sweet to my girl. She updated me through her stay and sent me the cutest pictures.”
“Camila did such a great job, I will definitely be a repeat client. She was my my puppy all day at my home, and she kept me well informed with plenty off updates, pictures, and videos.”
“Gabriela took such good care of our Willow and our home! Willow is reactive and took some time to warm up and through the process she communicated so well and was incredibly understanding and patient! She also sent plenty of pictures to let us know all was going well so we could enjoy our time away!”
“Lauren is amazing with my dog Luna and was so flexible when I had to change plans. Have re-booked many times because Luna just loves her and I know she’s in good hands with Lauren!”
“As Alia was a perfect overnight dog sitter. Our pups loved her and felt safe with her care. She went above and beyond with feeding, playtime, and keeping them happy while we were away for a two week trip. Even when a medical emergency arose, she acted quickly and was able to get our dog care without hesitation. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s one of the best sitters we’ve had!”
“Lydia was a great dog and house sitter! This was the first time we had ever left our babies with someone other than a family member. Lydia is so detail oriented that she even questioned a mistake I had made on the medication instructions for our senior dog. She sent many updates and pictures the whole stay. Will definitely use Lydia again!”

Hongyang was such an amazing pet sitter! This was my husband’s and my first time leaving Odie, so we were a little nervous. She kept us updated with pictures and always responded quickly whenever I asked how my furry baby was doing. When we got home, the house was just as clean and organized as when we left it. Most importantly, Odie was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. He was super excited to see us again, but it was obvious he had a great time with Hongyang too! The only small thing I noticed was that a piece of napkin had been left on the couch. I had mentioned in the care instructions that any trash should be thrown away because Odie loves to chew on anything he finds on the floor or in the couch. Thankfully, it wasn’t a big issue, just something to keep in mind. We will definitely hire her again in the future. Odie loved her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much!
Alana stayed at our home to watch our 2 pups and cat. She was fantastic. From the time that I reached out until after the visit, she communicated every step of the way. She sent pics the entire time we were away. She’s very conscientious and caring… I never worried the entire time. And, I came back to happy pups and a happy kitty because they were so well cared for. Thanks Alana!
Lauren was great - we booked her super far in advance and she came over before the confirmation / booking to get the run down and meet us and Jones. She stayed over night and took great pics and care of our boy while we were easy and super busy. Didn’t have one moment of concern or worry - knew he was in great care! She left the house immaculate too!
McKenna did a great job pet sitting for my Dog Lucy and Cat Leo! She followed my instructions well and reached out with any questions she had. She was very attentive with both animals making sure she was caring for them the best she can! I came home from a long vacation and felt like they were very happy and loved for while I was gone. Additionally she said over my apt some and was very clean! Will book McKenna again for future pet sitting!
Jackie watched our dog, Finn, for 5 days and did a womderful job. Finn was happy when we returned and was spoiled while we were away. The house was beautiful when we returned. She nearly responded immediately whenever we sent a question, etc. We would definitey recommend her and would use her with no questions when we travel in the future.
Anne is a phenomenal sitter! She spent 2 weeks in our home with our 1 year old cats while we were out of the country on vacation. She sent tons of photos and updates/check ins on how our cats were doing throughout the whole trip and followed our care instructions precisely. She was incredibly respectful of our home, and our home looked exactly as we had left it when we came back. She also left a photo of our cats and a sweet personalized card which was such a lovely touch. We will absolutely book Anne again for future house sitting!
Dana watched two dogs in our home. She was very communicative before and during our trip, including arranging a handoff with another sitter. The dogs got good exercise and she quickly understood each dog’s personality and unique styles. House was perfectly cleaned up when I got back. Will definitely book her again!
