“Gabriel was an excellent dog sitter for Walnut. He was attentive, patient, and very professional throughout the entire experience. He communicated clearly, provided updates, and always confirmed details, which gave me great peace of mind. Walnut seemed very happy and comfortable with him, and it was clear he genuinely enjoyed spending time with Gabriel. I truly felt that Walnut was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Gabriel and would love for him to continue sitting for us in the future.”

I’m the #1 dog sitter amongst my network, not only because I work from home and have availability, but because I also include their fur babies in my dog’s activities as well i.e. dog park dates, dog birthday parties, and doggie brunch!

“Talla was such a sweetheart. She took great care of Wilbur and made sure to update me regarding his activities and medications. She was available last minute and was very responsive and communicative!”

“My wife and I used Timothy on a trip from Florida to Oshkosh. We were passing through and wanted to take my daughter to the field museum and the shed aquarium. We had our German Shepherd, Sheba, with us, we reached out to Timothy and he agreed to watch Sheba for the afternoon. Timothy went above and beyond. He met us on the steps of the museum to pick Sheba up, and brought her back to us. I cannot overstate how great the experience was, we highly recommend using Timothy. He is extremely nice and easy to deal with.”


“Ashley was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my dog was comfortable with his stay at her house while I worked. She was very communicative, made sure to have full understanding of his care, and gave him lots of love! From the moment I dropped him off, I can tell she really cares about the pets she and her daughter care for, when I picked Echo up at the end of the day, he was so sad to leave! I’ll definitely be booking with Ashley again! :)”

Mirae had a wonderful time with Sahana! Sahana was so responsive, communicative, and caring! We met at the lovely park, so that Mirae could walk a bit and enjoy the beautiful weather. With Sahana, Mirae had walkies, lunchtime, and nap time! Thank you so much, Sahana.

Vivian sent lots of pictures and took great care of my dog Larry for a day. Larry was a little nervous at first but she made him feel comfortable. She has cute dog that’s very calm and friendly and it seemed like her building has pet friendly areas so it was a great stay for Larry. Definitely would book again, Larry came home relaxed and calm

Hua / Katrina was phenomenal! My dog, Moka, is a highly energetic and excitable dog and Hua was able to care for her so well and was so accommodating. She kept me updated throughout the day with thoughtful notes and sent me videos/pictures of Moka. Hua is an amazing dog sitter and I would definitely have her care for Moka again.

Muindi has a calming energy and a genuine love of dogs. He asked clarifying questions before drop off which helped put me at ease that he wanted to take great care of our Kiwi. He took her on a really long walk and sent several pictures during the day. She came home tired and happy. Highly recommend!

DEMIN was amazing. We had to find someone very last minute as the prior Rover we booked cancelled last minute. She was very responsive, welcoming and organized. She answered all our questions and was very confident to help care for both of our dogs. Would definitely book with her again, highly recommend!
