1. Josette F.
“Josette watched our two GSDs in our home while we were away. First time having her sit for us and will definitely be rebooking! Communication was wonderful and she included daily pictures updates. Any issues that came up she was quick to ask, however, kept conversation to morning/evenings which was nice to not interfere with our trip. She left our home better than she found it I’m sure and our dogs were loved and well taken care of the entire time we were gone. Josette gave us real peace of mind while we travelled!!”
2. Yajahyra S.
“Amazing as usual!! Yajahyra administered meds for our dog and took great care of him while we were in Mexico. We love all of her picture and video updates! Highly recommend!”
3. Roshanda P.
“Roshanda was amazing! She went the extra mile by sending us regular photos and videos of Duke and Spooky to keep us informed. She helped our pets feel comfortable and safe while we were away. Our cat can be pretty shy around new people, but Roshanda was able to speak his language and get him to come and hang out. On the other hand, our dog deals with a bit of separation anxiety, and it's clear that Roshanda has experience with that because she got him to calm down and feel comfortable with us being away. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a responsible, caring, dedicated pet sitter.”
4. Kendra R.
“Kendra went above and beyond while house-sitting my two dogs, including searching out special treats from a local dog bakery.”
5. Christina C.
“Christina is truly the best. She is so very reliable and our 2 labs love her. We highly recommend Christina and look forward to our next time…. Thanks Christina!”
6. Taegan W.
“Taegan was an absolute gem! We met her and immediately loved her and over the course of our 10 day trip, loved her more and more every day! Taegan sent us daily updates including pictures and loved on our three animals in our absence. Taegan was so responsible and was willing to take care of any issue that came up. Our house was spotless and she even washed our sheets and towels! I’ve never traveled with such ease, having complete confidence that our animals and house were in the best hands. We will 💯 use Taegan again and can only hope she is available because she is that awesome!”
7. Marissa A.
“Marissa did an overnight stay to watch our dog Loki. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated on our dog and kept good care of our place as well. We would book Marissa’s services again and highly recommend her!”
8. Elisa S.
“Elisa was amazing! Her communication was better than expected and she helped Indie adjust to stressful situation while I was away! I needed someone who was able to stay at home during the day and spend the night! I have her on speed dial for those days when I cant make it home. I highly recommend Elisa for any sitting situation.”
9. Madison B.
“Madison is the best dog/house sitter we have ever had. She took great care of our rowdy goofy dogs. She is great with dogs. Our one dog is shy around strangers and Madison was patient with her and won her over. Madison was thoughtful and respectful of our home too. Will definitely be using her again! Thank you Madison for taking care of our pets as if they were your own :)”
10. Alyssa h.
“Alyssa is wonderful with all kinds of dogs. She is caring and very reliable. She will take care and love your dog as thought it were her own. I would highly recommend Alyssa for any of your pets needs.”
11. Selina N.
“Selina was wonderful! Beatrice and Sofie seemed very happy to be taken care of by her. Selina updated us frequently with great photos and took care of the house very well. We can’t wait to use her services again! :)”
12. Meghan & Michael D.
“We were very happy to have Meghan for our dog. She was very quick to answer our messages before the confirmation, on time, and our dog seemed very comfortable with her. We will definitely invite her again.”
13. Nick M.
“Nick went above and beyond to take care of our babies! He left the house clean and the pups happy, what more can we ask for! He also included some high quality photos of the boys, very professional! We will absolutely be having him back to watch them next time we leave town.”
14. Justin A.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Justin! His communication was top notch, and his love and care for our fur babies was evident. He prioritized their exercise and was the best pet sitting experience we have had! 11/10!”
15. abbey r.
“Well, Abbey and I met while I was serving in the Marines stationed out in California. She still to this day is the kindest, most responsible, and most genuinely wholesome person I know. I asked her to watch my dog Max when I deployed last year. She made sure to walk Max every single morning, played with him every day, and even took him to the groomer when his fur was getting too long. She loves animals, especially cats. I have no doubt in my mind that she would do anything less than exceed your expectations as a pet sitter.”
16. Isabel A.
“Hello to all that read this. Isabel was amazing to our pup. She and her family gave him lots of love , attention , care and play time We recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”
17. Estella M.
“Estella is an absolutely wonderful human and equally great dog sitter. I have a large very anxious giant schnauzer that needed persistence/calm/gentleness to gain trust quickly, Estella didnt waiver in providing the essential care even when he was guarded/untrusting initially. He’s a big boy and she was able to handle him on walks with confidence. Very communicative and truly reliable. Knowing our furbaby was in the responsible good hands of a loving sitter, allowed us to relax on our overseas travel. She took immaculate care of the house as well! Absolute gem.”
18. Sharon S.
“Sharon helped take care of our dog Winston during our wedding festivities. She was outstanding. She was attentive and accommodating and Winston really loved spending time with her. I would 100% recommend her for any thing you need.”
19. Emily T.
“Emily was very responsive and clearly knowledgeable about dogs. I have an older dog that requires meds throughout the day and felt totally confident that she was in good hands. The pictures she sent proved that, as she was always a smiling and happy. I'll absolutely have Emily dogsit again the next time I go out of town.”
20. Jessica W.
“Jessica is fantastic! She has her own dogs and even a horse she jumps in competitions, so she really knows the ins and outs of animal care and training. Her professional experience in the animal performance, health, and care industry really shows. She shared great tips and insights for understanding and caring for my dog, Scooter, and I felt totally confident leaving him in her care. You can tell she has a deep passion, knowledge of breeds and needs, and respect for animals, and it makes all the difference. She just speaks their language! I highly recommend Jessica for anyone looking for a attentive, knowledgeable, patient, reliable, and loving caregiver!”
