“Simply put, Vanessa is perfect as a pet and house sitter. She took excellent care of our senior dog and our young cat.Our senior dog requires a lot of attention and medications and Vanessa handle this perfectly. Our young cat is very shy among most people, but immediately warmed up to Vanessa. She communicated extremely well and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout our trip. We were able to enjoy our vacation thourghly because we had so much confidence in how Vanessa was caring for our pets and our home. I could not give a higher recommendation, and we are definitely going to use Vanessa again. Thank you Vanessa!!”

I will definitely be booking with him again when I need services!”
17. Tanay S.
“Tanay was great with our dog! Marshal warmed up to him really quickly and was even snuggling with him on the couch on day 2 and he’s not a super snuggly dog. Tanay’s easy going nature helped put me and my fiancé at ease with leaving him with someone other than family for the first time. He sent us pics and updates most days we were gone and made sure to text us with any questions he had. I would definitely recommend Tanay for house and pet sitting.”

“Mikaela watched our dogs, Pippa and Ballou, in our home for 5 days while my wife and I were working in our offices. She was great. The dogs loved her and were perfectly content when we'd get home at the end of the day. She managed their food and time outside. She'd send pictures she took of them during the day. She was always on time in the morning. We're very happy about having Mikaela help us out during this last week and look forward to engaging her the next time we need some canine coverage. Can't go wrong!”
