Alexandra was great as usual! She loves spending time with our dogs and makes sure to keep me updated and send lots of pictures (without me asking and feeling like I’m annoying her). She’s very trustworthy and we love having her watch our two pups. Highly recommend booking her!

Sade was amazing. She took great care of my needy dogs over the holidays. Sade was punctual, great communicator and left the house perfect. Definitely recommend and will look to her for any future house sitting needs.

I am so glad we found Heather to care for our two pups while we were out of town! They seemed so happy and healthy when we got home. She also kept our house tidy while she stayed with them for the weekend. She sent us lots of updates with photos and videos throughout each day. 5 stars :)

Stacey was absolutely amazing with our two boys. She took them for walks and loved on them while we weren’t able to. She was very communicative and sent us pictures and videos of how happy the boys were. When we came home, she had left the house cleaner than when she arrived. I cannot give her enough stars!

Erika was absolutely fantastic! My wife, son and I had a quick trip up to NYC and booked Erika to house sit for us and our sweet Harper girl. She sent us pictures morning, noon and night and she went above and beyond with cleaning our house and making us feel safe and happy with our fur-girl ? Will book again and highly recommend booking with Erika!

John was great taking care of our dog during a weekend getaway. He kept us updated throughout our time away, promptly returning messages. He has a very calm demeanor, which likely helped our dog (who can be anxious) promptly warm up to him. He left our house tidy and clean. He does have a regular full time job during the week, so you may wish to arrange for additional dog walking to ensure your dog is not alone for an extended period Monday thru Friday.

kim watched my new rescue of 6 weeks when i had to take an emergency 6 day trip. even knowing my dogs big challenges ahead of time, she was confident and excited to care for her. she took her on long runs/hikes every day, and worked on positive reinforcement and reactivity training with her! she was the right amount of communicative with me while i was gone and left a summary of what they did each day for me to read when i returned. i came back to a happy and tired pup who still had a strong grasp on the things we’d been training before i left! now, kim takes my pup on weekly runs and it’s obvious how much my pup loves her and their time together!

Jessica was fabulous. Did a consultation with us prior to booking to ensure she was a good fit with my two dogs who can be a bit of a hassle. She was patient and communicative! My dogs loved her. She will be my go-to sitter now.

Kaitlyn did a great job watching my dog, Puccini! She came over the night before she stayed with Puccini to meet her and see the house. Kaitlyn is warm and friendly, and Puccini took a liking to her quickly. Kaitlyn stayed overnight at our place for two nights, and we came home to a very clean house. Puccini is 11 weeks and potty training, so it was great to come home to a clean house that smelled great! I highly recommend Kaitlyn for house sitting for young puppies and other pet services.

Susan’s new name should be “Susan the Cat Whisperer”! She is the best! My two very shy kitties were completely comfortable around her - and for the first time ever, ate all of their food (we’ve left them with other sitters in the past and they barely ate). They were happy & healthy the whole time we were away. Susan provided lots of photos and commentary on the stay (very funny and witty commentary on the photos - I laughed our loud many times). Thank you so much Susan, I highly highly recommend 😊

Hilda was such a great fit for us! We have a senior dog who requires a bit of extra care and so we don’t often leave her alone these days. Meeting Hilda, she clearly showed a great deal of patience and caring
