“Sarah was fantastic with Cadbury and very communicative. I highly recommend her to care for your dog!!”
“Rachel did an amazing job and she left my home better than I left it, lol!!! She was attentive and communicates everything and lots of pictures! My boys loved her and I felt like I could enjoy my time away! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again! We love her.”
“Ayanna continues to be incredible. She always keeps us updated with photos and videos. She’s transparent and kind and our two dogs love her. I feel lucky to have found her to take care of our girls when we’re out of town.”
“Nichole was amazing! Great communication and gave us plenty of pics while we were gone to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We’d definitely like to have her be our regular sitter.”
“Lindsey was amazing over a full weeklong stay with my crazy band of pets. She provided excellent care for my two big velcro dogs with anxiety and two cats (one of which requires a daily pill and additional care). Great, regular communication with pictures and left the pets and house in better shape than when we left! Would definitely recommend.”
“Arianna was amazing with Kofi! She constantly took pictures to send to me and kept me updated on their activities. Very sweet spirit and I would book her again!✨”
“Rudy had some great walks with Tori and seemed pretty relaxed when we returned. Tori did a great job with him alls our house was neat as a pin.”

She left the house spotless and went above and beyond to keep everything in our boys' world as business as usual as possible while we were away. We know when we take a longer trip they'll be in great hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Kimberly was amazing caring for our pets. She was super communicative from her arrival, to sending updates/pictures/videos throughout each day, letting us know when she came and went and any questions she had. Even got our finicky cat to take his meds in his food. The house looked great. Recommend her for any pet sitter needs!”
“Emily was so great with Basil! She was super communicative and took lots of pictures! I could tell my dog was happy and very comfortable with her!”

“Elisa is the sweetest human and took wonderful care of our home and two medium dogs during our vacation abroad! She was very communicative and sent photos multiple times a day. She spent a lot of time with our dogs outside (on daily walks and hanging out in the yard), playing with them, and cuddling them. She also collected our mail and helped to keep our plants alive during our 12-day trip. The house and—most importantly—our fur babies were in perfect shape when we got home. She is completely trustworthy, which helped us to have a worry-free trip.”

“As always, Ahmed was the perfect cat sitter. Jack and Sammy love him and probably regret when I come home and he leaves. Lots of play and love! Ahmed sent photos every day -- making the time away from the boys so much easier. I highly, highly recommend Robin and Ahmed -- individually and as a team they are terrific!”
“Despite an initial miscommunication on the type of care requested, Clair was clearly very knowledgeable and comfortable with dogs and we would trust her with Basil again.”
“Emily did a fantastic job caring for and loving our pups while we were away. Being new to the area, Emily gave us peace of mind and updated us regularly on how the pups were doing with all the changes. Highly recommend!”
