1. Nusa S.

“Nusa was Great with my dogs. She sent me so many pictures and kept me up to date on what was going on. I have a rescue who is very anxious and she was patient with him and used all the tricks I told her to help her get on his good side. She kept the house clean and did exactly what she said she would. I plan to use Nusa again!”


2. Alina R.

“Alina was so so wonderful. She came to our home and stayed for the weekend. The was on time, she communicated incredibly well, I came home and the house looked better than I left it and I know my dog had the best time with her. We will absolutely be booking with Alina again!”


3. Abigail F.

“Abigail was very friendly and responsive. She also was willing to do anything that would help our dogs while she was at our home (dog medication, staying longer, etc).”


4. Sidni M.

“I feel incredibly lucky that I met Sidni by chance through this app. She stayed at my house and watched my German Shepard while I was out of town. Sidni was professional, kind and responded nearly instantly whenever I reached out. She provided constant updates and photos of my pup having the best time with her. I came home to a house that was cleaner than when I left and a dog that was extremely happy. I trust and recommend Sidni!”

7. Daphne F.

“Daphne was amazing with my two kitties! She came on time, played with them and updated me daily with pictures, leaving me feeling relieved while on vacation knowing they are in good hands! She was so respectful of my home and truly went above and beyond. I would definitely use her again and recommend her services!”

9. Lexi C.
About: I have grown up taking care of dogs! My grandpa breeds dogs so I have taken care of several different breeds. Along with puppies, pregnant dogs, old dogs, and sick dogs. I have a 7 year old German Shepard (she does not live with me right now) and I love to take her to the dog park, for walks, swimming, and to pet smart to spoil her. I can guarantee the best care for your dog or cat. I am a full time student at UT, but have lots of breaks within the day and no more than two classes a day. I do live in an apartment with two other roommates and they’re both dog lovers as well. I also live right next to a dog park and lots of walking paths so high energized dogs are no problem! I would love to take care of your pet whenever is needed. I can do overnight stays, walks, daily check ins or whatever is needed. I can ensure proper care for your pet whether it is for one day or a week!

11. Samantha L.
“Samantha has been pet sitting for 2 years. She is a dog lover and takes care of the dog as if she owns it. She is kind and caring towards our dog. She is responsible and good at communicating with me.”


12. Dominique E.
“Dominique sent updates throughout the day. She was tidy and respectful. She was understanding of my “crazy dog mom” list and she followed it well. She took time to bond with Moto and Cross, even staying a little extra time to show them some love. Highly recommend Dominique.”


13. Avery D.

“Avery was absolutely amazing! Our dogs loved her and she left our house incredibly neat and clean. I would absolutely suggest her to everyone and I plan to use her again!!”


14. Madison M.

“Madison was incredible! We did a meet and greet beforehand and Sugar instantly adored her. Madison was super communicative the entire time, sent pictures, and even ran a load in the dishwasher for me before she left. Overall, above and beyond and we cannot wait to book with her again 🤩”


15. Patrick S.

“Patrick is a wonderful guy, and my dogs loved him! He did a great job and I will be reusing him many times. At first, I was very nervous leaving my four legged kids with a new person. But I have cameras in my main areas and knew I could check on my babies. The cameras weren’t needed, as soon as I met Patrick and shook his hand, I could tell he was a honest and trustworthy guy. Not one time on my trip did I worry about my dogs. And when I returned, I could tell my dogs were in a good mood after having him stay the weekend at my home with them. Thanks Patrick! If anyone needs a reference please feel free to email me taylorgarrett254@yahoo.com”


16. Jennifer W.

“We had an amazing experience with Jen watching our energetic Vizsla puppy over the weekend! She was incredibly attentive to his needs, making sure he got plenty of exercise and care. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were out of town. It was clear that she genuinely cared for our pup, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We highly recommend Jen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


17. Elizabeth N.

“Elizabeth was amazing with Penny! She took her on a very long walk which Penny loved! We got photos and felt very comfortable with Penny in her care.”


18. Kiley P.

“Kiley house sat for us for a few days and took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She was patient with my nervous dog and willing to try anything to get him to come out of hiding. She eventually got him out and he came out of his shell more and more. I felt so comfortable leaving them in her care and will book her the next time we need animal care while traveling. Thank you Kiley!”


19. Rohit S.
“Rohit is an outstanding pet sitter! He’s reliable, caring, and has a genuine love for animals. My pets were happy and well cared for, and his regular updates with pictures gave me peace of mind while we were away! He was excellent at communicating and accommodating with our wishes.”


20. Benjamin M.
“Ben is fantastic with pets! He stayed in our house and cared for our dog and cat for a week while they were on vacation, and they had a great time. He made sure our dog got plenty of exercise, took her to her favorite spot to swim and she looked so happy in the pictures that he sent us. We can't recommend him enough!”
