“Darcie took fantastic care of all our animals while we were gone. It was my first time using a house sitter so I was a little nervous, but I had nothing to worry about.

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

“We cannot recommend Edna highly enough! She recently watched our two mini dachshunds, Tux and Moo, and exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met her, we could tell how kind and caring she is, and she made us feel completely at ease leaving our dogs in her care. Edna kept our home spotless while we were away, and she consistently checked in with us to provide updates. She even sent us the sweetest pictures of Tux and Moo, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved under her care. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them like family, Edna is the person for you. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!”
“We absolutely loved having Madeline watch our two pups while we were on vacation! I am guilty of leaving too many instructions sometimes, and she made me feel at ease before and during our time away. She also cleaned the house, washed all linens, and left the house in perfect shape. We’d be honored to have her as a sitter again!”
“Katie is great with our dogs! She is very kind and sweet. She is very quick to respond and send us picture and video updates. She worked great with our two crazy dogs who had to be kept separated due to behavior issues and she adapted to the situation very well. She has now watched our dogs twice & we will certainly ask her in the future! Highly recommend Katie!”
“Highly recommend. Brianna stayed at our place for over a week and took care of everyone (2 large dogs, 2 cats, fish, houseplants, and the garden). She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and it was such a relief to have her housesit while we were out of the country. I will book with her again in the future!”
“Abbigail was amazing! She gave my fur babies so much love and attention! She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. I’m beyond happy with her services! If you’re looking for a great sitter for your furry friends, she’s definitely the girl for you!”

She had great communication, took the time to meet them ahead of the stay, sent us updates/pictures, she was flexible with our son’s tournament schedule, and she made sure we came home to a clean home with fresh linens.
