“Thank you so much, Shannon, for taking such great care of our pups! We didn’t worry while we were gone, and we know the dogs had a great time and were well cared for!”

“Molly was the absolute best! She worked with us on some scheduling difficulties and ended up saving the day. She kept us totally updated with photos and messages and didn’t hesitate to ask questions which I really appreciate. Can’t wait for Molly to house/dog sit again!”

“Kayla was such an attentive and communicative sitter. She took great care of Rocco taking him on walks and giving him lots of pets! We would definitely recommend her and look forward to working with her again.”

“Chardonay and Ben are officially added to my list of dependable house and dog sitters! They took care of my two dogs, Fernando and Dolly, at my house while I was away for 4 days and I could not be more pleased. First and foremost, both the dogs were obviously well cared for and I received photo updates. From the get-go, Nando and Dolly took to Chardonay and Ben right away, and I felt reassured and could tell they were at ease with caring for dogs. Second, the house and yard were in immaculate condition when I returned. Seriously, spotless. Third, they are just super nice and great communicators both off- and online. Highly recommended!!!”

“Analyss is amazing! We were in a pinch and needed a sitter for our pup Juniper - who can be a little anxious on her own. Analyss saved the day! Very communicative, chill and super sweet with our pup. We loved our updates, and came home to a happy puppy! We will definitely be calling Analyss first when we need a sitter! Highly recommend!”

“Freddie is a special dog who is very selective about the humans he allows in his orbit. He is shy and fearful, it takes him some time to warm up to strangers. Imani did a wonderful job being patient and gentle with him, she provided just the right amount of warmth and fun in his daily play. I came home to a very happy little dog.”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of our energetic 3-year-old doodle and our home. She sent us a daily picture as well. We would definitely book with her again. Thanks Rachel!”

“Lucinda took good care of our adored dog. She stayed at our house for 2 weeks and left our place spotless and with Cherif in very good form. We would rebook her!”

“It was so great to come home and see the cats and everything else had been so well taken care of. The communication with Melissa was great throughout our 18 days away. We especially loved Melissa's appreciations for each of our girls' uniqueness and personality. Melissa obviously is able to adapt to the situation she is in and make it a good experience for pets of all kinds. We look forward to engaging Melissa. again.”

“Danny couldn’t have been better. He was invested on my dog’s habits, routine, and was willing to take the time to really get to know him and take care of him. As long as he allows, Danny will be my first choice.”

“Stephanie was great with my Shih Tzus Belle and Finn. She administered oral meds and eye ointment without a problem, played fetch, and kept them happy with cuddles and loads of attention. Quickly responded to my texts - I had no concern my Littles were anything but happy with her. Will use Stephanie again in the future!”

“Erika was a wonderful cat and house sitter! Her communication was excellent from the start - she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, so I always knew how my cat Mitten was doing. She was very accommodating and genuinely cared for Mitten, who clearly adores her and was so happy in her care! Seeing Mitten so loved and comfortable while I was away gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for caring and reliable pet care.”

“Banana had a wonderful time with Heidi! This was our first trip since our baby was born and we wanted Banana to feel special so she wouldn't be left out. Heidi left our home looking better than we left it and kept us updated throughout our trip. We look forward to having Heidi stay with Banana again!”

“Robert does a wonderful job caring for my dogs while I’m away. I get photos while I’m gone and when I get home it’s like I never left. They get lots of cuddles and play time too!”

“We felt totally comfortable with Peter watching the pups. I know they were happy and cared for. He will be our first consideration anytime we need them cared for. Beyond excellent.”

“James did an awesome job watching our two dogs while we were away for the weekend. He kept us updated, followed all our care notes, and the dogs absolutely loved him. We’d definitely book him again!”

“Veronica was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Chico! From the moment they met, he was drawn to her, and she handled all of his puppy energy and antics with patience and care. Veronica truly went above and beyond — she made two visits before the weekend stay to get to know him, which gave us absolute peace of mind. Throughout her time with Chico, we felt confident he was in loving, capable hands. We’re so happy with her care and would absolutely love to work with her again!”

“Helen is so sweet and trustworthy! Our pup had never stayed with anyone before, so we were anxious but she immediately put our mind at ease. Our house looks cleaner than we left it and our pup looks happy. We’re so grateful! Thank you so much Helen!!”
