Destiny was great with our dogs. Super communicative and detailed with her updates. And she took extra precautions during a heat wave to make sure our pups were safe and cool. Overall, a great experience with Destiny and would definitely recommend!

Carla was great in every way . . . with our 15-year-old male tiger cat and 19-month-old Havanese puppy. The animals bonded with Carla, thanks to her interaction and instincts with them. She sent us daily photos of our fur loves, so helpful as we were thousands of miles away. And, she left our apartment house impeccably clean! We will definitely connect with Carla the next time we are away.

Daniel did a fantastic job taking care of my two dogs and the house for 3 days. One of the dogs was sick and needed several medications which he stayed on top of. Communication was also top notch and he left the house clean and organized. Will definitely ask him back next time I need a house sitter!

Sydney was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my pup. I was so grateful to find her on short notice, and really appreciate she made time to come by for a quick meet and greet before my trip. She kept me updated on how my pup was doing, and I came home to a happy, snoozy dog. I hope I’ll have a chance to work with Sydney again!

Bryan is just what I have been searching for in a dog sitter! I have a complex crew of 3 rescue dogs, all different ages with some minor typical rescue pup issues. At our meet and greet it was clear my dogs trusted him, and after their weekend together even my more challenging and slow to warm up pittie had given in! He’s great with them and was awesome with communication and updates, a very respectful house guest and the best dog sitter! We will definitely be using his great services again soon!! Thanks so much for taking such great care of my fur babies!!

Kelsie is great with our mini poodle Murphy. I know she takes great care of Murphy both when I have a super long day and he just needs to be fed and let out, as well as when we leave town for a few days and she stays at our house with him so he feels comfortable. I treat my dog like a family member and Kelsie does the same when she’s with Murphy. I recommend her as dog caregiver and trust her caring for my dog completely.

Jackiellen has a natural way with animals. She was patient and caring while walking and sitting for our elderly dog. I have also witnessed her caring for rescued cats, giving them life-changing care. I would highly recommend her to care for your beloved four-legged friends.

Bret accepted our short notice booking and stopped by for a meet & greet before we headed out for a weekend trip, which was great. Our pets are currently pretty low maintenance but it was important for us to have someone stay the weekend while we had some R&R. We’d have Bret back on a future vacation.

Mackenzie was a fantastic animal support person for our Sammy. Very communicative and understanding to all of his unique needs. Sammy has never been calmer after we've been away than he was with Mackenzie. Without hesitation we'd have her back to hang out with him again.

Lindsay was so amazing with my 3 month old puppy! Lottie is quite a handful since she’s in full on puppy chaos mode but Lindsay handled it all like a champ! She was super attentive and communicative and I felt totally at ease! She even brought us rice since Lottie was having an upset tummy!! Would 100% recommend!

Sophie took care of our sweet elderly dog while we were away for the week and was very communicative and responsible. She took her for multiple walks each day and I never had to worry as I could tell Sophie really loves dogs.
