Malia was fantastic! She is a very good communicator and super responsible. She sent pictures of my pups while I was away, which was great. One of my dogs is very nervous around new people but she quickly warmed up to Malia. She left my place just as she'd found it. I highly recommend Malia!!

Kimberly is awesome! She’s friendly and outgoing yet professional. We felt comfortable with her from the moment we met her and confident that she would take care of our puppy in the manner of which we were accustomed. Don’t hesitate to give her a call. We will be doing so whenever we’re in town. :)

Hiring Charlii to care for our two 13-year-old dogs for eight days was one of the best pet-related decisions I've ever made. Our sweet goblins are rescues with pretty complex medical and emotional needs, and Charlii handled it all with ease. One of them struggles with being left alone for more than short periods of time, and Charlii was great about hanging out with him and taking him on little adventures when she needed to be away. Our other pup is dealing with chronic kidney disease, she can be a mess (literally), but it didn't seem to phase Charlii at all. Her daily updates were frequent, including lots of photos and videos, which really helped me relax and enjoy my vacation. She handled medication (including oral) with no problems and was very attentive to all of their other needs & quirks. We also returned to a tidy house and even some welcome-back flowers, which was lovely! After the pups joined our family and we discovered how needy they were, I was afraid that I'd never be able to leave town again. I knew there was absolutely no way I'd be comfortable boarding them after the trauma they'd experienced with abandonment and living on the streets. Charlii saved us! It was such a relief to know our guys were safe, healthy and getting lots of love while we were away. We'll definitely be having Charlii back. She has such a warm, professional demeanor and is so reliable that I'd never hesitate to recommend her. The pups and I are super grateful!

Book her without hesitation! It was the first time that my husband and I were having a dog sitter over our house so we were a little anxious, but Melina was extremely kind and helpful. She was sending a lot of pictures and updates of our puppy while my partner and I were out. Our little Sansa loved her! Plus she gave us a lot of advices about training and puppy behavior! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

We love working with Anais! Her care of our senior Schipperke, Maz, has been expert and attentive. Being 17 years old, Maz has a lot of needs and Anais has cared for him both during the day and overnight, and we've been so grateful for her attentiveness to him around his routine, his meds, and for making sure he feels taken care of and loved. We're so glad we connected with Anais and will definitely be contacting her in the future!

Mary truly understands dogs—not just as pets, but as individual beings with their own personalities and quirks. She took the time to connect with our dog, honoring his unique character and needs. I know that Mary has worked with every temperament you can imagine—from shy and sensitive to bold and high-energy—and she handles each with patience, love, and incredible care. She’s fun-loving and playful, but also remarkably in tune with each dog’s energy.As dog owners, we also felt so supported. Her communication is top-notch—she always kept us in the loop, was responsive to any specific instructions or concerns, and made sure we felt completely at ease while away. Our pup clearly adored her, and so did we. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Not only was I updated throughout the trip with cute photos and videos, my home was cared for and left in the same manner it was in before my trip. Thanks for great communication and care for Romeo!

Grace stayed in my home and watched my two fur babies (5-month-old kitten and 3-year-old cat) for 10 days/9 nights and she truly did the most amazing job—I really can’t recommend her enough!! I’m new to Rover and was hesitant to have someone I don’t know stay in my home for that long but Grace was so kind, trustworthy, and thoughtful. She was very quick to respond to my messages and sent me thorough updates every other day with lots of adorable pictures of her playing with my cats, which made me so happy. My kitten is a ball of energy and is still learning how to navigate the litter box (sometimes she steps in her poop) and required some medication while I was away. Grace had no issues administering the medication, she did an awesome job monitoring the poop situation, and played with her a ton (my kitten is probably disappointed that I came home from my trip 😂). Also, I cleaned my home before I left and when I returned, it was just as clean (if not cleaner) than I left it. I will 100% be a repeat client! Grace is fantastic!!

I highly recommend Jess for anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter! She showed up exactly when she was supposed to, kept me updated with messages and pictures, and was very respectful of my home. Even my usually grumpy cat didn’t seem to mind her presence—which says a lot! It was such a relief knowing my cats were in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!
