1. Leesa H.

“Our experience with Leesa was fantastic. Leesa proved to be a conscientious and detail-oriented sitter. Before our engagement even began, Leesa asked to come to our house to meet our dogs so she could get an understanding of their behavior and daily routine. She was attentive and receptive to all the nuances that go into their daily routine and she was also very careful to always ask questions and permission if there was something she wanted to do (e.g., prepare home-cooked doggy treats). Leesa was also very keen to replicate routines and keep old habits going strong. For example, she recorded me putting our dogs collars/leashes on so as to not disrupt the pre-walk routine that the dogs have become used to. She also picked up on a few commands that our dogs knew, and wanted to be sure to use them. Leesa was flexible (as she came to our home a few hours earlier than originally planned) and reliable with photos and updates during the stay. My wife and I were leaving town for the weekend and, as most couples do, found ourselves hurried and late. Leesa arrived and immediately stepped in, taking the dogs on a walk. She wanted to make sure that we could finish packing and hit the road without the distraction of the dogs trying to stay good-bye. Leesa gave regular reports on the dogs while we were away and continued to be mindful of anything she thought might be worth asking. Not once did I get the impression that things could go south--she seemed 100% in control. Leesa was also as gracious a guest in our home as one could ask. We returned to a hand-written, welcome-home note and two dogs that were (seemingly) better behaved than when we left. All in all, our experience with Leesa was terrific, and we hope to be able to repeat with her as often as she'll let us.”


2. Mia S.

“Mia made fast friends with my 2 rescues! And they don’t usually warm up to strangers quickly. (They weren’t treated well by the people who had them for the first 6 months or so of their lives.) Mia kept me up to speed on their adventures while I was gone, sending me pictures and telling me how they were doing. I am so glad that we found Mia - I will definitely use her again to care for my kids! 🐾🥰”


3. Rebecca T.

“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of our 3 dogs. (2 young, 1 elderly). Even though they acted crazy at the meet and greet, she agreed to housesit with our dogs. She sent daily updates with pictures of our babies. She took great care of our house including feeding aquarium fish, koi fish, watering plants and taking in our mail. We highly recommend Rebecca and will most definitely use her again!”


4. Claire W.

“She updated me everyday and sent pictures. The boys were very happy and missed me so much that they said hello to me for 5 minutes and were outside for the next hour🤣. My home was clean and how I left it.”


5. David D.
“First time using in home boarding and it was sooooo nice keeping the pups in home. David was very responsive and sent lots of updates! I felt very comfortable having him stay with the pups and trusted he was taking good care of them.”




6. Dove E.

“It’s been medically necessary for my husband and I to be out of town for a month (possibly longer). Dove has been my angel sent from heaven. My two furry kids love her. She goes above and beyond to take wonderful care of them. She made my husbands day when she bought them both doggie ice cream and sent a video of them scarfing it down. I know I can rely on her so I can take care of my husband. I came home this weekend to unpack and repack and hose is spotless. She has helped me out bringing in freezer packages and mail and even put an ant trap in our mailbox because ants had taken over. Highly recommend!! And then some!”


7. Monroe B.

“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”


8. sophie l.

“Sophie was amazing with our pups. They have missed her since we got home. Dogs had plenty of attention and she even took them on a walk. Will definitely use her again!”


9. Christina D.
“Christina took great care of our pets and our home! Even with freezing temps and 6 inches of snow on the ground, she made sure our high energy pup was exercised and entertained. She sent daily updates and always let us know what she had planned for the day. Our house was very tidy when we got home and the animals were very happy.”


10. Katharine V.

“Katharine was a wonderful sitter for our week away. Rocko seemed very loved in our absence and the house was left in perfect condition. Looking forward to using her services again!”


11. Sara O.

“Very responsive and caring! Asked questions to get more details on how best to care for our fur babies and her and her son made our animals feel loved while we were away. 😊”


12. Michael K.
“Michael is an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker! He's incredibly responsible, caring, and attentive to all my pets' needs. His experience with both cats and dogs is evident in how comfortable they feel with him - they absolutely adore him! What really sets Michael apart is his outstanding communication and follow-up. He keeps me updated and never leaves me wondering how things are going. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a kind, experienced pet care provider who will treat your furry family members with the love and attention they deserve!”

“Liesa kept me updated the entire time she watched Leo and didn’t mind going the extra mile. Definitely will have her watch him again next time I go out of town!”


14. Jadyn D.

“Jadyn was our first dog sitter experience and we couldn’t be happier. We had so much anxiety going on vacation with a brand new puppy. Jadyn had a metal fencing for him, sent pictures and videos of him going on his very first walk and put our worries at ease. We’ll definitely use her again and would recommend her services. We appreciate making our vacation so much for relaxing. ☺️”


15. Alison W.
“If you need someone who will take amazing care of any pet you have, Alison should be your first choice. The amount of love, kindness, and care she feels for every living being on this planet is second to none, and it shows through the way she interacts and cares for any and all animals!”

17. Victoria S.

“Victoria was so great with our puppy during his first time with us away from home. He’s very skeptical of strangers, but we got pictures of them snuggling on the couch the next day! We were able to relax on our trip knowing that he was well taken care of.”


18. Lisa V.

“Lisa was excellent! We are high maintenance with our dog and she graciously took it all in stride and gave him great care, with attention to the details i had written out. She also took good care of things around the house. I had peace leaving our pup and home with her and highly recommend her! :)”
