“Alex and Christina were very sweet. They sent lots of updates and spent a lotttt of time with our separation-anxiety cat while we were away for the week, and she seemed perfectly content when we returned home! We were glad to have them to help us!”
2. Sarah C.
“"I cannot recommend highly enough! She took exceptional care of my dog, Maserati, while I was out of the country to Italy. We were not worried for his care one time. We were able to receive updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, healthy, and well-exercised when I returned. If you’re looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter, Sarah is by far best choice!"”
3. Natalee C.
“Natalee has stayed with us three times and we will definitely use her services again! She is trustworthy and really cares about our pups. She has been very accommodating and communicative and very conscientious. She took it in stride when we added a new puppy to the mix and again when our dog was having tummy issues, providing regular updates and even took a trip to the vet to make sure all was well. It turns out our dog recognizes her car driving down the street and gets so excited to see his friend!! Thank you Natalee!”
4. Becky G.
“Becky is wonderful. She is professional and caring. She took the time to meet Tahlula and Scarlet about a month before our trip and then came back a few days before to meet them again and walk through their feeding instructions with us. She checked in with us and sent pictures throughout our trip. I would recommend Becky to anyone.”

9. Karli J.
“Kiwi is wonderful! This is my second time having them watch my pup and it was another great experience. I love that I receive a daily summary with pictures of my pup from throughout the day. It is also wonderful to come home to a clean house. Looking forward to having Kiwi stay again later this month!”
10. Izzy Y.
“Izzy took care of my two Huskies for three days, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She has a genuine love for animals and was very responsible. My dogs absolutely adored her and were well taken care of, with plenty of exercise and affection. Izzy was professional, punctual, and kept me updated with photos and messages. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Izzy, for taking such great care of my Huskies!”
11. Gage W.
“Gage was super nice, Prince liked him instantly. Thanks again!”
12. James P.
“James is the best. He really melted Tuggy’s heart and is such a great caregiver! He stayed with Tuggy most days and nights! He stayed until we got home Sunday afternoon. He sent us multiple pictures to put our minds at ease so we could really enjoy our weekend away with family! The best thing was how calm Tug seems now that we are home — he is not frantic and clingy as he often is when we get back. I recommend James. He’s reliable and really loves dogs! Thanks James. We and Tuggy hope to see you soon. Shari.”
13. Theron T.
“Theron was responsible and very kind to our puppy. Definitely would book him again. An excellent pet sitter!!”
14. Cassondra A.
“Cass is one of the kindest souls I know. They have a boundless love for animals of all varieties and go out of their way to treat any animal kindly and with consideration.”
15. Madison B.
“Madison did an outstanding job caring for our girl! She was responsive from the get-go and from the initial meet-and-greet, I could tell she was a kind, gentle, and patient person--which was really important for our sensitive and fearful dog. She was careful to note all the daily particulars of our dog's care but more than that, was intuitive about her body language and good and knew just how to read and interact with her--clearly, she has experience with dogs! I was very nervous to leave our new dog for the first time, but Madison's preparation and communication put me at ease. She double checked instructions, checked in regularly with photos, and was very accommodating to the particularities (walking equipment, meals, meds, etc) of our dog's care. She even worked on a little training with our dog, reinforcing some of the work we had begun; she was brave enough to tackle the challenge! Madison has a warm and caring demeanor, which I think dogs sense too! As a pet owner, I was completely at peace during my time away--I know our dog was in great, responsible hands and I had nothing to worry about. Madison's confidence and capabilities did a lot for me and my dog. She took wonderful care of our home as well! I returned home to a very happy and healthy pooch, who I suspect had an even better vacation than I did :) I am very grateful and will certainly be rebooking. Look no further for your pet care needs--Madison gets my highest recommendation, without reservation! :)”
16. Maddie K.
“Maddie is a fantastic sitter and we love having her watch our pups. She is communicative, caring, excellent with meds, and our 15-year-old grumpy old lab mix clearly loves her. When she stays in our home, we feel complete peace of mind being away and knowing that our dog is safe and happy. Thanks again, Maddie!!”
17. Megan N.
“We loved having Megan stay with the girls. The girls were so happy and content when we returned, and the house was left in great condition!”
18. Gabi S.
“Gabi was wonderful with our dogs! The weather was hot just as our AC broke and she was sure to keep them cool and comfortable. Would highly recommend her!”
19. Morgan S.
“Morgan is fantastic and reliable! She was very sweet and attentive with my doggies. Every minor request we asked of her, she overdelivered. She sent me updates and pictures everyday and my babies looked very happy. I would definitely recommend!”
20. Alisa G.
“Alisa was able to help lucky last minute and we are very appreciative. Thank you for taking such good care of him and sending pics.”
