6. Megan N.
“Megan is the MOST caring and compassionate dog sitter. She took care of my black labrador (who has some anxiety). Typically when we leave him alone, he can barely last a day, but Megan took care of our fur baby for an ENTIRE WEEK without him causing ANY trouble! She sent us adorable pictures of all their adventures, including ample walks and nighttime cuddle sessions. We cannot thank Megan enough for calming down our anxious pup and standing in as the most nurturing caregiver. I think he could have stayed with her forever! She is a real-life dog whisperer.”

12. Danielle G.
“Danielle was wonderful! She took great care of my dog, and had no problems with both the instructions for her and for the house. (the last sitter didn't follow instructions, and set off the burglar alarm) She also sent several photos with each visit, and was excellent with communication. Heidi and I will definitely contact Danielle in the future!”

18. Brooklyn W.
“Brooklyn was so great and sent so many sweet pictures of our little girl! She made sure she had plenty of attention and play time while she was with her. Would definitely recommend!”
19. Celesteal C.
“CC did a great job caring for my pitties. They’re rambunctious and loud, so I was nervous entrusting someone else to watch them. Especially since Reba has a habit of chewing up pillows. They did a great job caring for my pups and I feel like they were a bit less destructive this go around. They’ve got awful separation anxiety so leaving for any amount of time can be a struggle. CC’s experience with walking larger dogs was definitely a draw”
20. Connor E.
“Connor was really proactive reaching out before the visit to set things up and was excellent at communicating the whole time. My cats seem to have really enjoyed his visit as well. Will rebook in the future!”
