Could not recommend Erin more! I was a bit nervous to travel without my dog for the first time but Erin provided so much peace of mind during my trip with her detailed updates and photos. I could tell she spent time getting to know my pup and all her quirks during her visits. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.

Great as usual! Moved into a new place and the transition was seamless! My cat was scared of her new surroundings when I had to leave her for the weekend but Nicholas took great care of her as always!

Patricia was really great with my cat while I was away! She was able to warm right up with with my (sometimes shy) cat Stevie. Patricia was very reliable, communicative, and flexible. Will definitely work with her again!

Elizabeth is wonderful when it comes to caring for our furry friends. She has been incredibly caring and attentive when she has watched my dog for me. She loves dogs, so she enjoys spending quality time with them in her care. She gives them the attention they need and is a great communicator. I would highly recommend her!

I cannot recommend Iris highly enough! She was so kind and patient with my timid pup. She took extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable and cared for. My dog really enjoyed her visit with Iris and I loved working with her. I look forward to booking her again!

Alex is the best! Our normal drop-in visit sitter relocated, so we were nervous about having a new person, but there was no need for any nervousness! Alex communicated early and often - I never had any worry that my dogs weren't being well cared for. His daily notes are so entertaining to read, and his photos are professional level. Best of all, my dogs (a great dane and a yellow lab) got some serious loving and attention from Alex. Absolutely phenomenal.

Raven is a lifesaver. When our automatic feeder stopped working, she walked through with us in troubleshooting and helped check in on our cat with short notice. She was great with him and we would absolutely rebook. Can’t say enough thanks!

Kenichi loves dogs and is a wonderful caregiver to them. I can attest to this having seen his loving interactions with the dogs he has fostered over the years, in the many conversations he strikes up with dog owners enquiring about their pooches, and in the care he has shown our two dogs over the years, Stewie and Bowie. Neither were the easiest of dogs to care for - growly, grumpy, and not the greatest fans of strangers. He won them both over and we felt 100% confident and grateful leaving them in his care. He is communicative, attentive to the concerns of owners, and most of all, a great friend to any dog staying with him. I'd highly recommend his services!

Tracey did a great job with our three cats! She had to follow some special requests for one of the cats and she did an excellent job with that and communicated very well. Plus she sent a lot of pictures which we really appreciated! We will definitely plan to use Tracey again in the future.

Macky has been great watching our two cats, Shima and Fig, while we're away on weekend or long trips. They're always attentive, making sure they stay out of trouble (or documenting the silly trouble they get into), checking in with photo updates, and giving lots of love while we're away. I recommend Macky to help care for your animal companions the next time you need a check-up, walk, or overnight sitter.

Charnetta did a great job — no complaints! My cat can be standoffish with strangers but Charnetta wasn’t phased by the hissing and seemed genuinely excited to spend time with my grumpy little cat haha. Would recommend!

About: I have always grown up with a dog and have taken care of my neighbors as well growing up and love going on walks with them I am currently a college student who is also a varsity athlete so I love to exercise and get active, and I love bringing my dog with me on walks and hikes however she is getting a little older. I am looking to help look after any local pets in my area as I enjoy being around them so much and love to be outside. I live in a very safe neighborhood about 7 minutes walking from rock creek park. I love to take my own dog on walks in the nature or even hikes in the area.

I've known Caris for 5 years now, and they are wonderful with our pets, both dogs and cats. Caris has endeared themselves to our animals and always has a calm and peaceful presence , making it easy for our pets and ourselves to connect and relax with them. Caris is reliable, responsible, steady, and truly cares for us and our animals. We could not recommend them highly enough.
