“Maura was a wonderful house/animal sitter. She gave us updates with pictures throughout our weeklong vacation & left our home in pristine condition. It’s always hard to leave your “babies” behind but having Maura there really gave us a sense of relief. We would highly recommend her and have already booked with her again!”



“Angel did a wonderful job with house sitting/pet sitting for me for a week. Plenty of updates and pictures and clear communication. She went above and beyond for my boys and I am very grateful. I will definitely be using her services in the future and would definitely recommend Angel if you want peace of mind while you're away from your pets.”


“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”
