“Audrey was incredibly communicative in specialized instructions for my anxious dog! She was very caring of all the pets, and I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting services.”
“Chloe was so wonderful. During the meet & greet she did great with our dog and cat (even though our cat was not the most social during it) and she was very attentive and took notes throughout. She was fantastic during the stay, she arrived right on time and was sending frequent updates and photos/videos to make you feel like you never even left! She communicated very clearly and it's obvious how much she pays attention to details and really makes the effort to know and love your animals.”
“Hernan took excellent care of Bailey, our golden retriever. Hernan was an excellent communicator. He provided updates and photos, walked and played ball with Bailey. He stayed at our home and was an excellent and tidy guest. We would definitely use Hernan again!”
“Kanika was great with Zubain and Kabira and took wonderful care of the house while we were away. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and happy. We really appreciated the regular updates and the peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Both Zubain and Kabira seemed relaxed and well cared for when we returned. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Here’s a draft for your review: Hannah is an exceptional pet sitter! Our dog usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but Hannah’s calm and patient demeanor quickly put her at ease. She went above and beyond by providing regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. On top of taking great care of our pup, she also helped with our plants, which was a huge bonus. We’ve already booked her for our next trip and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Hannah!”
“Mira took wonderful care of my gang! When I got home they were in great spirits and the house was clean and tidy. She communicated questions and updates and I had no worries while I was away. I will definitely ask her to stay again!”
“Kelly is so awesome with our little grandpa pup. We never worry about him while he’s with Kelly. She’s also super helpful with little things around the house while we’re gone including taking out the trash on trash day while we’re away.”
“This is the 3rd time Suhani has watched our doggies and no surprise that it was another great experience. She is very professional and loved on our babies. We appreciate coming home knowing our house and dogs are well taken care of! We would strongly recommend Suhani to anyone! :)”
About: I have always taken care of pets since I was little ranging from cats and dogs to reptiles to any pet not a person that needed to take care of that near me. I only have two in person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays and other than that I am free no other job except school right now :) I have always taken care of my family’s pet, especially my sisters which her house consist of a golden retriever and a poodle and a Chihuahua. The poodle is very very old and she is an elderly dog, so she’s blind and has arthritis and going to deaf, so I was always used to cleaning up and guided her to the restroom or her food and still focusing on the other pets, giving everyone the proper love and care at the exact same time.
“Alyssa is great. I can always trust her to take care of my senior chihuahua. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy with your special doggos, I highly recommend her”
About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and I have no problem giving them all of the attention they need! I also had a dog walking business in high school that gave me a lot more experience with other dogs! In high school I was also in FFA, giving me even more experience with dogs and even bunnies. As for kitties I have recently had a lot more experience with them and would be happy to give them any amount of love they are willing to accept 😊 I am a full time student, but all of my classes are from 8-12pm so I have a lot of availability throughout the afternoon, evening, and especially weekends! Having some furry friends after classes also sounds wonderful and honestly relieving in some ways so I am happy to help. I would care for your pets by making sure I am cleaning up behind them and keeping them well fed. I am more than happy to follow your specific dietary guidelines and want to do everything I can you make sure your pets feel loved while you're away! That includes giving them some pets and taking them on walks!
“Chrissy accepted a very last minute request to watch two of my dogs. She took time to do the meet and greet even though it was last minute. Chrissy was wonderful and will definitely recommend. You can tell she has a love of animals and that shows in how she cared for them. She communicated often and send lots of pics while we were away. Thank you Chrissy!”
“Lillian did an excellent job caring for Duke and a couple unexpected things around the house. She was prompt courteous and attendant to Duke and the house. I will not hesitate in calling upon her services again in the future. Thank you Lillian you made my trip north more relaxing and enjoyable.”
“Hailey was great to have while I was away. She sent updates and photos of my boys and was very responsive throughout the process. She also took good care of the house and was a wonderful guest. I will definitely ask her to stay again. Highly recommend.”
“Dani is an absolute top notch dog sitter. She watched our dogs and our house over the week of Christmas while we traveled. She made sure to meet the dogs before that week, asked all the important questions, and was patient with our picky little Chihuahua. While we were gone she sent daily photos, clarified anything that wasn’t clear, and made sure our dogs were entertained during a rainy couple of days. She left our house clean and well cared for. I would ask her to dog sit again in a heartbeat.”
About: I have always been one to pet sit since I was young. Recently, I have also worked with dogs and cats in a professional setting through my veterinary medicine career and would love to continue caring for pets I currently have a lot of availability for the week, and can help care for your pet in the afternoons and evenings any day of the week! I have two dogs who live in my house which is fenced and secure. I regularly walk and take my dogs to the park to play. I try to add regular enrichment to their days as well.
“Michaelle was a wonderful sitter for my Kona. She was in frequent contact and send several photos. She even treated Kona to a pup-cup from Starbucks! I am very selective with who I leave Kona with as she is dog-reactive, but felt very comfortable with her in Michaelle’s care. Will definitely book again.”

Audrey was amazing with our Golden. She was communicative, got our pup to play and go for walks (she can be very sensitive), and took such great care of our home while we were away. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for someone they can trust with their animals and home.
Alyssa was absolutely fantastic and made leaving our new pup for the first time so much easier! I could not recommend a better person to watch your pets! I really appreciate all of her help not only with watching our dog, but also with navigating the app and also being flexible to what we needed help with!
Vivian looked after my cat Boots for a week. I was nervous about leaving my cat Boots as this was my first time leaving him for this long, but Vivian was great and communicative. I received daily updates and pictures, and she followed my instructions/routine perfectly. I came home to Boots who was happy, excited, and energetic
Jennifer was great! She did what we asked for and even more, which we appreciated. We received updates throughout the day and she got my Husky so tired that she doesn’t even want to get up for treats lol. We are working on our pup’s separation anxiety, so it was nice being able to count on Jennifer. We will definitely be booking again. Our pup gives her 5 stars too lol 🐶
Our dog and cat were very happy when we returned and Ally was a great housesitter for a few nites. She got the animals out during the day and spent time cuddling them at night. The house was as tidy when we returned as when we left. She was attentive to our dogs needs for walks, even in wet weather, and sent us photos. Thank you Ally!
Nikki is amazing - she had an injury and still was willing to housesit and dog sit for our two sensitive dogs. Her communication is excellent, our house is in impeccable, and most importantly, our dogs are happy and healthy. Thank you, Nikki, for being such an amazing dogsitter!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Alex! From the moment we left the country, we felt completely at ease knowing our boys were in such good hands. The daily photos and updates meant the world to us and it was clear that Alex truly cared for them. Our boys absolutely loved her company! On top of that, coming back to a spotless home was such a thoughtful surprise and made our return so much smoother. We are beyond grateful and would recommend Alex to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. If you’re considering booking her, don’t hesitate, just do it! Thanks again for everything, Alex!
Dahne was wonderful! Our pup is large and a handful, and this was his first time away from us. Daphne worked with him, kept us informed, and got him through some initial sadness and anxiety. Our home and pup were in excellent condition when we got home. We will ask Daphne to sit in the future.
Tiali was a fantastic house-sitter! She quickly earned the affection of our dog, who usually mistrusts sitters for the first few days. We enjoyed all her photos and updates, and the house was in great shape when we got home. Will definitely be looking to have her back with us!
