Kathleen really is the best! I’d give her 6/5 stars if I could. She was not only timely with the girls’ schedule, she sent us updates everyday along with pictures of them. We could tell how much she cared for the girls and we can’t thank her enough. Our cat was dealing with some vomiting issues, but Kathleen was on top of keeping us updated and making sure she was doing ok. We can’t recommend her enough!

Natalie is the best. So reliable and our pup doesn't miss it at all. We had a last minute digestive upset and she was on top of it with special diet, monitoring potty breaks etc. Thanks, Natalie!

Highly recommend Noah for housesitting. He took such great care of my pup and was very attentive to his needs. Sent lots of pictures and updates, which I love. And he left the apartment nice and clean when I came home!! Will definitely be booking with him again.

Annie was such a wonderful companion for our pup while we were gone for a long weekend! She communicated very well with us a couple of times a day sending photos and really putting any anxiety I may have had at ease. When I got home our dog was in a great mood and our place was just as clean as we left it. Will definitely book with her again and highly recommend!

Sabrina and Daniel house sat for my miniature Australian Shepherd Rosie. Rosie is 5 years old and while she is a sweetheart with her family, she is somewhat reserved with people she doesn’t know well. Sabrina and Daniel read her correctly almost instantly. They won her over with patience and a soft and gentle approach and maybe a few treats. ? They made sure she had all of her favorite things while we were gone: walks, play time, sunbathing, cuddle time and overnight company. Sabrina and Daniel kept us updated with texts and pictures which we very much appreciated. Although it was a holiday (Easter) and I would have understood if their time was limited, they were generous with their time and attention to Rosie. The house and yard were just as we left them. I highly recommend!

Margaret is 10/10! Unfortunately, my dog had a medical emergency while I was away, and Margaret handled it with the kind of care and consideration you’d hope for when entrusting someone with your pup. I was on the opposite coast, and her frequent updates and clear communication put me at ease during a stressful situation. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can’t recommend her enough!

Megan is super wonderful and both our dog and cat liked her a lot! Leading up to the dates that she watched Bentley and Blueberry, she was very communicative and was also very helpful in answering all of my questions (this was my first time using Rover). She stayed overnight for 4 nights and sent me great updates each day. She was also very kind and did some tidying up before we arrived home from our trip. She was very flexible and was happy to stay a bit longer if I had any major travel delays. Both Bentley and Blueberry loved her and it was very reassuring to know that my animals had someone there to both take good care of them and keep them company!

I had a great experience having Tyler watch my big Malinois boy! Her communication was top-notch. Despite one of the buses she needed to get over to my place failing to show up, she still arrived in time for me to head out the door on schedule, due to how early she headed out herself. She gave Ash plenty of things to do and he had a great time. Would happily have her watch him again!

Sol was a wonderful house guest/petsitter! This was our first time booking with Sol & I was absolutely delighted by the care they gave my pets, AND my house. Sol was the perfect houseguest. They took our dog for runs, and sent pictures of the pets to check in while we were gone. I would definitely recommend Sol & look forward to booking them again. Thank you so much, Sol! I'm so happy we found you!!

Ian was really great! Cormac has always taken a minute to warm up to people, but I did not expect him to take several days. Ian was amazing and patient with Cormac, he really did not push and made sure to communicate with me and make sure he was doing best by Cormac. Honestly, my only expectation because of Cormacs shyness was that he kept Cormac fed and walked. But Ian still went above and beyond, my first walk with Cormac was probably one of the easiest post sitter walks that I have been on. Without having to be told it was obvious that Ian followed all of cormacs on leash protocol. Could not have been more happy.

Erin is the best. My dog was so well cared for. She normally feels nervous around people, but she felt safe with Erin right away. I got lots of photos of her cuddling, which she only does when she feels safe. Some strange things happened in my building that alerted me and helped my dog feel safe again. My apartment was cleaner than when I left it. They are wonderful.

Megan was so nice! Extremely friendly and instantly made me feel reassured my 4 cats would be in good hands 🥹 our apartment was spotless when we came home and all the kitties got a good brushing. I love that she provided updates and super cute pictures, but made sure to check what our preference was for frequency since we were on a work trip and would be fairly unavailable. Super thoughtful! Highly recommend Megan although I wish she could cat sit only for me 🤭

My kitty and I are lucky to have found Margaret during this hot weather. She made sure my kitty was cool and comfortable, running my window AC and looking after the house. She was patient with my shy kitty and was great with communication, answering my questions and sending photos. Margaret provided a lot of relief from stress, knowing someone responsible was there to care for my baby boy.
