“Came home to a happy dog. Raimy provided helpful photos and updates during the visit. Though we did not meet in person, she accommodated my needs by meeting virtually over video-conference before hand. I especially appreciated her willingness to dog / house sit on such short notice!”

“Nancy took care of our golden retriever, Rosie, for four days in our house. She was wonderful. Very responsible. I felt completely at ease while we were away. She took great care of our dog and our house. I would recommend her without hesitation.”


12. Mayella V.

“I can't recommend Mayella enough! She house-sat and took care of my cat while I was on vacation, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Right away I could tell she was a kind and trustworthy person that I'd feel totally comfortable staying in my home. Her communication was excellent—I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me peace of mind. My home was just as tidy as I left it. She even left a thank you note folded in the shape of a cat, which was such a nice touch to come back to. Most importantly, it's clear that she truly loves animals. My cat, who can be a little shy, warmed up to her quickly, and I could tell she was well cared for. It seemed like my cat didn't even miss me 😂. If you're looking for a reliable, kind, and professional pet sitter, Mayella is the best choice!”


13. Amanda L.

“Amanda was just great. She was very responsible and respectful and very communicative. She sent us pictures of Buddy and kept us informed of what he was doing. We felt very comfortable about being away knowing that Amanda was there. We found everything spotless when we returned and we really appreciate that! We'll certainly have Amanda back!”


14. pauline g.

“Pauline is an excellent dog sitter! She not only was super communicative with us (lots of photos and updates) and responsible, but very loving and attentive to our Labrador retriever. Highly recommend. Already booked her for another stay 🐶”


15. Taresh D.
“Taresh is a great pet sitter and carer! He not only is knowledgeable of how to groom, feed, walk, and care for a variety of pets and animals. His attention to detail is seen in his approach in how he is patient and kind with others and animals. Any pet owner would be lucky to have him care for their little fur babies!”


16. Leonella V.
“Leonella is a natural with taking care of animals! Very loving and has 3 of her own. Very responsible and reliable ! Very attentive to their needs”


17. Teddy S.
“Teddy watched my cat Winston while I was away on holiday. Not only did they provide perfect care for Winnie, I also received adorable updates from Teddy the whole time. The quality of care is obvious from how much Winston loves Teddy! Can’t recommend them enough!”


18. Ellie R.
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Ellie care for our pets while we were away, and we couldn’t be more pleased with her care and dedication. Ellie is a bright, energetic, and incredibly responsible college senior at Yale University, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. Having grown up with both dogs and cats, Ellie is experienced with animals of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who require special attention. She has a natural ability to connect with animals and has a calm, nurturing demeanor that makes them feel at ease. We were especially impressed with her experience in giving medications and handling pets with health concerns, as it gave us peace of mind knowing our pets would receive the best possible care. Ellie is also an excellent communicator—she kept us updated regularly with photos and updates on our pets, which made us feel connected while we were away. It was clear that she went above and beyond to ensure our animals were happy, safe, and comfortable in our absence. We wholeheartedly recommend Ellie as a pet sitter! Her maturity, experience, and deep love for animals make her an ideal choice for anyone in need of a reliable and caring sitter.”


19. Sedona P.
“Sedona has cared for our two dogs (Doberman and Labradoodle) along with our three cats! She is very conscientious and loves pets. For the dogs, Sedona is very athletic and takes them out for walks and ball retrieval games often. I have no hesitation recommending Sedona you and your pets will be pleased”


20. Heather M.

“It’s hard to go away when you have a senior dog who is arthritic, deaf and can’t see. It’s a huge comfort to know that he and our other pup are being looked after by someone as caring as Heather. She is the best!”
