“A pet sitting angel! I was freaking out because of a last minute cancellation from another sitter, but Alex came to my rescue and took over the booking. Turns out that the other sitter cancelling was the best thing that could have happened because Alex is everything I could ever want from a sitter. They were incredibly responsive to my messages, they gave frequent updates throughout the day complete with photos, they administered medication to both my cats, they went above and beyond to even clean up the place while I was away…but most importantly, my boys seemed to absolutely adore them! Absolutely a 10/10 ✨”
“Kyrstin watched my 14 year old Chihuahua/Corgi mix over the Martin Luther King day weekend. Kyrstin did the best job with Nuni. She is very caring, patient and helpful. She followed all the instructions for Nuni's care to the letter. He went to the vet on the Thursday before I left and started a new medication. Kyrstin gave him his medication and didn't even hesitate at the challenge of caring for an elderly dog with health issues. Kyrstin was also very respectful of my home and left everything as it was when I left. I would definitely recommend Kyrstin the care for your pets and will most definitely ask her again should the need arise. Thank you so much Kyrstin for taking such good care of my buddy!!”
“This was the second time Erika cared for my cat, Roxy, and she did a wonderful job. As always, she was attentive, reliable, and thoughtful in her care. She followed instructions to a tee and spent quality time playing with Roxy and working on her puzzles. I especially appreciated her detailed updates and the many fun photos she shared, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she truly understands Roxy’s personality and routines. I returned to a relaxed, happy cat and a home that was clean and well cared for. She also took extra steps preparing my home for my return, which was a thoughtful touch. I would happily trust her to care for Roxy again and confidently recommend her to others.”
“My cat always has a great time with Lucinda! I’ve used her several times now and know that he is always in good hands. Lucinda is a true cat lover and will take great care of your little nugget!”
“Rachel was awesome! She communicated with us often, sometimes twice a day, and sent pictures as well. She offered to take on another household task that required attention while we were gone, which was very helpful and gave us extra peace of mind. We appreciated her positivity and her generous spirit. Our dog got regular daily walks, including long ones, which he loves! Rachel will be moving on from our local area, otherwise we would be definite repeat clients for sure!”
“Alyssa took great care of Leia and our home! She kept in touch regularly and sent photos of Leia throughout the day. Would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter!”
“Heather was wonderful! Chet had such a good time with her. She did the best job of keeping us informed on how they were doing and the worry-meter went waaaaay down. The house was in excellent condition and the yard was completely clean. Great job, Heather! You made a stressful trip worry free, as far as our beloved pet was concerned. Thank you SO much!!!”
“Susan did a great job on a long weekend stay with my 2 dogs. She was communicative, flexible thorough and sent regular updates. Most of all the pups were happy and calm when we arrived home. Will definitely hire again.”
“I had a great experience with Malissa. The thing that I appreciated the most is her communication. I always knew everything about my doggo and how he is doing and I got pictures every night. She even contacted me with weather warnings during the big storm Portland had during my travels and was willing to stick around if my flight got canceled. Will recommend and rebook for sure.”
“Alex is incredible! My dog Bear is usually aggressive with new people, but he warmed up to Alex immediately, which speaks volumes about his calm and trustworthy energy. He followed all instructions perfectly and kept us updated the whole time. Coming home to a vacuumed house and fresh sheets on the bed was such a thoughtful, unexpected touch. We will 100% be booking Alex again and can’t recommend him enough!”
“Lynden was wonderful and my pets were very happy when I got home. I especially appreciated that she took Kirby for a run… Kirby loves to run, and I am sure Lynden was faster than me. Definitely will have her back!”
“Adriana was fantastic with our Bengal cat Diego. Communication was great and we can tell how much effort she put into interacting with him and keeping him entertained while we were gone. She went above and beyond not just with Diego, but even washed all of the bed sheets and towels she used which is far more than we ever ask from guests who stay with us. She did an amazing job and we'll be booking her again!”
“Lisa was a wonderful sitter for my pup. I was leaving my pup for 8 days, the longest I’d ever left him. He has some anxiety, so I was really anxious about it, but she put my mind at ease immediately. She spent lots of time with him, sent me lots of updates and overall it went really well. Charlie is looking forward to Auntie Lisa staying with him again!”
“Sara was wonderful! We’ve got a dog with a pretty intense med schedule and she handled it no problem. Our pets were happy, the house was clean, and Sara was an absolute joy! We’ve already booked her for another stay!”
“Dustin was very prompt with communication and sent frequent pictures and videos of our pups on our trip. Our older dog can be stubborn and picky about taking her meds, and he was patient with her and able to get her to take her medications, so that really says a lot to us. We will be using Dustin’s services again for our next trip in October too.”

An absolute gem! Hayley was not only here for our BIG baby, but spoiled her w/all the love, cuddles, lap time, treats & attention in our absence that we would have, if we were home. Our Murphy Quinn was right at home with her in our home. We couldn't be happier w/the constant communication & plethora of pictures Hayley sent of our girl having a good ol' time w/her new bestie! Our little family has grown by +1, thankfully to our newest (& hopefully continued) addition of Hayley. She is now our go-to gal for ALL of our, walking, drop-in & dog stay/sitter needs. Thank you, Miss Hayley!
Michelle was wonderful with our dog and cat while we were gone for 5 nights! It was so nice to get check-in messages and photos and know that our babies were getting great care while we weren’t able to be there. Our house was left spotless and we couldn’t be more appreciative!
Erika took great care of my cat while I was away. As always, she spent plenty of quality time with my cat, Mitten, and it was clear how much she enjoys being around her—and my cat LOVES her too! I could tell from all the photos she sent me. One thing I especially appreciate is the detailed daily updates she provides, along with lots of photos. They give me so much peace of mind and allow me to see how Mitten is doing each day. Since I'm away, that's really the only way for me to know how my cat is doing, so I truly appreciate the consistent updates and communication. Thanks again, Erika, for taking such great care of Mitten and my place!
Kathryn took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She provided great care, and I came home to a happy, well-loved cat. As an added bonus, Kathryn cleaned and organized my place before she left, which was such a pleasant surprise after traveling! It was wonderful to return home knowing my cat had been well cared for and that everything was neat and tidy. Thank you so much, Kathryn!
If I could give Michelle ten stars I would! She helped us out when we were in a bind and was very flexible. She was great with our dog and two cats and provided updates regularly. I could tell our dog was genuinely happy to have her around. And she left our house spotless. Highly recommend!
Amora was wonderful with Georgie. She messaged me regularly and sent photos. The house was clean and tidy and Georgie was so happy and relaxed when I got home. Her experience with bully breeds and big dogs in general was an extra perk. I felt totally confident leaving Georgie with her. I will definitely have her back!
Ian did an absolutely fantastic job watching our cat Stella while we were away. From start to finish, his communication was outstanding. He kept us updated regularly, sent plenty of pictures, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing Stella was in great hands. It was clear he genuinely cared about her and took the time to make sure she was comfortable and well looked after. On top of that, we came home to a house that was in excellent condition and incredibly well cared for. We would absolutely book Ian again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful pet sitter.
Libby’s great. Third or maybe fourth time we’ve used her. Past stays were just long weekends but this time was a full week. Daily check-ins and photos. Our dog had a health thing come up and she stayed on top of it and kept us posted the whole time. Easy to reach. Flexible. Put the trash cans out, brought in packages. House looked great when we got back. We’ll definitely hire her again.
