1. Loren D.


“Loren is fantastic! My pup and cat adored her. She kept me updated while I was away and went above and beyond in caring for my crew. Would definitely recommend!”


2. Caroline A.


“Caroline is absolutely wonderful! She was prompt, showing up right on time. She was very patient with our dog, who is shy and slow to warmup to new people, and did all she could to make her feel comfortable. She kept us informed the entire time and sent photos and cute videos. We highly recommend her!”


3. Alanna F.

“Alanna was great. She was communicative and took wonderful care of my cat, Angel. She sent plenty of pictures and my cat really seemed to enjoy spending time with her.”


4. Ellen Jean P.

“Ellen took good care of my dog and cat while we were away! She was responsive and sent updates on how my pets were doing. I’d definitely hire Ellen again.”


5. Alannah S.
“Alannah watched our golden retriever at our house for 10 days recently! She was wonderful communicating with us regularly & sending photos of our pup. She also walked him everyday! We enjoyed our trip away knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely ask her to watch him again.”


6. Michael P.

“Bertie really enjoyed his time with Michael! Michael's flexible schedule allowed Bertie to have a full time companion which we greatly appreciated.”
7. Kiansu R.

“Our dog takes awhile to get used to people he does not know. Kiansu was patient and we arranged several walks leading up to her staying overnight and taking care of Kona as well as our house. It was easy to work with Kiansu on scheduling and during the stay there were tons of photos as well as pics during the walks. She was able to win Kona over and he’s a big fan of her now. We feel very relieved and comfortable with leaving on overnight trips now and have even arranged for another stay in the coming months. Kiansu is terrific!!!”


8. Hannah R.

“Hannah took great care of our two pups! Regular updates with photos, and she noticed a small issue with one of the dogs (allergies + licking paws). Would book again!”


9. Wenxuan Z.

“Felix was awesome! He goes above and beyond my expectations without even the need to communicate anything with him. He got so friendly with my Bella, they played all the time and he was amazing at sending photos and videos so I knew how my kitty was doing. I found the place looking better than when I left and Bella looks happy and well fed and looks like she had a great time. I am so grateful for Felix”


10. Alexander T.

“He immediately got along with all of our dogs, and they sat next to him, he was playing with dogs and didn't mind the size of our dogs either. Very well-mannered, thoughtful, and great dog sitter - We will definitely ask him again!”


11. Thiri L.

“Thiri is an excellent pet sitter. After our initial meeting, she was proactive in arranging a follow-up visit to pick up the keys, which made us feel confident in her approach. She’s honest, straightforward, and really takes the time to ensure you feel at ease. Throughout our time away, Thiri kept us updated with regular pictures, showing just how well she was caring for Snoopy and Woody. They absolutely adored her, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to Thiri again for future trips.”


12. Hannah W.

“Hannah was fabulous! My usually very shy cat children took a liking to her right away, which is the first for them! She provided constant updates and pictures while I was away, which I appreciated. Would absolutely have her take care of my kitties again :)”


13. Nicole J.

“Nicole house sat for our cats and was wonderful! Very easy to communicate with and friendly. I would definitely book her again and recommend her”


14. Kelsey M.

“Kelsey is our go-to cat sitter. She's caring to the cats and respectful of the home. I'm particularly appreciative of her attentiveness (recently she noticed a small amount of blood in one cat's stool and promptly communicated it to us). Highly recommend.”


15. Deven A.
“Highly recommend Deven! A caring and reliable pet sitter who adores animals. As a devoted cat dad, he’s attentive, trustworthy, and perfect for dog care too!”


16. Kayley E.

“Kayley was great with our rescue pups. We got updates regularly and the dogs loved her. We are very glad to have found her and will be using her services again.”


17. Jennifer S.
“We have relied on Jen to pet sit our corgi, Phillip, many times over the past year and couldn’t be happier. We feel reassured knowing Jen will provide Phillip with loving care, undivided attention, and plenty of exercise. We adore seeing how excited Phillip gets when we drop him off at Jen’s home. Routine check-ins provide us with complete peace of mind while Phillip is under her care. We can’t recommend Jen enough.”


18. Evelyn A.

“My cat has separation anxiety and I needed someone to housesit and stay overnight. Evelyn took amazing care of my car and treated him like he was her own. She sent daily pictures of snuggles and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands while I was away!”


19. Katherine D.
“Kat is an amazing dog walker/house/dog sitter, etc. She's done house and dog sitting for us many times and is incredibly great and trustworthy. She is on time, reviews all of the documentation provided and sends lots of pictures of the pups throughout the vacation/travel. It can be hard to select somebody that you trust enough to watch your house and animals but Kat is great. She cares for everything as if it was her own, which is what makes you feel so at ease. Kat is an animal lover through and through and I couldn't recommend her enough for any of your dog walking, dog/house sitting needs.”


20. Ally B.

“Ally did a fanatastic job taking care of our Cavapoo -- and the home! She was very responsive, caring and attentive to detail ... she made sure he enjoyed long hikes and even a bath. Our Cavapoo warmed to her instantly and I felt total peace of mind leaving him in her care.”
