1. Stephanie P.
“We used Stephanie to care for our two Cane Corso's while we were away for a week out of the country. She was excellent! She confirmed a week before as well as the day before, arrived early and gave us daily updates with great feedback and cute photos. Our dogs can be intimidating to new people but Stephanie felt right at home with them and they loved her. We arrived home to calm, happy dogs and a spotless house. She even had a little doggie gift for our pups! We are so happy to have found such an amazing caregiver for our pups. We will absolutely be booking her again.”
2. Leticia D.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my 2 cats in Leticia’s care. Very reliable and consistent with timing. I received daily updates including photos. I highly recommend Leticia for your pet sitting needs.”
3. Mia U.
“My dog Enzo (~70 lbs) has severe anxiety and I’m not able to bring him anywhere as a result, and is also incredibly clingy and attention hungry. The combination has not made it easy to find care for him to say the least! Recently I had to travel for work and family wasn’t around this time to help, so I tried to find someone to house sit so he would at least be in his element. I was incredibly nervous for his behavior, but it was unnecessary because Mia was AMAZING with Enzo from the start. She was incredibly patient and sweet with him, thorough with her communication, sent lots of videos and pictures, and even made sure my home was okay. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and she’ll be back in the coming weeks!”
4. Sherylee C.
“Sherrylee went above and beyond with our three month old rescue puppy. Can’t thank her enough for her professionalism, effectiveness, kindness and patience. Highly recommend this wonderful caregiver.”
5. Yvette B.
“We have had excellent dog sitting experiences with Yvette!

7. Lia F.
“Lia is a phenomenal house sitter who took amazing care of our two dogs while we were traveling out of town. It’s clear that she clicked with our dogs, and they became instant friends. She stayed in touch with us and provided timely updates throughout. She followed our instructions closely and even made sure to clean our apartment before leaving. We will definitely become repeat clients of Lia!”
8. Cindy C.
“Cindy was absolutely wonderful! She helped out after a sitter cancelled last minute, came early to meet our nervous pup, and stayed a half hour longer just to make sure she got her full time outside. I couldn’t be more thrilled and highly recommend her!”
9. Charlie U.
“The dog was happy and the place was standing. In the end that's all that matters but a decent person who communicates well with an honest smile on their face and a personality to match makes the whole thing run smoother.”
10. Andrea N.
“We were very happy with Andrea as our dog sitter! She was very attentive and communicated well, which gave us peace of mind while we were traveling!

Andrea sent photos and videos, and we could tell that she enjoyed spending time with them too!”
11. Maryann C.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 14, walked and fed them along with my family. Also have dog sat for friends and family. I am currently unemployed and job searching so available most times.

“Dayelle took great care of my two pups and followed instructions I left for her. She stayed in touch while I was away to give me updates. Highly recommend her!”
14. Michael K.
“Michael was amazing - took care of all three animals including our paralyzed dog. He not only fed and carried him around as needed (not easy with a 70 lb lab), but was very thoughtful in spending playtime with the animals and keeping us posted every step of the way. We have rebooked Michael for this weekend and plan to do so again in the near future. Nothing but glowing reviews”
15. Julie L.
“Julie L. was so caring and sweet with my dog. This was the first time I was boarding my dog Dior. I was quite nervous but Julie eased my mind from the meet and greet a few day before. It was obvious how much she cared for dogs. She keep me posted how Dior’s day going. Dior loved her and got comfortable so quick!! Can’t wait to book another care with Julie in the future.I highly recommend her. Thank you so much Julie!!”
16. Christine J.
“Christine has been a loving cat and dog owner herself. She has taken care and walked my two dogs. They both love her. She gives them the love, attention, and affection that they need. It’s so hard to find someone that cares for your dogs like you do, but Christine does just an amazing job. My dogs are always excited to see her. Highly recommend Christine and her abilities to take care of any type of dog, big or small.”

20. Allison D.
About: I’ve been lucky enough to have a dog or dogs almost all my life. I also love helping out neighbors & caring for their dogs. I work from home, for the most part, so my schedule is pretty flexible, which also helps to ease the minds of any anxious pups. I have a fenced in yard with lots of space to run around and hang out. My neighborhood is also pretty quiet for nice, safe walks.
