3. Frankie K.
“Frankie is a terrific pet-sitter—very friendly, very thoughtful and always trustworthy. She has stayed over at our apartment a few times now and she always communicates thoroughly with us every day that we’re away, sending wonderful photos of our two cats. The cats (and the apartment) always look great when we get back. It’s nice knowing the cats are in such good hands. We recommend her very highly!”

11. Raja D.
“Raja was excellent!!! It was clear at the meet and greet that he is an experienced dog handler, which is important for us as one of our dogs has some leash reactivity and impulse control issues see are working on. During our trip Raja kept us up to date daily with photos and videos and he left our home in immaculate shape, even taking his garbage out without being asked! Very glad to have connected with Raja and will definitely book again.”
12. Brenda O.
“Brenda was amazing!! This was my first time leaving my dog for an international trip, so I was already extra anxious around leaving her. From the moment Brenda got here, she was overly communicative (in the best way), sending lots of pictures and updates. She sent me daily pictures and an update on how my dog was doing, without me having to ask, and it was clear from the pictures that Millie was in great hands. Brenda was also very communicative leading up to my trip, scheduling a FaceTime and an in-person meet and greet with me. I am extremely happy with the care and attention Brenda gave to Millie and my apartment, and I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
13. Michael R.

14. mila S.
“Mila stayed at my apartment for 6 nights looking after my senior cat. From the start she was communicative, present, and her love of animals shone through. While I was gone she gave me regular updates and was quick to respond to me. It was a relief to know that my sweet cat was in good hands while I was out of town, I definitely recommend Mila for pet care and house-sitting.”
15. Isabella M.
“Isabella was great as a house sitter to watch our dog, Phoebe! We had her watch out senior dog for the weekend and she was very attentive and communicative. Our dog doesn't always like new people but she hit it off with Isabella instantly. We would definitely work with her again!”
16. Amanda & Kellen G.
“Amanda and Kellen were amazing with daily updates and pictures. The apartment was very clean and respected. Peaches was so happy and lively when I got home. I would definitely rehire them and hope they are available the next time I need a sitter”
17. Lindsey H.
“Lindsey was so amazing watching our girl! She was super communicative and so easy to coordinate with. Our pup was super happy when we arrived home :)”
18. Isaiah S.
“Isaiah was such an attentive and responsive sitter. They loved my girls and watched over them just as we would, and I’m so eternally grateful to have been able to book them. They sent many pictures and updates on our 3 day trip, which made it so much easier to lay back and relax while away from the babies. I will definitely be booking them again in the future and truly could not recommend you book with them enough. Thanks so much Iggy! <3”
19. Benjamin H.
“Buddha loves Ben and he does a great job taking care of him.”
20. Asher B.
“As long as I have known him, Asher has had a love for dogs and has been a great caregiver. Growing up he had dogs that he formed loving connections with. When meeting his dog for the first time, it was clear that the dog felt safe and comfortable around Asher. He also won over my dog, which is not the easiest feat as she does not like meeting new people. But with Asher she warmed up to him quickly and even opted to cuddle with him instead of me. Asher is gentle with dogs and is pays great attention to their needs. I whole heartedly recommend him as a responsible pet caregiver.”
