Brigit was GREAT! Very thoughtful and communicated often to let us know how everything was going. We came back to find our crazy, energetic puppy a calmer puppy. Our older dog initially had some trust issues but Brigit kept working with him and when she came to drop the key off it was obvious that that was no longer an issue since he was so excited to see her. Thank you for taking such great care of our babies! I would definitely recommend Brigit!

As always, Ava takes great care of my Tallulah & Dennis. Always prompt and arrives when she says. I’m so appreciative of the great care she gives my 2. Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.

About: In college I was a house and pet sitter. I have had pets since I was in elementary school and am now a senior. I currently have three dogs of my own. I’m emotionally intelligent and good to work with. I work a half day as an Occupational Therapist educator in Wednesdays and as an OT practitioner on Fridays. I would be available in the afternoons on these days. I will not take care of pets in my home but am happy to come to yours to care for, walk, pet and feed your fur babies.

Leah was more than a dream come true for me. My dogs gravitated towards her and she was very thoughtful and thorough with her care. I couldn’t ask for more from her. Leah sent many photos and videos and made sure to help even my anxieties. So fortunate to have found Leah!

All dog owners need a Lily in their lives. This was my first time having a stranger watch my dogs and it was so smooth. I have a land hippo and fluffy medium sized dog. Lily was kind and loved on the pups while I was gone. She asked how many updates we wanted and always sent photos to accompany updates. I will be booking with Lily again in the future, without a doubt.

Ethanee was so great with our anxious small dog Holly, who also just happened to injure herself right before our trip out of the country, so she needed medication and special treatment during our week away. Ethanee was communicative, sending us lots of updates, and left our house in great shape. Holly has a hard time with new people, but seemed to warm up to Ethanee right away! We felt so relieved that she was in good hands, and wouldn't hesitate to book Ethanee again!

Alexus was so sensitive to our nervous pup, Rusty’s needs! He’s new to us and was anxious about us going out; he apparently was jumping up thinking we were home every time the heat came on, so she turned down the temperature so he could be more relaxed. Thank you so much, Alexis!

Our 14YO female heeler bonded immediately with Aarti and she was probably sad when we returned. I like Aarti because she returns texts and requests in a very timely manner. We got photos from her every day which helped to ease any anxiety we had about using a new dog sitter. Her background as a vet assistant also eased our minds with our dog's history of Cushings disease. We travel a fair amount and are looking to have Aarti care for our girl in the future. Five stars for sure.

Greg spent three weeks at our house looking after our beautiful dog Misty. Greg was wonderful, he cherished and cared for Misty as if she were his own. He also looked after the house, and kept us informed with pictures, videos, and texts, we have no complaints. I highly recommend Greg; you will not be disappointed.

We were out of town when our dog sitter called and she had to go to the hospital. Jamie and Patrick stepped up big time and saved our vacation. I was so worried about my dogs and I was so far away from them, but she assured me not to worry she had it covered. She took exceptional care of my dogs and baked me a pie! They are absolute life savers!!

Highly, highly recommend! Denise is a caring animal lover with heaps of experience from all her work at the animal humane. My rescue felt comfortable with her very quickly and was well cared for during the week+ that I was away. On top of that, my house was in great condition when I got back. Thanks, Denise, for the daily photos, clear communication, and for being so great at what you do!

We had an absolutely amazing experience with our house and pet sitter! She stayed in our home and took such great care of everything. She even left the house exactly how we left it—if not better. We have three dogs (both large and small) and two cats, all ranging from young to elderly, and she handled all of their unique needs so well. She administered medications properly and made sure every pet was comfortable, safe, and happy. She adapted to what my pets needed to feel comfortable at night which I think is amazing! Honestly, I think our animals were more excited to see her than they were to see us when we got home—they were hoping it was her walking through the door! That says everything. She was also very proactive, reaching out ahead of time to gather all the necessary information and ensure everything went smoothly. Her communication throughout was outstanding—very detailed, consistent, and reassuring while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring.
