Andrea is fantastic! She watched out two dogs and our home for 5 days while we were out of town. She sent many photos and was very communicative, which we really appreciated, and she was so sweet with the dogs. I can tell they were very well cared for while we were gone. We would love to have Andrea back the next time we travel!

Ray was absolutely amazing, with our senior dog. He listened to all of my advice and took everything I asked him to do very seriously, took him on a very long walk to the forest like I had asked. Overall, I would higher Ray again in a heartbeat if i'm going out of town or just if I need somebody for the day.

Diane was such a blessing. She has a really sweet and caring demeanor and we knew right away she was the right sitter to watch our fur babies. In our week long trip she took great care of our home and 2 dogs and kept in touch throughout our trip. We feel relieved to have found her and will definitely rebook with her. Thank you Diane!!

Hugo was very relaxed, unstressed, and a little tired when we returned home, all the signs of a good weekend. We felt 100% comfortable knowing Dorothy had it handled and Hugo would absolutely love to see her again!

About: My name is Daniella. I am 24 years old and working with animals is what my life is about. All my life I have had my own pets and I have also worked at an animal hospital for the past 8 years! I am a college graduate with a degree in Biology and I’m here to make sure your fur babies are happy and safe! I have lots of experience with animals and I love any kind. You have a cat? No problem! 5 dogs? (It’s okay I do too!) consider me to watch your lovely animals! I promise that I won’t let you down! I am currently a full time vet tech! I am free pretty much every Sunday and Wednesday and Saturday afternoons after 3pm. I am off some Mondays as well. I would love to be able to work with your schedule as well! Bringing pets into my home won’t always be an option for me but I am more than happy to stay at your home to watch your fur babies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats myself so bringing in other pets does not always work well for my little guysz

To whom it may concern, I’m happy to recommend Hailey Salgado for the position for a pet caregiver/walker. Not only is she responsible and trustworthy, she is also kindhearted and genuinely caring towards everyone she has come across. Hailey has looked after my dog several times and I cannot recommend a more capable person for the job. She puts the effort into every part of the care whether it’s a big or small task. Whether it’s making sure the dog is being properly fed, playtime or just hanging out and keeping them company. Just know she will do everything with a smile on her face and from the kindness in her heart. You can count on her to go the extra mile not just because she has to, but because she genuinely loves animals and cares for them like her own. You can trust her to follow any care instructions and is easy to communicate with.

Dorothy stayed with our Labrador Retriever, Koa, for several days while we were out of the country. Everything was great! She was able to spend lots of time at home with Koa, keeping more or less the same routine that Koa has when we’re here. She also sent a few updates with pics. When we arrived back, the house was just as we had left it. Such peace of mind to find someone you trust with your “furry child” and your home! Dorothy’s terrific.

Sergio went above and beyond for us! This was our first time hiring him and the big storms that we had caused some unexpected problems and Sergio really helped us with that as well. Our pets seem to have gotten very comfortable around him within a short period of time. We came home to all of our animals happy and healthy, our house in the shape that we left it in and he gave us peace of mind while away on a much needed family trip! Recommend and will definitely hire him again when/if he is available.

Naylah was excellent with my anxious pup. She took care of everything and it was such a comfort knowing my dog was safe and happy at home.

Ashley’s daily presence in our home during our recent vacation was a great comfort to us and our crew of three dogs. We our so thankful that she made our trip possible and free of a concern about our dogs’ welfare. They adore her and were so happy that she got to have an extended sleepover!

Veronica stayed at our house overnight to watch our dog Maggie for a week. She sent lots of updates and was very responsive. She offered to take out our trash on garbage day and left our house spotless. We will surely use her again!

Grace has watched our pets for us a few times now and has always been wonderful! We always feel confident that our cats and dog are being well cared for while we are away. We’d recommend her to anyone!

Another great stay with Kyrra! She is warm and caring with my dog and took good care of her while I was gone for the longest stretch I’ve ever left her for. The house was just as I left it.

Jenny was great from the moment I reached out. Wanting to come by for a meet and greet, booking way ahead b/c of holiday, when it got closer she came by again to refresh. Great peace of mind before we left. And then went above and beyond while she was here. Pics, notes. So gracious and professional. Great with both dogs too. Thank you again!
