“Ashley is such a pet lover that you can trust. She recently cared for my elderly Aussie and gave me frequent updates during my time away. She was house sitting in our home and she was completely professional and clean. Highly recommend her for your next trip”
3. Ashley C.
“I don’t think word could do justice for how wonderful Ashley is. She is such a warm and caring person and a joy to have as a company, my baby boy Bomzie for sure had a great time with Ashley. Ashley sent pictures and videos everyday and I could see how she is attentive to Bomzie and play with him because I told her only once that Bomzie loves to play and we always try to stimulate his brain through different games. I for sure will ask her to stay with Bomzie and I recommend her to anyone who wants to go on vacation with a peace of mind.”

12. Joanna C.
“Joanna is a dream pet sitter! Not only did she check in everyday, she shared pictures and sweet little updates. Our homes was left spotless and she even asked if there was anything else she could do for us, wanting our return home to be perfect. Once I met her in person for a meet & greet, it was an undeniable "yes". She has a wonderful attitude and is really playful with the animals. I can't wait to book her again! I'm so grateful I found someone I trust that is such a good person. I could see us being friends even outside of the app (rare). Highly recommend! If I could give six stars I would 🐱🐱🐶”
13. Lidia A.
“Lidia is a complete angel and THE ONLY person I trust my baby with!! I am positive she is treated better at her place than at home. (And trust me she is spoiled). I have a senior toy yorkie who needs a ton of attention and sometimes extra care as she is a diva. Lidia goes above and beyond and treats her like her own. She also has a built in playmate as Lidia’s dog is super friendly and hospitable to visitors in his home!! I love how she knows I have separation anxiety and will send cute pictures and updates throughout the day. If you are in need of a reliable, professional, and super sweet sitter, look no further.”
14. Brittany C.
“Brittany was a phenomenal sitter for our Jackson! She was very quick with responding to us to let us know if she was available! During her stay, she made sure to keep us updated on Jackson throughout the day with messages and pictures! She made us feel comfortable while we were away from our Jackie. Jackson was a super happy pup when we returned and we are definitely going to use Brittany again in the future! Thank you Brittany!!”
15. Unique D.
“Unique was a life saver for me these past two weeks. I don’t usually let anyone other than my sister watch my dog while I’m out of town, but I needed someone fast as my sister and I both were traveling. I found Unique and she was perfect for the job. She came to my house to do everything I asked for with my dog. Nahla has taken to her well and I feel good knowing she was in good care while I was away. Thanks, Unique.”
16. Carolina F.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Nutella! She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated throughout the night. Nutella was happy and well-loved. Highly recommend Caroline for any pet sitting needs!”
17. Sha B.
“Highly recommend Sha as a house/pet sitter! She was very responsive and sent us adorable daily photos of all the pets. We were looking for someone with a calm and kind energy and we definitely found that with Sha. In addition to caring for our dog Wilbur, spending time with him, taking him for daily walks and regular potty breaks, etc., Sha cared for our two cats - one of which can be temperamental and the other is high energy. Sha has a respect for animals and patience that is to be admired and we greatly appreciated knowing that our animals were in good care. Boba, the temperamental cat, was also temporarily needing pills and ointment administered and Sha was able to care for him no prob :) We were able to enjoy our time away worry-free knowing that our babies were being cared for and loved. Thank you Sha! We look forward to booking with you again in the future :)”
