1. Alexis A.

“Alexis was amazing!! She did so great with our boy! We would definitely rebook her again.”




2. Kate P.

“Kate went above and beyond with our two cats that we had to leave for an extended amount of time. We received multiple updates and fun photos each visit. It gave us such peace of mind to know they were safe and being well taken care of. She even updated us on weather conditions and helped prepare our home for an upcoming storm when we couldn’t return home in time. We will definitely be rebooking Kate in the future and know our two boys will be very excited to see us go!”


3. Mariah L.

“Mariah is great with our Frenchie Jax. I love getting the Rover report and reading about their time together. She is super sweet and very attentive. Will definitely continue to use her.”


4. Mimi Y.

“Mimi did an absolutely incredible job during drop in visits to our house. It was the first time our dog had been left home alone, and it went wonderfully!!! Mimi provided lots of photos and followed the provided instructions. Very very friendly and put our mind at ease while being away for the weekend. Highly recommend Mimi and will definitely be using her again! A+++++ We have cameras in the home and could see how happy our girls were to see Mimi every time. Thank you!!!”




5. Lori H.

“Lori did a great job looking after my two cats. She even managed to get the skittish one to play with her. I will be seeking out Lori for future cat-sitting needs, she did an excellent job overall.”


6. Dani E.

“Super pleased with Dani and her efforts to stay in touch with updates and photos. Even with a storm she still kept me updated with schedule changes. She also took care of my plants while I was away. Dani is super sweet and I have nothing but great things to say. Would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy help at home with your pets (or plants!) I will be reconnecting with her in the future for any care I may need in the future with Pep!”


7. Adam C.

“Adam was great with our dog and cat. He made sure to get all the important details on our pets care and made sure they had everything they needed. Our pets were well taken care of while we were gone. Would recommend and plan to use Adam in the future!”


8. Rae V.

“Rachel was excellent in communication both in content and timeliness. She gave us comprehensive updates on our cat and we were well assured of how she was doing. We would book her again in a heartbeat!”


9. Philana L.

“Philana was great watching our puppy while we were at work. She provided lots of feedback on how he was doing and photos!”


10. Kendall G.
“I have the great pleasure of knowing Kendall personally after meeting by chance and subsequently bonding over musical theatre, and of course, our immense love of dogs. As our friendship has blossomed, I’ve had the great pleasure of witnessing her interactions with her own fur babies, and with mine. When I was faced with rapidly changing work circumstances and multiple extended trips away from home prior to my international relocation, I asked Kendall if she would pet sit my 2 fur babies (husky and golden retriever) because I knew they would receive the same amount of (if not more) love, care and affection that I give them myself. I also know her to be trustworthy, sensible, reliable and kind, which made me feel perfectly at ease leaving them with her for extended periods. Kendall has exceptional communication skills and displays confident and competent interactions with dogs at all times. They says dogs are the best judge of character, and everywhere we go, dogs seem to swarm Kendall 🤣 I cannot rate her services highly enough and would recommend her in a heartbeat, as someone worthy of protecting your precious paws whether it be on exercise adventures or more extended, homely experiences. If I were to require dog boarding while I am overseas, I would seriously fly Kendall over to house/dog sit rather than put them in a boarding kennel - THATS how incredible she is!!”


11. Madelynn L.
“Madelynn was the best sitter for my sweet baby. She created an amazing bond with my german shepherd. She would send me pictures and videos of him playing or snuggling in his bed. Maddie is a very welcoming and comforting person. She treats your babies as if they’re her own! If my baby loves her, yours will too!”


12. Rachel D.
“Rachel is someone I describe as having the biggest heart for animals… and humans. She has never not stepped up when I’ve needed her to help care for my cat or doggo when he was still with us. She provides them with amazing care and lots of love. She has her own animals that she might be slightly obsessed with, which I think helps when caring for others - she’s going to treat them as she would like hers to be treated.”


13. Keishla R.

“Great communication and heartwarming photos. I reccomend Keishla to any and everyone.”


14. Rachel D.
About: I’m a big animal lover. I have been around animals all my life and grew up with both dogs and cats in the home. I currently have four older dogs - two of which are my super seniors (15+). I am well-versed in caring for animals with higher need levels and can adapt to almost all care plans. I am currently self-employed so I have a very flexible schedule and have the ability to adapt to someone’s care needs. I will always treat any animal as my own and strive to provide transparency and accountability in the care they receive with me. I am self-employed, and have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available for morning, midday, or evening drop-ins. House sitting typically depends on my schedule but I will always try to make it work if I am able. As of right now I do not offer boarding services, but I will provide transparency when caring for your pets in your home and I will be respectful of your space and care wishes for your pets.


15. Courtney K.
“I will definitely book again with Courtney! We had to go out of town last minute for a funeral while having construction work on our house due to hurricane damage. Our cat was scared and nervous from the construction and Courtney went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable.”


16. Faith G.
About: I’ve grown up with whole life with dogs, so I know the importance of taking care of your 4-legged family member(s) that are important in your life. I want to provide my services so that your fur baby is safe and comfortable in their own home, while you are alway from home. I’ve had small dogs such as jack Russell’s and as big as pit bulls in my family. No fur baby is too big or too small to love and care for. I am currently not working since I am finishing my degree in Nursing. The only work I have been doing is part-time babysitting and dog sitting on the side & weekends. I am mostly available weekdays from 8am-8pm. Weekends can be tricky for me due to other side jobs such as babysitting, so it just depends. Just ask if you have questions about any specific weekend. I currently have a recused pitbull-husky mix living in my home with me, that loves to play all day. She is currently going through heart worm treatment, so unfortunately she is not able to play or visit any dog friends until her vet clears her. Due to her circumstances, I have been able to learn more about pets medication and aiding in helping her through this process. Unfortunately, I can not have any pets in my home until she is heart worm free. However, I am available to help with other pets medications and care for your fur pup in your home.


17. Melissa C.


“Would beg her to come back a million times 🤣 she’s so sweet and great with my dog!! I got all the pictures and videos and knew she was in great hands. Super trustworthy and you won’t be disappointed!!!”


18. Briana B.
About: Taking care and meeting the sweetest, adorable, fun loving animals providing genuine care & quality time with them. Being a caregiver truly warms my heart I’m currently working remote and part time on the weekends. I’m available Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri from 10-6pm, on some occasional weekends I have availability Providing a comforting environment for the pet owner and their loving child to feel safe. I recommend meeting the owner & their child prior to scheduled appointment.


19. Dominique H.
“Dominique has been a great caregiver for our two dogs. He has always treated them like family and that's a delight for us. They just love Dominique! Every time he comes to pick them up, their tails are wagging so fast! He also feeds them on time and takes them out for walks. He's an awesome caregiver and I would recommend him to care for any pet.”


20. Jessica H.

“Jessica is wonderful! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
