1. Chris K.

“Chris has done doggy day care with Walter before, but this was the first time I had to leave my pup for so long! Walter came back happy and healthy, and Chris was super great about updating me on his progress and sending the cutest photos!! Thank you Chris!!”


2. Christina S.


“Christina was great with Oakley! It looked like he was having so much fun and getting a good workout on the long walks. Oakley took to her right away and did not miss us at all during our trip. I will definitely use Christina again when Oakley needs a sitter.”




3. Kimberlee E.

“Kim and her whole family took amazing care of Pulcinella and Steve! She kept me up to date of their activities with lots of pictures. The boys had an amazing visit!”


4. Melissa M.

“Melissa was great! Very flexible and accommodating. Our dog Rocco received lots of attention, walks, and playtime with Melissa’s dogs. He came home very happy, calm, and ready to nap!”


5. Roxanna C.

“Roxanna did an amazing job with our pups. She took amazing care of them and it is evident she loves animals. Knowing our pups were taken care of gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our trip. Thank you Roxanna!”


6. Genia O.

“Genia was great, sending pictures of Augie and keeping in tounch as needed. We were very pleased with her accommodating our last minute need for a sitter and for the care she showed our dog.”


7. Jamie M.

“Jamie really helped us out by taking in Buddy on short notice allowing us to meet the sweet newest addition to our family. We could tell he had a very good time based on falling asleep immediately on the drive home. She was very good at communication. Highly recommend.”


8. Lindsay M.

“Like most pet parents, I am very particular about where I send my dog while I’m away. Up until now, I’ve always taken Warren to a luxury boarding resort. This past weekend when I was presented with unexpected travel plans over a holiday weekend I couldn’t get into my regular place. I was very hesitant to book through this app but Lindsay had such high reviews I decided to give it a try. Usually when I have to board Warren the drop offs are a bit emotional as I feel guilty leaving my fur baby. But when I brought him to Lindsay’s house he was so happy, I actually felt good about where he would be staying. Throughout the weekend Lindsay provided numerous photo updates along with a synopsis of how he did that day. All my concerns were at ease knowing he was in such great hands. When it came time to pick him up he was clean, friendly, and exhausted from all his playtime. It was very evident Warren had been given lots of love and attention while we were away. More than he would have received at any pet resort. I highly recommend booking with Lindsay, and will certainly use her services again in the future.”


9. Ivanis L.

“Ivanis did a great job looking after our dog during a long weekend away. She kept us updated on how he was doing and we felt very comfortable knowing he was being well cared for and having a good time on a little vacation of his own!”


10. Lydia K.

“Lydia and her partner take fabulous care of Charlie. He officially whines and does his happy booty wiggles when he sees them for the first time in a long time. so I know he's loving life with them.”


11. Emily S.

“Emily is loving, reliable and a great communicator. She kept me updated through texts and pictures. My Boston Terrier has unique medical needs and Emily was willing to take the challenge. Tucker thrived while in her care. Emily not only cares for your pet but delivers tender, loving care. She will be my first choice for all pet “babysitting “.”


12. Kayla P.
“Kayla did a great job with my little dog Penelope. She has her house arranged perfectly to accommodate so many dogs. She was always quick to respond and flexible with drop off times.”


13. Natalee F.

“Natalee is so kind and caring. We always received updates on Puggy and could tell from the videos and pictures that she really enjoyed her time. Puggy is an anxious dog, and they took such good care of her. I would 100% recommend Natalee and book with her in the future.”


14. Carlie Ann L.

“Bailey's first time away from home (except travelling with family) in her 8 years of life. She wouldn't take her chewable meds, but they were just supplements and not 'real medicine' so no harm done. She probably drove Carlie Ann crazy following her around and sleeping right outside her bedroom door; but neither sitter nor dog seemed much the worse for wear. I guess the real test is whether Carlie Ann will ever invite her back.”




15. Michaela S.

“Michaela did an amazing job watching our fur-baby, Holly. She sent pictures and provided updates; she had amazing communication! I was afraid to leave Holly with a “stranger”, however, Holly loved staying with Michaela! And we felt completely at ease after meeting Michaela, she loves all animals. I cannot stress enough how great the experience was with Michaela, we will definitely be using her in the future! If you need somebody to love your spoiled pup while on vacation, I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to contact Michaela, you will not regret it!!”


16. Katie S.

“Katie does a great job with Finn”


17. Betty G.


“We always use Betty when we need a sitter, and it is so good to know our little one is safe and well cared for! The last time I dropped off Lucy, Lucy hopped right up on the couch and made herself at home! She is a very shy little dog and I loved seeing her so comfortable. Highly, highly recommended!”


18. Andrew P.

“Our dog can be a lot to handle, but Andrew put us totally at ease! His love of dogs is readily apparent and he sent frequent updates, photos, and videos throughout the weekend. Communication was easy, and most of all, our dog had so much fun! We will definitely use Andrew again.”


19. Ryan A.

“Ryan was wonderful to talk to and our baby seemed to have great weekend! We were updated regularly and got lots of fun pictures. Definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets (dogs, cats, fish, etc.) since I was in high school. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am happy to care for cats as-needed as well as any other kinds of pets. My current role is hybrid and quite flexible, which allows me to come and go as-needed while caring for your furry friend(s)! Happy to care for puppies as well as be there for you older pets when they really need someone to hang around the majority of the day! Dogs and pets in general are some of my favorite things to be around - I will love on and care for your pets every need, following any and all instructions you leave me to the letter, including extra treats or walks or belly rubs as you advise!
