Jo-Ann was wonderful with our senior dog. She gave her daily walks, was punctual and understood the needs of. 16 yr old pet. She took a daily photo while on her walk. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

James was great for Apache. He was on time, communicated throughout and sent me lots of photos which I appreciated very much. James even went out of his way to take Apache for a few car rides (with my permission of course) for different walk destinations. Overall James has been amazing! I will definitely get James to walk Apache again and recommend him to anyone.

Brian is wonderful, and I highly recommend him if you're looking for someone to care for your pup. He so clearly LOVES dogs, and he also has a wealth of knowledge and understanding about their behavior-- I think he could give Cesar Millan a run for his money. I have a special-needs boy who doesn't usually love strangers, but Brian knew how to approach and relate to him in a way that immediately put both of us at ease-- me AND my anxious boy. Brian was attentive, responsive and professional. I know that Rocket is in excellent hands when he's in his care.

Judith is absolutely fantastic with pets! She has been an amazing caregiver to our dog, treating him like her own. She takes him on regular walks, ensures he’s well-fed, and is super mindful about what he can and can’t eat. Judith is incredibly responsible, always making sure he’s safe, happy, and loved. You can tell how much she genuinely cares about animals, and they seem to love her right back! I can’t think of anyone more trustworthy or loving to care for your furry family members. Highly recommend Judith for anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!

Isabel is a wonderful pet and house sitter. I am able to relax when I am away from home knowing that my house and my fur babies are being well cared for. She doesn't hesitate to reach out with questions, requests permission when having a guest over (not needed but appreciated), leaves my home & sheets clean and smelling lovely, leaves flowers when I arrive, brings in the mail, and sends me cute photos of my animals. Very grateful for Isabel!

Isis is my girlfriend, we have been together for going on 8 months, she is a very trustworthy person especially when it comes to animals. I’ve never met anyone in my life who loves and cares about animals as much as she does, if you’re looking for someone to take care of your animal baby she is the best person to do so.

I’m pretty sure my dog likes him better than me. He’s been consistently walking my dog for a couple of weeks now and I firmly believe that my dog forgets I exist when he’s around. Needless to say, Jose is great with dogs!

Addy has stayed at my house twice, each time for around a week, to take care of my 30 pound Pitt mix. She sent multiple photos and daily updates and was very responsive when I constantly asked her other questions about my dog's well-being (as she has some minor health issues). Our dog has a Fi collar which counts her steps and I noticed that she was above and beyond her step goal every das. As she tends to get anxious without enough exercise, I was never once worried that she wasn't having a great time. I was completely comfortable knowing that Addy was not only taking great care of my dog, but taking care of my house as well. When I returned I think that my house was actually cleaner than it was when I left on my trip... Without a question I would hire Addy to watch my pup again!

I highly recommend Tina Torabian as a responsible, reliable, and caring pet sitter. I’ve known Tina for many years, and she has always been someone I can trust completely. Her love for animals is evident in the way she connects with them; making sure they feel safe and cared for. Working remotely allows Tina to dedicate plenty of time to your pets, ensuring they never feel lonely. With Tina, you can rest easy knowing your furry family members are in capable and compassionate hands.

About: In recent years, I have built a strong trustworthy reputation via more than 70 (yep, seventy) 5-star reviews on a leading house/pet care platform. Photos of some were in here, but the system removed them. Happy to share that information with you when we are in contact. Most sits span several weeks, with a 4-week minimum being easiest on the schedule. I do tend to book in advance. Because I have cared for senior pets (several being older than 15: both dogs and cats, some sight or hearing or limb-disabled), administered meds which also includes insulin shots, and managed various sizes and breeds, pet parents and high end homeowners appreciate this reliability and standard. In some cases, we have only Zoomed before a sit, and never met in-person. Due to great reciprocal communication, the results were wonderful. I offer experience both house & pet-sitting, and am a former (& future) homeowner. I’ve had all kinds of pets throughout my entire life. In adulthood, a Lhasa Apso was my co-pilot for 13 years, and I will have others. For now, I enjoy supporting and caring for yours. Let’s Zoom and take it from there. Looking forward. We will discuss this. Historically (for more than 20 years), I have been able to work from anywhere. We can talk through the options together. Unless you hire me for an overnight sit, I will be coming to them for drop-in or other care. I will not be bringing your pet(s) to my location.

Nick has taken care of my dog for many years when I go out of town and sometimes just to walk her when I am busy. He is absolutely wonderful with animals, dogs adore him. He is completely responsible and shows up when I need him and keeps the house perfectly clean when I am away. I would highly recommend him for all of your furry friends.

About: My motto is that it’s my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I’m with your pup , I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it’s my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they’re used to at home . I’m a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as can just come second nature for me ! Although I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far reaching than that. I’ve worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally It’s always great to chat with owners about what makes their pup tick ! Finally , I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all

Bethany is wonderful and my pup adores her! She is friendly, trustworthy and an excellent communicator. She went the extra mile when in-home sitting for my dog by taking her on special outings to get exercise, sending text pup-dates, and she left the house immaculate. I didn't have a single worry while I was away. I highly recommended Bethany and will definitely use her again!

Rachel and Nat are simply the best dog sitters we've ever had! They took care of our pup Frida with such love and attention that we never worried once while we were away. From daily walks to playtime and cuddles, they made sure our dog felt right at home. We appreciated the regular updates and photos they sent, which reassured us that our pup was in great hands. If you're looking for caring, responsible dog sitters who go above and beyond, Rachel and Nat are definitely the ones to choose. We can't recommend them highly enough!
