Lavinia did a wonderful job watching my dog. She took him on daily walks and kept me updated when with pictures while we were gone. It was great to not have to worry while we were gone.

Nikole was amazing!!!!! She took care of our favorite child, our mini- schnauzer, watched our cats and fed all 90 of our fish in our fish tanks while house sitting for a week. She updated us multiple times a day, sent videos, photos, and was clear with communication. She took great care of our house shoveled our driveway without being asked and left it in tip top shape. We walked in to a clean home with soft music playing on the tv with videos of dogs playing to keep our pop occupied. She travels with our highest recommendation and we plan on using her all the time moving forward!

I'm so thankful that John was able to care for my dog, especially during the holidays! John was very respectful and kind; trying to maintain my dog's daily routine while we were away. My dog can also be a bit difficult in warming up to strangers and with other dogs, but John was great at understanding and working with Wally's behavior. Would recommend John's services at any time!

Amazing!!! Could not recommend Morgan highly enough!!! She house and pet sat our dog, quaker parrot, rat, and fish for about a week and did a fantastic job! We recieved frequent updates and pictures, and all of our animals LOVED her (even our very finicky bird!). We did 2 meet-and-greets prior to our trip and Morgan was always on time, polite, and professional. She asked lots of relevant questions and really cared for our pets as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone prompt, professional, and great with animals, Morgan is your person!!!

Anna is amazing. She takes such good care of our 3 cats and 2 dogs when we’re away, and I swear our house is nicer when we get back. Also, I’m pretty sure our dogs were trying to shut the door on us so that they could get Anna back! She’s thoughtful, communicative, wonderful with animals, and just a lovely person.

I would definitely recommend Candace and her boyfriend for your pet-sitting needs! I have two hounds, both special and unique in their own way. One is calm and well-behaved and the other is very outgoing, nosey and not very well behaved. They were able to handle my two dogs with ease and had some great recommendations for me. It was the first time I had used a non-family member as an overnight pet sitter and I was very pleased.

Melaney was absolutely amazing! I can’t say enough great things about her. Vacation was a breeze having her watch our boy while we were out of town. Our house was immaculate when we returned. And we could tell Arlo loved her too! We got text updates throughout the week (which we love)! I would 100% recommend her!

Portia did a wonderful job watching all our animals. From the moment we first met her we felt reassured. Portia was quick to respond to messages while we were away and sent lots of pictures of all the animals. I never worried about their well-being while away, which made our vacation more enjoyable. Portia left the house in great shape and all the animals seem quite content. Portia even stayed beyond the original end time when our flight got delayed. We are completely satisfied and would 100% use Portia again.

Shayna and her boyfriend were very nice and my dogs seemed to like them. I booked Shayna for a New Year's Eve stayover. I do wish she would have let me know beforehand that she was bringing a guest but instead, she just showed up with him and although he seemed very nice it was a bit unsettling. We usually like to vet the people who are staying in our house. She also did not communicate that she would be coming and going as often as she did. But the house was left in pristine condition.

Nisha was great! Our animals really took to her, she was very detailed and asked lots of questions to ensure she knew what our expectations were and how to care for our pets. She went above and beyond, and did more than we expected (picking up in the yard after the dogs isn’t necessary on our lot!). Will definitely book her again and highly recommend her.

I would recommend Emma in a heartbeat. Without me asking she made sure my high energy dog was mentally stimulated all weekend, she made him kongs and even used her own items to create mentally stimulating activities. Don’t hesitate to book Emma , you won’t be disappointed

From the initial meet and greet, we knew we were leaving our dogs in great hands. Olivia was kind and the dogs were instantly comfortable with her, which helped us know we were making a good choice before even leaving. While we were gone we received regular updates with pictures as Olivia followed all guidance provided, ensuring that our dogs did not have a break and routine. I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a responsible person to take care of their pets!!
