“Omar was a wonderful sitter for my dog. I am very glad I found him. He sent me timely updates with photos of what he was doing to keep my dog happy and he followed all the directions I left for him. I was very pleased with the experience and would gladly use him again to watch my pup.”
“Malek did a great job letting Gimli adjust to a new human at his own pace. He asked for guidance when needed, to help Gimli build trust in him. Gimli greeted him happily when he returned to pick up his things, so I know Gimli feels comfortable. As the owner of a sensitive, intelligent and active dog this was just what I was looking for. Thank you, Malek!”
“Xena was absolutely amazing. She sent us many updates and made us so comfortable during our wedding weekend. She left our place cleaner than when we left. We would love for her to watch our animals again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Jenny provided! She was responsible, attentive, and truly empathetic with our two dogs, making them feel safe and loved while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home and was incredibly respectful of our space. We especially appreciated the thoughtful daily updates and how responsive she was throughout the stay. She even went out of her way to ship something we had forgotten at home—above and beyond in every way. Highly recommend!”
“Jeffrey was amazing with our two pups. We have one who is a bit anxious and fearful around new people, especially men, and Jeffrey quickly won him over! He was available for a meet and greet and gave tons of updates and photos to put our minds at ease. He is fantastic!!”
“She was so nice and took great care of my dog. My dog sometimes is timid among strangers but Heidy made the experience much better and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. 🌸🌸 10/10 recommend.”
“This is the third time Don has stayed with our dogs and I know they’re getting excellent care. Don sends pictures and updates and leaves our house spotless. Couldn’t ask for a better dog- and housesitter!”
“Carolina is an absolute ANGEL! She cares for my pups like they are her own. One of my pups suffers from severe anxiety and she goes out of her way to comfort him with tons of cuddles and love. I am so happy I found her and will continue to use her to care for my pups in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
“Mikayla was amazing! Our dog loved her and even wanted to get up on the bed with her. He does not do that often if at all. She was professional, caring, and overall put our minds at ease. I would highly recommend her.”
“Kate was wonderful with our dogs and cat. Meeting each one’s needs at their own pace with one shy dog, one cuddly one and a kitty who takes her own time to approach. Kate sent reports and pictures often and we were very comfortable knowing she was caring for them. We came home to happy and relaxed pets! We really appreciated her being able to accommodate us on short notice. We highly recommend Kate and will be happy to book her again! Thank you!”
“Katie is amazing. She sent daily photos of my pup and was even nice enough to check around the basement for water issues when it was raining heavily. My dog is a bit cranky and Katie took wonderful care of her. I highly recommend her.”
“Marianna sent fantastic (and detailed) updates and photos and played with our cat and dog. We came home to happy pets and a pristine house. We would use Marianna again anytime!”
“Kayley did an excellent job watching my cats while I was away overseas. She kept them entertained despite basically unlimited energy levels. It was great having peace of mind that they were OK while I had very limited contact”
“Sabria was a lifesaver during our weeklong vacation over Fourth of July week. She stayed at our house with our dog and cat for a full week and took such great care of everything. Our dog is nervous and slow to warm up, and she was so caring and patient with him. Our cat can also be a picky customer and he was accepting head rubs from her almost right away. She kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the week and had great communication. She was very graceful during some technical difficulties with the house that were completely our fault. And she left the house spotless! She is an all around kind, compassionate person and we felt very comfortable knowing she was taking care of things while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Sabria for house and pet sitting and dog walking. She is the best!”
“Christina has stayed at our home on two different occasions to care for our cat, dog, and frog. She is very attentive and communicative which we greatly appreciate. She is our first choice when we need someone to care for our pets while we are away and I never have any worries when they are in her care. Very grateful for her help.”
“We highly recommend Vanessa. she took real good care of our dog, was attentive to our requests, and communicative, and sent many pictures and videos to ease our mind. we felt our dog is safe! we look forward to meeting her next.”
“Tabatha was fantastic! I had to go out of town to deal with sick family, and needed to not worry about my pets. Tabatha made everything so easy and took great care of my dog and cat. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Abigail (Lingshan) did a wonderful job of taking care of Ziva. She sent photos and description of their walks together. And descriptions were personalized and you can tell she enjoyed taking care of our dog. Would definitely recommend her!”
