1. Kristi C.

“Kristi was absolutely phenomenal! After my usual sitter cancelled last minute, Kristi was quick to respond and able to help me on very short notice! She was pleasant, well-spoken, friendly, and active with the pups! She listened well and followed all instructions given, and even went above and beyond with some photos and poop pickup! I will definitely be reaching out for future drop ins! ♥️”


2. Emily V.

“Believe it: Emily is a literal gem. She checked in on my cat Anise while I was out of town for almost a week. She communicated regularly and professionally. She’s a joy in person and would be a great addition to your pets extended family!”


3. Justine S.

“Justine took excellent care of my beloved cat children while I went out of town! I worry especially about my oldest cat as she tends to be upset when I’m gone for a few days or more. Justine provided them with great care and kept my mind at ease. She was also flexible when I had to add on a date after my flight changed. Definitely recommend!!”


4. Mitchell M.

“Mitch was awesome with our two cats, and went the extra mile to help us troubleshoot some frozen pipes during the recent cold snap. He was communicative and really gracious with his time. So grateful to have him watch the boys and check in on our house while out of town for the holidays!”


5. Rachel L.
“Rachel is an exceptional doggie caregiver! Both of my Bernese love her including my COVID dog who is terrified of people! She spends time playing in the backyard with them, taking them on neighborhood walks, and then makes sure they have water before she goes! We love Rachel!”

“Lyndsey was the perfect drop in sitter for our two dogs. She was responsive, kind and our dogs were so happy. Highly recommend!”


9. Breon M.


“We had Breon come to our home for drop in visits with our golden retriever while we were on vacation. She came three times a day and spent a lot of time with him! She sent us many photos and videos which we loved. We came back to a very happy and calm boy. Breon also did a few things around the house to be helpful, we didn’t even have to ask. She was fantastic and we highly recommend her! We will definitely be using her in the future.”


10. Kiarra S.

“Kiarra is so great with our puppy! She’s so patient and kind with our 10 week old pup, which can be difficult at times with those sharp little teeth.”


11. Ashley-Marie W.

“She came right on time (early even) and my dog absolutely loved her! From the first meeting, I knew I could trust her in my house and with my animal! My animal can’t wait for more visits with his new friend :)”


12. Katie D.


“Always does a great job!”


13. Megan L.
“I have known Megan for over 40 years. She is an excellant person and cares very much for her family and friends. She grew up with a couple of Goldens. The first one was not very pleasant but as a young person she handled it very well. The second one was an angel she obviously handled that well. Currently she has the pleasure of hanging out with three German Shepards(one of them is mine), with very differnt personalities, being able to cope with Trouble, Cranky and Sweet can be a challenge, especially when navigating them with kids, who don't really understand the difference. She is a very responsible mother of two, who is doing her best to raise a family in today's world. I can't say enough good things about her.”


14. Jenna L.
“If you’re looking for a trustworthy and lovable sitter to your furry friend, Jenna is your girl. Jenna is a dog lover through and through and will treat your pet(s) like her own. Your pet will be very well taken care of and loved by Jenna :)”


15. Amber E.

“We've hired Amber to take care of our two felines several times and she's been great. Excellent communication, on-time, and shows wonderful care for our animal family. We highly recommend her.”


16. Mariah S.

“We used Mariah again for vacation this year, as she did such an amazing job last time! We will definitely keep using her services for any future needs! Communication was excellent and our pup loves her!”




17. Jessica S.
“Jessica has walked my dog for a few weeks now. Every time I come home my dog seems to be happy! I have been able to trust Jessica to take care of my dog while at work and will continue to count on her for many walks in the future!”


18. Andrea F.

“Absolutely great! Helped us out on short notice, went with the flow for our senior dogs extra needs, and took great care of our boys! Thank you, we will be returning clients.”


19. Leslie S.

“Leslie took very good care of my two kitties for a week, dropping in twice daily to feed and interact a bit with them while I was gone. She sent pics daily too, as well as brining in the mail and even going the extra mile to do a bit of watering on the back patio per my request. I would highly recommend Leslie!”


20. Hailey K.
“Hailey has dog sat for me numerous times over the years. I highly recommend her for all of your dog walking and sitting needs. She takes great care of my 3 pups every time I’m out of town.”
