1. Melissa S.

“Melissa is simply amazing. We have re-booked her over 10 times for home visits and home sitting our pet, Scott. We all were going on an international trip of ~10 days and we were worried since this was the first time we using someone’s services to stay at home and take care of Scott. Punctuality is Melissa’s virtue and Scott was absolutely comfortable with her. All those 10 days, we were very peaceful and Melissa ensured, with pictures and videos of Scott, that we were always in touch! A very big shout out to Melissa for a fantastic service!”

“Kimberly was great! We've never used a pet-sitter before so were a little nervous, but Kimberly came over to meet us and our dog before we left and put our minds at ease. Our pup took to her right away when she visited and we appreciated the thoughtful questions she asked. She was a great communicator before and during her stay with our pup and sent so many great photos. Just got home from our trip and the house is spotless. Definitely recommend!”

13. Lissette L.

“We booked Lissette for a second time, and couldn’t be happier. She house sat for a week and a half, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that everything was taken care of at home. Our cat and our dog have formed a very cute bond with her, as we’ve seen by all the photos she sends us of them cuddling! Our home was clean and well taken care of when we returned. Can’t wait to book with Lissette again!”


14. Tricia L.

15. Mallory S.
“Mallory has watched our 2 dogs overnight twice. She stayed in our home for 2 days and for 7 days and took excellent care of Rory and Lilly. They were happy and healthy when we got home both times.

17. Kristie C.
“Kristie has always been a loving pet owner who takes care of them like they were her own children. As long as I have known her she always puts the wellbeing of her pets first in any situation, she had two cats with diabetes that she took care of and gave insulin shots every day.I remember she actually had gotten a second job just to help pay for all the medical bills for them that's how dedicated she is to her pets. Dogs and cats always seem to love her personality as they always come up to her. I have know Kristie for over 20 years and she is responsible and prompt on time for whatever engagement she needs to make. My pets love , and I trust her without any worries to take care of them when I am away. She is the perfect person to take care and pet sit for people, dogs and cats can sense her good personality and trust her.”

19. Lauren A.

“Lauren took loving care of my dog and house. The pictures, videos and messages she sent made it a little easier to be away. I would happily use her again.”


20. Laboni G.
“Laboni is amazing! My dog doesn't like a lot of people but he instantly connected with her! She's very caring, sweet and reliable. She's been my go-to for not only petsitting but also housesitting. It's hard finding someone you trust to take care of your furbabies so I really feel comfortable when she's with my little guy Charlie. I almost didn't want to write a review in fear of someone stealing my pet-sitter haha but I guess I'll share! She's great 😊”
