1. Marty L.

“My dog was well cared for and my house was in great shape when I got home. She even brought in my mail and garbage. Marty was very flexible with the schedule at the last minute.”


2. Ariana R.


“Ariana did a great job taking care of my boy Bear while I was getting married. She even took him out on a hike which is one of his favorite things to do!”


3. Katie F.


“Katie is the best. Our dogs absolutely love her and i never have to worry about anything when she is with them.”


4. Hayley B.

“We just got back from our weekend away and I think our dog wishes Hayley were still here! She did an amazing job taking care of our pup and went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for all weekend. Hayley provided us with regular pictures and updates and our house looked like no one was here, even though she stayed all weekend. We truly appreciate Hayley staying with our guy and will plan on using her again in the future!”


5. Ona M.

“Ona is wonderful. We were gone for about 2 weeks and she was wonderful for all our critters including (one large dog with some separation anxiety, one large dog who can be bit of a handful on walks). She communicated with me daily. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our home and beloved pets were in such good hands.”


6. Nikki E.

“Very reliable, friendly and communicative. Took the time to get to know our pets and helped us out when we greatly needed it. Will use again and highly recommend”


7. Anika B.

“Anika was awesome - responded quickly to a last-minute request for house sitting and took excellent care of our pooch and abode! Highly recommend.”


8. Bethany F.
“I am so grateful to have Bethany take care of my cats. I have a somewhat complicated routine for my fur babies and Bethany was wonderful in implementing my directions. Not only did she take care of my cats but she took care of my home while staying there for 4 days while I was 1500 miles away enjoying a mini vacation. I highly recommend.”


9. Emilia L.

“Emilia was so great with our dog, Willow! They were able to accommodate our last minute dog-sitting request, offered to arrive early to go over any special instructions, and sent us cute pics of our pupster while we were out (the separation anxiety goes both ways!... ) Thanks so much for taking such good care of Willow, Emilia!!”


10. Pilar O.

“We love Pilar! She is very attentive to our 150 lb Giant Alaskan Malamute. Pilar keeps us updated daily with pictures and messages. She’s very sweet and our Malamute just loves her. We highly recommend her for overnight stays and visits!”


11. Sarah L.

“Sarah took great care of my dog and gave her exercise every day. I liked receiving photos while I was away to see my dog looked happy. I was able to enjoy being away knowing my house and dog were in good hands. I'll definitely re-book with Sarah in the future.”




12. Natalie A.

“First of all, I think it’s so sweet that Natalie’s dad wrote her a review, it definitely made me want to hire her initially. Second of all, Natalie was absolutely AMAZING. We hired her to stay at our house for nine days to take care of our dog and our cat, and she was positively wonderful. We met beforehand I knew upon meeting her that my animals would be in great hands with her. She sent daily updates and frequent pictures. I had never left my animals for that length of time and it was such a relief knowing she was taking such great care of them. I would absolutely hire Natalie again, I wouldn’t even have to think about it. I could not recommend her more highly. I know Obi and Doctor Jones miss her already!”


13. Daniel H.

“Danny did a great job taking care of my dog and house for 5 days. Did everything I asked of him and my dog didn’t seem to be sad while I was gone even though we are very attached. This tells me Danny kept him busy and happy. Got lots of pictures and videos. Will definitely be rebooking with Danny!”


14. Deja S.

“Deja was truly so wonderful with our dog and cat for our extended trip out of town. This was their first experience with a sitter and we could tell how happy both of them were under Deja’s care. It made our trip so much easier knowing they were being well taken care of. Our dog can get pretty reactive with certain triggers and Deja did an amazing job handling that and making sure they were properly accustomed to each other beforehand. She was super attentive to detail and provided consistent updates and photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our fur babies!!!”


15. Jaime A.

“She does a great job and our dogs love her! Would absolutely recommend!”


16. Rich M.

“Rich was really flexible and nice enough to stay with our dogs for a full day. Haylee our German Shepherd and Aussie mix really like Rich. We will definitely use him again. He showed a lot of caring due to asking things. He was also willing to watch Sparky too (may have been new to disc problems) and handled it well. We will definitely request Rich again!”


17. Jacquelin W.
“I have seen Jackie's interaction with our fur babies, she really has a passion for caring for animals. She has such patience and has a wonderful understanding of their needs. She really cares about the animals and their well-being. I would not hesitate to recommend Jackie.”


18. Morgan A.

“Morgan took exception care of my senior Pug, Hazel. She sent photos, videos, and updates daily while I was out of town, and I could see how much Hazel enjoyed her time with Morgan!”


19. Robyn C.

“It was so nice to have Robyn stay with Remmy. I didn’t have to worry about her care, and could focus on enjoying my trip! I will definitely book her again!”


20. Jamie M.

“Jamie took great care of our dogs. He asked plenty of questions at the front end to ensure he gave the dogs the best care and provided plenty of updates during his stay”
