1. Kymberly C.

“Kymberly was FANTASTIC with Murphy and I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She sent us several videos of their walks and little updates on how he was doing.”


2. Cielo V.


“Cielo was amazing. She was very attentive to our four pets' needs and followed each instruction. We have four very different pets, and she loved them each with their own quirks. We could tell when we arrived home they were very relaxed and well cared for. Our home was also left very clean, maybe even cleaner than we left! We will be using Cielo again in the future! Highly recommend.”


3. Cassidy J.

“Cassidy was responsive and helpful and easy to communicate with. She watched our dogs and home for 5 days and did a great job with two big and very active dogs, one who is a 2 year old and needs some energy and management. The house was clean and in order upon return. Would hire again!”


4. Ripley J.

“Ripley was great! She did a great job with the dogs, did everything we asked, and respected our place. We will definitely ask her to come back!”


5. Bradley L.

“Truly above and beyond. Thorough updates, very communicative, treated my dog and home with so much care. Brad is the best dog sitter I've ever experienced.”


6. Christine B.

“Christine is a fantastic sitter. She is very communicative and thoughtful and we felt safe leaving our dog for 5 nights with her at our home. She kept the place super clean and our dog was obviously well cared for. Highly recommend Christine!”


7. Shawna D.

“Shawna was amazing! Her communication was fantastic, she was extremely flexible with our changing schedule, and most importantly she took GREAT care of our pup. I wish we had her in our home town, and would book her again in an instant for our next trip to the area.”


8. Angela M.
About: I grew up on a farm and have experience with Horses, Goats, chickens, ducks, rabbits and of course cats and dogs. I also have recently been fostering a red footed tortoise and have been learning all about reptiles in the process. I am detailed oriented and know how important it is to stick to your pet's specific diet and schedule. My schedule is extremely flexible with most of my work being done from home. I won't be leaving your pet alone for hours. Your buddy is my buddy. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog (Jackalope) at home who's always happy to have a playmate or another dog to keep him company while surveying the neighborhood. I can make special accommodations for fence jumpers and escape artist as long as I know your pets' habits and what to expect. If you're looking for pet care in your home rest assured unless invited my dog will hang at home with his dad.


9. Michael C.

“Michael (Captain) was so helpful, communicative, and kind with Jonas, His dog Cheyenne came with and easily adjusted to sharing space with Jonas and my guy enjoyed having a playmate with she and Captain. I felt completely at ease being away. He was also flexible with helping me accommodate some winter weather flying in and out of Denver. He treated my home as his own and took excellent care. I highly recommend reaching out to him to help with a house sit or any type of pet care needed. He’s right that dogs love him!!”


10. Kari L.

“Kari did a wonderful job sitting for my two older dogs for 5 days. They immediately loved her and it was obvious she was taking good care of them throughout her stay with them. Kari was not only awesome with our dogs, she was a great houseguest. I came back to two very happy pups and a neat house.”


11. Jared L.

“Jared did a fantastic job watching my dog Bowie for a week over Thanksgiving. He was super easy to communicate with and sent some amazing photos of their time together. I have a german shepherd chow chow mix who can take some time getting used to new people and from the first time Jared approached Bowie I felt comforted. Jared clearly knows how to be around dogs and Bowie liked him immediately, which is rare for my pup. I highly recommend him!”




12. Casey W.

“Casey is wonderful! I have two large energetic dogs and they love her! She stayed at my home for a week and watched the dogs. I came home to happy dogs and a clean home! Absolutely the BEST!”


13. Julia F.

“Julia takes great care of our Shiba, Jack and our home! She is great at communication before and during the sit. We receive daily pics and updates. Highly recommend.”


14. Robert & Terra H.

“Rob and Terra are great! We had them house sit/dog sit for us for a week while we were on vacation. They provided lots of updates (including daily photos) and they took great care of everything. Will use again - highly recommended.”


15. Kathleen H.


“This is the second time I have had Kathleen watch my house and Arya. She is prompt and Arya loves her. She sends pictures every day which is so reassuring that all is well. I will definitely be hiring Kathleen again!”


16. Joe A.
“Joe is a phenomenal pet caregiver, and I could not recommend him enough if I tried. He was my go-to dog walker/pet sitter last year and my dog Crouton (who is usually very reserved) warmed up to him right away! She was showered with love and I always knew I could trust Joe to watch her and keep her safe which is all I can ask for my sweet baby Crouton.”


17. Sarah G.

“Sarah did great with our cat Taffy. She definitely has cat experience and can handle big cat personalities. She left the house in great shape too.”


18. Robert E.
About: Although I'm new to "professional" house and pet-sitting, I have been doing so for neighbors and friends sand have cared for pets of my own since I was 10. After 30+ years as either an employee or a business owner, I'm currently working on building a photo art business and picking up p/t work when I can. Pretty flexible. I will reliably and carefully care for your home and pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, caged birds, chickens, pigs, and goats. Love horses, but no care experience. Have references. I have a references.


19. Emily M.
“Emily is exceptionally responsible, caring, and detail oriented, and I trust her completely with my pets. She is playful and intuitive to the needs of animals, and treats my babes as if they were her own. Emily is punctual, communicative, and a delight to interact with. I highly recommend having Emily care for your pets!”


20. Ellis B.
About: I've grown up watching my friends & family's dogs as I was someone they trusted to watch & love their dog while they were away. I am looking for that experience and to bring dogs back into my life by house sitting or dogs staying with me if they don’t another dog in the house. I have a friendly 9 year old 50 lb fluffy golden doodle. I’m very close to parks and the river to take long walks around. I normally walk in the neighborhood with my dog, or take him for a hike & let him cool off in the river & go for a swim. I work from home so I can keep them company all day if staying with me or I am free to come over to your place to check in on them and take them for a walk. I am very comfortable being active with the dogs I look after or adapting to their personal preference in what they like to do or don't do. I make sure they're safe & happy at all times. I make sure to send lots of photos of your pup while you're away if that is your preference. Let me know if you have any other questions! I currently work from home & have time throughout the day to take your dog out through the week, or they can sit & hang with me at home! Free Monday-Friday & weekends are subject to availability. Just message me to see if I'm available on the weekend. I have a fenced back yard with a dog door where they can walk in and out whenever. I have a 9year old goldendoodle that can also keep them company. I typically take my dog on a walk in the morning, afternoon, & evening. Sometimes with a run or hike in the mix but will do what your dog likes best!
