My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.

Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.

Highly, highly recommend! Denise is a caring animal lover with heaps of experience from all her work at the animal humane. My rescue felt comfortable with her very quickly and was well cared for during the week+ that I was away. On top of that, my house was in great condition when I got back. Thanks, Denise, for the daily photos, clear communication, and for being so great at what you do!

We are so happy to have connected with Marsi and extremely thankful for the excellent care our 5 cats received while we were away! They can be a handful, but she loved them like her own, paid attention to their every need, respected their every cat demand, and took wonderful care of the home as well. A delightful, respectful, and very professional pet sitter! Thank you for everything <3

Vincent did a wonderful job with my two cats. They are very skittish with strangers, but it was clear when I got home that they were happy and comfortable under Vincent's care. They are usually quite moody when we get back from a long trip away, but this time they were in good spirits which made the transition back home easier for all of us. I definitely recommend him and will use his services again! Thank you, Vincent! :)

His communication is top tier and it’s clear he wants to do whatever is best for our cherished family members. He was very accommodating to make our schedule work and spend the most time with our dogs. Looking forward to using his services again!

Melissa went above & beyond with my Rori! She is so caring, loving, understanding, & flexible with scheduling.. and was so accommodating to my crazy schedule. Her communication is incredible & she kept me well informed of how Rori was doing. She even got my pup to play & I love it when she plays - I know she was happy & very comfortable with her. They went on lots of walks & she was very attentive to Rori's wants & needs. Thank you so much Melissa! We can't wait to book with her again!

When Colton first arrived at my house for a meet and greet my cats came out to meet him instead of hiding. My dog who barks at nearly everyone and is shy didn't bark and wanted to be around him. Colton is a gentle soul, very attentive and asks great questions. He took care of my three Maine Coons, my chickens and koi while I was gone a week. If he was unsure he didn't hesitate to contact me. He sent photo updates and checked in with me regularly. He followed my instructions perfectly. When I got home the house was clean and tidy. Colton is amazing. I'm so happy I found him.

Larkin was great at communicating and taking care of my kitten! She’s very friendly and took great care of our house as well. My kitten, who is often skittish around new people, was super comfortable with her and seemed content when I got home. So glad to have found such a responsible and kind person to hangout with my pet!

Paloma went out of her way to care for our three adult/senior dogs and 15-week-old rescue puppy on relatively short notice, allowing us to spend much-needed quality time with family out of state. We had peace of mind the entire week we were away and returned to happy pets!

Riley was great - she is communicative, sweet, and took good care of my pup and house! My dog was on a couple of meds so was feeling off during her stay and she made sure to give him his meds and was understanding of his weird little behaviors. I had total peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we were gone. Thanks you!! 😊

Regina did a fantastic job taking care of my babies. I received daily updates with pictures of the cats. She was on top of everthing that needed to be done. One of my cats need medication 3 times a day. Regina didn't miss a beat. She adminstered the pill with no problem. She did have a difficulty on one occasion. I told here if she misses one medication the world would not end. It meant a lot to me that she let me know. Overall Regina did an amazing job. I would absolutely provide a good review should someone show interest in having Regina pet sit.
