1. Regina R.

“Reggie was phenomenal. She made sure all 4 of our animals got the exact attention and care they needed and our home was in immaculate condition when we returned. Would highly recommend.”


2. Skyler M.

“Skyler is so caring and awesome! I contacted Skyler with limited notice for a last minute trip. She came over the same day for a meet and greet. She wasn’t put off by my barky dog. Throughout the short day Skyler kept me updated and sent me pictures of my dog. When my dog unexpectedly got scared of intense thunder, Skyler reached out to see if there was a thing she could do to comfort her. Skyler is super caring and communicative! Will be booking with her in the future! 💗✨”


3. Rachel S.

“Rachel was amazing when she watched our dog while we went out of town for the weekend! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates about how he was doing. Our dog loved her immediately and we knew he would be in good hands with her! We hope to continue having her over to watch our dog when needed!”


4. Jude J.

“Brigit is the BEST. We have had her house sit with our dogs multiple times and we have been so grateful. She’s the sweetest person and i know she’s taking care of my dogs. We never have to worry when we are out of town. I got a ton of packages delivered while she stayed and she was amazing and made sure all of them were inside even though they were VERY heavy. We will continue to use Brigit anytime we need a dog/house sitter.”


13. Talia G.

14. Stasia Y.

“Stasia was the best. I’ve been trying to find someone to look after my girl Luna while I was away for a few months now & no one has been as great as she has with my Luna! She was great with communication, sending pictures & video updates to show me Luna was happy & safe. I felt at ease having her in my home & watching Luna, I really couldn’t have asked for better. If you need someone reliable & who will ease your worries about leaving your pets and home, Stasia is who you’re looking for!”

17. Janelle R.

“Janelle is an outstanding pet sitter! She made us comfortable for our first time using a pet sitter by meeting with us, answering questions, advising us on how we could prepare for emergencies, and sending us daily updates on our cat. Janelle went above and beyond to provide information about our cat’s behavior and activity while we were away, and she took care of our home while we were away too. Our cat was calm, happy, and healthy when we returned. We and our cat highly recommend Janelle! ❤️??”


18. Caitlin C.

“Caitlin was truly a lifesaver! Our flight home was cancelled and we had to change our plans. Caitlin was flexible and agreed to stay an extra day with our pets. She took great care of them and we couldn’t be more grateful!”


19. Clarissa S.

“Clarissa is a great dog sitter. We really appreciate the photos she sends, and overall she is a good communicator. We feel that our pet is safe and happy with Clarissa when we're away.”


20. Kaylin W.

“Kay is very committed to her job. She went the extra mile to care for and play with my cat. When I got home, I had a very happy boy waiting for me. That hasn’t always happened with other sitters. Kay was also concerned with the care of my home and did a very good job of plant watering, linen washing etc so I had very little chores waiting for me when I got home. Kay was very responsive to my short notice for a house sitter. I look forward to using her again.”
