1. Devinder K.
“Devin was so incredibly kind and patient when my puppy wasn't feeling well and made a mess everywhere. He has also been so flexible and truly helped me out! Deeply grateful for his help and will definitely be a repeat customer!”
2. Cynthia B.
“Cynthia was amazing with my dog and was great with keeping us updated on how he was doing. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our boy!!!!”
3. Eli G.
“Elizabath has always had such a great talent for taking care of pets. I think the most obvious proof is with her own furbabies as she proudly cares for 2 dogs and many bunnies. There are even times where she puts her pet's needs before her own. She also just loves to be around pets, even when passing a dog being walked down the street she can't resist to come over and pet them and shower them with affection. She has endless amounts of patience, she has immersed herself in lots of research and studies for animal care and most of all she has such a grand love for any animal. I'd go as far as to say that she's overqualified for this opportunity because she'll be doing something she absolutely loves and is passionate about.”
4. Nikki B.
“Nikki was great. My dogs were well cared for and she made sure to stay in communication with me throughout our trip as well. Couldn't ask for a better pet sitter.”
5. Ashley W.
“Ashley has three pets of her own with one senior cat who she cares for and works hard to find healthy options for. Looking to make sure he gets the attention her cuddle buddy needs. She also has three kittens whom she adores. When I got my own cat, Ashley was among my network of people I called on to help. When I was out of town, she came to care for my Lorelai and she quickly won Lorelai’s affection and captured some of my favorite photos of her. She communicated with me during my entire time out of town.”
6. Bridgette M.
“I forgot to book my walks for the week and I work 12 hour shifts, so it is imperative that my tiny guy ( who refuses to go inside on puppy pads) be taken out. Bridgette saved the day, even with such short notice. My dog also loves her. I definitely recommend her to anyone.”
7. Kristen C.
“Kristen did a great job walking Bo this weekend. She communicated every time and even let me add on an extra day. We would definitely use her again!”
8. Catherine C.
“Cat was an amazing sitter for our pittie and kitten while we were out of town for the weekend! When our initial plan of house sitting didn’t work out, she offered to do as many drop ins as we needed and even accommodated an extra visit the day of our departure. Our meet and greet went so well with her and Kurama and Bella took to her immediately. She followed my laundry list of instructions to a t, sent us multiple updates throughout the day and was always so communicative with us. Thank you Cat for all of your help. We had no doubt that our kiddos were in great hands. If you need a reliable sitter we would absolutely recommend Cat!”
9. Kayley D.
“Absolutely wonderful! Flexible, came early when I asked, was so perfect with the dogs, easy to work with, accommodating, professional, got the job done and gave 110%! I have two tired pups!”
10. Shannon T.
“Shannon was so great! She was to coordinate with and went the extra mile to make sure our 2 dogs were walked and cared for. Thank you Shannon”
11. Vijay B.
“It is always hard to leave our dog when we travel. Long trips out of the country are even harder, you really have to know your dog is in good hands! Vijay has been that person for us for a few extended trips, as well as the occasional afternoon dogwalk. I am always confident that our dog is in good hands. Vijay sends updates and photos and our neighbors have even noted how relaxed our dog is with her.”
12. Jen J.
About: Exceptional skills in puppy training and senior pet care, ensuring a holistic approach to pet well-being. I do my best to make each furry friend feel cherished and nurtured. I am currently doing a career search and have a ton of time on my hands. I would be happy to help out with your pet care needs on your timeline. Dedicated, loving care in a safe and comfortable environment, ensuring pets receive personalized attention and maintain their routines for a happy and stress free experience.
13. Bram C.
“Bram gave my Dog and I a 5 Star experience from start to finish. I wanted someone who has experience with the bigger, more challenging breeds (I have a GSD) and Bram is just that person. You can tell he’s just as passionate about taking care of your pet as you are. From his responsive text messages, easy going personality, consistent photo updates and much more I will definitely be using him in the future. Bram and other people like him are the reason why platforms like this exist and succeed. Thanks again for everything.”
14. Jill G.
“Jill is great with my pup! I always come home to a tired and happy dog. Jill also communicates excellent. Thank you!”
15. Elexiss A.
“When Elexiss, met my dog she quickly bonded. She is a knowledgeable person to care for a pet. I highly recommend her for pet sitting.”
16. Nick I.
“Nick did a great job with our big baby! Will definitely use again!”
17. Alyssa M.
“Alyssa is great with animals, she loves them all! She went to my house this morning, got my girl from her crate and took her for a great walk in the park. Anyone’s fur baby would love having Alyssa care for him or her in any capacity. Alyssa has also taken care of our dog while we were out of town for a long weekend. I would highly recommend her for any pet care needs.”
18. Katie W.
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Katie and her commitment to pets. She is not only loving, caring and compassionate but she is also knowledgeable and committed to pet health and safety. I know that Katie will love pets like they are her own and care for them as a professional! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter and dog walker.”
19. Alexandria J.
“My family could not have asked for a better pet sitter and dog walker than Alexandria. She took care of our dog, Halley, like she was her own. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our pup would be cared for every day while we were at work, with Alexandria coming to walk her and give her attention each afternoon. This became especially appreciated as Halley became an older girl and needed extra TLC. We were also able to go on vacation and not worry because our Halley was in great hands with Alexandria. Alexandria is professional at all times as well as responsible and courteous. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your pet the way that you would if you were there.”
20. Christina S.
“Gave lots of feedback and answered all of my questions while gone. Oliver warmed up to her over the weekend and everything was in place when I came home. Great job will definitely book again.”
