“Addison is a great pet sitter. She is reliable and loves all animals. I would trust her with my pet whole heartedly. I have a doodle and she has always been wonderful with him.”


7. April B.

“April is the best with our dog! She has watched our dog Mila for a week and sometimes 2 weeks at a time while we're on big vacations. She's administered my dog's medicine for her day and night and took her out on a walk 4 times a day. April has been so loving to our dog and takes care of her so well! She has her own dog Sam, who Mila gets along with great. We will always trust April with our dog for our vacations and any time we're away. April also has sweet kids who are great with dogs and play with our dog all the time while she's staying there. She evens gives us updates and sends pictures while we're gone, giving me the peace knowing my dog is safe and well cared for.”


8. Kelvin F.
“Kelvin has cared for our dog for many years. He is trustworthy and responsible in his communication and actions. Our sweet girl is a rescue and can be very timid with people, but not with Kelvin. She always does her happy dance when she sees him. Additionally, we have had Kelvin care for our daughter’s service dog when we took a trip out of the country. Kelvin is always professional.”


9. Brooklyn L.

“Brooklyn took great care of our cats. She ensured that they would have everything necessary while we were away. Great to work with and will book again!”

11. Karly B.

“Karly was very prompt to answering messages before and during the visits. We appreciate her taking care of our 3 cats during the holidays. She was flexible and easy to work with!”


12. Isabelle B.
“When I asked my sister to watch Oso for a few days, I didn’t have to worry at all because I knew she’d handle it like a pro, even though he’s just a puppy and still figuring things out. She made sure he was fed on time and kept his puppy pads clean, which is no small task with how often he needs them. Puppies can be a handful, but she didn’t just take care of the basics she played with him and gave him so much attention. It was awesome to come back to a happy, energetic pup who clearly felt cared for and loved. She really went out of her way, and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after him.”


13. Hailey B.

“Thank you so much for taking care of sally we appreciated it so much !”


14. Maia B.
“I can't say enough good things about Maia! I was a little nervous leaving my pets behind while I traveled, but Maia made everything so much easier. From the moment I reached out, she was super responsive and eager to help. While I was away, she took excellent care of my animals (older cat and dog), keeping them happy and safe. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. It’s clear that Maia has a true love for animals and takes their responsibility seriously. Whether it was for my dogs special feeding, backyard playing, or just providing companionship, my pets were in great hands. If you’re looking for someone responsible and trustworthy to care for your pets while you're away, I highly recommend Maia! I’ll definitely be reaching out again for my future trips!”


15. Lindsay S.

“Lindsay was able to help out last minute! Thank you so much!”


16. Elizabeth N.
About: I have been obsessed with dogs since I was little and I love every kind. My husband and I don’t have a dog yet but I love having them around! I am working online so I have plenty of time to be able to take care of your dog. I will go on walks, even runs if you dogs wants to. I have a shared grass area that is unfenced. There is room to play fetch outside and have fun. I also have a really close park!


17. Sheila R.
About: Have had dogs since 1969 and had from malamutes to chihuahua terrier. I now adopt needy dogs as is my Schnauzer Benny who I adopted 6 months ago after my Eva ( chihuahua terrier mix died of paralysis). I have always loved dogs in our home and I rescue now the needy and handicapped dogs.. Benny a schnauzer is about 10 and is blind with glaucoma and was so mistreated and has been a challenge as well as one of the sweetest dogs I ve ever had. I raised my family of 3 boys in Boulder, Colorado and love mountain hiking and nature. I live in a beautiful neighborhood where I have access to trails 2 blocks from my home. Benny Isnd sll dogs I have benefit from a fully fenced yard and long walks through the BLM land that surrounds my homes. I am a healthy and active retired senior who loves hiking and outdoors. I have a trail two blocks from my home and can walk long distances and exercise your pet. Here in Blaine I spend my summer months since walking and dogs in the desert of Utah is too hot for furry pooches. Beautiful trails from my 1st floor condo… parks and ocean… walking dogs is spectacular in this Semiahmoo neighborhood. Very safe and gated community.


18. Mackenzie C.
“Max absolutely loves all animals, and has helped care for our pets multiple times. I always loved getting pictures and videos and little updates while we are away. He cares for our old dog Ruby who required medications, and our puppy Henry who is a big ball of energy.”


19. Sydney A.

“Sydney was wonderful! She stepped in very last minute and was able to arrange a meet and greet with only a couple of hours of notice. She sent pictures and wonderful updates each time she dropped in for my dogs. I will definitely use her again!”


20. Angel Y.

“Angel did an awesome job taking care of my dog. She followed my somewhat odd instructions perfectly. She was even sweet enough to bring in the mail and some packages that had been delivered. I will definitely use her again.”
