Morgan was so kind and communicative and best of all, she was stoked to sit for my dog while I was out for an evening. She was able to pick up the request on very short notice and my puppy absolutely adored her. It was such a relief to know that she was excited and happy to hang out with Griffin because I knew he’d be well cared for while I was absent! Will book with Morgan again in the future :)

Lydia was a very helpful pet sitter! She followed all of the instructions I gave very well and managed to earn the affection of my very shy and cautious cat. She sent pictures of her every day which eased my worries, since I had never let her in the care of strangers before. I would hire her again without hesitation!

Jessie is super great with my baby, Cleo! The more Jessie comes, the more Cleo is getting super comfortable with her and all her anxiety and triggers have been going away in the amount of time with Jessie. Jessie knows how to calm her anxiety down from being a great listener when telling her things about Cleo and how to handle Cleo. Jessie is very calming, warm, and a loving dog lover. She is also trustworthy and you can really count on her to come when you need. She makes time to fit you in her schedule when in need!! She’s super sweet and gentle with Cleo.

Lisa took very good care of our one year old dog, Lavender. She generally communicated very well (with a preference for doing so outside the app) and kept us informed of issues that arose (e.g., a lost key). Our puppy seemed very happy when we got back. We’d be happy to use Lisa again.

Andrew is one of the most loving and attentive dog caretakers I've ever seen. He goes above and beyond, and was willing to put in the extra time in order to make sure I was happy and my dogs were happier. He is very responsive and responsible, I can always trust him with my keys knowing he'll lock up when he leaves.
