“Danielle was amazing at loving on our pets, keeping to their routines, and sending us updates. We look forward to using her again and again as a sitter for our fur babies!”
“Mary is absolutely wonderful! She’s so kind, and my dogs love being watched by her! She’s very communicative, and I always come home to the house tidy with a sweet treat in the freezer she’s left! Absolutely book with her for your doggy care needs!”
“Jordan went above and beyond as a dogsitter at our house! She was so great with communication, we did not have to worry about anything. We returned to our house even cleaner than how we left it. I would recommend Jordan to anyone, and I definitely hope she is available next time we need a sitter!!”
“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”
“Jack did a great job house sitting our dogs as always! He was able to accommodate us with a last minute request and we appreciate his flexibility. We definitely recommend Jack to take great care of your fur babies.”
“Star did a fabulous job housesitting and caring for my cat and 2 dogs, one of whom is super timid and requires lots of time and patience to earn her trust. The pets were all happy and relaxed when I returned, and my home was clean and tidy. Star is professional, great at communicating, and is flexible and accommodating too. I highly recommend her if you want peace of mind that your pets and home will be in the best hands while you're away.”
“We hit the jackpot with Lindsey! She watched our 4 pets after a last minute booking and did a wonderful job of following our instructions/requests and keeping us informed every day. One of our dogs got sick and she quickly notified us. We came home to some happy animals!”
“Amanda was great with my two dogs and cat! I have two high energy dogs and she made sure that they both had enough activities and walks to keep them calm. Amanda sent pictures everyday of whatever shenanigans they were up to. She also took care of watering my garden and hanging baskets. I'll definitely have her as a sitter again when we're out of town.”
“Zach took wonderful care of our home and dog while we were out of town. Harlow was spoiled with so many snuggles and quality time. We hope to have him stay again in the future. Thank you, Zach!”
“Billy was the perfect Dog Sitter. All four of my dogs loved him immediately. He took such good care of them. He was prompt, courteous, attentive to all of my dogs. He was fantastic, and I will certainly use him again.”
“Caitlin surpassed our expectations! She gave us peace of mind our fur babies were fully taken care of. She made sure to keep me in the loop with updates and the most adorable pictures. She even brought extra treats that became a favorite. I would recommend her to anyone and hope to use her again in the future! Thank you Caitlin for everything! I know Bear and Coco miss you!”
“My dogs love Sam! Sam asked good questions and made sure he understood all the medication and special needs. He played with my youngest and cuddled with my older dogs. Sam arrived on time and kept me updated. My dogs were relaxed and happy when I got home and the house was spotless. My boys are looking forward to more visits with Sam!”
“Raniya was great to work with. She took really good care of my dogs, always showed up on time and spent time with them and kept an open line of communication with her. We have already booked her for another stay and highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for pet sitting. This was our first time doing this and it was a very pleasant experience and kept our dogs from being kenneled 24/7 at a boarding facility.”
“Tanisha was so wonderful. Always a relief when your pets aren’t something you have to worry about while away and that was absolutely how it was with her. I appreciated the amount of updates she provided along the way. Happy pets upon return 🥰Hope to book again in the future”
“Haleigh took very thorough care of our dog and two cats over the holidays. While our dog is just pretty needy, one of the cats is on 2x a day meds and Haleigh found creative ways to administer meds even when he became suspicious of it in his food. She was very respectful of the house and kept it tidy. Even washed our sheets for us so we’d be able to crash after a late flight. Thanks so much Haleigh!”
