4. Emilia M.
“Emilia was so attentive, flexible and made me feel very confident that my dogs were I. Good hands while I was away. She left the house neat as a pin. Will definitely book her again!”
5. Saren C.
“Saren was great with our pups, one of which is anxious and takes daily meds. She left our house even better than we left it too. Would absolutely use her again in a heartbeat!”
6. Alexandra L.
“Alexandra was a SAINT! I have a Pom puppy with bad separation anxiety but Alexandra took spectacular care of her and Margot had a great time. She took great care of her, left the apartment as she found it, and even changed the sheets on the bed since I was getting home late. My neighbors texted me to let me know she was doing a great job and thought she was super nice. I’ll 100% be rebooking the next time I have to go out of town— thank you so much for loving my baby like one of your own!”
7. Shannon W.
“Wow. Shannon is wonderful. She is a professional pet sitter who is caring, thoughtful, and empathetic towards your fur babies. I can’t say enough positive things about her and how she cared for my 3 pets. She does work in a pet clinic and it shows in her care of your fur babies. She also took care of my house and treated it with the same respect that she would her own. I highly recommend her.”
8. Reyna M.
“Reyna was wonderful to work with. She let us know her schedule prior to booking to make sure it would work with our dogs needs. She communicated on a regular basis on how our dog was doing. Our dog can be very anxious and difficult and Reyna handled her very well. We got lots of pictures while we were gone, which were great. Definitely will use Reyna again.”
9. Sarah H.
“Sarah has taken the best care of my 4 high-maintenance cats many times. From managing different diets for different cats to making sure one cat gets his daily Prozac, I know she'll make sure they all get what they need.”
10. Erin K.
“Erin has an incredible knack with with animals! When she took home two shy, fearful shelter cats who the shelter employees said would likely remain scared and timid, she was patient and worked with them consistently; now they are active and attractive boys who love their home and their human. Erin also adopted an older pup whose weight issues were impacting his health, and now he's a spry old man who loves going on walks and has energy to spare. She would be an excellent support to anyone looking for a calm and patient hand with their pets.”

“There aren’t enough ‘Thank Yous’ to say how grateful I am to Blue for taking such good care of my girls!! They loved him from the moment they met him!! We got lots of pictures and updates, making me feel so comfortable and confident with Blue. Definitely recommend and will for sure use him again!!”

15. Elijah Gipe B.
“Aliyah knocked it out of the park!!!! I have an anxious girl who can be protective with some real "stranger danger" and was worried about finding a dog sitter who could form a bond with my girl to allow me to go out of town to visit relatives. Aliyah approached her in an unassuming demeanor and after a brief meet & greet, I was able to leave them alone to fetch ball and get to know each other. Aliyah agreed to make a 2nd trip to my house before I left town for a "test drive" to make sure things would go smoothly when I actually had to leave town. They formed a bond at that point and I left town a couple days later and my girl was wagging her tail & following Aliyah around on the first night. She cuddled up in bed with Aliyah and everything went AWESOME. She exceeded all expectations, I felt totally comfortable, and will definitely ask Aliyah to dogsit for me in the future. She sent me tons of pictures and stayed in regular contact with me throughout the stay. THANK YOU for giving me peace of mind and taking such good care of my timid anxious furbaby <3”
16. Willow S.
“Willow was great with our greyhounds. We booked Willow to watch our pets for the day while we were out for an extended period of time. He was flexible with arrival /departure times, attentive to instructions and his calm demeanor was exactly what our two needed. We will be calling on Willow in the future to watch them again when the need arises.”
17. Aden S.
“Aden was very attentive and took great care of our dog. Definitely recommend!”
18. Elizabeth A.
“Ellie is great with dogs! She will truly love your pets as her own. She is responsible, communicative, and professional. I would recommend Ellie for any pet needs.”
19. Dante B.
“Dante did an awesome job and I came back to my house with zero issues. He kept me informed the entire time and I will definitely be requesting more stays from him in the future.”
20. Leslie D.
“Leslie did a great job taking care of our two dogs! She was also great with communication the whole time we were gone. Will definitely be using her in the future!”
