1. Robin L D.


“Robin was awesome! She gave detailed updates with pictures and made us feel great about our cat being happy and well while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!”


2. Disha T.

“Disha has been providing regular lunchtime drop-ins for my 12-year old Black Lab mix Scarlett for almost 6 months. I could not ask for a kinder, more responsible, and caring sitter for my furry companion. Disha is good communicator, provides detailed visit reports, and makes sure you know if anything seems off with your dog during drop-ins. Knowing Disha was there for Scarlett during lunch gave me confidence that my dog was well cared for and gave me peace of mind while I was at work. You won’t put a foot wrong if you hire Disha!”


3. Lauren L.

“Great experience while we were out for the day. Very prompt visits and the dogs were very well taken care of. Definitely will be getting her services again when the needs arise.”


4. Madison W.

“Madison is an excellent caregiver for our dog Griff! She is reliable, friendly and kind. I can’t say enough great things about her!❤️”


5. Rebecca L.

“Thank u so Much !!!”


6. Arnaldo Z.

“Arnie is incredible! He came over a few days before my first booking to meet my 2 dogs. My senior dog warmed right up to him, and my 3 year old rescue even allowed some scratches and to be held. I was able to tell they both felt safe and secure with Arnie around. My senior needs a little extra help up and down the stairs, and I’m still working on leash confidence with the 3 year old. These things didn’t faze Arnie or stand out as a problem. He was ready to tackle them head on. This made me feel safe and secure knowing my babies would be in goods hands with him. I’m so thrilled that Arnie will be a buddy for my pups, and give me some peace of mind when I have a long work day!”


7. Hailey S.

“I hate that Micki is being so stubborn, but appreciate Hailey taking the time with her on her drop in visits. Jack smiles from ear to ear in all her pictures she sends.”


8. Karen B.

“Karen left a great first impression with my kitty and I! She asked and answered all our questions, spent some nice cuddle time with Mister, and gave me confidence about her future visits. Many thanks Karen!”


9. Henna A.
“Henna took the time to hand feed my leopard gecko after she refused worms! She nursed her back to health and made sure we were both good before she left!”


10. Ande C.

“Ande made the process very stress free! Letting someone into our home made us uneasy — but she made us very comfortable doing so! She was communicative about everything, and our dogs warmed up to her quickly. She was on time, thorough, and prioritized our dogs as if they were her own! Absolutely loved hiring her (slightly last minute, as well) and highly recommend!”


11. Teri B.

“Thanks Teri! You did a terrific job! I would highly recommend Teri to watch your pets. From the first time she met my boys they took a liking to her and I could tell they were going to be friends. I don’t like to leave my pets with just anyone, they mean to much to me, but I will leave them with Teri anytime! Thanks again Teri!!”




12. Rosie H.

“Rosie is a thoughtful, caring and flexible sitter! She was super quick to respond to our requests and our puppy had a great time with her. She even taught him how to fetch! We will definitely be calling her again!”

“Klara”


14. Kristen H.

15. Olivia S.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from kittens/puppies to senior animals. I’m passionate about working with and helping animals. Their needs and care are important to me. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets needs! My availability is relatively open and I’m looking forward to taking care of your friend! I’m comforting crating dogs, comforting anxious animals and taking care of their needs as far as potty breaks, snacks, and so forth. I’m comfortable working with the system you have in place for your pet.


16. Kayda S.
“Kayda has been a long time family friend of ours who we can always rely on to care for our dogs. She’s always been eager to help us out when we need it, usually for occasions when we are out of town for a day and she comes over to feed/walk our dogs while we aren’t home. The dogs are always excited to see her when she comes over and you can tell she feels the same.”


17. Aidan H.
“Aidan does a fantastic job watching our dog Gilly. He has stayed at our house numerous different times for varying lengths of stay. Aidan loves animals and is active. He’ll send daily updates for us including pictures of Gilly on walks and hanging around the house. Aidan has watched Gilly for as short as 1 night and as long as 8 nights while we were out of the country. Gilly loves Aidan and runs to him when she sees him. Highly recommend.”


18. Aubrey H.

“Aubrey did an amazing job communicating and caring for my puppy, despite his shyness. Thank you for accommodating us last minute! Ozzy appreciated it!”


19. Heidi W.
“Heidi has cared for multiple animals for me over the past 10 years. Most recently she has watched my blind elderly cocker spaniel Boomer. He absolutely adores her. Heidi is always punctual, trustworthy, and efficient. There is no one else I would trust my pets with more than her. She is extremely reliable,”
