Charles was above and beyond what we expected. We have an English Bulldog, and he whined when he left. It was obvious he really does love animals and treats them with respect. He sent us updates throughout our absence, and kept in close contact. 5-star rating from us and highly recommended.

Jessica was absolutely wonderful! She came to visit my dog while I was away, and I couldn't have asked for a more reliable and caring sitter. She was punctual, communicative, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. My dog liked her right away, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I appreciated the updates and photos she sent—it really helped me relax and enjoy my time away. I would definitely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Jessica!

We and our kitties are SOOO blessed each time we get to have Laura take care of them. They love her so much. They are very, very elderly and fragile, but she knows exactly how to handle them with love, gentness and skill. When we see them after she has cared for them they are always extra peppy and in beautiful condition. I can tell they love her so much that they want her to stay and they accuse me of hiding her from them. I can’t say enough that we are so thankful. This last time we booked her, I forgot something extremely important but she anticipated it simply because she thinks about what they need and cares so much about how they feel. What a wonderful person and we are just so thankful for her!

About: I have worked at a vet clinic for the past 7 summers. I have experience with all types of pets especially dogs and cats in a medical and home setting. I have three dogs of my own. I have a very flexible schedule during the summer as I am a college student who works remotely. I don’t have a set schedule it varies day to day. I love to spend quality time with your fur babies. If they enjoy cuddles I am your girl. I will take them on walks, play fetch, or simply be someone to keep them company.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in preschool. My family has always had lots of pets throughout the house all through my childhood! I have lots of experience in giving baths, medicine, lots of cuddles and care! I will be sending plenty of pictures so you can see what your pet is up to at all times! I am currently working for myself while also working from home. This gives me all the time in the world to be just as attentive as you would be to your fur baby! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and open space for walks/jogs. My house is large enough to keep small dogs and larger dogs separated to ensure there are no accidents.

Mia was amazing! My 2 cats are super shy and never come out when we have stranger in the house but she sent pictures each visit of them out and about! She was super sweet and very quick to respond to any messages. She stayed for a bit each visit even though I told her she didn’t have to worry about staying for long since they typically hide 🤣 Will definitely rebook with her!!

Celeste is wonderful! Communicative, prompt & exactly what I was looking for. She helped with the Rover ins and outs as it's been years since I've had a dog and needed to use it. She was super accommodating to my last minute booking and sends pictures at every visit. Couldn't be happier!

Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of our 3 cats while we were on vacation! I was hesitant to book a pet sitter since I never had before, but she put me at ease right away and from the beginning during the meet and greet, my cats took to her right away, even our most timid one. Lauren has a great spirit. She kept me updated the entire time and stayed in contact. She took the BEST photos of them that made me smile everyday knowing my cats were being loved while I was gone. I highly recommend her!

Sophia came over a few days early for a meet and greet. She actually saw 2 of the cats! That's unusual. They're shy. Apparently they did come out to eat while she was here. There were pictures. This only a overnight. I will use Sophia again!

We are very thankful for Isa! Not only did she make herself available without much notice, but her professionalism, ,skill and kindness as she interacts with animals and their parents is what we all hope to find in a pet sitter. When we do find such a gem, we want to stay connected to such a wonderful person who takes such good care of our baby. We found a wonderful sitter last year who always takes care of our girl, but sometimes our last-minute request find her not available. We never thought we could ever find someone to trust since our usual sitter goes so above and beyond. I’m so thankful to be proven wrong by finding Isa! Thank you, Isa for taking care of our little old girl. She was very happy and secure and your photography of her will always be treasured! We hope that you’ll be available for future visits.

Kylie was exceptional with our twelve year old boxer. She was very professional and easy to work with. Our dog LOVED her. In fact, I think she already misses her! Kylie is intuitive and comfortable with schedules and specific dog needs and diets. I was so very blessed to have found her! She also got our mail in and sent me many pictures and updates. She is phenomenal and one of those people that you just know are going to be successful and competent in all they do! I would love to have her come again and would not hesitate at all to do so! She felt like family!
