Oli helped us out on really short notice and took fantastic care of our pup. It was such a relief to know our girl was getting love and attention while we were away. Thank you, Oli!

Rosemary is the best! She provided our animals a wonderful care experience and was very thoughtful in watching our house while we were away. Rosemary is also very communicative, letting us know how our animals were while we were away.

Jordan has watched my dog and cat a few times now and has always been great. My dog has separation anxiety when I’m gone, but I know he’s in good hands and she takes good care of him. Will continue to book with her for future needs!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

So glad to have found Keaton shortly after moving to town! He stayed in our home with our dog and cats for a couple nights and took wonderful care of them and the house. Our dog is usually a nervous wreck after we've been gone a couple days, but it seems that Keaton's company was enough to keep him happy and relaxed. Thanks so much, Keaton! Will definitely be booking again!

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.

Amber took great care of our two dogs and house while we were visiting family. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates. Our one pup is a little more anxious than the other and she was very patient with him as he warmed up to her. She also left our house very clean and brought in our packages and watered our plants!

We needed a Rover pretty last minute and Jerica was able to help us in a pinch! She agreed to a meet up so we could get to know her a little bit and have the dogs interact with her. She didn’t leave our dogs for very long periods of time and let them run around in our backyard constantly! They were some happy girls! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come back to!

Aubrey watched our two small dogs while we were out of town for a day and a half and she did a fantastic job. She sent pictures and videos of the dogs out walking and while hanging around the house. She also washed their bowls and vacuumed. I'm a bit particular with how my dogs are cared for and she did a great job. Will definitely use her again in the future.
