Al is an absolute gem of a human and animal care taker. This was our first experience with him and we will be using him again for certain. He was so good to our boys, especially our older, very sensitive / emotional boy who refuses to eat when we leave. He hand fed him to ensure he ate a little something, and made sure he got all the snuggles. Al is great and we appreciate him immensely!

Michele has been home sitting our pups since 2024. The pups love her. When they see her they get excited - a clear message to us of how well she treats them. We couldn’t ask for more. Because of the care she gives them - plus lots of messages and photos - we are able to enjoy our trips without guilt - and with the secure knowledge they are in safe and caring hands. We also commend Michele for how well she treats our home. It is as clean and neat as we left it upon our return. We truly appreciate that. If you need a gold medal pet sitter Michele is your person.

Nevaeh was such a great sitter! She loved on my dog and his best bud for a few days and was very communicative and made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!

Ross was fantastic. He asked very thorough questions about care for our dog, and how to be a good guest in our home. He stayed in regular touch with updates and photos, and We returned to a clean house and a very happy pup! Highly recommend him for walks, boarding or housesitting

Will is an incredible caregiver to my cats Pascal & Theo. He is the only person I allow to take of my babies. Theo and Pascal are very particular about people, but they love Will. Anytime I go out of town, he is there to feed, play, and love on my little guys. I always get reassuring updates letting me know all is well and everyone is happy. It is such a relief to know that a truly kind and caring animal person is looking out for my little guys when I can't be there. He is great with pets of all kinds: cats, dogs, even chinchillas! I highly recommend him if you need a reliable and trustworthy person to help with your pet's needs. You won't find a better person than Will!

Lily has watched our two cats multiple times while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter. She’s incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals—something that shines through in the way she cares for ours. Each time we’ve left our cats in her care, we’ve returned to happy, relaxed pets and a clean, well-tended home. Lily is also a fantastic pet parent herself, and knowing how well she takes care of her own animals gave us extra peace of mind. She sends regular updates and always goes the extra mile to make sure our cats are comfortable and loved. We feel so lucky to have her!

Melinda is my nervous dogs new best friend. She was soo patient with him as he required many visits prior to our vacation until he was comfortable and she was so patient with him. Even took care of my 19 year old deaf cat. She communicated daily with pictures, videos and texts describing how the pets were doing. I’m so lucky to have found her. Made our trip worry free. I feel like we hit the jackpot with Melinda!

Lily has watched my cat, Tofu, multiple times while I have been away. Tofu and I are both very anxious girls when separated. Lily put all my worries at ease! I got pictures and updates of my cat often, and I really felt like she was enjoying her time with her sitter. Lily is kind, responsible, and an amazing pet sitter. Would recommend to anyone nervous about leaving their pet behind! (:

Catherine was an amazing house sitter for my two furry kids (cat and dog). My kitty doesn’t “take” to unfamiliar people easily but Catherine earned her trust quickly. Catherine was wonderful with my pooch too. Both kitty and dog were very relaxed PLUS the house was immaculate when I returned home. I highly recommend Catherine!

Amanda housesat and cared for our dog Livie for a long weekend. We were so happy to have found her…she is a lovely person and took really good care of our house and our dog, who is skittish and not always the best with strangers. She updated us regularly with how Livie was doing, and clarified instructions as needed. We would happily have her help again!

Sophia and I fostered a dog together for three months and she showed her dedication and commitment to him every day. She was a very responsible owner, taking him on long walks often, waking up early to check on him in the mornings, and always making sure she was fed on time.

Payton did a fantastic job sitting with my dog. He's very apprehensive about going for walks with anybody but me and Payton was great with getting him comfortable enough to walk with her. When I arrived home he was sitting comfortably with her on the couch. She made him feel comfortable and relaxed while I was away. She provided frequent updates and photos which is important when away from your pet. And she left the house spotless.

Tom came over for a meet-and-greet with my dog and cat for a last-minute house and pet sit. He asked all the right questions, and his love of animals was apparent. He sent some pictures and texted updates. He even managed to walk my dog, who can sometimes not cooperate. I would not hesitate to have Tom care for my house and pets again.

Laura was wonderful!! She was punctual for our “meet and greet” and was very accommodating to the needs of my pup. I had never left him, as he is a rescue and has anxiety issues… and was very hesitant to do so, but Laura was wonderful in sending me updates and pictures to reassure me he was fine. I would definitely recommend her to someone who needs a sitter!!
