1. Ace G.

“Ace did a fantastic job with our busy puppy! She kept us updated and sent many pictures of our happy dog. The house was left in great condition! We would certainly use Ace again any time and recommend her 100#. Thank you, Ace for a great job. You put our minds at ease.”

“Samantha did an great job watching Peaches!! Peaches enjoyed seeing Samantha and wagged her tail as soon as she saw her. Thank you Samantha for your care and attentiveness to Peaches.”


3. Jayda "Adara" W.

“Adara did a fabulous job caring for our fur baby, Toby, in our home when we went away for the weekend! Toby is a bit (ok, VERY) quirky, and he doesn't do well with changes to his routine. Adara went above and beyond when caring for him. We felt very comfortable with her in our home, as well. Toby gives Adara a 10/10 for pet sitting, and so do we!”


4. Mary C.

“Mary had a great time with my dog and I look forward to more visit.”


5. Kaitlynn S.

“Kaitlynn was amazing! My dogs have special needs and their care instructions are very specific. She kept their routine and did perfect! She gave my dogs much love and attention. She is the only sitter I would trust with my dogs. After I got back home, I asked one of my dogs (she uses button communication) if Kaitlynn was nice and she said yes! 🐾”


6. Ashton Z.
“Growing up Ashton has had experience with taking care of a variety of family pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, bearded dragon, chickens and Rats. He has also helped me with fostering many dogs and cats throughout the years. Several times he has stayed home with our family pets while I was out of town. During this time he was responsible for feeding, walking, cleaning the litterbox and giving meds to one of our dogs. It has been a joy to have someone do dedicated to helping with the family pets and that we trust to leave them with while out of town.”


7. Julissa A.

“Julissa was amazing. She house/petsit for Thanksgiving week and our dogs Ramsey and Waldo adored her. She went above and beyond of what we asked of her, was in constant communication, and completely trustworthy. We will look forward to hiring Julissa again. Thank you so much for your hard and amazing work!”


8. Annina R.
“Nina is absolutely amazing! From the very first time she came and met Charlie, they formed a bond. With minimal instructions on caring for our fur baby, Nina was very responsible and caring, and took the time to share pictures of their adventures together! She adores dogs, and we could see that right away! Several days after she doggie sat, Charlie would wake up every morning and go looking for Nina in the room (and bed) they shared! Charlie misses Nina!!! I highly recommend Nina for anyone that adores their fur baby! Charlie is looking forward to seeing her again next month! 💕”


9. Kevin T.

“Kay is an excellent dog sitter. Communication is always clear and very accommodating with my changing needs and schedule. Kay was great with my dog, I love that she gets a lot of attention and exercise when Kay watches her. I highly recommend Kay!”


10. Hannah D.
“Hannah is an empathetic caring animal lover! She has had multiple pets in her life - both cats and dogs and she is amazing with them. She’s taken additional courses at Asnuntuck Community College in the Veterinary Science field to further expand her knowledge on animal behavior and animal care. Hannah will treat your fur baby like her own!”


11. Nikki & Britney S.
“Would 100% recommend! Last minute booking. Received updates and pictures throughout time sitter was with my pup. Prompt and very attentive. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”


12. Kim O.


“Kim took care of my 3 dogs and my son's fish for the better part of a week. She stopped by to meet my dogs a couple weeks before I left to be sure the dogs would be comfortable with her, and then again a few days before to go over their routine, feeding schedules and medicine requirements. My dogs loved her! She did a great job and my house was left in the same condition that I left it. She sent updates and pictures throughout the week and let me know when one of my older dogs joint problems started to flair up. By the way she should be a pet photographer...she made even my little rat dog look good!! She dropped the keys off as soon as she knew I was home in case she needed to feed them if I had gotten delayed. Will definitely be reaching out again if I have need of someone to watch my girls in the future!”


13. Jessica H.
“Jessica has cared for your dogs, cats, horses and chickens for many years! I can’t say enough good things about Jess. She’s always on time, very attentive and attention to detail. Our pets love her and are so excited to greet her every time she comes to visit them! She goes above and beyond every time she cares for our pets. We will continue to use Jess for all our pet sitting needs!”




14. Georgiana G.


“Georgiana was incredible! She stayed with my pups for 3 days and 2 nights and they loved her so much they were bummed when I came home! I would hire her again in a heartbeat!”


15. Hannah B.


“Hannah is awesome!! She took very good care of my pup, Lou! She spent a good amount of time with him each visit and kept me frequently updated with texts and pictures. She loved Lou like her own pup.”


16. Myomi & Joel V.


“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”


17. Robyn G.
“Robyn is a Cat whisperer! She takes her time to learn your needs and your cat’s personality. She had my cat napping on her lap in record speed! She loves cats and dogs and has so much love to give. Robyn is reliable, loving, and one of the kindest humans I’ve met. I trust her with my furbabies and highly recommend her!”


18. Andrew S.


“Andrew provided great care for my two pups and treated my home with respect. He went above and beyond to ask about their dietary or other needs my dogs had and ensured they were well cared for. Will be using his services again! Would high recommend using Andrew for your sitting needs”


19. Savanna G.
About: I’ve taken care of myriad animals, including my own cats, dogs, and exotic animals, since I knew how to walk. I’m a cat mom of three rescues, and can’t have a dog right now, so I’m living vicariously through others in need of dog related services :) I am a CNA, currently working second shift, as well as a student, predominately learning through distance education, and so my availability ranges from early morning to late afternoon, and picks back up around midnight on days that I am working. I currently have every other weekend completely free, as well as every other Monday and Friday. I treat other people’s fur children like they’re my own, and am respective of every clients property, privacy, and trust to treat their pets with kindness.


20. Sara C.
“We are the proud owners of an 8 year old diabetic cat, Chad. He is in need of insulin injections twice a day and a strict diabetic diet. Sara Cafaro took wonderful care of Chad and our other cat for a week while we were away on vacation. She did not miss a single insulin injection, kept up with Chads strict diet and made sure our other cat was taken care of! Sara is a very responsible, reliable, kind, and experienced young professional. She formed a bond with our cats that still lasts today! We highly recommend her for any pet care!”
