“Angelique was flexible, communicative, and super loving with our dogs. She was willing to come walk/meet the dogs prior and get to know them and our house. Her messages during the trip were informative, reassuring and had pics to make it easy to know our pups were doing well. We’ll definitely be adding her to who we reach out to for future trips. Thank you!”
“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”
“Dennis did an awesome job caring for our special needs dog who suffers from DM. Our dog needs the assistance of a wheelchair for mobility, and Dennis took on the challenge confidently- with patience and understanding. He sent plenty of pictures and updates, and followed our instructions perfectly. I highly recommend!”
“Elisa watched my dog Maude when I was out of town for a few days. She was super accommodating and flexible. She sent me lots of pics and updates and it looked like my dog, who has a history of separation anxiety, really liked spending time with Elisa. Elisa was also really great about leaving my apartment in the same condition I left it. I would not hesitate to book her for dog sitting or walking again.”

She has excellent communication, provides regular updates, and takes incredible care of our senior pup with complex medical needs. We always return to a clean home, which is such a thoughtful touch. Anais is a wonderful dog sitter - we highly recommend!”

Mary was a great fit for our dog and cat, Poppy and Lola! She stayed in the home with them while we were out of town and sent us photos daily (so we would miss them a little less!). Mary has a calm and centered demeanor and quickly gained our trust. We will definitely call on her again!
Daria was a great dog/house sitter, even with a last-minute booking and a sick dog. She watched our dog for over a week and even did an unexpected vet visit when she wasn’t feeling well and needed extra tests and adjustment in her medications. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands!
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Leo took amazing care of my 12-year old dog Jasper while I was away and made sure he was comfortable and well loved the entire time. It was such a relief to receive daily photo updates—some were adorable, and others were downright hilarious! It was clear Jasper was in great hands and enjoying himself. On top of that, he went above and beyond by tidying up around the house. Everything was neat and clean when I got home, and I could tell he had even vacuumed. It was such a thoughtful touch to return to a clean space after traveling. I highly recommend him and would absolutely trust him with my dog again!
Nia came through and saved the day! I couldn't have picked a better sitter for my boys. On top of being super responsive and accepting a relatively last minute booking, she also was very personable and kind. I was so thankful that despite not feeling 100%, she still watched my dogs. I think I can speak for Zeke and Smush in saying we are all happy to only book with Nia moving forward. She’s the best!
Faith was an amazing sitter for our dog, Nori. We really appreciated her experience with rescue and reactive dogs, which made us feel confident leaving our anxious pup in her care. Although Nori is sweet at home, she can be nervous and sometimes barky toward other dogs on walks. Faith’s calm, knowledgeable approach, and her experience with administering meds to put us at ease. She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages, which we loved! We also loved that she uses positive reinforcement with dogs. She was extremely responsive and easy to get along with and we could immediately tell Nori loved her. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking!
Alyssa has helped us twice now with our senior French Bulldog. Our dog needs 2 medications daily and has some special dietary needs and Alyssa has handled it all with great care and professionalism. But the best review is from our sweet pup who was excited to see Alyssa again when she returned. That was truly the vote that mattered. We travel a lot and finding care for our dog is our highest priority. Alyssa has been a wonderful find.
Lei Lei was awesome. She was super communicative from day one and took great care of our dog / house sitting, including several walks on the trails. Appreciate her stepping up for us last minute and for all the great photo/video updates. Would definitely recommend / book again!
Juliette was a wonderful house pet sitter for our husky and shorthaired cat, and they can be a handful! She was puntual, communicative, attentive to all the asks we had for the sitting, asked relevant details pertaining to the animals and the house, and took care of everything we asked for! She was also great at sharing updates and photos! We came back to a happy set of furbabies that were well cared for by Juliette, reliving us of the stress of leaving them behind whenever we need to travel. Highly recommended!
