Jamie was absolutely fantastic! Not only did my Baby Girl take to her right away - you can tell she is a huge dog lover. She is kind and respectful and sent me some pupdates as well. Both myself and my pup are looking forward to seeing her again and I would highly recommend her to family and friends alike. 5 stars all the way!

This is the first time using this service and I have to say I'm glad we did. They were awesome, we are very protective of our fur babies and selective of who can be with them. We were always kept aware of how they were with pictures and video. We have decided to continue using them and are getting ready to book another time in October of this year!!!

McKayla was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for my dog, Mable, and my cat, Kaiah. Mable is still a puppy with a ton of energy, so she can definitely be a handful, but McKayla was incredibly patient, attentive, and wonderful with her. She also took great care of Kaiah and made sure both pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. What really stood out was her communication. She sent so many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. She was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and kept me informed the entire time. Since she stayed in my home, I also appreciated how respectful and responsible she was. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Coming home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house made all the difference. I would absolutely book McKayla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Jess was amazing! She was so patient with our 12 year old vizsla and after less then a few hours, our dog warmed up to her and they became fast friends. We are so grateful to have found Jess and will use her again in a heartbeat. We just moved to the area, so finding Jess and trusting her to live in our brand new home with our dog has given us a lot of comfort!

I'm pretty sure Henry didn't miss me at all which is exactly what I hoped for. I couldn't have asked for a better experience in leaving my dog for the first time since I got him. Sky gave me daily updates (messages, pics and videos). Henry looked like he enjoyed every minute of the pet sit. Sky absolutely took great care of my little man. I would definitely recommend her!

If I could give a 100 ⭐️ rating for Cole I definitely would. I had a family reunion in another state to attend and my Molly is not only my emotional support animal but she’s also getting older and dealing with senior dog issues with hearing and seeing and getting weak in her back legs and I was panicking about leaving her in a kennel when my concierge sent me some people who could stay at my home and take care of her I carefully reviewed the list and immediately Cole stood out and I had a feeling in my heart he’s the one! We met before leaving town so he could meet Molly and she would get to know him a little and not be afraid. He kept in constant contact while we were gone and sent pictures of her cuddling with him. My heart just melted 🥰 We got home from our trip and Molly wasn’t expecting us and barked and backed up like we were strangers lol because she wanted Cole back. My husband and I are so very grateful and thankful for Cole and would highly recommend him for anyone who may need a dog/home sitter he’s a genuine person who truly loves and cares about our furry kids 🐶💖 I don’t know how to thank him enough for his kindness and love for our girl while we were gone.🙏🏻

I am currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry family members, with extra love!

Lindsey was super! Puppies were happy and well cared for while we were gone and we got regular updates even over a busy Thanksgiving week. Lindsey is an excellent communicator, asking questions about things along the way both prior to and during the pet sitting sessions. She took nice care of the house, and was just wonderful to work with. THANK YOU LINDSEY!

Victoria did a wonderful job. We called her last minute for an overnight get away NYE. We did a meet and greet and Bailee took to her immediately. He is a service dog to me and we were skeptical knowing this would be the first time leaving him. She sent us pictures, was very personable and affectionate to Bailee. I would definitely recommend Victoria for your pet sitting needs. I know if we ever need someone, she will be the first one we call. Thank you again Victoria for treating Bailee like your own!!

About: I grew up with two large breed dogs in the home at all times since i was born. I spent a couple years volunteering at PAWS Adoption Center in St. George, Utah and have experience with all kinds of pups: Big, small, old, young, fluffy, stinky. Bring it on! I currently own no pets and love animals. I'd love to give your pets some extra lovin while you're away! I work monday-friday during the day for 8 hours but have the ability to come home during lunch time for check ins, potty breaks, etc. I am free on weekends all day. My pets have always been family to me and your pets will be treated exactly the same. I am on this app because i love animals want as much of them in my life as possible. I'm extremely patient, attentive, and able to adapt your pets specific needs. I have experience as an in-house pet sitter as well and in my own home so this is familiar work for me.

Angie is awesome! I just got home and found everything just as I had left it. And when I had to leave for vacation, my sweet girl wasn’t feeling the best. Angie took everything in stride and took such good care of my pup while I was gone. I absolutely would not hesitate to have her back.

About: I’ve always had animals around at home, through fostering, and from volunteering at our local shelter, so pet care is just part of my life. I’ve handled everything from goofy, high‑energy pups to shy cats who need a slow, gentle approach. My fiancée worked at the same shelter for years, so I picked up a ton of hands‑on tips from her too. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets like my fiancée’s sister’s Frenchie and Lab, lots of cats with big personalities, and plenty of shelter dogs who just needed a confidence boost. I’m comfortable with shy pets, excited pets, nervous pets, and the ones who need a little extra patience. I’ve also given medication, done enrichment, and helped pets settle in when they’re unsure. Whether your pet wants couch cuddles, a walk, or even a silly dog birthday party (yes, we’ve actually done one), I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like family. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I keep a steady routine with time set aside for feeding, walks, playtime, and check‑ins. Even on busy days, I make sure every pet gets attention and consistency. When I’m house sitting, the only thing I need to work from home is a spot where I can plug into a hardwired internet connection. I bring my own portable desk, cords, and equipment, so I don’t need anything else from you. It never gets in the way of pet care. I’m still around all day for cuddles, walks, and company. I keep things calm and pet friendly with cozy spots, enrichment, and plenty of supervision. I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities like shy, energetic, nervous, or pets who need medication, and I always go at their pace. In your home, I follow your routine closely so your pet feels secure. In mine, I keep the environment relaxed and predictable so they can settle in easily. My goal is always the same. A stress‑free, loving experience where your pet feels safe.

Meara was wonderful with our Daisy. She was available and prompt and obviously loves dogs. Daisy liked her immediately. Meara shares pictures while we were away, and kept us informed of her schedule. In addition, Meara was graciously flexible when we had major flight issues trying to get back home and she made herself available with extra time while we worked out how to get home. She put our minds at rest knowing Daisy was being taken care of. We look forward to having Meara watch our baby again in the future.

About: My name is Rachel and I am a college graduate of RU. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Marketing with a minor in Business Analytics. I am currently in the process of studying for my Florida Teaching Certification. I am a Pre-K teacher at the moment. My love for teaching young children and education is something I pride myself on. With that being said, the school year wraps up May 21st, so I am looking for summer work while I have time off from school! For the entirety of my life, I have been around dogs. My family has had two miniature pinschers and a Jack Russel. I have dog sat for families with Golden Doodles, Australian Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Daschaunds - the list goes on! I am open to staying the night to watch dogs while their owners are away, coming to walk dogs during the day or even just keeping them company when need be. I would love to learn more about how I can provide help with watching your dogs in the future. I am currently off for the summer! I will possibly be getting a part time job in addition to dog sitting, but my schedule is super open and flexible! I treat your dogs just like mine - with lots of love and respect! I always make sure to keep the dog’s schedule on track in terms of eating, using the potty, playtime, etc.
