Anais took excellent care of Rumple, made sure she had all the particulars and asked thoughtful questions to be prepared to care for our guy. She even dealt with an embarrassing lock out situation that was completely my fault with patience and grace. I eagerly recommend her services and will definitely request her again next time Rumple needs company. Your pet is in great hands with Anais.

Charlii is an awesome pet sitter! She has taken care of my two pups and one kitty many times now, and I can leave with confidence that they will be cared for with lots of love. She takes the dogs on nice long walks, reliably gives medication to my aging kitty, and looks after my home with care and consideration. All of the pets and I just LOVE her!

Ruby is an excellent pet sitter who has taken care of my dog, Belle many times. Belle is always excited to see Ruby, which I think is great as Belle is very old and hardly gets excited for anything anymore!

I wish I could give Adrienne more than 5 stars! She took such great care of our two dogs and our home (it was cleaner when she left than when she got there!). She is a great communicator and sent plenty of updates and photos that made it clear the dogs were having a great time. She went above and beyond with the house (taking out the trash bins on garbage day, collecting packages for us, washing the linens from our guest room, etc.) and the dogs loved her. Thank you so much Adrienne and Edgar! We were so comfy on our travels knowing you were taking such great care of things at home.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Leo both personally and professionally for the past 10 years, and I can confidently say that he is one of the kindest, most thoughtful, and caring individuals I have ever met—both with people and with dogs. He has an incredible way with animals, a true "dog whisperer," making even the most hesitant dogs feel comfortable and at ease. Leo has cared for many of our friends’ dogs, and I personally entrusted him to drive my beloved poodle all the way to Oregon to stay with my daughter. His reliability, conscientious nature, and deep sense of responsibility make him someone you can fully trust with your beloved companion. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pet with love, patience, and the utmost care, I cannot recommend Leo highly enough. Your dog couldn’t be in better hands!

Sarah is so personable and sweet. I chose her because she seemed really compassionate towards older doggies. I felt bad because my doggies have so many supplements and medications. Easy to communicate with and just a very overall nice calm energy about her😁

I can’t recommend Janesta highly enough as a dog sitter! My yorkie, Scotty, is a low-key pup (post zoomies) who absolutely adores humans and lives for cuddles, and attention. Janesta was the perfect match for him, and I couldn’t be happier with the care they provided. From the moment they met Scotty, it was clear they understood his mellow personality and need for affection. Scotty warmed up to them immediately, after being seduced by excellent behind the ear rubs. Janesta made sure he got all the snuggles and love he could possibly want, while also keeping him comfortable and content during the day. What really stood out was the way Janesta connected with Scotty. He drinks up their head and nose kisses and being babied by them. They kept me updated with sweet photos of him lounging around and gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. If you’re looking for a sitter who will shower your pup with love and treat them like family, Janesta is the one to call. Scotty and I are so lucky to have found them!

Juniper is a nervous cat and it’s easy to see when she’s upset because she’ll hide and, fun fun, throw up. I could tell that Kerri took great care of Juniper because when I got home Juniper was calm and loving. Kerri’s pleasant and easy to work with. I’d definitely hire her again!

Emma was great! She gave us regular updates with cute pictures of our pups. Emma was also good about asking questions when she had them. She let us know when she was heading out and left our place in great shape. I highly recommend Emma and look forward to having her watch our dogs again in the future.

Sarah was fantastic. She has watched my dog Kevin 2 times now and we are so appreciate of the love and attention she gave him to him. She sent picture updates daily. She took him on plenty of walks. She lets him sleep in the bed and just treats him as her own . We highly recommend Sarah!

Laura has been an amazing caregiver for my dog, Reese, time and time again. I’ve hired her multiple times during holidays and work trips, and she always exceeds my expectations. Reese feels comfortable, happy, and completely trusts her. I’m usually nervous about leaving my dog with strangers or at dog hotels, but Laura provides the perfect solution by staying at my home so Reese can remain in his own familiar space. It’s never easy to be away from my dog for an extended period, but knowing Laura’s dedication and love for dogs gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her!

About: I’ve always been around animals, more specially dogs, my whole life! I love taking care of them in anyway possible! Brushing, feeding, walking, etc! They are the furry friends we all need in our lives! I work a part time job that doesn’t give many hours, so I have tons of extra time to care for and love your fur babies! I would love to play with and give treats to your animal, as well as groom and make sure they get the most love ever to keep them happy and healthy!!
