1. Christian W.
“Christian helped us last minute when we had a family day trip planned for months but one of our dogs had emergency knee surgery and all of a sudden couldn’t be left alone. He was incredible!! Kind, attentive, and followed all directions to a T! We will be using him again 100%!”
2. Katelyn S.
“Katey was great! She sent lots of photo updates of our pups and cat. It is so comforting to know our babies are with someone who genuinely cares about them. Thank you Katey!”
3. Casandra O.
““I can’t say enough great things about Casandra! She watched my dog, Malachi, for three weeks while I was traveling abroad, and her care exceeded all expectations. Not only did she handle two major hurricanes (Helene & Milton) during that time, but she kept my house clean, ensured Malachi was well-fed, and even took him to her home when my power went out. Despite being without power twice, Casandra remained calm, resourceful, and reliable throughout. She consistently sent me updates and photos of Malachi, and every time I reached out, she responded within minutes. Her communication was top-notch, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter!””
4. Megan F.
“I could tell our dog, Charles, was well taken care of during his time with Megan. Megan is also super responsive and sent us pictures all weekend. Will definitely book with Megan again!”
5. Kenneth C.
“Our 2 dogs seemed very comfortable with Kenneth. He stayed at our house with them for a week and came back to healthy, happy dogs. (And our house seemed cleaner than when we left.) We would highly recommend him.”
6. Alex e.
“Alex was great. First time using her and everything was great and the dogs liked her! She took them out for walks, potty breaks, and was great to them. She stayed over at our house and everything was perfect. I would use her again!”
7. Alison N.
“Alison took great care of our 2 boys and our house while we were away. They love her! I'm so happy to find someone we can trust when we need them!”
8. Nikayla G.
“Will definitely book with Nikayla again! She was so sweet and kept good communication if any needs popped up. My pups were super happy when I got home! Thank you Nikayla!”
9. Mickey M.
“Mickey clearly loves animals and Blinx quickly became her lap cat. When I left he was not eating normally and Mickey noticed that his face was swollen. She took him to the vet for me as I was out of the country. She administered his medication and followed his feeding schedule. I can't imagine how bad his infection would have got if she had not been so attentive. She even emptied and washed his litter box. Next time I need a pet sitter Mickey will be the first person I call.”
10. TJ O.
“TJ was awesome! Great communicator and handle our small canine/feline herd in spectacular fashion. Really put our mind at ease he was watching over our homestead. He was very respectful and we returned to a clean orderly home.”
11. Megan J.
“Megan (aka Elly May) is a true animal lover! Just knowing she has many cats, dogs, fish, and a lizard tells me she can take care of any type of pet. She watched our 6 cats for a week and did a FANTASTIC job. We were stress free having her take care of our babies and the house...it's so nice to come home to a clean, fresh smelling house! She's extremely professional, honest and caring. Loved her service and highly recommend to everyone I know. If you want your pet's treated like the family members they are, Megan's your girl!”
12. Audrey S.
“I highly recommend Audrey as a pet caregiver! She is incredibly responsible and compassionate and truly loves animals. Audrey is always attentive to every pet’s needs, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in her care. As a pet owner herself, it's easy to see how much she values the well-being of every animal she looks after. She goes above and beyond to make sure pets are not only safe but happy and healthy, providing peace of mind to pet parents. Audrey's dedication and love for animals are very obvious.”
13. Luciano B.
“Luciano was great at every step: communicative, clearly knowledgeable about dogs and super caring. Notably the pups seemed better behaved with him than us! We hope to work with him again. Thanks Luciano!”
14. Sunni W.
“Sunni has been watching my families dogs and cats for years and is one of the only people I trust to care for my beloved pets. She goes the extra mile to attend to all of their needs.”
15. Keilani D.
“We went on a vacation out of state and we had 3 dogs and 2 cats at the time. She stayed over night for about two weeks a little less than two weeks but we also have cameras in our home just in case one of our cats got into something they weren't supposed to. She fed them took them out religiously waking up at 6am and got home around 4pm on Wednesday. No pee smells the litter was clean She even cleaned the toilets and swept the floors. She would play with them and we let her watch TV and it was so cute that the dogs all sat with her and watched with her.”
16. Mandie C.
“Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!”
