“Olive is like family! She goes way beyond to love your pets like you do in your absence. We could not be more happy with her TLC of our darlings and home.”
“Lisa was communicative and responsive about Pepper and the two appear to have got along fabulously. Like I don’t think my dog missed me at all. I felt really comfortable knowing she was taking care of my dog in my home. I plan to request her services again very soon.”
“Dana did a great job watching Sophie for a week! I came home to a tidy home and a happy dog. She provided frequent updates and made it clear that Soph was well cared for.”
“Erin was amazing and took great care of my little senior Yorkie, Olive. Erin was always easy to get a hold of, and sent frequent updates and pictures! They took great care to be clean and respectful of my apartment as well. Highly recommended!”
“Sarah did a great job with our animals. She was very communicative and followed through with everything I asked. She left a very light footprint at our house. It was as if no one had been there. Everything was clean! I am already trying to rebook her :)”
“Allie did an amazing job watching my 2 little dogs! She was so patient with Ruby, who isn’t great with new people. She was also patient with Dary, who gets super excited around new people! She took such great care of them and sent updates with adorable pictures! I will 100% book Allie again!”
“Our dog Bubbles loves Diane! She was so communicative, sent lots of pictures, and our house looks better than when we left! We will definitely be rebooking 😊”
“Alex was great puppy sitting Kona and Gus. They are a handful in their own ways but Alex was quick to warm up to their individual needs which made is easy for us to leave our babies with her for a week. She also took great care of the house while we were gone. Kona and Gus will definitely be seeing Alex again soon. Thank you!!”
“Deven was very thoughtful and engaged with Albee's best interests at heart! He kept us up to date and sent multiple photos daily. Really appreciated his attention to detail!”
“Kaytlin is a cat whisperer! She took wonderful care of our cat (Gizmo) for 8 nights. Gizmo requires a lot of human interaction/stimulation and Kaytlin came up with creative ways to play with her to keep her interested, had a lot of quality snuggle time with her, and managed to get her harness on to spend quality outdoor time throughout the week. This can be challenging because Gizmo loves spending time outdoors but can be very resistant when trying to put her harness on, so I was thrilled she persevered! Kaytlin sent the BEST photos of them spending time outdoors, playing, and cuddling. I've never seen Gizmo warm up to a cat sitter the way she warmed up to Kaytlin :-) Kaytlin also responded quickly to all messages so we felt very comfortable that Gizmo was well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Kaytlin for cat sitting.”
“Amy’s lovely, very easy to communicate with, sent regular updates and pics, and was even willing to do a hand off with my neighbors who were sitting for me next. I definitely recommend her!”
“Very communicative and took such great care of our pups! Would use again in a heartbeat!”
“Looking for a consistent sitter who loves your pup? Pick Jenna, she’s great! Jenna is a great house sitter too, clean, reliable and attentive. We highly recommend Jenna as your home/pup sitter.”
“Alyssa was wonderful. Our pups absolutely loved her. She was responsive and sent pictures often during her stay. I will definitely use Alyssa again.”
“Mandy watched our dog Leroy for one night at our house -very communicative and punctual. She took Leroy to multiple dog parks and he had a great time!”
“Alison watched our two wild corgis for one night and sent ample updates! You can tell she has a lot of experience and I knew they were in good hands with her!”
“Karin took excellent care of our two dogs and two cats. She showed great care and attention to detail for all their routines and medical needs. She checked in with us everyday and made sure the house was reset before she left. We look forward to working with her again.”
“Kristy is amazing and we are so lBlessed to have her watch Kaya and Big. Genuine, caring and authentic care for our doggies this weekend. We were able to enjoy the event knowing that the doggies are in great care and hands with Kristy.”
