Christine was very good with our 2 dogs and cat. While staying in our home, she left it clean and cared for it as if it were her own. Definitely will call again.

Took fantastic care of my dog, who’s still in a very high energy phase of his life and has some reactivity issues. He’s also a drama king, and Bailey spoon fed him on one of his fussier days!

Paige was easy to communicate with and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog in her care. He is high anxiety and she did great with him and he was in great spirits when I got home.

Penny was great. She really listened during our meet and greet. The dogs (1 senior cocker spaniel and 1 middle aged active beagle) really seemed to love her. We came home to happy dogs and a well cared for house.

Judi was great with our nervous pup who hates to be alone. She was a very conscientious houseguest and communicated with us regularly about how our girl was doing. We're really happy we booked her.

Rachel did a great job housesitting for our two kitties who are a bit demanding. She took care of our mail, trash, packages, and other people coming and going from our home while we were gone. Highly recommend hiring her if you want peace of mind while on your vacation. Will use her again for upcoming trips.

Abby was fantastic in caring for my dog! She was communicative and updated me throughout my entire trip with photos. My dog is reactive and Abby was fantastic about meeting her where she was and attending to her special behavioral needs and schedule. I highly recommend booking with her—I know I will again!

Julie watched our two dogs for over a week and was great. She was extremely communicative about every detail - which we especially appreciated for the first couple of days as we adjusted to being away from the dogs. She sent photos, which we loved as well. She was a very courteous house guest, and reached out with questions when necessary. When our return home was delayed, she was flexible and helpful - even though it was Christmas Eve! We returned to a house that was much cleaner than we’d left it and happy dogs. Julie made it clear that her goal is to maintain the dogs’ routine so they’re comfortable, and that was exactly what we were looking for. That, combined with having the house so well looked after, gave us peace of mind while being away. We’d definitely recommend Julie!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with pets genuinely brings me so much joy. Whether they’re furry, scaly, feathered, or even a little slimy haha, I love getting to know every animal’s unique personality. Friends, family, and people around me often trust me as their go to pet sitter because they know their pets will be cared for with patience, love, and attention like they’re my own. I’ve got a really flexible schedule since i’m doing online school at the moment as well as working a part time job. I’m available just about anytime to help out. I treat every pet like they’re my own and do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and sticking to their normal routine while you’re away. I also treat every home with respect and leave things exactly as I found them. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

From our first meet-and-greet to our hand-off at the end of the sit, Bailey was a fantastic caretaker for my high energy and anxious dog, whose name is also Bailey! She is professional, clear with communication, timely, dependable, and consistent. She sent me updates and photos every day and responded quickly to messages. Bailey was patient and thoughtful with some of my dog's behaviors and helped reinforce some of the things I have been working on with her. She really went above and beyond- cleaning up the house, doing the laundry, and refilling the treat jar before I came home! I would absolutely welcome her back to my home to care for Bailey and recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and responsible sitter!

We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver to our 2 little dogs. Judy was absolutely wonderful with them and gave them the best attention and care while we were gone that week. Excellent communication throughout with pictures and updates and gave them so much love and attention. Took great care of our home and left things very clean when we returned. We will definitely contact Judy in the future to care for our little girls. So very grateful!

Caroline did a wonderful job. You can tell she loves animals plus has so much experience with them. I think Oliver felt he was at camp with his pals. First time nonfamily watched him and it couldn't have gone better. I was worried he might not want to leave.
