Mark did a great job with taking care of my high-energy dog, Atlas! He took him on long walks and hikes to help burn his energy. He clearly loves what he does, and I would trust him to take care of Atlas again!

Carol was INCREDIBLE! She took such wonderful care of my dog Harper, and was great (and creative!) with her updates. She was also an incredible houseguest, leaving my place better than she found it. I would recommend her care to anyone and look forward to her taking care of Harper again soon!

Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of our two dogs and cat. Our younger dog had a tough couple of days of separation anxiety after we left, and she did an incredible job helping her get through it. We'd love to have Nicole watch our babies again!

Katelyn did a wonderful job sitting for our senior dog with significant mobility related special needs. She followed our detailed instructions, checked in regularly, and sent lots of updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care and would definitely recommend her and book her again.

I recently had the pleasure of having Omayma take care of my mini Golden Doodle while I was away, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment we met, it was clear that Omayma has a genuine affection for pets and a high level of dedication to her work. She ensured that my furry friend was well taken care of, from daily walks and playtime to making sure he was always comfortable and happy. Omayma's attentiveness and care put my mind at ease, knowing that my pet was in loving and capable hands. The regular updates and photos Omayma provided were a wonderful bonus, keeping me connected and reassured that my dog was thriving under her care. It's evident that she treats every pet as if they were her own, which truly sets her apart. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional service Omayma provided and will definitely be reaching out to her for any future pet-sitting needs. Highly recommended!
