Olivia was great with watching our slightly anxious and excitable cavapoo. She sent us regular updates, followed all our instructions to a T, and most importantly kept our dog calm and happy. She’s clearly an experienced sitter, and we were very comfortable leaving him in her care.

Mega was awesome! She took such good care of Ellie and kept us updated with photos and how Ellie was feeling. Ellie can be shy and anxious so it was really awesome to see photos of her being comfortable playing and snuggling. Our house was clean when we got home and we were so happy to know Ellie was cared for and safe!

Amy Beth was absolutely fantastic from meeting my cats before hand and sending updates and pictures during her stay! My cats loved her including my usually very shy kitty who needs a pill everyday. I came home to my place just as I left it and three very happy cats.

Olivia and Nick are fantastic. They care for our dog like he is their own and are wonderful about providing updates and keeping us informed while we are away. While it can be stressful leaving a pet for an extended period, we felt reassured knowing that he was in Olivia and Nick's care. We recommend them highly.

We have used Rachelle a few times now. Twice for day trips and most recently for several days and over nights. My animals bonded with her instantly. Even my cat that’s can not be bothered to like anyone loves Rochelle. I never worry about them when she’s with them. She seems to really care about the animals. Beyond that she leaves my apartment as she found it no matter how much I tell her to make herself at home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!

Yazmine did an amazing job taking care of our 4-month old mini Bernedoodle puppy at our house for a week - and I highly recommend her as a petsitter. Puppies are a lot of work, and Yazmine was very attentive to his needs and schedule. She was very communicative with us, including letting us know about any (inevitable) potty training accidents. She sent lots of pictures and even gave our pup a bath after picking him up from daycare! She also taught him how to walk up and down our interior stairs - something that he had been afraid to do prior to her stay. In short, she's great with animals and with people, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again in the future. Thank you Yazmine!!!

Anne did a wonderful job watching Chopper and our house for a long weekend. She generously agreed to do several meet and greets before the weekend in order to become one of Chopper’s people and was so patient with him. We also appreciated that Anne left our house spotless and even washed/folded all her sheets/towels. She is a gem!

Riley saved the day when we needed a super last-minute sitter, and we are so grateful! She is incredibly communicative, which helped ease our anxiety when we were across the country. When we arrived back home, she had cleaned our entire apartment and kept everything organized. Highly recommend booking with Riley!

Alona watched over my two dogs while I was away on a work trip, and she was great with communicating/sending updates with cute pictures. She was also flexible and understanding when timing needed to change a little, and asked great questions during our neet and greet. Definitely would recommend her and will be asking her to stay with them again!

Meave has been dog walking for us for a few months and has been great! Our dog, Piper, had a minor surgery and we didn’t feel comfortable leaving her alone while we were at work. We asked Meave to come and watch her all day to make sure she didnt mess up her stitches. Meave sent us great updates and made sure Piper never scratched! She was super flexible when we had to stay late at work one day. Thank you, Meave!

Larkin is everything you want when entrusting your animal to someone. We have a 13year old Weimaraner that has all the enthusiasm of her youth, but has picked up some added sass and health concerns over the years. Larkin was incredibly attentive to all of our dog’s needs and medication instructions, we trust her completely with our dog’s care. She is timely, patient and intuitive. Our dog adores her and is always excited for Larkin to watch her.

Hailey was fantastic! She took the time to meet Ruth before sitting her, and kept me updated with cute photos. I came home to an apartment cleaner than I left it, too.
