1. Tatum L.

“Tatum was awesome. She took the best care of my dogs (5 of them) and my house. Kept me informed of everything including coyotes who broke through the fence and snowfall we had, shoveled a path for our big boy to do his business, Swept the floors and took out trash. She even brought in the mail. We will definitely use her again.”


2. Jenna K.


“Jenna did a great job of loving on my pets while I was gone. I came home to a clean house and everyone was happy and healthy. She did a good job of keeping me updated and sending pics. I would definitely recommend booking with her for your pets, they will love her!!”


3. Elisa O.

“Elisa helped us and our furry fires through a though time while we were away and we will be forever thankful that someone with so much kindness in their heart was our pet/house sitter. Our eldest pet, Beau, was diagnosed with advanced stange heart failure and put on medication about 3 years ago. For any of you who knows about Vetmedin you know that it was amazing that he lasted as long as he did. While we were on vacation his kidneys gave out, a side effect of the medication. Elisa was there for him, helped us get him to the emergency vets and cared for him on his final night when we couldn't be there.”


4. Valory N.

“Valory is amazing. She’s professional, courteous, attentive to detail, and willing to go the extra mile; not just for the owner, but also for the dog! My pup whined more when she left then when I did for my trip. 100% rebooking with her in the future. Couldn’t ask for more.”


5. Cassaundra W.

“Everything was great! All of my babies loved Cassi and were well taken care of. All instructions followed and house left neat and tidy. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”


6. Ashlie S.

“Ashlie took great care of my dogs, including giving medication twice a day. She sent updates and photos to me every day that we were gone. She stayed at my house during an extreme burst of cold weather and dealt with a testy furnace and left my house very tidy and clean. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”


7. Susan M.

“Susan is one of the best sitters... Always looking to keep our dog and cat entertained and healthy... Feeds when and what I want them to have.... So good...”


8. Deborah L.

“The dogs love Deborah, she must give them all of the cuddles they need. She watched our 100+ lb Newfie and Rottie over Thanksgiving week, and they had no complaints upon our return! :) Their food ran out while we were gone and she cooked them up a rice & turkey meal for Thanksgiving when their Chewy delivery was delayed. She also kept the house as clean as humanly possible with the yard being 90% mud during the rainy week. 10/10 our go-to sitter, thanks Deborah!”


9. Andrea G.
“Andrea is my go-to when it comes to pet sitters. I specifically request her to watch my cats when I travel, knowing that she will take care of my boys without issue. Andrea is a detail oriented and caring individual who follows my care instructions perfectly. With her I have yet to come back home to a smelly litter-box, a hairball on the floor, or a trash can full of aging dried cat food. My cats have adjusted well to her care and do not hide when she is around. Andrea is a true pet enthusiast and an excellent caregiver, I cannot recommend her enough!”


10. Aaliyah R.

“Aliyah was the best dog sitter we’ve ever had and we will be asking her back in the future. She communicated quickly and professionally right off the bat. She was very loving with our dogs and sent pictures and videos while we were away. She has a sincere and peaceful demeanor that helped our minds stay at ease while we traveled far from home! I highly recommend her services.”


11. Alana A.

“Lana was very loving to our old (almost 16 years old) deaf, blind shih poo. Sophie had a couple of medical issues which required Lana to administer 3 different medications. She handled it beautifully. We were very comfortable going out of town for several days, thanks to Lana”


12. Ben P.

“Ben did such a great job! Even my shy and less friendly cats grew to like him and be out and about the house when he was here. He sent me daily updates and some great photos. Truly the most relaxed I’ve been on a vacation recently, knowing my cats and my house were in such good hands.”


13. Katarinna M.

“Katarinna provided us with excellent service. She is very conscientious keeping us fully informed during her stay with our dog. She was most attentive to our dog’s needs as he is a high energy dog and requires a significant amount of interaction.”


14. Ashley M.

“Ashley was very kind and flexible enough to help us out on short notice with crazy change of plans. Everyone was well taken care of.”


15. Caitlyn L.
“Caitlyn is a well trusted. My dog Clifford loved Caitlyn! I felt at ease while Clifford was with Caitlyn. I would book again with Caitlyn.”


16. Nyska M.

“Nyska was wonderful with Sophie and made my crazy schedule work on short notice. I appreciate her love for my fur baby”


17. Tori S.
“Tori does a fabulous dog taking care of our 3 dogs! She gives them cuddles, plays with them , and takes them for walks ! Tori is very responsible and someone who your family can trust .”


18. Shalah D.

“Absolutely amazing! I booked last minute for a holiday weekend and Shalah was great! She stayed in contact and was very easy to work with. If I was staying in the area longer I would definitely book with her again!”


19. Cassandra W.

“Cassie was great with my girls! A previously booked sitter had to cancel short notice; Cassie was super flexible, arranged a meet and greet the day before I left and was there right on time. I got lots of pictures and commentary throughout my trip; I arrived home to a neat house and happy fur-babies. Can’t recommend her highly enough.”
