1. Elvia C.
“Elvia was incredible. She sent us updates throughout her time with our dog, Cora. She is very flexible and helpful in time of short notice. Cora was exhausted at the end of the day so she was taken great care of. We will 100 percent keep using Elvia in the future for our dog. Highly recommend”

6. Nicole P.
“Nicole was very responsive via text with daily updates and gave Mawii the best care while we were out. We got so many photos and videos to see how our boy was doing. She gave him his pills (not easy), fed him, played with him, and kept him super happy while we were away. Will be returning to her services for upcoming trips.”

“Alexis was incredible with our dog(Cody). Cody really loved and felt comfortable being around her. I don't think we'll find anyone as honest and friendly as her.”
12. David S.
“We feel so lucky to have found David; truly, we only wish that we had found him sooner! He is reliable, considerate, and, most importantly, our dog LOVES him. Our dog is older, with some medical issues, and can be standoffish to new people but David won him over almost immediately. We always have complete confidence and peace of mind that our dog is well cared for.”
13. Stephanie P.
“Steph is an INCREDIBLE dog sitter! She truly went above and beyond to make sure my new puppy had an amazing first week adjusting to his new routine. She was so patient with Ozzy and Ozzy very clearly loved his time with Steph. Steph even gave me training tips and provided very detailed updates after each visit- pictures and videos included! She understands dogs on a deep level and knows how to connect with them instantly. She also made sure my apartment was left even better than she found it and even contacted me when she realized there was a leak in my apartment! She went above the normal expectations of a dog sitter, and I feel so lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Steph for all your dog sitting needs!”

16. Ian C.
“Ian has looked after my Vizsla on several occasions, and I couldn't be happier with the care he provides. My dog always comes home happy, well-exercised, and clearly comfortable after spending time with Ian. It's clear he has a natural way with dogs and genuinely enjoys being around them. Having known Ian for years, I can confidently say he’s trustworthy, responsible, and experienced. I highly recommend Ian to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

19. Kenisha M.
“Kenisha was amazing! I was traveling overseas for 11 nights and needed someone to come in to check on my 3 cats, feed them and clean up after them. She was so sweet and caring and my cats were happy. Even my extremely shy one came out and let her scratch her head. I highly recommend hiring this beautiful soul to take care of your pets.”
