Mary took fantastic care of our two dogs for 8 days - she sent pictures and updates often, and was quick to respond to any messages we sent her way. We would be happy to have her petsit again in the future!

Morgan is wonderful! She came over for a meet-and-greet with our two older dogs a few days before she stayed at our house and they instantly loved her! She sent updates and photos and took great care of them and our home. I would definitely ask her to stay again.

Dakota was a wonderful sitter! Dakota came for a meet and greet a few days beforehand, and Wes was immediately relaxed. You can tell how much Dakota cares about taking care of your dog and their individual needs. We got several photos and updates throughout the time Dakota was watching Wes, which really put us at ease. We would absolutely recommend Dakota, and would be happy to have Dakota watch We anytime!

and my cat in my house for 1 week while I traveled to my country of origin. My house is very guarded and I have cameras running all day. Every time I looked at them, Luisa was doing something productive for me. Bathing my dogs, playing with them, combing them, took time to clean my house and I valued that a lot since it was not in the plans. Excellent person And very loving. I recommend it with my eyes closed. His only detail is that he doesn't speak much English but he understood everything I asked him perfectly. I hope my comment helps and good luck to her

Brielle was so great with Mellie. This was my first time leaving my dog since I got her 6 months ago and I couldn’t imagine a better person for her to be with. Brielle is very sweet and kind. She was attentive, patient, and loving towards Mellie. She sent me updates and pictures the whole time, too! I would absolutely recommend her to watch anyone’s fur-baby.

Adam is deeply committed to the well-being of any animal under his care. When I was his supervisor, I was always able to rely on him to take on any task and make sure it was performed effectively and with care. He always went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and healthy. When it comes to animals, he's a softy with a big heart, but don't tell him I said that.

This was our first sit with Tabitha and she did not disappoint. Punctual, courteous and conscientious, she also has a gentle demeanor which our dog Bella clearly appreciated. She kept us informed with pictures and Bella was happy and relaxed when we got back home. We will definitely hire Tabitha again if the need arises.

Haleigh took very thorough care of our dog and two cats over the holidays. While our dog is just pretty needy, one of the cats is on 2x a day meds and Haleigh found creative ways to administer meds even when he became suspicious of it in his food. She was very respectful of the house and kept it tidy. Even washed our sheets for us so we’d be able to crash after a late flight. Thanks so much Haleigh!

Jessie is a naturally caring person. Her interaction with pets is genuine and inspiring. She is also a responsible individual who can be entrusted with the care of a pet. She watched my dog for a couple of days and I could just tell how much my dog missed her in the days following and this was definitely due to her passionate care for my dog.

Joanne did a pet sitting job for us at our home in Denver, CO while we were out of the country for over a month in summer 2024. She traveled to us from Virginia, coordination for that was easy. She was amazing - she cared for our two pet bunnies and our dog as if they were her own. If I'm being honest they were probably cared for by her better than I do. Daily walks for the pup, bunnies brushed and loved on daily, and I felt she was very trustworthy in living in our home while we were away. She is a good communicator and responsive. I have no hesitation recommending her and would hire her again - in fact I already have hired her for more pet sitting this summer.

Sterling watched our beloved 7 year old golden for us for 5 days while we were traveled for the Thanksgiving holiday back in Texas. Sterling was so eager to get to help us and took the very best care of our girl. She sent me daily pictures of she and our golden outside in the leaves playing and on walks. She texted to make sure she knew correct details about when our dog was supposed to eat etc… Our dog clearly fell in love with Sterling in no time. She even hesitated hopping in our car when we went to pick her up and instead lead us back into Sterlings house wagging her tail. Highly recommend hiring Sterling to anyone needing a dog or house sitter. Sterling is so kind and genuinely wants to help because she truly loves animals, both spending time with them and caring for them.

We needed a pet sitter last minute for my 2 dogs a Lab mix and senior Miniature Pincher. Brooke was quick to respond and was available on short notice. She was very nice and took great care of our pups while we were gone. I booked Brooke for the overnight stays and it worked out perfect. My pups didn’t have to be alone. Communication was great. She sent updates and pictures every day. We met her the morning of our departure and she was very kind and up for the task. She also was able to give our lab mix her medication. I highly recommend Brooke. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.
