“My shy, nervous pup loved Eve!! She was very patient with him and demonstrated a lot of expertise in reading dog body language. We will definitely be booking with Eve in the future!”
“Aditi was wonderful! She's sweet, kind, reliable and was great with my skittish little guy. She's very responsive and I felt at ease leaving for a week knowing how well she communicates. I needed last minute changes and help and Aditi more than delivered.”
“Monique was wonderful. She stayed at our home and cared for our two older dogs and one cat with very little notice when we had to make a last minute trip out of town. She is friendly, courteous, professional and was extremely communicative with us the entire. She even had a good sense of humor when dealing with the "quirks" of our older dogs. We will definitely be using her again very soon!”
“Vinnie is a fantastic sitter! He stayed with our dog Andy while we were gone for nearly 3 weeks. He sent lots of photos, daily updates, and went above and beyond staying with Andy during Halloween and Diwali celebrations since Andy is afraid of fireworks. He took great care of our house as well. Knowing Andy was in good hands with Vinnie allowed us to fully relax on our trip. We recommend him 1000% and will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Daphne helped us when our sitter was out of town, and we are so thankful!!! She did a great job with Bogey, and sent us tons of adorable pics. Thank you again :)”
“We had a great experience with Rosemary! She came early so the dogs could warm up to her, which we really appreciated. She took amazing care of them while we were away and sent tons of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were comfortable and well loved. Highly recommend!”
“Sanya is a sweetheart and she took such a great care of my kitties that they didn’t even miss me while I was gone 😄. She is a good communicator and kept me updated every day with pictures. I also appreciated that she kept my house clean and neat while she was staying there. I will definitely be booking Sanya again when I am traveling next time.”
“I loved having Leo watch my dog and cats. They seemed to love him as well. My dog, Monty was happily exhausted when I got home from vacation. Leo sent me regular pictures and updates of how well they were doing. Additionally, he was respectful of my home, cleaned up after himself and put everything back in its place. I am always nervous when going away and leaving my pets and house in someone else's hands. Leo alleviates those nerves, and I would love to use him again.”
“Kierynn was a wonderful sitter to Sheila and our home. She communicated the perfect amount, followed our instructions amazingly, and took Sheila out for adventures. We’ll definitely rebook with her again in the future!”
“Almedra is such a sweet heart, she took a very good care of our dogs, sent us adorable pictures and kept us updated the whole time she was here. Is was so clear how happy the dogs were with her. We will be definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Allegra was amazing!! Probably the best dog sitter we've ever had. Very communicative, flexible, and on top of things (plus my dogs loved her). If you want to have a stress-free time, you should totally hire Allegra to watch your pets. I know that if I ever need a sitter in the future, she is going to be who I go to first.”
“Rasha was a godsend over the holidays. She sent frequent updates and pictures which allowed me to have a stress free Christmas with my family. And I could tell from the photos that both of my dogs were very relaxed and comfortable with her. I will definitely book her again!”
“Okay so Listen. I am not sure I can use Skylar again. My dogs loved him sooooo much, they were only mildly happy to see me🤣 Seriously tho, having Skylar stay with my guys gave me the peace of mind I needed to truly enjoy my vacation. I was super nervous about leaving the country and being so far away but now I will not hesitate. I got lots of pictures and updates and my house was left exactly as he found it. Thank you so much,Skylar!!!”
“Had an awesome experience with Alexa house sitting with our 2 dogs for a week! Her attention to detail at our initial meet and greet was super reassuring along with the types of questions she asked about our dogs/home. She was communicative and gave us updates about our dogs while we were away. Towards the end of our travel, she noticed our older dog showing signs of a reoccurring medical issue that has escalated quickly in the past and was able to get her to the vet before any surgical intervention was necessary. We are so incredibly thankful for her ability to spot an issue as well as her kindness and flexibility in getting my dog fast medical attention. Came home to happy and healthy dogs and a clean home!”
“Michael is our guy!! We have a large and in charge German shepherd that’s gotten a little more…stubborn in his older age and Mike was great with him. He made himself available to come over for a meet and greet before we needed his services to make sure everything was okay and he asked all the right questions and gave us all the reassurance we needed. Would love to book him again next time we’re out of town!”
