“She was extremely kind and helped with everything we needed for our cats! We loved getting photos to show us how they are doing! She is super responsive and helpful.”


2. Alayna L.

“Alayna did a great job watching my dog Sully while I was away on a work trip. I told her before my trip that I wasn’t used to leaving my dog home on my adventures and that I was a little stressed about it. She reassured me with great detailed updates and pictures that Sully was happy and loved while I was away. She made sure he got plenty of playtime and exercise, cuddles, and food/water throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her for other pet owners feeling a bit anxious to leave their furry friends, and I’ll definitely work with her again.”

10. Sophia Megan Y.
“Sophia is the wonderful mother of her three lovely pets: her beautiful dog Hunter and two cats, Dexter and Midnight. With over 9 years of experience with her animals, I can assure you Hunter, Dexter, and Midnight have experienced nothing but tender love in her care. In the time I have been friends with Sophia, her kindness and attentiveness has translated to her being one of the most caring, responsible, and attentive pet owners I’ve ever known. Her love for animals runs deep, and it’s evident in the way she excitedly shares updates and photos of her pets. Sophia's genuine love for animals is unmistakable. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, kind-hearted, and truly understands the needs of your pets, I couldn’t recommend Sophia more highly as a pet sitter or walker. You can rest easy knowing your pets are in the most capable and caring hands!”

13. Mariah C.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mariahand the care she provides for animals. Her love for all animals is deeply genuine and shines through in everything she does. Whether it’s taking the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, going out of her way to make sure they’re comfortable and happy, or simply offering them loving companionship, Mariah treats every animal like her own. She’s incredibly responsible and dependable, always showing up with a smile and a calm presence that animals naturally gravitate toward. I’ve seen her go above and beyond more times than I can count. From making late-night check-ins, hand-preparing meals for picky eaters, and even sitting with anxious pets just to reassure them they’re safe and loved. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pets as much as you do, Mariah is that rare kind of person you can trust wholeheartedly.”


14. Victoria P.

“I couldn't be happier with the pet-sitting services provided by Victoria!! She cared for my dogs with immense love and attention. My pups were well-fed, played with, and given lots of affection. I highly recommend Victoria for her exceptional care and professionalism! She was so sweet and took SO many great photos of my dogs, and left detailed reviews on her visits. I felt SO comfortable on my trip knowing they were with her! 10/10 can’t wait to book her in the future!”


15. Serenity S.

“Very easy to work with, she was patient with me even though I was disorganized and had to have the property manager come unlock my door for her. I’d highly recommend Serenity!”

18. Terry Y.
“I met Terry Yung about 4 years ago and every day since then has been her proving how gentle loving and caring she is. From the day we met she showed a passion towards taking care of and loving animals. Her attitude towards the critters and creatures of our world prove without a shadow of a doubt that she is the single best choice for to be around dogs. On top of all of this, she has shown such extensive knowledge and willingness to learn that makes her a unique candidate that cannot be missed. Choosing her means choosing a responsible amazing person to take on this task and there is no better person for the job. She is the definition of one of a kind and the only concern youd need to having the dog falling for her and never leaving.”
