“First time using Jill and all went excellent. Regular updates with photos and details. House was spotless when we returned home and the boys told us they had fun. Thank you so much. Look forward to next time”
“My family and I had an excellent experience with Jing. We have a greyhound with separation anxiety, and Jing was incredibly accommodating and understanding of our dog's individualized needs. She provided frequent updates and photos throughout her time house-sitting. We felt completely reassured and comforted that our dog was receiving exceptional care while we were away. We would wholeheartedly recommend Jing to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter.”
“Katie was top notch !! Katie was faced with on heck of a task with our 14 month old (pain in there butt) labradoodle! She went above and beyond to keep us in the loop at all times and treated our home as of it were her own. We highly recommend Katie”

“Abhay was absolutely amazing. On first contact, his enthusiasm to meet and greet both us an our animals was encouraging. We knew from first meet that we could be confident and comfortable leaving our babies and our home in his care for two weeks. We were not wrong. Everything went as planned and our babies and our home were cared for perfectly according to our requests. We would, without question, request his services again and highly recommend to others.”
“Audrey took great care of my dog, spent time playing with her, and made sure she got outside and exercised. She was also able to accommodate a same-day request when I was in a pinch, which was very helpful and much appreciated. Overall, a positive experience.”
“I had a feeling from my first phone interview with Lynne that she was a keeper. She is an amazing person and it is or quite interesting to hear her story. After she came by for an introductory visit I had no doubt she would smother them with affection and companionship. I also appreciated her obvious skill as an experienced dog owner in setting limits for their behavior. Her little tike Milo got along great with our girls. We will be booking her again for our next trip for sure. She is a Gem!”

I My 11 year old daughter is the BEST helper and a fellow animal lover. We have one adult cat, Queenie Zucchini. She is a sweetheart and has now had over 20 new cat friends come to stay with us so far. She has never been aggressive with any of our guest cats. She has even gotten quite attached to some of them! We have a large apartment and would be happy to adhere to any needs you and your pet have.. Just let me know how I can help! Regarding the timing of your booking. I do work Mon-Fri, but I can be available if I have enough notice. I am available all weekend, 24/7 with short notice even. I do ask that if you book - please do not book any drop-off or pickup earlier than 1pm on weekdays or before 9:00 am on weekends. No drop-off or pickups after 8:00 pm.

“Kate took great care of our Boston Terrier when we were away for 5 days. She stopped by to meet him the day before we left, and went over his schedule. She provided us with many pictures and updates while we were away. We returned to a happy healthy pup. Thank you Kate!”
“Melisa stayed with our two toy poodles all day on Christmas and could not have been nicer. She took great care of them and was so flexible and helpful. I would definitely use Melissa any opportunity we get.”
“Anna was great! She was so calm and comfortable with our anxious and high energy dog. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos throughout the stay. We would definitely have her look after our pup again!”
“Catherine was an amazing cat sitter and I would absolutely rebook with her again. She followed all of my care instructions very carefully and was extremely attentive to my cats’ needs while I was away. One thing that really stood out to me was how quickly she noticed an issue with my cat Bruce, who has chronic constipation. I had explained the warning signs to look out for before I left, and the very first night I was gone she noticed he was trying to use the litter box but couldn’t. She contacted me immediately, made herself available for a phone call, and followed all of the care steps I walked her through. Thankfully, Bruce improved a lot after that, and I was so grateful she caught it so early. She also sent constant updates and photos throughout the trip, so I was never left wondering how my babies were doing. Catherine house sat for two nights as well, and when I came home my apartment was exactly as I left it. I felt like my cats and home were genuinely cared for while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter.”

Hannah did an amazing job! We were a little nervous after a bad experience in the past with a kennel leaving our dog with a new person. Hannah came over and met us well before our trip. She was so good my dog loved her immediately so I felt comfortable going forward. She showed up promptly and was so good about me being behind schedule, took care of him while I packed up. I got updates and pictures while I was away. The house was in better shape than I left it and I can tell he got lots of attention based on his behavior when I got home he wasn't as needy as he normally is ;) We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.
Manal was fantastic!! I have never left my guy with someone who wasn't a family member, but she cat-sat for an entire week and I could not have felt more at ease. She was always in touch, sent me tons of pictures, and kept me updated so that I always felt like I knew what my cat was up to! It felt like she really cared about him and got to know his little personality and all of his quirks, and I could tell from the pictures she sent that he was so happy! I was so stressed leading up to that trip, but all of that immediately disappeared on day one. I can't recommend Manal enough - if you are like me and get nervous leaving your pet with someone else, Manal is your girl! She is gentle, attentive, and caring (all of his care instructions were followed meticulously). Thanks for taking such good care of care of my boy!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. We booked very last minute, and she was so accommodating and flexible, even with our special requests. She gave us daily updates that truly put our minds at ease, and it was clear how much she genuinely loved and cared for our dogs. They were treated like family, Charlotte even let them sleep with her! We came home to very happy, well loved pups. We’re so grateful and would 100% book with her again.
This is my second time using Chastity for a week of in-home cat sitting. My cat will often protest her wet food with a sitter, but I came home to evidence of her having eaten some fresh wet food, which honestly tells me everything I need to know. My cat felt comfortable with her, Chasity provided me with photos each day, and was easy to communicate with the whole week.
