This was our second time having Alex stay with our pups and she was just as amazing! Our boys always look so happy with her and it’s so nice to know they are in good hands while we are away. I’ve been recommending her to everyone!

Pagie took wonderful care of our pets while we were out of town. We have one dog who is very shy and timed with strangers, Paige did a wonderful job with her and quickly made progress with her. I knew she felt comfort when I was getting updates about their walks, Lilly never wants to go on a walk with a new sitter until at least 3-4 days in, she's definitely a dog whisperer. She also handled our rambunctious labradoodle with ease and gave lots of love to our kitty who is usually hiding away from the dogs’ craziness. Paige provided daily updates and pics which put this dog mom at ease. We came home to a clean home and happy pets, what more could we ask for! We’ll definitely be booking with Paige again.

Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.

Rachel did a great job housesitting for our two kitties who are a bit demanding. She took care of our mail, trash, packages, and other people coming and going from our home while we were gone. Highly recommend hiring her if you want peace of mind while on your vacation. Will use her again for upcoming trips.

Jacqueline was amazing. She took care of my almost 11 year old English Bulldog for several nights. Although he’s pretty mellow, he still likes his schedule and takes several meds. Not only was she an excellent caretaker to my pup, she also did a great job keeping the house in check while I was gone.

Olivia was great with our dog, Marty. Who is in need of a pretty specific schedule. Olivia went over and above by sending us pictures and/or videos each day we were out of town. And we asked if she’d water some plants while we were away and she was happy to. Would definitely recommend Olivia to others 🙂

Sarah did a great job staying at our house and taking care of our dog while we were away for the holiday. It can be hard to be away, and we really appreciated knowing Isabella was well cared for. Sarah was responsive to any updates or requests, was very communicative, and shared helpful updates throughout. She took Isa on outings and walks, and adjusted her care when Isa’s stomach got upset. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog. We hope to have Sarah stay with Isa again in the future!

From our first meet-and-greet to our hand-off at the end of the sit, Bailey was a fantastic caretaker for my high energy and anxious dog, whose name is also Bailey! She is professional, clear with communication, timely, dependable, and consistent. She sent me updates and photos every day and responded quickly to messages. Bailey was patient and thoughtful with some of my dog's behaviors and helped reinforce some of the things I have been working on with her. She really went above and beyond- cleaning up the house, doing the laundry, and refilling the treat jar before I came home! I would absolutely welcome her back to my home to care for Bailey and recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and responsible sitter!

Another amazing experience with Elizabeth who is by far one of our best pet sitters to date. Communication was exceptional with daily photos and anecdotes. Also, our home was cleaner than we left it. She even ensured the Easter Bunny arrived for our daughter while we were out of town. I would go beyond five stars if I could!

Annie was fantastic from start to finish! She was incredibly accommodating and flexible (especially important for us since our dogs are used to having two work-from-home parents around all day since Covid). We needed someone who could stick around and spend extra time with them, and Annie was more than willing. She quickly arranged a meet and greet and then stayed in our home with our two hounds for five nights. One of them has some separation anxiety and can be a bit timid, but he warmed up to Annie right away—a true sign of her calm and caring presence. She kept in great communication throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to two happy dogs and a spotless house. We’d absolutely book with Annie again!

Rilyn was the best! We got the cutest updates that I never knew I’d appreciate as much as I did! She invented new games for the dog and kittens. When I came home the house was cleaner than when I left (kittens getting into stuff might have had something to don with that!). The animals were happy. I have had a lot of dog and cat sitters and she is definitely top notch. We hope to have her back!

Caroline did a wonderful job. You can tell she loves animals plus has so much experience with them. I think Oliver felt he was at camp with his pals. First time nonfamily watched him and it couldn't have gone better. I was worried he might not want to leave.
