“Melinda was an amazing sitter for our cat, Finn. She gave me regular updates and even watered my plants for me. We would definitely recommend and will definitely use her services again!”

“Kellan is absolute GOLD. This is the second time I’ve had Kellan watch my dog, and my dog likes him more than me! My pup has recently had surgery, so when I needed to travel I wanted to make sure he’d be taken care and in extra special hands. Kellan gave meds, applied medicine to the area, walked him with care, and made sure he was cuddled and loved on. Sent pictures, checked in with updates, and even stayed with very late notice. Other than myself - I don’t want anyone else taking care of my dog. Kellan is gold!”

“Ryan watched our home and pets(cats, dog, chickens) for our 9 day vacation and he did a phenomenal job, he kept in touch with regular updates and gave the pets lots of love and attention. Ryan is definitely our go-to guy for pet sitting!”


“Michael took great care of Lola and Ringo in our home. They were as happy as can be when we got home after 8 days. It was great knowing that they were happy and being taken great care of while we were on vacation. We definitely recommend Michael.”

“Cynthia is the best! She is not only a lovely person, she is kind, conscientious, communicative and caring. She sent us frequent emails and photos of our pup while we were away, which we appreciated. It was delightful to come home to a very happy dog and immaculate house. I’d give 10 stars if I could. Thank you, Cynthia!”

“I could not have asked for a better human to stay with my Maisy puppy right after she got spayed. She needed extra care, to be calm and looked after as she was stuck in her e cone. Aaron is clearly an expert in pets and animal care. Definitely in tune with what my puppy needed such as when to be taken out for potty breaks and any special needs or treats that could be provided to entertain her. Or if she just needed to rest. They were punctual. Very prompt in getting back to my questions. They sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Maisy loved them. We got lucky to be able to have Aaron's care for the day. Busy for a reason. Because they are one of the best care takers. I would be thrilled to be able to utilize Aaron's services in the future and trust them implicitly in my home and in the care of my puppy. My cat who usually hides and sleeps all day got up to be with them. That says something. Thank you!!”


“House was returned just the way we left it and our Dog Cam was waiting with a wagging tail. Easy meet and greet session prior to booking eased my mind as well. Highly recommend.”

“Phedre is awesome! We have used her three times now, and every time we have come home to happy dogs, a clean home and washed linens! She is also great at staying in touch with pics of our two dogs! Sure helps knowing they are being cared for while we are away!! Thank you, Phedre!!”

“Dyllan has a quiet and calm demeanor which I feel is ideal for anxious dogs like ours. Our dog was comfortable with her right away. Dyllan is responsive and a good communicator. Dyllan was engaged while receiving information about our dog and home. She used that information to try and maintain our dog's routine which we all know is a great way to keep pets comfortable while their family is away. Dyllan has not shown anything other than being worthy of trust. I recommend Dyllan and would be fortunate to have her stay again.”

“Adia took great care of our dog while we were out of town for the weekend. Our house was clean and Willa was happy when we got home! Adia took her for walks and to the park every day. When we met Adia she was very personable and easy to get along with. She put our worries at ease when making the decision to leave our dog in her care. We plan to use Adia again!”

“Sara was amazing! She took incredible care of our dogs and house, so much so that we’ve already asked her back for another weekend! They went on very long walks everyday which was very appreciated. She also went out of her way to get so many special treats for the dogs, including a burger from in and out as well as a pup cup! Our house was spotless when we came home which was so appreciated after long travel days. We 10/10 recommend Sara!”

“Candy is a treasure. She took great care of our dog and handled a medical urgency in a timely, professional manner. She communicated well and our dog loves her. Highly recommended.”

“Deb was great with Dallas. She provided daily updates and spent a great deal of time with him. Deb walked Dallas often, allowing his cattle dog self to enjoy the outdoors. She genuinely cares for pets and wants to ensure their safety and joy. Deb also was a great house sitter who cared for the home like Dallas. I highly recommend Deb for a future stay.”
“Christopher was so helpful and did a terrific job for us house-sitting and watching our dog while we were out of town recently. We will definitely hire him again!! He came over for a meet & greet ahead of time & communication was excellent before and during our trip, so I felt very comfortable & knew our home & dog would be in good hands. He kept me updated with pictures, our home was left immaculate and he was prompt, courteous, and our dog loved him too. We are grateful for the awesome help that enables us to get out of town, and we highly recommend his services.”

“Allison was a wonderful sitter for my 12 yo Corgi who has some pretty serious health issues. She was extremely responsible and followed all the directions I gave her plus she did more to make my little dog feel comfortable. She walked Lily at least once daily and played and sat with her on her level (floor). She communicated daily and always accompanied the text with pictures. I have nothing but great things to say about Allison’s care. She is truly a dog lover and I would not hesitate to call her again.”
