Shanisa was wonderful. She kept me updated everyday. She left my home cleaner than she found it. All my neighbors said she was nice too. Highly recommend and would/will use services again.

Rebecca is a great petsitter! She’s responsive, communicative, thoughtful, and very engaged. Our cats loved her (and one of them is a hard nut to crack) and we felt really comfortable having her care for them while we were traveling. Heartily recommend Rebecca!

We booked Michaela for house sitting and pet sitting for our two senior dogs. One of our dogs requires medication twice a day and has mobility issues due to advanced arthritis. Our other dog has a reserved personality and can be very difficult with new "humans". Michaela was WONDERFUL! She took time and care to make sure our "difficult child" was comfortable with her, she is the "dog whisperer", he did warm up to her and we even got a picture of him snuggling with her while we were away. She also took special care with our dog with medical needs and made sure we knew he had had his medication as scheduled. Her communication was great, letting us know how the day was going etc.! We felt completely at ease with her care! 10 stars!!!

Terry is simply the best. If we could rate 6 stars, we would. She spent a tremendous amount of quality time with Izzy. This was our first long trip away from Izzy our dog in quite a while, but Terry relieved our anxiety with daily updates, videos etc. She is a great communicator. Terry is incredibly thoughtful and an amazing dog sitter who bonded with Izzy. She also took great care of our house which was immaculate with an extra special touch upon our return. Terry was amazing, and we and Izzy look forward to her next visit.

Shari was better than great! First of all, she came to meet and greet the dogs two times to make sure they were comfortable before our trip. She did everything we asked while watching our two dogs. She has knowledge and experience with leash reactive dogs, which one of ours is. She was attentive and snuggly, which is what our dogs need. Sherry sent updates and pictures throughout each day we were gone. I would recommend her for your dog sitting needs any time!

This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of my family for a trip. I and my pups (especially Papas) were nervous. However, Rachel was super understanding and patient! She consistently communicated throughout the entire process. Eventually my pups were feeling more comfortable which was super helpful as I had multiple flights canceled due to a snow storm. Thankfully, Rachel was gracious enough to extend her stay! I felt such an ease of mind knowing that my animals were safe and sound with her especially during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend and utilize again!

About: I’ve casually pet sit for friends and family for years. Now that I have more free time, I’d love to take of your cat, dog, or other pet! I have a lot of free time while I’m researching how to become a public school teacher. As I spend some time figuring out my new career, I’d love to help out with your cat, dog, or other pet! I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own. I have experience caring for dogs and cats. I have been babysitting and nannying for years, so I’m very familiar with being left alone in a clients house. I know how to respect someone’s space.

Zhane was great! Our dog can be a little high maintenance and we were worried about leaving her with a stranger for three whole weeks, but everything was great. Zhane checked in often and sent pictures and videos and took great care of our pup. We came back to a clean place and a happy dog!

Courtney watched our girl while we got away for a holiday weekend trip with our grandkids. Whole we were away it snowed 6 inches! We were surprised to arrive home not only to an orderly home and Happy dog, but to a fully cleared driveway that Courtney has shoveled by hand! During her time with our epileptic dog, Courtney made sure that all her meds were given on time and she made mental notes about her neurological state, which she conveyed to us when we arrived home. Our weekend was much more relaxing knowing that Courtney was there to handle any medical emergency (thankfully there weren't any).

Casey was amazing again!! We cannot recommend her enough, especially since our dog can be a little nervous and not the best walking with new people. Casey made sure he was comfortable and still took him out for walks! She also kept us updated and communicated very well during the whole stay!
