“Rachel is a fantastic. She’s very sweet, she left the house clean like she found it, put her sheets in the wash, got the mail and took wonderful care of my two labs. I will use her again, highly recommend!”
“Absolutely AMAZING. I rarely trust anyone, ever. I never leave my fur babies with anyone I do not know and I feel like I have known Elizabeth my whole life. She is just THAT amazing!! She provided us with updates and lots of pictures which we sincerely appreciate since we have never left our fur babies for the holidays! 13 out of 10 would recommend and we cannot wait to use her again very soon! I mean, come on, she is the best of the best and if this review doesn’t get you wanting Elizabeth to watch your fur babies then what’s wrong with you!? We absolutely love her and so do Brady and Apollo! ???”
“Very responsive, and a great job caring for Cooper while I was out. Very much appreciated the photo updates and messages throughout the week to keep me informed. Zach was meticulous with understanding all detail details for Cooper’s care. Highly recommend him!”
“Dwayne took good care of my 50 pound pittie. He was not phased by his various quirks and kept in touch with me while I was away. When he wasn't sure about the meaning of a minor behavior change, he checked in with me to make sure it was nothing to be concerned about. When I returned, my home was at least as clean and tidy as it was when I left. I will happily hire Dwayne again.”
“Daniel took exceptional care of our two dogs. He was very communicative, kind, and accommodating. I felt at ease from the moment we dropped them off, and Daniel continued to make me feel so throughout their stay. I highly, highly recommend him!”

“Jenna was amazing! Our cat, Peter, appeared to warm up to her very quickly. She made sure she spent quality time with him. She left our house just as clean as when we left, if not cleaner! I’ll definitely be recommending Jenna to others.”

“Magaly was great! We contacted her last minute for her to house sit and take care of our dog. She was great and took great care of him. She was quick to respond when we checked in and sent us pictures of our sweet boy. . She also left our house very clean. We would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hello, I go by Sol (They/He). I love meeting fur babies and getting to know them both their likes and dislikes. I also like making up little songs for them on the spot and will sing to them if they allow it. I have been caring for my own kitty for over 8 years but have had more experience in the last years with cute dogs, cute cats, and a lizard friend. If you welcome it, I will spam you with photos of your baby while you are gone. I am currently taking online classes and have a flexible working schedule (work from home). I can work with your schedule to ensure your fur baby has optimal potty breaks, scheduled meal time and lots of love and attention. For house sitting services: I am currently unable to sleep over because I need to give my cat some attention but I will arrive early and leave late and plan to stay at your home most of the day. Happy to answer any questions. We will play games and if they like it, I might sing them a little personalized song. If they like cuddles, I love cuddles! If they prefer some distance or are shy, I'll make sure they are safe and comfortable.
“Melissa was a great pet and house sitter. She watched my two senior pups for a few days and did not mind having to give them medications after a surgery. She was great about providing updates and communicating to let me know how they were doing. I highly recommend her and will reach out again.”
“Ariana was fantastic! She was incredibly flexible, even letting us switch the dogs out at the last minute, which we really appreciated. She communicated quickly and clearly, making everything so easy and stress-free. Our dogs were happy and well cared for, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”
“Chad was a wonderful dog sitter for us! He was great with communication and even went above and beyond and picked up after our dogs. We would recommend Chad to watch your dogs and would gladly hire him again.”
“Taylor is amazing! She took care of my two dogs at my house while I was out of town and communicated everyday as to how things were going. They were going great as proven by the photos she sent me. When I came home, the house was just as I left it and the dogs were calm and happy. I would give her 10 stars if I could!”
“Jaynell is the best!! She took great care of my dog Juneau and was super easy to meet and get set up. She’s really nice, and instantly from meeting her you know your pet will be in the best hands. I truly appreciated having her to watch my dog and definitely will be looking for her in the future!”
