2. Marianne L.
“I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter! My puppy is like my baby, so finding someone I could trust was very important to me. From the moment they met, my pup felt comfortable and even gives her kisses—which says a lot! I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in safe, loving hands. She provides the best quality of care, always sends me pictures, and responds quickly to any messages. I couldn’t ask for more!”

Thank you again to you both! 🙏”
9. Charlene C.
“Charlene was wonderful with our animals and sent plenty of pictures and updates during her stay. She was quick to reply to my messages, offered to meet up a couple times before the stay to make sure all the animals were comfortable with her, and she made sure our house was cleaned up before we got home, as if we had never left! I will definitely recommend Charlene for anyone who needs a pet sitter!”
10. Nicole G.
“Nicole has been amazing since getting our new puppy Bailey. We first used her services for house drop ins, and recently had to take an emergency family trip for 3 days which we booked Nicole to house sit. It is always nerve-wracking to leave a pet let alone let alone a puppy at 5-6 months, but we knew from how Bailey has enjoyed her house visits Nicole would be the best fit. Nicole was communicative the whole time and sent lots of cute pictures of Bailey and it made us happy to see how happy Bailey was! Thank you Nicole - 10/10 recommend and will absolutely book again!”
11. Neil A.
“This review won’t be much different from the dozens of positive reviews already left for Neil…the dogs are healthy, happy & seemed to have a great time with Neil while he stayed in our home this week. He was great- hands down the best sitter we’ve had. Thank you Neil 🙌🏼🐶”
12. Leiya T.
“Leiya is what every pet owner wants there pet sitter to be. She is happy to go above and beyond for all of the animals she spends time with. You can tell when someone has a passion for something and when it’s just a job. And Leiya has a passion to be around animals. She watched both my golden doodles when I was away and would update me about when they were fed, walked, and even gave them a bath after a dirty day at the park. For me I feel comfortable letting Leiya spend time with any animals after the experience I had!”
13. Roberto P.
“Roberto is a wonderful pet caregiver. He has watched our dog Louie many times. He is very trustworthy, dependable, professional, and most of all loving to our little fur baby. You can always count on him to create a safe and fun environment when caring for your dog. I would highly recommend using Roberto as your next pet caregiver.”

15. Christina A.
“Christina did a great job caring for my two dogs while I was away for a week. One is senior and needed some extra care and the other had some anxiety issues. Christina went above and beyond in making them comfortable, and I felt better knowing that they were safe and well looked after. I would definitely hire her again.”
16. Katie B.
