“Allison did a great job. Let me know how things were going and sent pictures. Keelo seemed calm and relaxed when we got home which is a biggie for her as she gets a bit stressed when we are gone. Will definitely be using her again.”

“Lauren is incredible! She took great care of my baby. This is my very first time having someone taking care of Bruno at home. She made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. She did an amazing job and I will definitely use her again to care for him.”

“Such a relief to find a gem like Diane, who was so patient and kind to our high anxiety pittie. So much so, baby was ready to leave with her too LOL. We got cute pics and fast responses on everything. Definitely depending on her in the future!”
“When we travel, we always call Sarah H. She does a wonderful job caring for our family pet. She provides wonderful warmth and comfort to our little boy who looks forward to his playtime which lowers his stress while we are gone. Sarah makes me feel at ease knowing someone was there to give him love and attention. Thank you, Sarah H.”

“Angelina was a wonderful house guest and amazing dog sitter. We have a large shepherd/mal and she did a great job caring for him. He was super happy when we returned home. We will definitely use Angelina anytime we go away!”

“This is my second time booking Brandon. I couldn’t be happier finding someone who is amazing and reliable with our dogs. Pepper our small dog is like a cat, doesn’t get too excited with new people and will chose who she will allow to pet her. When Brandon and his family came over, Pepper was excited to see them when they walked in. At that moment I realized I found a great pet sitter for our dogs. Thank you Brandon.”

“Breayn was so much help! I needed a last minute sitter and she was the only one that responded and could watch my baby. She sent pictures and kept me updated the entire time as well which I really appreciated.”

“Andrea was incredible! She took such wonderful care of Griff, treating him like he was her own. She made sure he got his daily walks, proper nutrition, and plenty of snuggles. She also left our home spotless and was an excellent communicator throughout. We had complete peace of mind knowing Griff was in such caring hands. We will absolutely be using Andrea again and couldn’t recommend her more highly! 🐾🤍”

“Elsie was fantastic and my fur babies loved having her taking care of them. She sent plenty of pictures and updates and I was completely at ease while I was away traveling. I’d highly recommend her to anyone that is needing any type of pet sitting services and I’ll definitely use her services again.”

“I couldn't be happier with the care Brendalee gave tp my 3 French bulldogs. They are very quirky and they can be a bit tough to manage. She was able to administer medicine to my elder statesman with epilepsy. She sent a lot of photos and updates along the way. She left my house spotless and stripped bed, emptied trash and put towels in wash room. She was available to come get the key, meet the pups on her own time etc. Highly recommend and will be booking again.”
“Red has a warm, relaxed vibe and both my dog and cat were immediately comfortable with him. During a 3 night, 3 day weekend trip, he took great care of both my babies and my home. He adheres to clear direction, and even found new ways to entertain my often high energy pooch. I plan to utilize his service again. Thanks Red!”

“Sierra was house sitting our Belgian malinois Ayva. She said right the way that she doesn't have an experience with this type of breed yet. We explained all the details and directions to take while she was here with our dog. It was easy stay with no issues. She sent pictures to us daily to make sure that we know our dog is fine. House was clean as well, which was very important.”

“Andwele has watched our home and 3 pets many times over the last year and we are so happy we found him. He’s great with the furbabies. Keeps us up to date and in touch while we are gone.”

“We used Sam for the first time while we were out of the country, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took amazing care of our 2 dogs—including our new puppy—and went above and beyond. We received lots of photo updates and messages throughout our trip, which I really appreciate because these are our babies. She was respectful of our home, even offered to water our plants, and we came back to everything spotless. As a sweet surprise, she even left a parting gift with treats and toys for the dogs! It’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. I would not hesitate to book Sam again—highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and caring sitter. 🐾💛”

“We have used Maria’s services several times and she’s always very reliable, very communicative and I never worry about my dog when Maria is caring for her. This time, our dog had a health issue and was not feeling well and had a complicated medication schedule. Maria was very understanding and took very good care of our pup!”

“It’s been a long time since my girlfriend and I have been able to go on vacation due to difficulty trusting anyone with our three dogs - then we met Torri. From the get go, Torri was responsive, professional, and accommodating. He immediately scheduled a meet and greet and took the time to get to know us and our dogs. Torri house sits with his own dog Riley, which helped diffuse our sudden departure and gave my dogs their own buddy to focus on, instead of us being away. Riley is very well behaved and trained, and together they brought a great energy to our home and all of our dogs immediately took a liking to him, something unexpected since a few of them are selective. During our time away, Torri communicated frequently and sent updates. It truly made it easy to unplug. We are so grateful to have found him and are looking forward to planing our next trip.”

“Alaina was beyond great to Luna! She sent me constant updates and pictures to let me know Luna was doing well and was a happy girl! Alaina came through on short notice and was even willing to help when we dealt with flight issues. I would 100% have her watch Luna again and Luna agrees!”

“Can’t say enough good things about her. She took such good care of my baby and my apartment. She was responsive, kind, sent me updates, brought treats for my dog, brought her on a hike, left the apartment spotless. She was wonderful, I will definitely ask her for watches in the future. 💕”

Wow; Tony was the best. We are so grateful to have found him. He went above and beyond for our dog. He walked him, played with him and let him sleep on his bed. We have a large GSD and were a bit nervous about leaving him with someone. Tony was able to handle our dog without any issues and seemed to be very comfortable with him. When you have a large dog, that’s always the fear. He sent many pictures and videos showing our dog having his own vacation. We would all give him 2 paws up.

This is my second time using Allison. Her communication is great and she always seems to send the best photo updates. All my babies always look so happy & content, which definitely helps ease my mind while I’m away. I would highly recommend Allison & will definitely be booking with her again in the future.

Meghan was the best! Not only did she take great care of my pup, but she left my house in perfect condition. She sent frequent photos a happy dog, and kept me up to date. She even dealt with some "accidents" in the living room, which she cleaned thoroughly. I'll never hire anyone else!
I truly cannot say enough good things about Torri. He cared for my three dogs and my home for nearly a month and a half while I was away, and he went so far above and beyond anything I would ever expect from a dog sitter. From day one, Torri’s dog Riley fit right in and became part of the pack. My dogs absolutely loved both of them. One of my dogs is an Airedale with a LOT of energy who goes to daycare regularly, and Torri took her every morning and picked her up every afternoon. He also made sure the dogs got walks, trips to the dog park, plenty of attention, and were genuinely happy and well cared for the entire time I was gone. What really sets Torri apart, though, is that he truly takes care of your home as if it were his own. While I was away, he noticed something wasn’t right with my HVAC system, immediately let me know, and then coordinated with the repair technician to come out and get it fixed. Coming home after nearly two months away to a cool house and a tuned-up HVAC system was honestly one of the best surprises I could have asked for. He also handled grooming appointments for the dogs, including contacting my veterinarian ahead of time to obtain their vaccination records and making sure the groomer had everything they needed before the appointment. And then there was the house itself. I came home to an absolutely SPOTLESS home. Torri cleaned throughout the house, washed all of my linens, watered my plants, took out the trash, kept the turf completely poop-free, regularly hosed it down and treated it with enzyme spray, and stayed on top of the dog hair. He even purchased a new vacuum on my behalf because the one I had simply wasn’t efficient enough for a house with multiple dogs! He organized my mail, rearranged a few things in my office to make the space more functional, and decluttered and organized some things in the kitchen. Most importantly, he communicated with me about everything and always asked permission before making any changes. His description of his service as “Home & Dog Concierge” is absolutely accurate. I didn’t just come home to three clean, happy dogs who had clearly been loved and cared for — I came home to a spotless, organized house, watered plants, clean linens, a functioning HVAC system, and everything taken care of. After being away for nearly a month and a half, coming home and having virtually nothing to deal with was PRICELESS. I have used dog sitters before, and I have never experienced this level of care, communication, attention to detail, or initiative. Torri didn’t simply watch my dogs and my house. He made my life easier while I was gone and made coming home after a long and difficult time away genuinely relaxing. The dogs absolutely adored Torri and Riley, and so did I. I would trust him with my dogs and my home again without hesitation. Five stars doesn’t even come close. 10 out of 5 stars. I was completely blown away.
I am inclined to give a 1 star rating because I don't want her to get booked up and not be available. Andrea has been so awesome for me and Kenny. I kid her that Kenny likes her more but not sure I am not right about that. Kenny is a rescue and very quirky and frightens easily but warmed to Andrea quickly and they have become buddies for sure. More importantly that the pet care is she is responsible and a really good person.
Jupiter took amazing care of Sherlock while we were away! She kept us updated with photos and videos. That gave us so much peace of mind. She is also very knowledgeable about puppies and dogs, and even spent time training Sherlock. As new dog parents, we really appreciated all the helpful tips and advice she shared with us. Sherlock was safe, happy, well cared for, and learned some new skills. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and caring pet sitter. Will definitely book with her again! Thank you, Jupiter! ❤️

Gabriella and her husband were absolutely amazing! They watched our dog, Lily, and our cat, Garfield, while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. They are truly a power couple! They followed every instruction to a T, gave our pets so much love and attention, and kept us completely at ease with daily pictures and updates. It was clear that Lily and Garfield were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. To top it all off, we came home to a spotless house, with the sheets and towels washed and everything looking wonderful. It’s such a great feeling to return from a trip and know your home and pets were cared for as if they were their own. We highly recommend Gabriella and her husband to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and caring pet sitters. We already have them booked for another weekend!
