Summar was great with my foster dog with separation distress on a day I needed to go to the office. She conducted a meeting the day before to meet the dog and go over the routine and any other things she should know. The day of the pet sitting, everything went smoothly. She followed the routine and sent updates with great pictures. I highly recommend Summar because she is passionate about pets, is customer oriented, and I could tell that my foster dog had made a new friend!

Mark was very attentive and caring towards my two dogs during a weekend trip. He easily managed their routine and won the heart of my very anxious chihuahua. Highly recommend!

Carol took extra special care of my pup who is a few weeks post surgery. She made me felt at ease being far away from my pup. So grateful for her knowledge of how to attend to her needs, give meds and walk in short increments. Would highly recommend Carol to all friends and family.

Carolina was just awesome! She was caring and kind to all the pups. She took extra care for the smallest pup who is very sensitive. She is responsible, responsive, very reliable and great communication skills. The pups were very comfortable with her right away as they can sense a warm caring animal lover. I felt super comfortable with her taking excellent care and being present for them. She stayed with them and I super appreciate all her time and effort to make everyone comfortable and cozy. Great Big Thank You Carolina!

Renee was wonderful with my pup and cat. She adapted without a problem when Truffle got an injury right before we left and suddenly had to take medications that he usually doesn’t have to use. Renee was able to get him to take the meds without a problem and keep him comfortable. It was obvious that our pets were well taken care of and Renee stayed well beyond the scheduled time to be present when we arrived.

Zoe was absolutely wonderful! Immediately when our pups did a meet and greet with her, they felt comfortable and at ease with her. Both of our pups can be a bit nervous around new people so this was impressive! She communicated and sent photos often during the trip and it was clear our pups were enjoying their time with her. The house was left clean and she even brought our packages inside for us. We look forward to booking with Zoe again!

Seth stayed at our house with our dog for over a week and was wonderful. He played with our dog outside each day and loved him up. He was respectful, courteous and reliable. Our house was clean when we returned and our dog was well cared for the entire time. We would hire Seth again in an instant. I highly recommend Seth for pet care.

Karly has watched our dog, Ham, multiple times now, and we always know we can count on her to take care of Ham! She is very prompt, kind, and listens to, understands, and fulfills all of our dog’s needs. Karly also has great communication and gives updates (and sends really cute photos) throughout the sit! She is also a considerate house guest and is really respectful of our space when she is there alone. We highly recommend her to everyone! I can tell Ham really loves her too.
