“Good afternoon Rover Friends, it is my pleasure to provide a very positive review for Adelaide who house sat this last weekend for Chidi and Ellie, two young labradors. Adelaide put in the time up front to come by and meet the dogs, get acquainted with the program, took the dogs for a walk, and generally was up to speed when house sitting started. Attentive, regular check ins, updates, and good dog watching and walking skills. House was left in good shape and the puppies are happy. All good and much appreciated! John-”


“Wendy was amazing! She took excellent care of Nook and left our home spotless. She was incredibly communicative, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without any stress. It was clear the moment we got back that Nook was happy, relaxed, and had been well cared for. We highly recommend Wendy for anyone in need of a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”



“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Bryan! He saved us super last-minute and was the perfect person to watch our two dogs. He communicated with us throughout the entire booking, which made the trip stress-free for us. Our two dogs are very high-energy, so we were worried that a sitter may be overwhelmed, but Bryan made sure they were occupied and engaged the entire stay. They all seemed to get along and really enjoy each other’s company. Bryan left our house in immaculate shape. And I mean immaculate! Our house was cleaner than what we had left it for him! If you are considering Bryan to watch your doggies/pets, don’t hesitate to reach out. He exceeded our expectations and we look forward to having him watch ours dogs again in the future. Thanks again Bryan, Jim, Claire, Otto, and Harper”
