“We had last minute plans and Katie came to our rescue! One of our dogs just had a minor surgery and one was full of energy - and both were well taken care of during our day trip. Thank you!!”

“Kaitlyn was great with the dogs right from the meet and greet. She handled their different personalities and medical needs perfectly. She did all that was asked and more. Thank you for allowing me the peace of mind to enjoy this week with friends!!”

“Louisa was kind, responsive and took extra care to come to our hotel to watch our dog on our wedding day. We could not recommend her more highly 💜”

“Kaitlyn was an absolute sweetheart and such a great communicator! Prior to our first booking, she asked thoughtful questions about what she could do to prepare and be well-informed, which I appreciated. She sent me photos and updates while caring for Princeton and also gave me a great recap after I got home. I highly recommend Kaitlyn and will definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life but have professionally done in the past 6 years! I love spending time around animals and I also stay hyper vigilant if there’s any issues going on! I am currently work remotely, so I'm looking for a way to get outside and make a new community of friends, and get some walk and play time in with a furry friend! Always more than happy to make time for your pet! I have a cat named Theo and he gets fed on a schedule three times a day, which seems to the perfect mix. I like to keep pets on a schedule and active so that they’re getting all the enrichment and care that they need! If there’s not a fenced in yard, I’m happy to go for a walk!
“Sydney did a fantastic job being with our dog, Della. She shared comments with us while we were gone. This made us feel confident that the care she provided was important to her. We would definitely ask Sydney to care for our dog again! Thank you.”

“This was Sabrina’s second time sitting for my cats, and they were just as happy and comfortable with her as the first time. She’s reliable, caring, and clearly has a way with animals. I’ll definitely keep her as my go-to sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Maureen was wonderful! She accommodated my last-minute request and took great care of my dogs. Excellent communication, lots of great pics - I knew my boys were in great hands. Thank you, Maureen!”

“Smooth meet-up & sitting experience, and great level of communication! She was reliable and trustworthy in taking care of our pups and the house. Would definitely work with you again and looking forward to it!”
“Robert was a great sitter, to the point where I immediately booked him for another day when I need to be out of town. He doted on my dog, played with her, and made sure to keep me updated day-to-day. I felt very confident leaving Gemma with him.”

“Annie took great care of our dog and guinea pig! She gave me frequent updates and was very attentive to our anxious dog’s needs. Thank you!!!”

“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Drew. He took great care of my pups while I was away, and treated them like family. He also stayed with them until midnight, after my flight home was significantly delayed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely rebook with him.”

“Corinne is amazing!! She watched over our two "boys" (greyhounds) and took such thoughtful care of them! We got lots of pictures and updates while we were away and the peace of mind that offers to know that your loved ones are cared for while you are away is truly priceless! Not to mention that she is very respectful of our home and had everything cleaned and tidied as if we were never gone! Gosh, thanks so much!!!”

“Chris was incredibly professional, attentive and caring. From our first communication via text, to updates while he cared for our two Great Danes—I always felt comfortable that he knew what he was doing and genuinely cared for our dogs. I would highly recommend him to care for anyone’s pets in the future!”
