We have used Emely multiple times now and she has been wonderful to work with. We get daily photos and updates of our boys and she stays in great communication. I think we’ve found our one sitter!

Hope was super kind and thoughtful, and it was obvious that she really cared about my pups. She identified and catered to both of their individual needs, and kept me in the loop. She was also super flexible and helpful- I’m very grateful I found Hope!

Heather was GREAT with my animals. She loved them and spent time with them as I would have and really gave me no worries while I was gone. She went above and beyond what I needed and would definitely book again for any future trips:)

Deborah was an amazing dog sitter for my two Aussies. She sent text updates and pictures every day and let me know they were doing well. Very much appreciate her care of both and will absolutely recommend her to anyone. Deborah also went above and beyond to leave the house clean, washing towels and sheets, from the week long stay. Thank you!!!

It was our first time using Zack and we’re a fan! We have a very exuberant pitty who is a challenge to manage due to her strength and love for everything except the word ‘no.’ Our ‘kids’ loved him and one can tell he has a special place in his heart for animals the minute you meet him. Zack is conscientious and thorough, communicates clearly and leaves the house tidy. What’s not to love?! We will definitely book again in the future. Thank you, Zack! ?

It was a delight having John watch our dogs. He communicated very well and was great about sending photos. I felt extremely comfortable having him in our home and protecting our most precious assets. My mind was peaceful and at ease on vacation knowing he was with him. We will definitely be reaching out to John in the future!

Persephone was kind and comforting to my geriatric pup who was having a hard day. I was so grateful for the way she helped him when I wasn’t able to. She is responsive and thoughtful- definitely a great and reliable person!

Andrea is absolutely wonderful! She watched our pup for a full week and we felt so assured our pup was taken great care of throughout. She sent daily updates and pictures, was thorough to ask clarifying questions and clearly spoiled him with love. She stayed in our home during the sitting and took exceptional care of our home as well. We are very glad to have her as a sitter and will continue booking her services anytime we need in the future.

Katherine did an awesome job taking care of our house and dog during a snowpocalypse with a power outage. When we got back the dog was happy and the house was clean. We look forward to having her watch our dog and house again.

Scott did a fantastic job taking care of our four legged furry children! He was very attentive to their needs and asked questions to make his stay with them just like us still being home! It's a difficult decision to leave your home to somebody and the care of your family pets but Scott kept us posted on his stay and sent pictures of our pets laid back and relaxed! He even taught our one pet to "Drop it. Very appreciative of that. I would highly recommend Scott to take care of your family pets and their needs.
