Gretchen was wonderful in every way! She communicated with us throughout the stay, left our house perfectly clean, but most of all we know she cared for our dog so well! This was our first stay with Gretchen and we’d have her back every time we need help. Cannot recommend her enough!

We enjoyed having Betsy to stay and take care of our three pups (who are a handful and have a high-maintenance diet!) She gave us lots of updates and was very communicative.

Launa took care of our pets while we were out of town and it went great! She got along with them great and sent pictures at least once per day at our request. Our dogs and cat all seemed very relaxed and happy when we got back, which is a good sign that they had a good time! We will definitely be contacting Launa for pet care services again.

Katrina took great care of our dogs and was great to work with! She is flexible, kind, and kept in contact with us the whole time she was with our dogs. When we came home they were happy to see us, but calm and tired after a good day with Katrina.

We know that when Jessica watches our dog that we’ll come home to a happy, worn out pup! She sends lots of pictures and updates and makes going out of town stress free. She has gone above and beyond at times when we had unexpected situations pop up when out of town. I would recommend Jessica to any of my family or friends.

We are so happy with the care Claire provided our cat. She stayed in our home for a week with our cat and kept us updated daily with pictures. We could see how content she was with Claire. It is so hard to leave your fur babies when traveling and Claire was a blessing. Not only was our cat happy, our home was also cared for. Claire kept it tidy and clean. We highly recommend Claire. We will definitely call on her for future pet sitting!

We have a householdof pets, which includes 2 big labs and 2 cats. They are a demanding bunch, especially at meal tmes early morning 6:30 AM an 5:00 PM sharp for dinner. When we need to get away for a weekend or extende period of time we have counted on Sally to take care our Pets. She gives them lots of attention, including trips to the dog park for the 2 labs. I would recomend Sally for pet sitting duties, she is dependable and we know our pets are in good hands when she is taking care of them.

Words cannot describe the impact Margaret has made in our life by how she cared for our elderly chihuahuas. We had recently moved to Minneapolis so finding trusting dog care in a new place is stressful, especially when your pups are older. It was a blessing Margaret managed our apartment property where we witnessed her passion for dogs. She would give Rocky and Pearl so much love and attention every day they passed her in the lobby. One day in passing she graciously offered to watch them if we ever needed someone and it didn't take long for us to take her up on the offer. She would go above and beyond if we needed them picked-up, dropped-off, drop-in... you name it. She didn't even complain when they grew older and were prone to accidents. Our dogs loved Margaret and loved when she cared for them. We have since lost our pups, but we will never forget how Margaret treated them. We cherish the pictures she took with them and still share them with each other even today.

Ryan was a fantastic dog and house sitter! We felt really confident that he understood the needs of our dogs and that he could ease himself into their lives at home. We got some cute pics and updates through the week and could tell our dogs were just fine without us! We would 100% hire him again if he’s available next time we need to leave our pups!

Sarah was great!!! She cared for my cat over the weekend— did a good job of checking in, was respectful of the food/medication schedule that my cat is on, easy to communicate with, and I came home to a happy and well cared for animal! Hope to have her help again in the future!

Derek was amazing! He clearly loves pets and cares about taking care of them for you. Great communication throughout the whole reservation, lots of reassurance to me, the nervous Pet Mom, and even pictures to boot! Hope I get to use Derek again!

Leah was awesome - took wonderful care of our kitty and our home while we were away for five days over Christmas. Kept in touch by sending us updates and photos so we knew everything was fine. Kitty had just had dental surgery, was on a special diet and can be anxious and lonely without her humans around. She's also shy around people she doesn't know. But she really took to Leah and they got along great. I'm definitely going to have Leah back the next time we are out of town and would highly recommend her for cat sitting.
