2. Marlowe M.
“Marlowe was great with our dog Boone and our cat Luna! We searched a long time to find the right overnight sitter for our 10 year old lab because we had not left him with anyone before. Marlowe is the perfect sitter for him! We came home to a very happy pup! Her attention to detail and level of care matched ours and we couldn't be happier to find a repeat sitter!”

“carly did a wonderful job taking care of my two pups and my older kitty. my pups are high energy and high velcro so they need to walk about 6 miles a day and a lot of cuddle time, she was more than happy to take care of their needs. carly sent a lot of pictures which i really appreciate and was on time for all of the check-ins we discussed. i’m a helicopter mom so i always like more messages and updates but she did a great job, i look forward to booking with carly again!”

10. Hope F.
“Hope was incredible with our two dogs during our family Va vacation. One of our dogs even had issues with separation anxiety, and Hope did awesome caring for our boy and easing my worries while we were away. She was also a great houseguest as we could barely tell anyone was staying at the house. She was so clean, and considerate- took out her trash and kept the house so clean. We’re so grateful for Hope, and impressed by her. She genuinely loves animals and it shows in how she takes care of them! Such a wonderful person and doggie nanny! 💕”
11. Lindsay C.
“Lindsay was awesome! I had recently moved and had to leave the cats alone for the first time since the move. She went above and beyond taking care of them and keeping me updated. Thank you!”
12. Lynne F.
“Lynne was a great house sitter and did an excellent job taking care of our fur baby. She shared photos every day and even left a sweet message to welcome us home. It was comforting knowing our geriatric lab had company, especially in the evening, while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Lynne and look forward to rebooking with her in the future!”
13. Steven K.
“Steven did a great job keeping us informed and keeping our pups happy. He did a final energy burn in the backyard before leaving to help them stay calm until we returned. We will definitely be working with him in the future!”
14. jordan g.
“Jordan was great! She communicated well. She was responsible and best of all my Bear loves her! He’s picky with people so the fact that he loves her speaks volumes! I would hire her again without hesitation.”
15. Jp B.
“JP was amazing. She took great care of our little dog. She communicated with us throughout our time away sending pictures of our dog. Abbey, our little chihuahua, actually seemed to miss her when we were back home. That says a lot! We would not hesitate to recommend Jp, and will book her again in the future.”
16. Victor S.
“Victor did great sitting for Ellie, kept her company all day, listened to her needs, gave her food and her medicine. Would absolutely book him again in the future!”
17. Kim S.
“Kim agreed to take on a very challenging task - caring for a beagle who is not only terrified of people but also has epilepsy. During her first visit he had a seizure and I could not have more pleased with how she handled it. There are some people you meet and immediately know that your pets will be well cared for - Kim is that person!”
18. Rebecca M.
“Rebecca is one of the most trustworthy and kind people I know. She is caring and giving in almost all aspects of her life. She is both a nurturer and an educator so patience is not just a virtue. Knowing how she is with people I know she will be wonderful with someone else’s fur baby. She has watched my little Rocco a few times now and I’m grateful that she was available, he loves her.”
19. Bailey H.
“Wonderful experience for Forrest and Rainbow! The care, love and attention that Bailey gave was perfect for our companion buddies. Will definitely use again when need arises!”
20. Laura A.
