1. Sarah P.


“Sarah proved immediately she was going to be reliable and an excellent communicator. Our pup hit it off immediately with her and upon returning home, we could tell she had been left in great hands. We appreciate Sarah and will absolutely book with her again!”


2. Mary N.

“Everything went great. What more can we ask? Our dogs are wonderful but each has his/her own personality and 3 dogs are a lot of work, but everything went as it should and that is fantastic for us. Thanks so much.”


3. Lori H.

“Lori was fantastic! We felt good leaving our 3 large dogs with her for a weekend in our home. She kept us updated and informed on their eating, potty, and medication schedule. We also came home to a clean house and the sheets where she slept were already washed. We absolutely recommend Lori!!”


4. Kaitlyn R.

“Kaitlyn was an absolute life saver, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our 3 Pomeranians! Kaitlyn was able to watch our dogs all day while we were off getting married, and she made sure everything was perfect with the dogs and our home so we could fully relax and enjoy our special day without having to worry about our fur-babies. We HIGHLY recommend Kaitlyn as she's punctual, attentive, and the dogs LOVE her, which is obviously a great sign! We wish we could give more than 5 stars to represent just how great Kaitlyn is/was! We can't thank Kaitlyn enough, and we can't wait to have her spend time with our dogs again soon!”


5. Keerie F.

6. Kayla S.

“Kayla was great she is very sweet and attentive with our Steeley we will definitely use her again she sent pictures and walked and played with our lab she is a very sweet young lady”


7. Konnie L.

“Konnie did an absolutely amazing job watching our dog and two cats while we were out of town!!! I got updates and photos while she was watching them and even put up with all my little requests. I think my house may have been more put together after she left than it was when she got there. We will 100% be using her again when we have to leave town. I cannot recommend her highly enough. THANK YOU KONNIE ?”


8. Mackenzie A.

“Mackenzie was an absolute star dogsitter! She sent multiple updates and photos every day so I never had to worry about a thing, and when one of my pups needed an urgent prescription picked up, she handled it quickly and without issue. You can tell she really cares about the animals, and she truly goes the extra mile in every sense. I would GLADLY have her watch my dogs again!”


9. William H.

“Alex (William) was fantastic! My dogs immediately took to Alex’s calm and friendly demeanor and seemed to really like him. I was gone for 10 days and Alex sent pictures every day - usually one of each dog, twice a day, and that was really comforting for me to see how well they were doing. Alex also left the house better than he found! Alex is simply the best! You can’t go wrong with him to care for your pets and home.”


10. Mayana P.
“Maya is so amazing with our 5 year old Olde English Bulldoggee! We are very picking when it comes to leaving our puppy for the day, overnight, or for a long vacation, but when Mayana is with her we have zero worries! She is punctual, trustworthy, and spends time playing with and snuggling our pups. I highly recommend Maya for any pet sitting needs!”


11. Dakota B.

“Dakota was great with my pup. Responsive, helpful, and caring!”


12. Scott & Samantha H.

“Scott and Samantha are our go to sitters for our Italian Greyhound, Quincy! We have used them multiple times, and always come home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Quincy has pretty bad separation anxiety, but Scott and Samantha give him extra attention, care, and snuggles. We highly recommend them to help with any of your pets’ needs!”


13. Lillian W.

“Lilly stayed with our 160 lb. pup for 3 nights and did a great job sticking to his routine which includes pills 2x a day, meals, walks, and giving specific treats at specific times. She sent photos of him every day, which helped put me at ease. I was thrilled to find Lilly as she has extensive vet experience, and our pup is prone to seizures. Fortunately, he had no episodes while we were away, so she did a great job keeping his anxiety levels down. I definitely recommend Lilly and will be contacting her again.”


14. Chloe A.
“Chloe is amazing at caring for herself and her pets, and is so gentle with other's pets. She is a pet lover through and through and spoils every pet she comes across with as much as she can. When she first met my cat, I warned her he didn't like strangers and would probably run away as soon as he sniffed her. Instead, he warmed right up to her. Chloe is also great at managing stressful situations and has been there for me countless times. She makes sure she has everything figured out and a solution for any situation that can go awry. She is a problem-solver, fierce, and full of love. I believe that she's great for taking care of your pets 100%!!”


15. Jess A.

“Jess is a wonderful sitter and does a great job caring for our dog, cat and bird while we're away, as well as looking after the house. Our fur babies are always so happy relaxed after she comes to stay!”




16. Abby K.


“Abby was able to fill in for us at the last second. She is kind, sweet and treats your home as it’s your own! Our dog Wrigley warmed up to her very quickly. Abby sent updates throughout the night as well! We highly recommend Abby for all of your needs!”


17. Rebecca R.

“Rebecca was wonderful with our Yorkie, Hoagie. She watched him in our home over the New Year holiday. We especially liked her detailed daily updates and photos. The messages reassured us that Hoagie was happy while we were away and confirmed that he was adjusting to Rebecca as a trusted caregiver.”


18. Meagan B.
“Meagan is the most amazing pet mom I’ve met. Her home is set up to the needs and comfort of her pets. Beds and toys just like you would your kids room. They have clothes and plenty of treats too. All of her babies are loved more than life itself.”


19. Nathan K.

“Nathan was great with Buster and was very respectful. We are very appreciative of him and will be using him again in the future when available. Thank you!”


20. Tyler F.

“Tyler stayed at our house with our two dogs. He was easy to communicate with about scheduling and always responded quickly about how things were going while we were away.”
