1. Gigi C.


“Gigi is fantastic. When I came home both of my dogs were relaxed and happy. She fed them and gave them their meds on their complicated schedule just fine. She is also very flexible and a great communicator. I've already booked her for three more trips!”


2. Laura H.

“Laura does a great job taking care of our 4 pups. Good at communicating and doing whatever is needed for them. We have used her several times and really appreciate the care she provides”


3. Kayla K.

“We had Kayla take care of our dog while we were away for the weekend, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Kayla not only loves dogs, but she was also responsible and trustworthy throughout her stay at our house. She provided us with regular updates and pictures, which really put our minds at ease. Kayla was quick to respond to any messages or inquiries we had, and it was clear that she really cared for our dog. Our dog really liked her too, which was evident from the way he interacted with her. Overall, we would highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our”

“Haley was absolutely amazing! She was willing to take a very last minute booking, and gave the best care to my kitten :) she was so attentive and responsive, and we can’t wait to have her back!!🥰”


5. Tré B.

“Best sitter I’ve ever had or seen. He took care of my family like they were his own. He walked them ,snuggled them and gave my littlest one his medicine which can be a chore. He kept me updated every day and the pictures showed how happy they are. Tre is truly a kind soul. From the first initial meeting my pups just felt like he was the best. So I instantly knew he is defiantly the best! He even stayed an extra day. I felt so great knowing they were so cared for. Made my vacation even better. Thanks again!!”


6. Alan G.

“Alan is the best! He communicates often and sends lots of pictures. I love how reliable he is and how great he gets along with my pet. Thanks, Alan!”


7. Steph H.


“It can be unnerving having someone you just met come stay at your home, but Steph made me feel very comfortable! I enjoyed how many photos she sent daily. She knows how to take care of cats with different issues and was even willing to give my cat medication when she had an allergic reaction a couple days before I left. She was patient and kind with my cats who can sometimes be timid with strangers, and was able to get them to open up and play. Steph did a wonderful job taking care of my babies and made me feel like I could enjoy my trip better knowing my cats were ok.”


8. Cindy H.

“I was so relieved to have Cindy watching our 2 dogs and 2 cats. I am definitely a helicopter mom but Cindy is so knowledgeable and well versed in dog and cat behavior that I was put at ease immediately during our meet and greet. She was quick and professional when communicating and sent some really great photos to me while I was away. She even sent a video of my dogs happily playing which they don’t normally do when they have a sitter! They loved her as much as I did. 10/10 I would book her again! Thank you, Cindy!”


9. Kaleigh L.

“Gosh, where do I start? Let me start off by saying Kaleigh was such amazing. We left for a 4 day trip and she house sat for us with our two doggies. She was always available when we reached out. She took such great care of our fur babies. When we got home she went as far as to throwing the trash and washing the bed sheets we provided for her. We was absolutely amazing! We typically never have a chance to travel because we are so picky with who watches the house or the doggies. She is definitely our girl🤍 10/10 highly recommend and will book with her for future trips!”


10. Abby S.

“Abby was incredible! So many thanks to her services for our old dog, 100% would recommend!”


11. Nancy L.


“Nancy was an absolute dream. She house sat and cared for our two cats for us for a week. We were traveling for my father's funeral, but during this stressful time we didn't have to worry at all about our fur babies as they were in amazing hands! We got daily photos and updates, and Nancy went above and beyond by washing our sheets, doing the dishes, and even vacuuming! She also left us a sweet and unexpected gift for our garden. I cannot recommend her enough!!”


12. Michael M.

“Michael did an incredible job taking care of my babies. I was initially worried about leaving my dogs, especially since one of them is in a wheelchair, but Michael treated her like his own. His communication was excellent, keeping us updated regularly, which gave us peace of mind during our trip. The house was spotless when we returned—Michael left it even better than we had left it. I don't think I could trust anyone else with my dogs and cat after this experience. He has truly raised our standards for pet care.”


13. Eli O.

“Eli was great with my puppy and cat! They looked very happy, well fed and cared for when I got home. Will happily book Eli again. ☺️”


14. Brianna W.

“This was the first time I left my dog for an extended stay with someone who was not friends/family. I felt very safe with the house sit/dog sit arrangement and that allowed me to relax and enjoy my trip. I appreciated how communicative she is - sent photos of their jaunts to the dog park and let me know that he got into a tussle with a cat. Highly recommend her!”


15. Cassandra B.

“Cassie was excellent, she was punctual and was excellent with our 2 dogs. She left the house in great condition. Our pups can’t wait to see her again!”


16. Desiree O.

“Desiree was awesome. She kept in touch and left the house tidy. My dog who is usually very anxious when I leave seemed to be super comfortable with Desiree which was a huge relief for me while I was gone.”


17. Mariana K.

“Mariana did an amazing job taking care of our Yoda and making sure he was safe and happy while we were traveling. This was our first time traveling without him and she did a great job keeping us informed of his daily activities which have us peace of mind. We will definitely utilize her again!”


18. Tabbitha M.

“Tabbs was an awesome sitter for both our dogs, Giles and Charlie, while we were in Sedona for our wedding. She sent regular updates throughout the day, was very responsive to texts, and made sure we were always in the loop. She also went out of her way to take care of some other critters around the house (such as feeding the fish) when she didn’t have to. We’ll definitely be using her again the next time we’re in AZ! Thanks Tabbs!”


19. Bryce K.

“Bryce is an incredible sitter! He spent a week with my little Loretta giving her lots of love, walks and fetch playing! He kept me updated on how the days were going, provided pictures and put me at ease. I’ll definitely book Bryce again if he’s available!!”


20. Alyson D.
“Alyson has taken wonderful care of my two senior cats on many occasions. My kitties are 17-year-old sisters and, at their age, it's important to me that they're with someone who would recognize the first sign of any health issue. Luckily they are still healthy, but I trust Alyson to handle any concern that might come up. My kitties are also affectionate, and Alyson gives them plenty of cuddles and attention. I know they're relaxed, comfortable, and happy when she's with them, and she always sends me plenty of photos to reassure me that they're doing just fine when I can't be with them.”
