“Briana and Jamal were absolutely wonderful with my senior dog. They were responsive, sent great updates, and were very timely with their visits. Will definitely be hitting them up for help with my girl again.”

“Misao took amazing care of our cat while we were out of town. She was very conscientious, gave us regular updates, brought in our mail and packages, and left the house cleaner than when we left. Not only was she incredibly sweet, she was timely, followed our detailed instructions perfectly and was overall a great pet sitter! Highly recommend and would hire again :)”

“Lydia watched both my cat and dog over a holiday weekend. Great communication, sent me pictures every day. Very thankful to have someone look after them while I was away. Highly recommend!”


“Erica took excellent care of our pets, and our house too. She really understood and respected our cat’s personality. Communication was great. We will definitely use her again!”

“Arianna did an amazing job with my two senior kitties! She gave them lots of attention and care, even earned the trust of my skittish girly. The updates and photos were above and beyond! I so appreciate the work she did!”


“Sierra is so great with our pets! She leaves us at ease and able to enjoy vacations while we’re away knowing they are taken care of. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Christina came to my rescue last minute in a tough situation and has become our weekly walker. I am so incredibly grateful for the consistent help, flexibility, and experience with reactive dogs. Highly recommend!!!”

“Quinn was such an amazing sitter for our boys! She was so sweet, communicative, and sent great updates each day with sweet pictures of our kitties to assure us that our cats were well cared for :) We would choose her again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend her enough!”

“Megan rocks ! She was super cool when she came over to check out the house and the animals. She sent me photos and updates, I will absolutely use her again!!! ✨”

“We use Holly’s services a bunch and can attest to how great she is with our little (big) pup and our home. Complete peace of mind every time she stops in to take care of Flicka. We cannot recommend her enough. Thanks Holly for being such a great dog sitter!”

“Alyssa was absolutely incredible! She set up a meet and greet the day prior to come over and get to know my dog Sailor, and to introduce herself to my family since im not at home to meet her in person. Everything went smoothly and we were officially booked for the next day! She arrived on time and spent every minute available playing fetch with my dog and took to giving her commands very easily. She was very enthusiastic during playtime which I know my dog loved! Planning to book again in the future no doubt about it”

“Christy was absolutely amazing! We have 5 pets with wildly different feeding needs due to age, diet, and preference. Christy went above and beyond-ensuring that each member of our family was pampered in the exact way they have become accustomed. If I’m being honest, I think one kitty was a little sad at our return. We will definitely be booking in the future!!”

“Did an awesome job taking care of our cat while we were out of town for two weeks. Great attention to detail and provided daily updates. Would definitely use Jordan again in the future.”

Dee Anne did a wonderful job watching our kitties, she sent photos everyday, played with them, and made sure they were well taken care of. We will definitely use her whenever we go out of town again, and we would highly recommend her to anyone who needs pet care while they are away.

My pets are my family and I'm super particular when it comes to them. I have a 9 month Mali puppy and so it's really important who comes around her at this age. As such, leaving them is hard for me because that's always on my mind. Long story short - If Kevin had more availability, I would be doing a lot more traveling lol. Punctual, knowledgable, kind, clean, thorough and goes above and beyond. We are so lucky we found him!

Alexis took amazing care of our dog and elderly cat while we were celebrating our wedding. We came back to a clean house and two fluffers who seemed like they barely noticed we were gone. She was even sweet enough to leave us a congratulations card :’) 10/10 recommend!

Haley is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever come across. I feel SO lucky to have found her for all of our future pet sitting needs! I booked her super last minute on a holiday weekend and she couldn’t have been more gracious and accommodating. My senior kitty requires medication and meal monitoring which she handled perfectly along with being super communicative with me on how he did the entire time I was away. She sent so many adorable pictures that showed clearly how quickly he fell in love with her. I had so much peace of mind while gone knowing that my baby was in the care of someone so caring and attentive. Thank you, Haley! 🩷
