Kelly was super attentive to our two cats and sent us updates while we were away. Our cats loved their time with her and we'll definitely ask her to sit again in the future!

Mackenzie took great care of our three girls while house and dog sitting when we took a long weekend out of town. All instructions were followed to a "T" and she left our home just as she found it. Great communications before and during the stay, and good pics sent so we knew our babies were happy and healthy. Thanks for taking care of our girls!

Katelyn watched my dog for a week. I'm always worried about who I leave my dog with but I felt very secure with Katelyn. She followed my instructions, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and left the house as I left it. I will definitely keep her in mind for my future trips. Thanks for watching Elena :)

Ruth and Bella stayed in our home for the long weekend and they kept our dog company! Loved the communication, pictures and videos throughout the weekend. I was a little nervous having a new person watch her for about 4 days but I know our dog had a great time. Fast friends with Ruth and Bella! Would absolutely book again!!

Emmalee was great! Our dog is very skittish and has separation anxiety, and Emmalee went out of her way to make sure she felt safe and to coax her to eat. She also took good care of her when Freya got scared in the thunderstorm. Highly recommend Emmalee!! She also took good care of the house and even stripped the bedding and loaded the washer before we got back!

Sophia was a great dog sitter!! She took such good care of our pup, Ellie. We loved the routine check ins and pictures letting us know they were having a blast while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust with our pup!

Kyle was great! He stayed in my apartment with Morty while I was in Texas. When I returned Morty was healthy and happy and my apartment was just as I left it. Kyle was quick to respond to messages and provided updates on how Morty was doing.

I appreciate that when Aubrey came to meet me and my dog in advance she took notes and asked a lot of questions. My dog was obviously well taken care of from the photos, video, and updates I received. Also, I am completely blown away that upon returning my home is cleaner than I left it. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Aubrey again to care for my energetic, reactive (yet perfect?‍♀️) dog.

Jerica was great with my dog Sadie. Sadie has a little separation anxiety when I’m away and it’s worse when I leave her in a new place and therefore I chose to find someone to come stay with Sadie in our home. Jerica was great with Sadie and even let Sadie sleep and cuddle with her which I know Sadie enjoyed being a big baby. She took her for walks and my house was just like I left it. Thank you for everything, Jerica! I will definitely book with you again.
