I was nervous about leaving my baby with anyone, but after our meet and greet I was very comfortable leaving Bella with Lori. Bella immediately connected with Lori. I will definitely have her stay with Bella again.

Abby was very good with my anxious dog. She got her to warm up quickly and was with her while a lot of fireworks were going off and kept her happy. I would happily hire her again!

Jessica was an amazing house sitter. The boys got spoiled with her and she was so loving to them. Hey miss her already. She was very prompt with communication. We plan on using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica!!

Alisa was great. She was very helpful and responsive in all communication. She seemed to figure out our dog’s little quirks naturally. We loved the pictures and updates she sent. We came home to a happy dog and a well kept house.

Sarah had really proven herself to be incredibly helpful and flexible with staying over with my fur babies. I came home from being gone for almost a week, and she came by the house to grab something, my dog was more excited to see her than she was to see me after being gone for so long! ? Sarah is a great sitter, I highly recommend her to stay with your fur babies!! ?

Sidney was a fantastic fit for my 2 dogs. One is usually a ball of anxiety when meeting new people but he was immediately friendly with Sidney! We will definitely be booking with Sidney again!

We hired Jessica for the first time to pet/house sit our 11 year old golden retriever. She was excellent! She came over prior to meet us and our dog. She communicates well, giving us updates 2-3 times/day; she sent lots of adorable pictures as well! She washed her sheets/towels (without being instructed to) and left the house neat and tidy. Our dog seemed happy when we returned. We would definitely recommend her and will hire her in the future.

Tierney was the perfect companion to our anxious couch potato. She even sent updates throughout the night, which was nice as this was our first time leaving our pup for the night.

Amethyst house sat for our two, including our livestock guardian breed dog, who is very slow to trust people. By the end of the week he was leaning up against her and asking to be pet. She sent lots of photos and kept us informed of her comings and goings. I would gladly recommend her, particularly to those with dogs who aren't friendly to strangers. Our Kuvasz, (like a Great Pyrenees), did great with her as she patiently met with him before our trip and managed him while we were gone.

Alexis gave consistent updates for how Pinot was doing, and was always quick to respond. When we returned, Pinot was happy and healthy, and the house was just as we left it. We'd definitely use Alexis again and would recommend her services to other interested parties!

Natasha did a great job! It was our first time having someone else watch our dog and cats for more than a day and we would use her again. Our dog is fearful of almost anyone outside our home and not always cooperative when he needs to go outside. She did a great job helping him to get outside when he needed and was very patient with his quirks.
