And Hana's home environment seems like doggy paradise. She provided me pics throughout the day, and her communication was excellent. I would be glad to use Hana's services again.”

“Beasley loves staying with Michelle and her husband. He is always so relaxed when we pick him up. I can tell he is well loved in their care. Michelle follows all of our instructions and sends daily updates. Highly recommend”

“Madison took the most wonderful care of our girls during the busy holiday season while we were traveling internationally to visit grandparents! She sent us updates and pictures and even sent a sweet NYE picture of them to me. My anxious girls were able to play and feel right at home, and I’m so thankful they were in loving hands. G & Stormy will choose Madison’s every time 💜”
“I will definitely be returning when onderful, caring and understanding. Josh was very welcoming of P-Nut and I. Josh helped me with P-Nut's bag and crate - and also allowed me to come by earlier, at 4 am in the morning! Josh showed P-Nut immense compassion and love.”
“Michell w was absolutely incredible and made Boogie feel right at home. I received a lot of cool video updates of my little guy and Michelle was juts excellent& super flexible. I will absolutely be booking with Michelle again and you should too!”

“We’ve been frequent flyers with Todd and Bill now for over a year. They have always been so welcoming of our little puppers and so loving with them. It’s scary leaving a furry friend behind so finding the right person to care for them like you would yourself is important. I love how happy my pups are when they come back from a pawcation😄they are so happy Zane tired. A tired dog.. is a happy dog.. very glad I found them!”
“Marwa was great with our rescue corgi. We were apprehensive about leaving our dog with a sitter so soon after adopting her, but as soon as we met Marwa our anxieties were eased. She was great about providing us photos, videos, and updates about our sweet girl. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Whitney is the best! Bentley is always well taken care of and Whitney is super great to schedule with. We had a rough trip home with flight delays. Moved pick up times like 3 time and ended up having to add two nights! Whitney was super flexible, adding days and rolling with the changes.”
“Diana is a great pup sitter! Everything went smoothly from drop off to pick up and my dog was very warm and cuddley with her which shows me she took the time to bond with my (somewhat shy) pup. Can’t ask for much more!”

“Merlyn was fantastic! She left very detailed reviews and our cats felt very comfortable with her. Loved the daily summaries and photos. Will definitely use her again the next time we go away!”
“Whitney has watched my kitties twice in a row now, and both times was able to schedule on short notice! At one point, I was feeling anxious because one of cats wasn’t coming out to see Whitney and I worried he had gotten stuck in one of the rooms we closed. Whitney took my concerns seriously and went back to check on him first thing the next morning (he was fine, I’m I just a worrywart).”
“Sara took great care of our kitties while we were on a weekend trip. She was very professional, caring and transparent in communication since from the beginning. I would highly recommend her and will be definitely booking her next time!”
“Aurora did an excellent job with Zoomy. She played with him to keep him from getting bored. She did a great job keeping everything clean. Greatly appreciate your help with Zoomy!”

“My cats warmed up to Tyler quite quickly. Was also very surprised that he cleaned up our place a little bit before I can home from being gone for two weeks. It was very much appreciated!!”
“Emily did an excellent job, taking care of my cat over 5 days. She checked in twice a day, sent cute photos of his interactions with her and kept him happy. I so appreciate her professionalism and concern for his welfare. Highly recommended!”
“Paige was an amazing sitter for my cat! She played with her during her drop ins and kept constant communication including sending me pics of each visit. I will definitely book with her again next time I go out of town. Thanks again Paige!”
“We’ve had sitters before, but never have we seen Buddy warming up to someone this quickly. He was literally demanding belly rubs from Sara the second day! Loki, of course, loved her from the start (he loves everyone), but it was especially heartwarming to see how relaxed and happy all three of our cats were while we were away. Even Lucy, who can be… let’s say, selectively social, tolerated her presence like a true diva. Sara clearly has a natural gift with animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our furry crew was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter!”
“Brenda was very patient with my 2 cats, who had never been left alone before. She took care of everything and I was very happy with the service she provided. Will definitely book again if needed.”
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties! She was incredibly sweet, friendly, and easy to communicate with the entire time which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”
“Stefanie took amazing care of our 2 fur babies. I love that she got on their level and played with them! Our cats were well loved while we went on vacation for a week. Highly recommend and we will be returning customers!! Thank you Stefanie.”
“Stella is the best! She's super communicative, timely, takes the cutest pictures and videos, and I can tell she genuinely enjoys being with my cats. She's won over my shy cat :)”
“Kaitlyn - you were awesome with my cat! Great communication. Followed instructions perfectly and my cat loved having her here! Kept my place safe & locked up as she was coming and going. First time using the app & it was so easy. I felt safe leaving my baby in Kaitlyn’s care & I will absolutely rebook her for my next trip!”

“Paige is wonderful with my dog, who has leash anxiety. As our regular dog walker, she is always punctual and communicative. On our first visit, Paige took the time to ask thoughtful questions about his triggers, routines, allergies, treats, and do’s and don’ts before starting. She handled him calmly and patiently, making safety and positive interactions a clear priority. I really appreciated how attentive and understanding she is, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Bebo was an excellent walker for our dog Spike! Very easy to communicate with and left thoughtful and descriptive summaries of the visits. Felt very much like our pup was in capable hands and we would definitely recommend!”
“She was very communicative and took pictures of my dogs and took them on a long walk. My dogs were so tired afterward. I really appreciate her also being accommodating with me. 10/10”
“Calynne has been walking my pup for the past couple of weeks while I’m at work and I’ve been very happy with my experience her with. My pup is always excited to see her. He can be a hand full but she definitely knows how to handle him and correct his behavior. I love that she was open to working with him on behavioral modification and mental stimulation in addition to her walks with Bear. I trust her in my home and with my pup. She’s amazing and will continue to request her for my pup’s walks.”
“I have a 155lb Great Dane and I am very weary of letting just anyone walk him because of his size and strength. Caity might not be big, but she’s mighty! The first walk I got cute pictures and updates, and when she showed up for the second walk it was like I no longer existed and it was the Oceyn and Caity show! That made me feel good that he has a good time with her. I’m pregnant and on bed rest so I can’t walk him myself… but even when I can walk him again I still plan to keep Caity around 😊”
“Emily J. filled in at the last minute for my weekly Saturday afternoon walk. She is very friendly, and my dog liked her instantly. She is on time and professional. I would definitely recommend her as a walker.”
“Thank you so much Aurora! I appreciate you being available last minute and for making time for a meet and greet. Ginger really seems to like you and I would be glad to have you provide care for her again in the future. Major thanks as well for feeding Ginger after her walk.”
“Karilou has walked my dogs in the past. Gus, my new pooch, immediately took to her. Karilou is friendly, reliable, knowledgeable, has a degree in animal behavior, and also has a knack for capturing awesome photos of Gus. She is nothing short of amazing. Thank you Karilou. Glad you're back!”
“Andrea was absolutely fantastic! Very responsive during the initial process and always on time. Our dog loved her and we will definitely contact her for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Molina was great. She agreed to meet the doggies before and they were so excited to see her. She was on time to walk them, played them him a little, and made sure they had water after.”
“Hana is amazing! I have been extremely scatterbrained and she’s been very understanding and worked with me when I messed up our walking schedule. She is a true dog whisperer and I trust her with our (sometimes very angry) 13 year old husky. She is very patient with him (and me) and has been a real lifesaver for dog walking on our busy 15 hour days!”
“CJ is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always feel at ease knowing Remy is in such good hands. Remy comes back happy, exercised, and well cared for every time. I highly recommend CJ to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”
“Audrey was such a gem! My dogs loved her, and she was super reliable and communicative. I was out of town for a work trip and it gave me such peace of mind to know my pups were in good hands. I’ll definitely use her again and would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“I am so thrilled with Sara! My pups are high energy and she really put them to work on their walk and provided so many updates! She went above and beyond just the walk and I know they had a blast. Will be booking her again!!”

I will use Erika in the future and would recommend her to friends!”
