1. Victoria B.

“Victoria was amazing. All the boys seemed to have a great time with her while we were gone. She went above and beyond to make us comfortable leaving. She also left a few extra touches around the house that showed just how well she cared for our home as well.”


2. Yasmin M.

“Yasmin went above and beyond and took my kitten Sir Snuggles to the vet when he was not feeling well (with my approval) when I was on travel abroad. She even got the vet on the phone at the appointment to talk to me. She was fantastic - and Snuggs is all better now thanks to her help.”


3. Mackenzie W.

“Our senior dogs tend to get really scared with new people and are high anxiety when we get home. This time was different - they were happy, calm and went right back to their normal routine when we got home. We had daily photo/video updates which was so appreciated. Highly recommend!!”


4. Allison G.

“Allison was great!! We have an anxious large Retriever and we came home to a happy content boy! The house was cleaner then when we left and we got so many cute photos and updates. Very happy with Allison and highly recommend!”


5. Brenda E.


“Brenda was the perfect sitter for our two dogs. She followed our instructions well and spent a lot of time engaging with them. She took great care of the house, and it was probably cleaner when she left than it was when she arrived. We can’t wait to use her again!”


6. Nadine H.

“Nadine was absolutely professional, always sent me pictures and little notes about anything going on with my dog. Followed instructions to the letter.”


7. Jessica D.

“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!!”


8. Cory W.

“Cory is awesome! Always communicates and is on time. One of the best dog sitters we have ever had! Thanks Cory we never worry when we leave Elvis with you!”


9. Molly B.


“Our dog is a little nervous and he seemed to do great with Molly staying with him for the weekend! We got periodic photo updates so we could see how he was doing. We’d definitely have Molly stay with him again!”




10. Kendra M.

“Kendra was fabulous. Visited 2 weeks prior to meet Saul and look at the home/location. Quick to respond to texts and sent photos often. Home was just as I left it and came home to a happy Saul. Thank you!”


11. Nancy P.

“Nancy went above and beyond caring for our boy and home while we were away! Additionally, we appreciated her responsive communication and the extra time she took for two meet and greets. We highly recommend her services.”


12. Jess P.

“Jess has always performed at a high level. Great communication. We trust her to be in our home and care for our pets.”


13. Summer M.

“Summer did an amazing job. This was our first experience with in-home care and it was really reassuring to know that Bama was getting good care. She noticed if there were any issues, worked with me when things came up, and, most importantly gave her love and attention when we weren't there. Her vet tech training gave me peace of mind since Bama is an older dog. She sent pics and videos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Summer again if the need arose. Thanks, Summer!”


14. Cassidy W.

“Cassidy always goes above and beyond to treat Kuma like one of her own!”


15. Tatum M.
“We had the pleasure of working with Tatum as our dog sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took wonderful care of our dogs during our vacation. Tatum helped us out with only a week notice as our other sitter had to cancel last minute. I instantly felt comfortable when I met her and knew our dogs would be in great hands. Tatum was always responsive and provided updates, so I never had to worry. We came home to happy and well-cared-for dogs. You can truly see the genuine love she has for animals. Highly recommended!”


16. Tiffany D.

“Tiffany was amazing and took great care of our two dogs, and one is a puppy! Loved all the updates she sent with pictures and videos. House was so clean and left little notes for us. She will be our go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you Tiffany!🩷”


17. Jane O.


“Jane was great with our two cats, who are not best friends so their cat politics can be a challenge sometimes. They were happy and calm when we got home, and they really enjoyed enrichment and having human and puppy company around. She took great care of our home and made sure to ask for clarification on any household things to check on as well. Thank you, Jane. Being gone is so much easier when you know your fur buddies are well taken care of.”


18. Donna G.

“Donna was nice and very easy to work with. She was reliable and on time for both the initial meeting and for the stay so we could leave on time. She did a great job and provided some good updates and pictures of the dogs. Thanks for taking good care of them!”


19. Natasha J.

“Natasha was an amazing dog/house sitter! She left my house spotless and sent the perfect amount of updates. We felt very comfortable with her staying at our house and taking care of our dog!!”


20. Sandra T.
“I would have Sandra watch my dogs anytime. She stayed with them, cared for them, anytime I need her. She is an absolute animal lover. Highly recommend her for any pets.”
