“Daniel did a fantastic job taking care of my two dogs and the house for 3 days. One of the dogs was sick and needed several medications which he stayed on top of.

6. Sydney B.
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my pup. I was so grateful to find her on short notice, and really appreciate she made time to come by for a quick meet and greet before my trip. She kept me updated on how my pup was doing, and I came home to a happy, snoozy dog. I hope I’ll have a chance to work with Sydney again!”

9. Mckinley B.
“I couldn’t suggest Mckinley more to be a great and loving caretaker for your dog. My dog, Honey, absolutely loves Mckinley and is always looks forward to walks with him. Mckinley always goes above and beyond to ensure that Honey is happy and safe. I am incredibly particular about who I allow to care for my dog, and I can say confidently that Mckinley is always my go-to when looking for someone to take care of my Honey. Not only is he responsible and experienced in making sure that my puppy is safe, but he also makes sure she is loved. Honey always comes home from their walks and hangouts tired, happy, and in a better mood than before.”
10. Joshua D.

“Ayreal was thorough, attentive, communicated at every step and kept in touch throughout the whole process. She sent photos and updates and made sure all our fur babies were well taken care of. She was very patient with our female cat who is usually the less social one and also took great care of our house and plants as well! We would definitely work with Ayreal again, a trustworthy sitter all around.”
15. Lindsay W.
“Lindsay was so amazing with my 3 month old puppy! Lottie is quite a handful since she’s in full on puppy chaos mode but Lindsay handled it all like a champ!

18. Bret L.
“Bret accepted our short notice booking and stopped by for a meet & greet before we headed out for a weekend trip, which was great. Our pets are currently pretty low maintenance but it was important for us to have someone stay the weekend while we had some R&R. We’d have Bret back on a future vacation.”
19. Katey B.
“Katey Blevens was my pet sitter for several years. I had some very old, very sick animals. She was always professional and was very good at caring for my old, ill animals. When I got a younger dog, she took him to the dog park, on long walks and to play dates and training classes on her own, with my permission, of course. We all miss her because she was so dependable and loved our animals as if they were her own. She is 100% trustworthy. Your pets will thank you!”

“Molly was great with my two dogs, she gave me updates and pictures while I was away!”
