“Very good with our dog and easy to work with. We will use Emily again for sure, per our dogs orders.”
2. Ayla D.
“Ayla did a great job! Our Fozzy loved her!”
3. Ann R.
“Ann was great! Her communication was excellent. I received multiple photos and updates daily. I was informed each time my dog took his medication. I was super hesitant leaving one of my new fur babies home with a "stranger" and it seems he now has a new friend. All three of my animals were well cared for and I came home to my house exactly as I left it.”
4. Megan L.
“Megan was great! I received daily pics of Garfunkel showing his cute little happy face! I would recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
5. Crystal S.
“Crystal was great with Sage and giving her activities to do. She also provided ample updates which helped make it less stressful being away from my dog for so long. 10/10 would recommend!”
6. Jessie L.
“Jessie is very kind and loving, especially with dogs. She takes very good care of her own dog, and makes certain he is cared for every day. She’s responsible, timely, and works hard at whatever she is doing. She’ll be a great dog sitter.”
7. Audrey B.
“Audrey is an amazing pet sitter. She is attentive and knowledgeable. She has cared for our menagerie (cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, chickens, ducks, cows) with such love and care and makes a point to send regular updates to let us know how everyone is doing. I recommend her to all my friends!”
8. Beth E.
“Did an amazing job even tho my pup was being difficult”
9. Esiah K.
“I would highly recommend to book with Esiah if you have the chance! She was very communicative sending pictures and videos daily. She watched our dog and two cats for over a week, and this was one of the only trips I was able to fully relax and know that they were in great hands. I will definitely be using Esiah in the future if she is available. Thanks for everything!”
10. Allison M.
“Allison watched my 14 year old lab, my 10 year old drama queen shitzu, my two cats, and my three year old husky. I was scared to let someone watch my animals because they are escape artists, but I know Allison personally and knew she was the woman for the job. She was at my house tending to them more than I asked of her. She took my husky and lab on separate walks because my old lab would not be able to keep up. She texted me many photos during her time watching them and they looked so happy! I’m very glad I took the risk and trusted Allison to take care of my family. She is very responsible, timely, and caring. I will definitely be having her watch them again!”
11. Mattison K.
“Mattison was great! She handled 2 large dogs and 2 cats for a week when we went out of state. She had to follow a lot of instructions and was patient with our pets. She responded to texts and requests. I would hire her again! I appreciated videos and pics of her playing with the pups and kitties.”
12. Lindsay G.
“Lindsay is a great dog caretaker. I know my pet is safe and happy in her care. She is a great communicator and provides updates and pictures through out my dogs time with her. She loves the outdoors and lets my dog have a lot of outdoor play time. After a stay with Lindsay, my dog is so happy and is always excited for his stays with her. Lindsay is one of my favorite pet caregivers.”
13. Nicholas H.
“Nicholas took excellent care of my dogs while I was on fire assignment. He not only was extremely respectful of my space, he treated my dogs as if they were his own and sent me updates and pictures as requested. He was confident and more than experienced in handling my reactive dog on and off leash, as well as providing the proper feeding schedule and required medications to both dogs. I will definitely be using Nicholas in the future. I would highly recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for pet care! Thank you!”
