Oli is wonderful! Our pups need special care (one is a blind tripawd and the other wears shoes for all outings) and Oli did an excellent job caring for them - keeping up with all of their special needs, medications, and of course giving them lots of love.

Rosemary is the absolute best!! She is responsive, attentive and took amazing care of our elderly golden doodle who requires twice daily insulin shots. She cared for our home as well—we returned to a spotless house and thought the house cleaners had come! We are excited to hire Rosemary again. ?❤️

I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.

Kayli was amazing! She kept me updated with texts and pictures and I knew my animals were safe in her care. She was comfortable with our very large dog (200 pounds), which is always my concern. He can be a lot just because of his size, but she was so great with him. I’ll definitely book with Kayli again!

Jordan was extremely communicative and updated me to let me know the boys (our dogs) were doing good! She also checked before having guests over which just shows how considerate she is while staying in other’s homes! We felt very safe having her there with them and really appreciated how quick she was to respond, etc. will definitely be requesting Jordan again!

We needed a Rover pretty last minute and Jerica was able to help us in a pinch! She agreed to a meet up so we could get to know her a little bit and have the dogs interact with her. She didn’t leave our dogs for very long periods of time and let them run around in our backyard constantly! They were some happy girls! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come back to!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

Marinie did a phenomenal job watching Quasar. She kept in touch while I was away, with perfect balance of information and requesting information back from me. I had no concerns about my boy, so could enjoy myself completely.

Emily is fantastic! After meeting, we were immediately put at ease with leaving our pups with them. Emily dealt with our high anxiety dog like a pro and reassured me all was well throughout the visit. Our pack can be a handful but Emily had no problems and went above and beyond for them. I cannot say enough positive things! We will most definitely be using Emily again. Highly recommend!

Lily watched our dogs in our home over three days. She kept us informed with both update messages and photos. When we returned home, the house was clean as if she had never been there, including trash being taken out, dishes, washed, sheets and towels washed, dried and returned to their place. Definitely a five star experience. I am a helicopter dog dad so I am very grateful for her professionalism and great care of our pups.

Katrina treated my dogs just like her own… She took the best care of them, communicated with me throughout my trip, and my gut instinct told me that they were in the best hands. For once my instincts were right! My 15 year old pitbull, Romeo, could not have been happier when I came home. He looked even younger than when I left, I swear! And my sweet and sassy and very smart pit - husky mix, Jade, was calm & serene when i came home.. I could tell that they had gotten amazing care and a ton of love. She took them on wonderful walks, whether it was raining or not, and she made sure to ask any questions that she had. I can’t think of anything that she could’ve done better… I feel so fortunate to have had her as my sitter. I don’t think I will ever use anyone else unless she isn’t available. I can’t recommend her highly enough. And as a dog groomer and vet tech for 12 years, I have high standards for care. She exceeded my standards & expectations. Thank you so much, from Romeo, Josie and Jade. We can’t wait to see you next time!

Winter takes care of my two cats consistently. They're a pleasure to work with each time, and my baby boys come running to see them every time they're over. Winter is timely and great at communicating with me any updates or reports I request from them when they're with my cats, and they keep the place tidier than when I left it. They're very polite, and take any and all direction with grace. Genuinely the best pet sitter I've ever had!
