We received daily updates and photos, and it was clear the cats were happy and comfortable in her care.

Would definitely recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a responsible and genuinely kind sitter!!”

Keira was great! She stayed with our cat for a day and overnight and we will definitely be reaching out to her when we need help again
OMGoodness, GRACE! Please trust us when we say that Grace is truly the sweetest sitter who did an amazing job of balancing doing her online school work and giving such loving attention to our two dogs. Our little dog - who is usually very suspect of / shy around new people - instantly loved her (which seriously never happens!) and she figured out ways to help calm our old anxious dog (by going on a sniffy walk and by lovingly letting her basically paw her face off). Grace came for a quick meet and greet the day before the sit, which made everyone feel much more at ease, and that was very generous of her time. During the sit, we had some unexpected circumstances arise, and Grace was more than willing to roll with the punches and adjust parameters and timing of the sit, etc. We will most definitely be asking for Grace to be a sitter for us in the future… And you will be extremely happy to do the same, no questions asked :)
Julia was absolutely amazing, I do not have enough positive things to say! She was patient and understanding with my dog who’s a retired breeder and still learning the way of being a pet. She kept my apartment clean and respected the home! I definitely recommend her for her responsiveness and kindness! 🤎
Brenda was amazing!!! She took great care of our house and our cats. Sent pictures and updates, and left the house cleaner than she found it. 😁 We needed last minute help, and she was so flexible and accommodating! I would not hesitate to hire her again!
Kaitlyn did a great job taking care of my dog and cats while I was on a work trip. My dog is scared of stormy weather, so Kaitlyn went back at lunch to let her out after the rain stopped. I would definitely hire Kaitlyn again.
Coral was great! We felt totally comfortable leaving our dog with her at our house for a long weekend. She checked in when she got to our house, as requested, and sent a couple photos during her time with our dog. Everything went smoothly. We'd happily have her back!
Zach was beyond amazing! He did a fantastic job taking care of our pets and being aware of our cat who needs a pill each day. Everything went smoothly!!
Thank you, Will! You took such great care of Rubes. I recommend Will to anyone that is looking for pet care. He did an excellent job with our dog while we were away for a long weekend. Thank you again, Will!
Ryan was timely with visits, gave frequent updates with pictures, and very communicative. Great experience with him petsitting for me!
Annie is one of Ollie's favorite sitters! She is so kind and communicated well throughout the stay. She takes great care of Ollie and the apartment, leaving things better than she finds them. Highly recommend Annie!
Anna was great—we needed last minute help and she was amazing with our older dog and a great communicator. Highly recommend.
Emily is a great communicator. Our girls really like her. Every stay seems to go smoothly. We highly recommend her. Thank you so much Emily!
Taylor was a great sitter for our two dogs. She was respectful and responsive and willing to video chat with me before she came to watch them. We would definitely book her again!
Hannah is the best! She’s going to school to be a vet and is super knowledgeable. She’s flexible and super responsive. She keeps our house clean and gives out cat so much love. We love having Hannah watch our house and cat sit!
Jordan took very good care of our pets and our house, even washed the bedding when Odara peed the bed. She’s also very responsive in communication. Will look to work with her again!
Natalee was phenomenal with Remora! Consistent updates, cute pics of my cat, and very reliable with scheduling and coordination. Natalee took great notes to make sure Remora was cared for the best as could be. Thank you!!
Sophie did a great job taking care of our 6 floofs and our home! We will definitely be working with her again!
Ben did an excellent job watching our two large dogs for almost a week at our apartment. He is friendly, responsible, and trustworthy! He followed all instructions well, and our dogs were definitely well cared for. We highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
McKenna did a great job watching our dog and keeping us updated. She was also super on time, which was appreciated and nicely did a meet and greet beforehand so our dog was comfortable.
Sophie is one of our go-to sitters, and we always feel so comfortable knowing our dog Charlie is in her hands while we're away. Sophie is responsive, professional, responsible, and, most importantly, she truly loves Charlie and Charlie loves her back. Very grateful to have Sophie on our team!
