“Kaylee and Nick were fantastic. Our pups were well taken care of and wore out when I picked them up. They communicated with me throughout the week and even sent a couple pics. Highly recommend and we will for sure be back.”


3. Angie V.

“Angie did a fantastic job as a sitter. Her compassion, knowledge and attention to detail about animals is unparalleled. I would highly recommend Angie V.”


4. Myle D.

“Mule was so wonderful with our two dogs! She communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures and even some videos. She's very attentive and the pictures showed how much fun everyone was having.”


5. Ming W.

“Ming looked after my dog for 4 days while I was out of town. It’s always a bit unnerving leaving your loved ones with someone else and I’ve had mixed experiences using Rover, but this was a very positive experience. Ming has a nice house, fenced yard and works from home, so he was able to give my dog a good amount of attention. He was very good about checking in every day and sending photos and, overall, a very responsive communicator. I will most definitely use Ming the next time I need a sitter!”

12. Debra S.

“Deb took such wonderful care of our puppy! She was only 13 weeks when we had to leave her for 2 nights, and she went above and beyond helping her adjust! She listens and cares how we are training her, does the same things, tries some of her own stuff, and just loves on Luna. I couldn't ask for a more caring sitter and Luna will be back. She got undivided attention, and training..I couldn't ask for a better place for her. She sent videos and photos the whole stay! And responded whenever I checked in with her. Thank you for loving Luna.”


13. Aimee C.

“Maggie had a wonderful time at Katrina’s once again! It was so comforting to know she was well taken care of while we were gone.”




15. Jena F.

“Jena took wonderful care of Indie, our boxer. She took her to the dog park and the pet store to pick out treats. She texted us photos and kept us up to date on how Indie was doing over the three days we were gone. She also sent her home with a treat bag. Highly recommend.”


16. Angie B.

“She goes above and beyond with keeping you in touch with your pet. She takes better care of your loved ones even better than yourself. I will use her as much as possible in the future! Thanks Angie...”




17. Kat B.

“We are SO grateful for Kat. She allowed our Dakota to stay in her home for a week while we were away for our wedding. Before the week vacation began, I was so nervous to leave Dakota with someone I didn’t know, we’d never done that before. Though, Kat went above and beyond. She moved plants around in her home to help keep Dakota safe. She allowed Dakota to drink water from the sink, like she does at home, to help keep Dakota happy! During the stay, she sent pictures and updates each day. And at the end, she had everything packed and ready to go for me upon pick up! It couldn’t have been a better experience and Kat a more perfect sitter. We will definitely be asking Kat for her help in the future! Thank you!!!!!!!”




18. Danielle W.

“Izzy had a great time with Danielle and her pups! Danielle responded quickly to texts and sent lots of pictures so I would know Izzy was comfortable. Would definitely recommend!”


19. Tiffany S.

“Windsor just came back from a week stay with Tiffany and Soriya and must have had the best time, He’s done nothing but sleep all day! He always comes home tired so that tells me he enjoys his stay with them!”

“Excellent care and attentive! Nicole very much loves pets and provided such good care for our cat in her lovely home while we were gone all week. We loved getting updates and photos! Stinger felt right at home there!”
