“Marcus did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, cat, and house. I received pictures throughout the trip with messages of what was going on. I came home to healthy and happy pets and my house in good order. Marcus is sweet and extremely respectful. I will book him again in a minute.”


2. Katherine R.

“Taylor was fantastic with my dog while I was away for a long trip. My dog took instantly to her when they first met, which is a rare occurrence! She took excellent care of my home and was attentive to my dogs needs. I have already re-booked with her for another stay, I would highly recommend!”


3. Taylor D.

“This is the second time we’ve used Taylor to watch our dog and cats. She has been fantastic and done a great job with all the animals. Shes taken great care of our house too and we highly recommend her to everyone!”


4. Caroline & Gavin C.


“Caroline & Gavin were amazing with my pup! They made him feel very comfortable and even took him on a walk. She communicated with me throughout the day and sent picture updates. Highly recommended!!”

“Alexander was awesome! She sent so many updates and pictures and made it so we didn’t have to worry at all!! Definitely recommend and will book again!”


6. Zacharia P.
“Zacharia does an incredible job with my dog Lenny. My dog is a rescue and has some reactive tendencies, but Zacharia puts Lenny at ease. Lenny is my best friend, and there are very few people who I would trust to take care of him. Zacharia is one of those people, and he has given Lenny the highest standard of care on numerous occasions. If I have a late meeting, Zacharia is happy to let Lenny out, feed him, and just keep him company for a while. Based on how happy Lenny was with Zacharia on these shorter stints, I was 100% comfortable when Zacharia watched Lenny for me for a full week. A few months later, he watched Lenny for me for two weeks while I was abroad. I got plenty of pictures of Lenny living the good life with his buddy Zacharia! If you want someone who truly loves animals, then I cannot think of a person more trustworthy than Zacharia. He truly loves all animals and is a gentle soul. I will never forget how dedicated Zacharia was when Lenny was preparing for, going through, and recovering from his ear surgery. When I had to work in the office, Zacharia made sure Lenny was taken care of. If you want someone with honesty, integrity, and a warm heart to take care of your pet, then get in touch with Zacharia. Some people just have a way with animals, and it’s incredible to have Zacharia available to help out.”




7. Viridianne R.

“We had the absolute best experience with Viridianne looking after our cat while we were away for an extended period of time. Communication was above and beyond, which made us feel so comfortable being away from our cat. She’s dependable and obviously loves animals! We will definitely ask for her services in the future when we are away ☺️”


8. Jessica M.

“My girls were in the best care with Jessica!”


9. Vanessa R.

“Vanessa was an excellent house sitter! She was easy to communicate with through all phases of booking and house sitting. While I was away she sent pictures of my kitties and gave daily updates. I arrived home to a spotless home and two very happy cats. I would love to have Vanessa care for my cats and home again.”


10. Emmie H.
“Emmie loves animals and has been caring for them most of her life, in many capacities, including: pet sitting, fostering for local rescues and shelters, and even caring for farm animals. Dogs, cats, donkeys, birds and most any kind of animal seem to love Emmie. I can't think of a better, more compassionate, person to care for God's creatures.”


11. Ken D.

About: We have always had animals in the house, whether it be dogs or cats. I have had multiple dogs for the past 8 years, with as many as 5 dogs in the family at once. Currently we have three dogs; They are wonderful but very much like children. I feed them twice a day, go on walks with them for a few miles multiple times a week, and make sure they get as much love and attention as they need (which is a lot since they like attention). I know what it takes to properly take care of a dog and would love the chance to share that with your pet. I love animals and am really looking forward to being able to spend more time with them. I'm currently working from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your dog(s) or cat(s). I am available on weekends any time and most always during the week. If for some reason I cant accommodate your request I will let you know up front. I have a fenced in yard with a gate so I am very careful to be sure that when I let your dog(s) outside that I will watch them and make sure they stay inside the fence. When we are going over details I will ask that if you have anything in particular you would like in terms of how to care for them please let me know.

“Great care given to our Berri. Ty. We will be repeat clients 100%”


13. Azadeh C.
About: My professional friends who travel often for conferences within US and internationally, have trusted me and my abilities to take care of their loving houses and dogs over 5 years. I make sure to walk the dogs frequently since I work remotely, I am available every 2 hours to take them on walks. Play with them and give them love and attention they deserve. I feed them on the recommended portion and schedule. Currently I work remotely, so I will be in the house with the pets all day long, and over nights. For me walking is the best part of my breaks from my computers. I am available from early mornings to late nights 3 or 4 nights a week. I will follow the clear instructions given by the owners to ensure the pets are on their routine and schedule. I have taken care of my friends' house and their dogs for over a week at the time. I can easily give a bath to your dog to ensure they stay clean while you are gone.


14. Rhiannon H.
“Rhiannon has cared for my German Shepherds several times while I was away on business. She treated them like her own dogs. My female was expecting and went into labor. Rhiannon sprang into action and helped my dog deliver her pups! She is also exceptional at organizing their grooming and vet appointments for me, as I have a very busy schedule. I would highly recommend her services. She is very professional and dependable.”


15. Jessica T.


“Jessica was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our babies while we were away, it was so refreshing not to have to worry about them, they were in great hands. She sent pics as well which I loved! We will be definitely using her again. I highly recommend her! She will take care of your babies like they’re her own❤️”

17. Harley M.

“A+++ Harley was knowledgeable and mature, caring and trustworthy! We could not have found anyone more qualified to pet/house sit for us. There was not one moment of concern while we were away as to whether or not our pets were in good hands. She communicated every day with photos and messages showing how happy they were. We couldn't be more grateful for her service, her time and her attention shown in loving our dogs as if they were her own.”


18. Raeann C.

“Raeann was wonderful with my dog and cat! She took such great care of my very senior dog who needed extra attention. I’m so grateful to her for keeping my worries down so I could relax and have a great vacation.”


19. Anica S.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 11 years old and I absolutely love meeting new people! My friends and family always refers me as the “crazy cat lady” because I have 3 cats of my own! I am currently in school Monday-Thursday so I offer pet care Friday-Sunday! I always try and make time and make sure I am a help to others! I make sure if pets need to be leashed that it happens before going outside or leaving the house! I also always clean up after each animal to ensure cleanliness in the neighborhood!


20. Aikiera C.
“I have known Aikiera for about 5 years. We met specifically because I was having health issues and needed help with my dog. She was excellent and my dog got so excited to see her coming. We only agreed on walks, but I’d often look outside and see them playing in the yard.”
