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.

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.

Grace was awesome! I would give her 10 stars if I could. She was great with both my dog and very old cat who was also sick during the stay. She helped with his meds and was very attentive. Winston loved hanging out with her and was very content when I got home.

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

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!

Jonathan just spent the weekend with our dog, Bogart. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy pup. We got frequent updates with many great pictures and plan to use Jonathan again when we go on an extended trip this Fall. Bogart is a very big dog and has never been left with anyone except family. Jonathan has a very calm and relaxed vibe and Bogart seemed immediately comfortable with him at their first meeting and was very excited when he returned for the weekend. It’s very nice to have found someone we are comfortable with to take care of our dog and our home.

Kayli did a wonderful job taking care of our girls while we were out of town. She provided regular updates and pictures and reached out when she noticed one of our dogs was chewing at her paw. It was just some mild irritation, but I appreciated her paying close attention to our dogs and letting me know there was a possible issue. I'd use her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Jordan was so sweet and took great care of my 2 doodles! I’ve never used a pet sitter before and Jordan was able to come do a meet and greet to make sure the pups and I were comfortable. She sent me daily pictures and updates. I highly recommend Jordan and will definitely be using her again in the future! :)

Brian was great as a sitter for my pups and my home! I have two pups - one who can struggle with reactivity and another who can be stubborn in her houndy ways - and they were very comfortable with him from their first meeting on! They have never had anyone care for them in the house overnight that they did not already know, so I was nervous, but he did well assessing and responding to their vibes and needs and was excellent in his communication with me. I highly recommend Brian for your dog-walking or house-sitting needs!

Lynne was a great house sitter and did an excellent job taking care of our fur baby. She shared photos every day and even left a sweet message to welcome us home. It was comforting knowing our geriatric lab had company, especially in the evening, while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Lynne and look forward to rebooking with her in the future!
