1. Yajahyra S.

“Amazing as usual!! Yajahyra administered meds for our dog and took great care of him while we were in Mexico. We love all of her picture and video updates! Highly recommend!”


2. Alexandra T.

“Alex is awesome. She takes wonderful care of our baby and house. She goes above and beyond what is asked of her. Our minds can be focused on enjoying our vacation instead of worrying about our dog and house. Highly recommended!”


3. Michelle S.

“Michelle was a great sitter. She took fabulous care of Juniper and made sure to ask questions along the way during the visit to make sure everything for Juniper’s routine/care was in order. She left the apartment sparkling clean. Communication throughout her visit was great AND she sent tons of pics of cutie little Juni! Will definitely ask Michelle to sit for me again. ☺️”


4. Josette F.

“Josette has been wonderful with our two dogs! We have an anxious girl who is typically nervous around new people but she took to Josette right away and is now very excited when she comes because she knows she is going to go on an adventure with her and have a blast. Josette is also great with our senior guy, and she’s able to tire them both out even though they have different exercise needs. Josette also totally spoiled them with plenty of treats (pre-approved by us) and by switching up the activities she took them on so every day was new and exciting. She also sent plenty of update photos, which we appreciate. We’re very pleased with how quickly our dogs became comfortable with her and we fully trust her with our fur babies. I highly recommend Josette!”


5. Beth W.


“Beth lived in and watched our Irish wolfhounds and cats. First I am the most anal compulsive person when it comes to my hounds. I have great anxiety leaving my heard of animals but anxiety was out the window with Beth taking excellent care and attention to them. My hounds were relaxed when I came home. She sent photos of the hounds loving her. I highly recommend Beth. She knows dogs and has fantastic intuition to their needs. My hounds love love Beth!!!”




6. Meg D.

“Meg was extremely reliable and communicated regularly in advance of our trip and while we were away. I’d readily recommend her to anyone as a high quality dog and home sitter.”


7. Michael N.

“Michael was incredible with our two fur babies. He stayed in contact all the time and walked them multiple times a day. The house was immaculate when we got home and the dogs were very happy. Highly recommend him and we will be using his excellent service again! Thank you so much 😊”


8. Joanne M.
“I couldn't be more happy to attest to the care and attention my pets (3 dogs) receive from Joanne when she is in town helping us out. I always know our fur family will be in great hands. She goes above and beyond to make sure our pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while we are away. She keeps us updated with adorable photos and messages during her time with them. Joanne is highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter or walker!”


9. Karen P.

“Karen is the best!! She took on a short notice booking for a us and took great care of Toby. She kept us updated and managed to handle Toby which was a blessing. Highly recommend and greatly appreciated!”


10. Kelsey D.

“Kelsey was AWESOME! She came by about a week before our big trip (our first big trip away from our fur babies where they didn't stay with family). She read all of the pet instructions before arriving, and was very attentive to all of their needs - especially to our one dog's skin allergies. During the trip she sent photos / videos every day. And she was extremely patient with our other dog who is a pretty anxious dog. Kelsey really took her time with building trust with that dog until she was ready to go on walks with Kelsey and even snuggle with her. Kelsey was also very patient with dealing with someone parking in our parking spot on New Year's Eve and having to get that person towed. All in all, she was extremely professional, easy to communicate with, and fantastic with our girls. We've never come home to them being as happy and relaxed as this trip when Kelsey stayed with them! We will definitely keep working with her!”


11. Madora M.
“Madora is a wonderful doggie sitter! She will love your dog unconditionally and will take care of them as if they were hers. I have two Great Danes and she loves on them so so much! She is also very attentive and remembers all the details and specifics of our doggie’s personalities and tailors to them in the best way! Highly recommend her to watch my doggies anytime.”


12. Brittany B.

“Brittany was fantastic! She was comfortable with my giant dogs, loved on them like her own and was really flexible with a last minute booking! I would 💯 recommend and use again”


13. Gabrielle M.

“Fantastic!”


14. Lauren F.

“Lauren took great care of my dogs while I was away for a few days. She stayed at my place, and sent me updates every evening. I knew my dogs were in great hands. She loves my doggies! I felt so relieved to have Lauren with Lauren🙂”


15. Quen G.

“Quen has watched our dogs (and now single dog) twice now and we couldn’t be happier with her service. Our pups are always well taken care of, we get lots of updates and photos of their day together. She is also active duty so she has base access which makes it that much easier for us. Love her!”


16. Emily W.
“Emily is a true animal lover! She is an empath, and genuinely cares about the wellbeing of the pets she is taking care of. Emily’s bond with any animal she encounters is unbreakable, I think they can all sense her loving and caring energy, which engages them to be comfortable around her. Emily will be such a pleasant caregiver for your pet, she is the best choice to consider!!!”


17. Melanie J.

“Melanie was reliable and it’s clear that she took good care of Leia. And they both appeared to like each other. I would definitely use her services again when I need someone who can stay at our house.”


18. Hannah S.
“Hannah was a great sitter! She was very communicative, sent adorable photos and was overall awesome with our dogs - and that is especially important since we have a leash reactive dog. We will definitely reach out to Hannah again to stay with our pups!”


19. Vanessa C.

“Vanessa was great! Our dog loved her and she took very good care of him. She sent pictures everyday, and they seemed to have a great time together. We will definitely use her again in the future.”


20. Kenisha R.

“Kenisha was a great caregiver for our pup and home! We had easy communication and she has such a lovely energy about her. We expect to have her back once we put some travel on the calendar!”
