Yashelle looked after my kitty and dog for a whole week while I was away on vacation. My pets were happy and healthy when I returned, and I received updates with tons of pictures while I was away. I'll definitely be booking her again for future pet sitting needs :-)

Thelma is superb and I highly recommend her! She was wonderful with my two cats during my prolonged time away from home 😊 She communicated frequently, sent picture updates, and proactively and immediately checked in when one of my cats had a brief issue. My cats also warmed up to her very quickly and enjoyed her company. I returned to my home in pristine order as well, as she stayed at my house with my furbabbies and kept everything very well maintained. Thanks again, Thelma!!

Jenny did a great job taking care of our hound at our house for a few days. She was very communicative, sending updates and pictures, asked good questions about Riley’s routine, and left the house clean. Riley was very well cared for with Jenny!

Even as two very anxious pet parents, Amanda did an AMAZING job with our girls and gave us a great peace of mind that they were in good hands. She was also very communicative and respectful to our pets and home. She even did things we didn’t ask like tidying up the home a bit. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future and recommend you do too!

Jeffrey was amazing with our 100lb American Akita for 15 days, constantly providing updates and pictures to ease my anxiety leaving my pet and home while out of the country! His experience with animals shines through in the way my Akita immediately fell in love with him. We would highly recommend him for your fur babies, and we look forward to booking with him again!

Terra is very reliable and responsible. She sent pictures and is a good communicator. There was an emergency with her friend who needed her support but was apologetic communicative and responsible about returning with in the amount of time that she had anticipated needing to leave. She was attentive to our puppy and took him for a walk even in these less than friendly temperatures.

If there was a way to give more than five stars I would give all of them to Relle. Not only did she take great care of my pets, I feel that she developed a good bond with them as well. I received wonderful updates everyday with photos while I was away and I felt my home was in great hands.

And, when our flight home was delayed, she was able to stay until she was sure we made it back! Highly recommend, will definitely book Addie again.

Patty sat for our three dogs over the worst winter storm we've had in years. She was willing to go the extra mile and helped us to keep our vacation plans - many would have backed out at the threat of being snowed in or power loss (no power loss thank goodness) but Patty was still up for the challenge.

We were VERY pleased with Jony. It was a last minute booking for an unexpected trip. He came to meet our dog and go over house/animal instructions beforehand. When he stayed at our house he left it cleaner than when he arrived! He took excellent care of our 10 yr old rescue German Shepherd and our chinchilla. Communication was excellent. We will definitely book with him again.

5/5 Stars – Emma is an Outstanding Cat Sitter! I recently had Emma look after my two cats while I was away for 4 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. We had a nice meet and greet and when I returned, my cats were happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. They met me with their usual purrs (no signs of stress at all). The house was left in perfect order—everything tidied up, and even a little note. We had great communication by email. When planning my next trip and will definitely book Emma again. If you want a reliable, caring sitter who treats your pets (and home) like her own, Emma is the one! Highly recommend.

Maple was very tired when we got home which means she must have had lots of fun! She also left the house very clean and asked questions to double check about things she wasn’t 100% sure about
