7. Erin P.
“Let me start by saying that Erin is an incredible dog sitter who clearly knows what she is doing and cares for doggies. She asked questions about how my dogs need to be cared for/ if they have any special needs, she asked about behaviors and how they like to be loved. I could tell when I picked them up that they’d been given everything they needed. (Plus, she has the sweetest dogs of her own). Will use Erin again for sure!”
8. Emma B.
“Emma has been our farm sitter of choice for years. At 16 years old, she was far more responsible than many older adults. She is capable, knowledgeable and willing to work. She clearly loves all animals and can handle difficult situations with a calm, cool head. I have the very highest regard for her!”

“I am beyond grateful for Tonya. I was able to take a once in a lifetime vacation because Tonya was there for me. I have a 20 year old very needy pup who isn't easy to care for. She took such good care of him and my home, even while, my smoke alarms decided to beep the entire 8 days. She is a patient woman. I hope you are lucky enough to book her.”
11. Lindsay S.
“We appreciate Lindsay taking Barrett so last minute (again 😆)! We got daily picture updates and a little card about his stay after. “Barrett come back” is apparently popular over there as well 🤣 He has room to roam and play which is perfect. Thank you!”
12. Caroline C.
“Caroline is so sweet, responsible and lovely! She took such good care of Charlie and I would not hesitate to have her watch him again.

Caroline is a natural, and I am so grateful to have her care for my baby”

16. Marissa G.
“Our dogs had such a wonderful weekend with Marissa and her family! They take such great care of our pups and make sure they get lots of attention and stimulation. Marissa sends updates and photos every day that help ease our minds while we are away! We couldn’t recommend her more!”
17. Nathan B.
“I am writing to recommend Nathan as a pet care provider. Nate has been doing pet care services now for going on 10 years. (In addition to providing this service, he also does house sitting.) Nathan is a pet owner himself and has helped me whelp 3 litters of German Shepherd pups, as well as raise/train my current German Shepherd. Nathan is a very responsible pet owner and a consummate professional. If you are looking to hire someone who will give your pet(s) the care and attention they deserve, please consider Nate for the job. You won't be disappointed!”

“Katie is amazing with animals, dedicated, caring and competent. My dog Moose is excited every time he sees her house. She provides plenty of exercise and attention. She communicates very well, kept me updated and sent a few pictures. Highly recommend her.”
19. Alyx C.
“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”
20. Vanessa H.
“Vanessa sent several updates and pictures during Otis’s stay and when I picked him up he seemed calm and comfortable. He clearly enjoyed his night with her and she must have been entertaining because he’s been sleeping since we got home! Otis can’t wait to go back and see Vanessa again soon!”
