“Shawnee stayed with Josey while I went out of town for a night. She was very easy to work with and took good care of my baby. She sent pictures and communicated well.”
2. Christian W.
“From day one Christian was professional and willing to work with our not so friendly boy. We got hourly updates with pictures on our animals. One of our animals got sick while we were away and Christian was great with extra cuddles and provided what was needed. We had no worries or hesitations about our kitties and dogs while we were away.”
3. Megan F.
“I could tell our dog, Charles, was well taken care of during his time with Megan. Megan is also super responsive and sent us pictures all weekend. Will definitely book with Megan again!”
4. Joshua G.
“Josh was FANTASTIC! Quick and clear communication when booking, even came for a meet and greet beforehand! Got pictures daily so we knew our pets were safe and happy - which is always a big relief when we have to travel. Our house was the same as we left it, clean! We'll definitely be booking with Josh again - it was well worth it!”
5. Amberlyn B.
“Amberlyn hung out with our sweet boy all day and took great care of him. She write me a details update after her shift, which was appreciated!”
6. Kenneth C.
“Kenny took care of our three dogs and one cat for a week while we were on vacation and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. His attention to each pet's needs, the way he engaged with each of them, his patience with our 17 year old spicy chihuahua (with special needs) was more than I could have hoped for. Kenny was always communicative, sent lots of pictures, asked all the questions you hope your sitter will ask, and took amazing care of our pets and our home. Having him care for our crew made our vacation so much more enjoyable because I knew I didn't need to worry about how things were going at home. Honestly - if I could give Kenny more than 5 stars, I would - he's the best!”
7. Katelyn S.
“Katey was great! She sent lots of photo updates of our pups and cat. It is so comforting to know our babies are with someone who genuinely cares about them. Thank you Katey!”
8. Alison N.
“Alison recently house sat for us while we traveled out of town for a wedding and was absolutely wonderful! We have a senior cat and two dogs, who don't always take quickly to new people. Alison was extremely calm and patient with their initial barking antics until they settled. It's clear she's had experience with many types of animal personalities and is extremely comfortable as she gets to know new fur babies! She always responded quickly and clearly, kept us updated throughout our trip, and cleaned up flawlessly before leaving. We will definitely request Alison again! :-)”
9. Kirsten F.
“Amazing as always! She is so attentive to my pets and so willing to go above and beyond. Trusting someone with my fur babies is hard but I have had no worries with Kirsten. She is truly amazing!”
10. Alicia P.
“Alicia has been taking care of animals since she was a little kid from dogs, to fishes, to parrots, to lizards, and even the neighborhood cat. Alicia will be a great pet caregiver and is sure to treat your pet with the upmost care and respect. I know she will do a. An amazing job!”
11. Sabrina G.
“Sabrina is so sweet! I was kind of skeptical about having someone I didn’t know house/dogsit, but Sabrina made me feel super comfortable about the whole process. She sent pictures of our dog several times a day to put my mind at ease. Came back from our trip and our dog was safe & happy and the house was just like we left it. I highly recommend Sabrina!”
12. Christina M.
“Christina was great with our dog and cat. She kept to their schedules and stayed at our place for several nights. You couldn't even tell she had been here. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

20. Luciano B.
“We highly recommend Luciano. He handled our Weimaraner, who has separation anxiety, with extreme kindness, in a gentle, calming manner. He is truly a pro not to mention being a very pleasant, polite gentlemen. We would love to have him care for our Weim in the future, however, unfortunately we live on the east coast of Florida and he is in the Tampa Bay Area.”
