1. Raquel Z.
“Raquel did an amazing job watching our senior, not-very-social cat, Pearl while we were away for a week. She was patient and calm with Pearl, and I think our cat really ended up enjoying her company. She went above and beyond, giving us a detailed report as to how Pearly was doing on the daily basis. If you're someone who is hesitant about hiring someone, as opposed to asking friends or family for pet sitting, I would definitely recommend hiring Raquel.”
2. Jillian H.
“Jillian is an awesome sitter and have been using her for over a year now. She does a great job, cares about my cat and trust her. Highly recommended!”
3. Veronica M.

4. Susan F.
“A long-time dog owner, Sue is wonderful with dogs (and humans, for that matter). Sue is an exceptionally responsible, respectful and empathetic "dog person". Sue is possessed of good judgment, good humor, and good will, making her a highly reliable and kind person with whom to work. Her experience as a dog owner, her general love of dogs, and her energy and personal character go really well in helping other pet owners with walking and care of family dogs.”
5. Vivian C.
“Vivian has been an absolute lifesaver! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. Our dog Kovu can be a bit anxious around new people, but he took to Vivian immediately. She’s incredibly patient, attentive, and has a natural way with pets. Whether it’s a walk or an overnight stay, we always feel at ease knowing Kovu is being taken care of. Vivian goes above and beyond, sending updates and photos, which I really appreciate. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

I would highly recommend her.”

19. Sofia & Marco L.
“I have known Sofia for about 17 years, and in that time, she has always had a deep love for dogs. In September of 2017, we were presented with an opportunity to adopt a puppy in need, that had been abandoned on the side of the road with its litter mates and mother. The puppies were initially rescued by a mutual friend and were kept safe until they were old enough to be adopted. Sofia and I both jumped on the chance to rescue these pups and give them the homes they deserved. I took a pup who I named Larry, and Sofia brought home Bruno. Bruno is a great dog. He is loyal, friendly, obedient, and sweet as can be, and I know a big part of that comes from the way Sofia raised and trained him. Sofia worked with Bruno diligently in the first few months of adopting him. She was firm with him, but also patient and kind. Bruno lives a good life chasing squirrels, playing soccer, going on walks, eating treats, and being spoiled by his loving parents. I know without a doubt in my mind that Sofia would care for your pet the exact same way she cares for her baby Bruno. She loves him endlessly and is such a great dog mom to him. Sofia is one of the most responsible and hard working people I know. She has an effective communication style, and will make sure all your dog’s needs are met while you are away. I have trusted Sofia with my own dog, who is 10x more crazy than Bruno, and she handled him effortlessly. Your pup will be in great hands with Sofia, I promise.”
20. Maggie L.
“Maggie is great! She is now a great friend and I trust her greatly with both my big mutt, Bear, and my dwarf hamster, Ziggy. She is young and therefore energetic, but still very responsible! I can't recommend her enough.”
