Jillian was fantastic with my dog, Stella! I have a lot of trouble leaving Stella, even for a weekend and Jillian made sure that I got lots of pictures with each visit and was thorough in her post-walk Rover cards. Will definitely be using Jillian again!

I would highly recommend Susan to walk your dog. She is fun, loving and compassionate. As with many of us, my dog is a family member that requires daily attention. When I need a little help in getting my Pluto outside for exercise and loving attention Susan is my go to gal. She can be trusted with your most precious pet. My dog is now 14 years old and loves her. Sincerely, Suzan

Lizeth is the perfect pet sitter. She took great care of our cat Anakin during regular visits while ensuring a clear communication, including pictures. She is very quick to answer, very professional and went even beyond our standard requests (feeding, watering, litter cleaning) by playing with Anakin, entertaining him... We have already booked Lizeth again.

We scheduled a visit with Brittany to meet her and have Brittany meet our dog before we left our dog alone with Brittany. Our dog absolutely loved her! She came prepared with a pocket full of treats and loved playing ball outside with our dog. We will definitely be using Brittany again!

I am Uma’s father and so my opinion may be considered biased. Uma is an animal whisperer! This is best told by two anecdotes. On vacation in a village, Folgosinho, in Nothern Portugal Uma petted and talked to a village dog at the cafe in the village center. The dog spent the entire week we were there at the doorstep waiting for her and followed her throughout the village and the vineyards. She was 9 years old. In Hartford she volunteered at the horse farm in Keeny Park. A horse, notorious for being unmanageable got loose from the stable. Uma was the only volunteer who was able to walk up to the horse and bring him back to the stable. She was 15 years old. We have always had German shepards at home, from a very young age Uma cared for them both physically and emotionally! We always knew when Uma got home because of the unique bark of our Shepard!!! Biased I may be, but she is an animal whisperer!!!!

Chris was very reliable even with last minute notice. When our dog didn’t want to walk he still used the time to hang out with him and keep him company. He was very easy to communicate with as well!

We booked with Abigail to take care of our cats on a short weekend trip. She was courteous and professional and took the time to make our cats feel comfortable while we were away. Abigail also sent frequent pictures and updates of our cats to ease our minds and assure us of their quality care. As a result, our cats, Newton and Luna, were calm and joyful on the day we returned. We recommend Abigail for cat sitting and would work with her again for future travel needs.

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.

Ben (Showboater28) would make a great pet caregiver because of his friendly demeanor and easy-going attitude. Never one to be rushed and able to connect with all sorts of dogs, Ben is capable of adapting to the personality and temperament in any situation presented. I would entrust my family's furry member to him anytime.

Kathleen has been a great pet sitter for my Bubbles and Savannah. Bubbles is an active blue heeler that loves to play fetch and requires a lot of attention. Kathleen is great with my energetic love bug and makes sure she gets plenty of excerise. Savannah my older fat cat enjoys snuggles with Kathleen as well.

Glad I booked, would def book with Brianna again. She cared for Marley so well while I was gone, took him for walks, kept me updated with pictures, very communicative. Marley was very comfortable with her and I didn’t worry for a moment. I had some flooding in my basement and she informed me of that as well, much appreciated!
