David is a great sitter! He was communicative and responsible, and Carly had a great time playing at the park and on her walks with David. I would absolutely ask him to sit again!

Alana was wonderful - she’s responsive during the booking process and followed all the notes we went over during our meet and greet discussion. I have an 11 month old whippet who is a little nervous to be left with a new person, but he warmed right up to her! Alana was very patient and gave lots of updates. Would definitely use her sitting services again.

Lily was great! Came through on a last minute request and was so good with my dog. She also extended her visit to stay with Spiorad when she was acting weird which I so appreciated. We’re going to be repeat customers!

Our family was away for 10 days and Jess took fantastic care of our dog Penny. Penny is a bit standoffish but she cuddled right up to Jess. She took Penny on walks, played with her in the backyard and took her to the park. Would highly recommend.

Camilla stayed with our 2 dogs for 4 nights. I would recommend her,she was great. Took great care of them checked in a few times daily and send pictures which helped a lort while being away. She communicated well and took them on fun walks and boy were they sleepy when we returned...a good sign. Came home to a well taken care house also a big plus. We would surely hire her again.

Sara took wonderful care of Charlie and I would certainly leave him with her again. Even though he can be shy, Charlie took to Sara the first time he met her which put me right at ease. It was easy to communicate with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of them together. When I returned it was obvious that Charlie was well taken care of and that my condo was left as clean and neat as I left it!!

Moose loved his night hanging with Ani! My plans were last minute, so I reached out to Ani only a few hours before needing her. She was quick to respond and very professional. She even came by before to meet Moose and learn some paticulars about him. She was very communicative and send updates often along with pictures. I felt at ease all night and loved the pictures of him. Definitely will be using Ani in the future!

We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Ethan! From the moment we met him, it was clear he truly loves and understands cats. Our furry friend instantly took to him, which is always a good sign! He sent us amazing pictures and videos that felt like little stories - our cat’s own mini adventure series! It was so fun to watch, and you can tell he’s seriously talented at capturing those moments. He even left his backpack behind while he was with our cat and when he had to step out for a few hours, so our cat would feel more secure - such a sweet and thoughtful touch. Our cat was happy and relaxed the whole time, and we felt totally at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Ethan to anyone looking for a cat sitter who truly cares. Can’t wait to book him again!

There isn't a more reliable and dog-savvy person to place your trust in taking care of your fur baby than Christina. She grew up with two Havanese and helps us out watching our third Havanese, a nine month old puppy, at her home in Watertown when we're away. Christina is an extremely level-headed, smart woman with dog whisperer qualities that I know will have you being a repeat client once you try her out!

Halleen was so kind and loving to our dog. We felt so comfortable allowing her to stay at our house. She did such a great job, communicated well and in additions to walking, she took our dog to play at the local park a few times over the weekend. We can’t wait to have her look after our dog again. Fantastic job.
