Paige and Vijay took great care of our 1.5 year old pitbull while we went away for a long weekend. They sent many pictures and messages to keep us updated, and were very responsive. Our pup came home happy and very tired! Would definitely recommend!

Beau’s first stay with Hannah went really well! She provided regular updates and he came home happy and tired. She even accommodated us by keeping him an extra few hours because our trip home was delayed. Thanks Hannah for taking such great care of Beau for us!

Kevin was a fantastic caregiver for my pup. Great communication, very responsive, lots of pictures, and clearly comfortable with dogs and their ways. Very detail oriented and wonderful written updates. Most importantly, he clearly cared about my dog, not just for my dog. Would book again without hesitation.

While he stayed, she was very present with him with walks, playing, etc and sent LOTs of pictures and detailed updates! We felt so at ease having him there and will absolutely use her again.

Arnav was a great sitter for Snoopy. Snoopy loved staying with Arnav and his family. They even took Snoopy to Starbucks to get him a pup cup. Arnav sent me pictures of Snoopy every day while I was away, and I could tell from the pictures that Snoopy was super happy at Arnav's house. If I decide to leave Snoopy in someone's care again, I won't hesitate to contact Arnav.

Nalix is amazing with our dog Charcoal, who is usually very sensitive and has separation anxiety. We trust her completely and Nalix sends regular photos and videos in which Charcoal is having the best time. Nalix is always communicative and willing to be flexible if we are running late from delayed flights or traffic. We recommend Nalix wholeheartedly!

Yu is a wonderful cat sitter and I’d highly recommend her. Our cat had little experience with people outside family before but Yu managed to put him at ease quickly. In no time he was playing and exploring surroundings. Yu updated us consistently with photos and videos, which I did not expect but certainly appreciated. Yu responded to messages promptly and was very accommodating. I am looking forward to using her services in the future.

About: I love animals, I have lived with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles and bunnies my entire life. My dog died a couple years ago and last cat passed away about a year ago. I miss having pets at the house. I also have dog training certificate from Animal Behavior College. I promise to treat your pet as my own while also following your instructions since you know your pet best :) I am currently not working and will have plenty of time to take care of your pet and keep them company, be it cuddling on the couch or playing catch outside We have a fully fenced in back yard and live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of places to explore on walks and even runs for willing participants

About: I am ready and excited to do whatever your dog likes to do, whether it's exercising with a long walk, playing fetch, or relaxing while I give them a belly rub. I grew up with 2 dogs and have experience pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and colleagues over the years. I have never met a dog I didn't get along with; they seem to recognize that I am a dog person and really want nothing more than to make their tails wag. I am currently in nursing school in a mostly online program, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I currently have no pets and would love to hang out with your dog(s)! I’m currently in nursing school and my program is mostly asynchronous online, so my schedule is pretty flexible overall. In the fall, my clinical days will be Thursday and Friday from 7-1, so I will only be available in the afternoon on those days. I live in a pet-friendly apartment across the street from a grassy yard area and near residential areas good for walks. I love going for long walks (especially with a dog pal!) but am always able to adjust for whatever your dog needs.

My Wilson (Weimaraner) had a great 4-night stay with Sean and his dog, Remi. Sean is true dog lover and Wilson felt really comfortable and safe with him almost instantly (which is not a given with Wilson) at our meet and greet. Sean’s photo and video updates from their walks and hikes reassured me that Wilson was really well cared for. This was the first time I had someone take care of Wilson other than my friends, and I think I might have just hit the jackpot with Sean and Remi. I would highly recommend Sean and will employ his services again next time I need to travel for work.

She’s incredibly responsible and someone you can always count on. While I don't have pets myself, I would absolutely trust her with mine if I did.
