“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“I highly recommend Madilyn. Our plans changed multiple times and she was so understanding and easy to work with. We have 4 dogs, some needier than others and she did amazing with them all and was a great communicator. We will for sure use Madilyn again in the future.”
“Jimmy was an excellent dog sitter reliable, caring, and great with my dogs. He kept me updated while I was away, and I came home to a happy, well cared for dog and house Highly recommend!”
“Jylesha took great care of my pets and my house. She was quick to respond when a sitter here backed out. After meeting her in person, it was clear she was perfect. She understood our hyper pup and bonded quickly with him.”
“Nate does a great job with our very active Aussie mix and takes him on lots of walks! We can tell our pup is very happy and had a great time. Bonus: both times he has stayed overnight he has left the house in perfect condition. We’re grateful to have found him!”
“Stacey and Jeremy stayed with our dog while we were on vacation. Leaving your house and dog to someone else can be a bit stressful, but as soon as I met them my worries went away. While we were gone, they communicated through texts and pictures. This made us all feel better, as it is never easy leaving your dog. After we got home, I could tell my dog had been well cared for. They also took time to make sure our house was clean and ready for our arrival. Overall, we are lucky to have found Stacey and Jeremy. In fact, we have already booked them for our next vacation.”
“We had a great experience with Emma, and will definitely book her again. She spent a lot of time with our dogs, and we appreciated her updates and pictures. The pups definitely did not miss us one bit, and enjoyed long walks with Emma and lots of attention!”
“This is the second time Britney has house sit for us and both have been great experiences. Both my dogs are very happy to have her company when we are away and the house is always spotless when we get back.”
“Jordan took great care of our dogs and Cat and left the house clean like he was never there. He checked in everyday and took great pictures of our animals. Highly recommend.”
“Isabelle and Olivia were wonderful. They took great care of our dogs, and our home, exceeding our expectations and fulfilling our hopes for lots of attention and love. We received updates with pictures and video a couple times a day. We couldn’t be more pleased, and have them booked them again 😃.”
“Alexandra was wonderful with our pet Myla and not only did she take great care of our pet she took great care of our house too and even took care of cleaning the sheets and even taking care of some of our laundry. I highly recommend Alexandra!”
“Jessica was a gem! She was so attentive and responsive to my cats and kept in consistent communication with me while I was away. I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again!”
“Kaelin did a wonderful job taking care of our house and two dogs for six days while we were out of town. She sent pictures daily and seemed to really enjoy her time with the dogs. I recommend her services wholeheartedly!”
“Olivia took such good care of my boys while I was away and sent updates with pictures on every visit!! My two cats had so much fun with her, definitely put my mind at ease while I was gone knowing they were in such good hands!”
“Comfort was a great babysitter. She made sure to always check in when she was taking my dog on walk and how he was doing. Absolutely would book her again to take care of my dog while I’m away!”
“This was my first time having Dawn watch my energetic corgi, Cornbread. Dawn did absolutely amazing with her! Cornbread just loves to play and Dawn gave her plenty of attention while I was away and sent plenty of pictures and videos. She kept me updated each day on Cornbread’s health, that she was fine with eating/staying hydrated, and behaving well. She also brought her dog over so Cornbread would have a friend to play with. Lastly she went above and beyond and left a custom sticker of Cornbread from her visit! Would absolutely love to book again with Dawn!”

Olivia took amazing care of my two cats. I booked with her twice and she was extremely flexible and saved me in watching my cats last minute. My cats absolutely love her. Both of my cats need medicine and she did a great job giving Mr. White his inhaler and Romeo his pill each day. Highly recommend Olivia and will be using her in the future.
Hannah did an amazing job pet sitting our 14-week-old Whippet! From the moment she walked through the door, it was obvious he was going to have fun with her, he liked her right away. Even with all the energy, puppy antics, and biting that come with a young Whippet, she jumped right in and quickly adapted to his needs. We felt completely confident that he was well cared for, exercised, and given lots of attention. It was clear she genuinely enjoys working with dogs, and our puppy had a great time with her. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for puppy and would not hesitate to book Hannah again!
First time leaving my pup with anyone other than family and I couldn't have chosen better than Autumn. She definitely relieved my anxiety over leaving my anxious dog. Autumn took great care of Sheyna, worked on her anxiety while taking her on walks, and sent me updates and pictures twice a day. She also left the house so clean you could hardly tell she'd been here. Sheyna's made a new friend and I've found an amazing sitter for her.
Jordan was more than outstanding. It was the first time in a long time I was able to go on vacation without worrying. Complete transparency on a couple days he knew he’d be out for more than 4 hours, worked with me on a complicated schedule and most of all - PROMPT communication and tons of pics & videos. He went above and BEYOND for my puppy and I was really thankful and impressed by that alone. I would recommend him to anyone and I’m so so grateful I met and was able to trust someone to stay in my home while I was in another country. Thank you Jordan! The animals were clearly so well taken care of and more.
Highly recommend Helena! We have three cats, two of whom require medication for chronic illnesses, and Helena knows exactly how to get them to take their meds. She also gets my female cat to eat all her food, despite the fact that her appetite is waning due to kidney disease. We never worry about leaving our babies in Helena’s care — she’s a pro!
Kira is fantastic. She is super responsive & I trust her with my two big doodles! Kira watched my dogs for Memorial Day weekend and stayed at my house. She is responsible and trustworthy! Kira communicated her schedule for the weekend ahead of time and gave me a heads up so I’m aware of when she is at the house / needs to step out for other drop ins, which is so appreciated! She checked in everyday and gave me a summary of their day & provided photos. I didn’t think twice about the boys while on vacation, because I knew they were in good hands! Thank you so much!
Caroline took excellent care of our dogs and our home. At our meet and greet she was attentive and detailed. During the sit she communicated daily, followed care instructions, and treated our pups like her own. Home was left tidy and doggos very happy. We happily recommend Caroline and would book with her again.
Alison was great! She was so communicative with us. This was our first time leaving our baby with someone else and from the start she just had qualities that made me feel better about doing so. She asked all good questions, was super timely, and overall I was left without any concerns! Thank you Alison for taking such good care of our girl! Our pup is very young right now and can be quite a handful, but Alison seemed to have handled her very well. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.
