1. Regan G.

“I leave Regan with my highest recommendation! She took care of our many farm animals in addition to our house pets. She did an excellent job following all my directions and everyone is happy, healthy and clean upon our return. Regan communicated with me very well while we were away and sent pictures and updates and asked questions as needed. I am very grateful to have found such a wonderful pet/farm sitter.”


2. Kayla S.

“Absolutely went above and beyond. Bought extra toys and treats for the pets. The dogs were all played out when we arrived. The house was way cleaner than how we left it. Couldn't recommend more”


3. Michael K.
“Michael loves animals and is able to make even the most shy or afraid creatures trust him. He and his wife are terrific dog parents. I would like to be Michael's dog, or be one in his care because he is experienced, gentle, and responsible. He even made friends with my son's 'Touch Me Not' cats. Something I still have not accomplished!”


4. Jillian L.

“Jillian took great care of our two dogs, and treated our home with respect as well, while staying over. Jillian is super kind, responsive, and great with dogs. We definitely will be hiring her again. Thanks, Jillian!”


5. Jade M.

“Jade was wonderful! She followed all of our instructions and made us feel extra comfortable being away from our pup who was experiencing some anxiety!”


6. Angelina T.

“Angelina was terrific! She took great care of my doggies, left my house as clean as it was when I left, and asked great questions beforehand and during her stay. Highly recommended!”


7. Thomas W.

“I had an above and beyond experience with Thomas watching my pups for a couple days. I would definitely say he was exceptional choice for us. Will absolutely be hiring again!”


8. Laura S.

“I have known Laura my entire life. She enjoys the company of all animals. She has done pet caregiving for numerous households and families. She is reliable, and very kind and compassionate. Your animals are sure to love her and trust her, as well as you. Get ahold of Laura for your pet sitting needs, and she'll be glad to help.”


9. Hannah C.
“Hannie is the best. She lets me sniff everything and explore. When I want to run, she runs with me and when I am the goodest girl, she gives me an extra scratch and a treat. We have the best conversations about the squirrels and the birds. She even teaches me how to jump over things, under things and goes in the water with me. When we go for a car ride to get to the best sniffing spot, she hooks me in just like my mom does. She also knows how to give the best scratches. When I'm a little cranky, she takes me home and we curl up for a nap. I know she likes my kisses and she even runs zoomies with me when I get excited! Hannie is the best and I get so excited to see her. She even cleans up after me and doesn't make a fuss!”


10. Cindy F.

“Cindy is amazing! 100% would recommend her. Cindy was such a lifesaver for us by watching my dog, Tayto, for a night on short notice while we were visiting Vermont. It was the biggest relief and comfort knowing that Tayto was in such good hands with Cindy. She loved and cared for him so well, and I am so grateful. I wish we lived closer so Cindy could always be our dog sitter! Kind, wonderful, and shared lots of great photos. Thank you, Cindy!”


11. Haley C.

“Haley was great with our dog Noelle. She provided updates throughout the day of her time with Noelle, and was very communicative and responsive. We would definitely book with Haley again!”


12. Zachary B.

“Zachary is, hands down, the best dog walker we have ever hired. He is a true dog lover and cares deeply for every dog, including his own. On one occasion, Zach even drove our dog to the Vet, when our dog wasn’t feeling well. He goes above and beyond for each dog in his care. I highly recommend Zach as a doggie caregiver.”


13. Alicia B.
“Alicia was great with our 2 dogs. I could tell from the pictures they were having a great time.”


14. Cristina K.
“Cristina is everything you would ever want in a caregiver for your pet. Not only is she kind and loving but she has a tremendous amount of knowledge of dogs' behaviors and needs gleaned from her own study, from participation in classes taught by renowned trainers and from years of hands on experience with her own dogs. You can be 100% confident that she will be reliable and will go to great lengths to provide exceptional service.”


15. Mollie M.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little kid! I have experience with pets of all types, ages & personalities. Friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed & housesit for their animals. I work full time time job but I have most mornings free. My schedule rotates so I would not be able to have the same availability every week, but please reach out with dates & times! I would love to make something work. I can come to your house and walk your dog. If you are interested in an overnight board at my house the dog would have to be good with my 15lb poodle mix & two cats. It would be ideal that the dog comes with a crate to stay in, as my dog is crated as well when we are out of the house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live near a dog park, and in a nice spot to walk dogs.


16. Joseph K.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life & recently got a belgian. I will take any breed of dog as long as they’re not dog aggressive. I’m currently on medical leave from work because I had brain surgery. So I am constantly walking my Belgian around town and have all the free time in the world. I am also looking for regular clients so that I can make this full-time! I have a large dog crate if your pet needs to be crated. Or room to put a personal crate. Though I don’t have a yard, there is a dog park in walking distance of my apartment & safe neighborhoods to walk in. **I offer discounts to regular clients (2 days/week)**


17. Chrishanna W.
“I can’t express how wonderful Chrishanna was to help me and watch Jack while I had to go away. And my cats as well. Jack just loves Chrishanna, she took the time to give love, cuddles and play with Jack. He just loves her. Even my kitties came out to get love and cuddles with Chrishanna. She is dependable and wonderful with all the animals!!! They are ready for her to come back soon!!! And me too!!”
