1. Dana L.

“Dana did a great job watching Sophie for a week! I came home to a tidy home and a happy dog. She provided frequent updates and made it clear that Soph was well cared for.”


2. Allie R.


“Allie did a great job with our two high medical needs dogs (one has diabetes and the other has hip dysplasia) plus our two cats. She sent a ton of photos and was able to get our picky eater to eat most of her meals. The house was clean when she left and she took our trash bins to the curb on trash day. Overall a great sitter.”


3. Isaac L.

“Isaac took great care of my dogs and my home while I was away! He was very communicative and intuitive throughout the process. I will definitely be booking with him again and highly recommend his services!”


4. Olivia F.


“Olivia is amazing! She was extra considerate with our older dog and medicine, took wonderful care of our home and was so thorough. Wonderful communication, she’ll be our regular! Highly recommend.”


5. Lynn B.

“Lynn is amazing! She stayed with my two dogs when I went out of town and was so respectful of my routine and my home. She made sure to ask all the right questions, treated my pups like her own, and sent me all the pictures. My dogs were so happy and calm when I returned home. I would highly recommend Lynn to take care of your dogs!”


6. Justin G.


“Can’t say enough good things about Justin… communication was great, he was thoughtful about logistics and flexible as we figured out key hand off and meeting our two dogs. I’m certain the house was cleaner than we left it for him. After a long, long travel day it was wonderful to come home to a clean house and two happy dogs. Thank you so much Justin!!”


7. Kristy N.

“2nd time that Kristy looked after our girls. It was an overnight rover and she made sure to keep us updated and followed all of our instructions. We felt calm and safe that she could take care of our pups which is a great feeling. Would book again!”


8. Sarah F.

“Sarah was fantastic! She spent a full day caring for my 11-week-old Labrador puppy, Loam, and did an amazing job. She followed my schedule to a T, providing thoughtful updates throughout the day, and made sure Loam received incredible attention and care. I especially appreciated that she took the extra step to check in and confirm the correct method for crating and sleep—asking before intervening, which shows how attentive and responsible she is. Loam was clearly comfortable and happy in her care, and I can’t wait to have Sarah back again soon!”


9. Lisa B.

“Lisa was communicative and responsive about Pepper and the two appear to have got along fabulously. Like I don’t think my dog missed me at all. I felt really comfortable knowing she was taking care of my dog in my home. I plan to request her services again very soon.”


10. Deven N.

“Deven did a fantastic job caring for our 12 year old pup, Jelly. We received regular photo updates (of a very happy Jelly) and great communication from Deven. Deven is thoughtful, kind, and someone we trust to take care of our sweet girl anytime!”


11. Angie Sue R.

“Angie Sue took great care of our dogs, cat, and chickens while we were away. She was very communicative and made our pets feel so loved. We have an anxious dog who doesn’t always do well with strangers and he adored her. She sent frequent updates and made sure the dogs got long walks. We rested easy knowing everyone was well cared for!”


12. Mitchell T.

“Mitchell went out of his way to deal patiently with our rescue pup who had trouble adjusting to our absence. He responded promptly to messages and kept us updated while we were away. He took good care of our dogs and I recommend him!”


13. Kaytlin L.

“Kaytlin is a cat whisperer! She took wonderful care of our cat (Gizmo) for 8 nights. Gizmo requires a lot of human interaction/stimulation and Kaytlin came up with creative ways to play with her to keep her interested, had a lot of quality snuggle time with her, and managed to get her harness on to spend quality outdoor time throughout the week. This can be challenging because Gizmo loves spending time outdoors but can be very resistant when trying to put her harness on, so I was thrilled she persevered! Kaytlin sent the BEST photos of them spending time outdoors, playing, and cuddling. I've never seen Gizmo warm up to a cat sitter the way she warmed up to Kaytlin :-) Kaytlin also responded quickly to all messages so we felt very comfortable that Gizmo was well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Kaytlin for cat sitting.”


14. Jenna R.

“Jenna did a great job caring for our two girls and house in our absence. Our girls can be a bit high energy but Jenna didn’t seem to struggle. Our mail and packages were stacked neatly where requested and even our backyard was clean on return (something many of our other dog sitters have neglected). Will definitely book Jenna again.”


15. Theresa B.


“Theresa was a wonderful dogsitter for our 3-month old puppy. She was communicative, responsible, and took great care of our fur baby. We would absolutely work with her again.”


16. Tassia C.


“Tassia did a great job and rolled with some unexpected excitement in my building, and kept me up to date regularly! Will definitely book her again. Thank you!!”


17. Amy C.


“Amy did such a phenomenal job with my pup, she was understanding of my dog’s leash pulling and was very open and communicative about my dog’s needs and sending me updates. She also washed and changed my sheets so I came home to a clean house! Will absolutely be using her anytime she’s available!”


18. Sabrina & Daniel S.


“This may sound ridiculous, but if you want folks to love your animals like they are their own, snag these two before their schedule books up. Lovely folks and equally reliable.”


19. Machele M.

“Machele is the best. She takes amazing care of our cats, sends several pictures every day, and leaves our house sparkling clean. She also genuinely loves and cares for the animals and it really shows! Thank you Machele!”


20. Hayley B.
“Hayley has watched my 3 cats multiple times. She is responsible and is clearly a lover of all animals. She sends pictures and cleans up after my cats. She’s a great pet sitter and I highly recommend her.”
