“Sam was an incredible puppy sitter. This is our first puppy so I am overly cautious with her. Within the first thirty minutes of us leaving, sam sent us a plethora of photos and updates, leaving my heart at ease. She updated us very frequently with updates and cutesy photos of our girl. She let us know her overall report when we came home, and watched her to make sure she has no separation anxiety with us. It was such a relief to have her, and I will absolutely be using sam again.”



“We’ve used Annie before and I’m so happy to know that my dogs have someone loving to care for them when we’re gone! You can tell she really loves dogs and gives each of my boys the attention and love they need. Will continue to use her for all family travel!!”


“Shannon watched our two huskies and stayed in our home while we were away for a weekend. She took excellent care of our home, collected our mail, and took the best care of our Doggos. She sent several picture updates of our dogs which helped immensely. We will definitely use her in the future and highly recommend her to others!”

Olena I.
“I’m writing this letter with zero hesitation (and a small army of furry friends cheering me on) to recommend Olena for any pet-sitting, animal-watching, or general creature-loving role. I was lucky enough to be both a customer and a witness to her incredible ability to bond with animals. She cared for my cat while I was away, and the experience was seamless. She was attentive, respectful of the space, and followed every instruction I left. My cat was calm and well looked after when I returned, which speaks volumes about her presence and the way animals respond to her. On top of her animal care skills, she’s a gifted photographer. She took a photo set of me and my cat that I genuinely treasure. Pictures came out absolutely incredible! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and capable, I definetelly recommend Olena. Your pets will be in excellent hands.”
