We've been using Melissa for dog walking and just had our first overnight sit with her. She is responsive and communicative throughout the process. She takes great care of my dogs. On her first walk, one of my puppies had explosive diarrhea in his crate, and she stay for at least 30 minutes cleaning him and the crate up. She left out house sit with the house in clean condition. I'm very glad to have found someone reliable to watch/walk our two babies!

It's our second time having Alexandra house sit for us, and she took excellent care of our dog and cat! This time we even asked her to do some extra things, like apply a topical spray to our dog's stomach, and give him pills to treat an infection. Alexandra was amazing, sent updates and photos and took great care of the boys!!

Jenn took great care of our 1.5 year old dog while we were on vacation for ~10 days. She was extremely communicative and sent us pictures several times every day to check in, which was really nice while we were away missing our pup. He's a dog that loves to interact with other dogs, and she took him to the North End dog park every day so he could socialize and play. We even noticed he was more confident at the park when we returned home. She stayed at our apartment, which she left very clean. We highly recommend Jenn to anyone looking for a sitter!

Ian's dog sitting was excellent. He is really knowledgeable on dog behavior, and he's highly personable. My dog, Sully, loved him right away. Ian followed all my instructions and kept me updated as I requested. He also gave Sully lots of love, attention, and companionship-- ultimately going above and beyond regular dog sitting duties. He is my sitter again anytime for Sully in the future.

Colleen was amazing! She spent the weekend with our dog Sage. She sent plenty of updates with tons of pictures. I was a little nervous Sage wouldn't want us to come home. :) They went on lots of walks and did plenty of cuddling. I feel like my house just might have been cleaner than I left it. We are already scheduling our next getaway with Colleen!

We’ve now booked with Audrie twice and she is truly a 10/10 sitter. She stays in our home with our cat and 1-year-old lab, and we always come back feeling like everything was in the best hands. She sends regular updates and photos, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away, and she’s great about flagging anything out of the ordinary right away. What really stands out is how intuitive and genuinely caring she is with animals. Our puppy actually went into heat the night we were coming home, and she stayed a few extra hours to comfort her and make sure everything was okay- that meant so much to us. You can just tell she truly loves what she does. As an added bonus, she leaves the house spotless, which is the best feeling after coming home from a trip. We feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely continue booking with her!

Heaven is absolutely fantastic. My dogs love her, and one of them was an abused rescue dog, so she is very nervous of new people. She loved Heaven right away. My two pugs also instantly felt comfortable with her and she gave them lots of cuddles. We went to Europe for a long time so it was important to is to really trust someone. Out digs have very complicated diets and daily medications. Heaven handled all of that perfectly. She is professional, kind and a great communicator. She is an Awesome pet sitter, and trustworthy in the home.
