1. Kyle J.
“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”

7. Jerica S.
“We needed a Rover pretty last minute and Jerica was able to help us in a pinch! She agreed to a meet up so we could get to know her a little bit and have the dogs interact with her. She didn’t leave our dogs for very long periods of time and let them run around in our backyard constantly! They were some happy girls! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come back to!”
8. Jp B.

17. Brian W.
“Brian was great as a sitter for my pups and my home! I have two pups - one who can struggle with reactivity and another who can be stubborn in her houndy ways - and they were very comfortable with him from their first meeting on! They have never had anyone care for them in the house overnight that they did not already know, so I was nervous, but he did well assessing and responding to their vibes and needs and was excellent in his communication with me. I highly recommend Brian for your dog-walking or house-sitting needs!”

“Katelyn was amazing with my dog, Bella. She treated her like family, ensuring she was happy, well-fed, and loved. I couldn’t have asked for better care!”
19. Jordan C.
“I’ve used Jordan to pet sit my dog and cat multiple times now and know they are always in good hands. My dog has separation anxiety when I leave him, which can make taking care of him more challenging, but Jordan is always patient with his quirks and makes sure he is well taken care of. I will continue to use her for future needs!”
20. Liesel B.
