Sabrina was very communicative, flexible, and okay with my cat’s specific needs. The apartment was clean when I got back and my cat seemed well cared for. Would definitely book her again!

As an over protective dog mom to an anxious and elderly chihuahua I was super nervous to leave him with anyone new. Sev was great at easing my mind and taking great care of him. She sent a lot of photos and comments about how he was doing. He takes medication and needs a little bit of extra love since he is so old and she did fantastic with both. Highly recommend!!

Emma is so great! She has watched our dog Bodie a couple of times now, and she is so reliable and a great communicator. She sends us pictures of Bodie on their adventures, and it really puts my mind at ease knowing that he's having a great time. When I come home he always seems relaxed and happy!

Gabby was great with our large (80+lbs), energetic Boxer. She stayed almost a week, and we came home to a happy, tired dog, and a clean apartment. Gabby was professional, communicative, and respectful; she did a great job caring for both our pup and home!

Paul has been super professional every step of the way. He was prompt in setting up a meet and greet, on time, and communicated well. He also caught my mistake when I initially booked for the wrong days. We received some updates while we were gone, which was appreciated, but most importantly, our girl was clearly well taken care of. She's old and thrives on routine, and she looked like she barely noticed we were gone when we returned. It's really nice to know that she was in great hands. Bonus: I think our apartment was actually cleaner when we returned. 5+ stars.

Allison took great care of my dog and kept me in the loop on how things were going so that I was completely at ease and able to enjoy my time away. She also sent great pictures of their adventures in South Boston! I came home to a happy dog, clean apartment - and she even set my clocks back for Daylight Savings! I would definitely hire Allison for future needs.

We had a great experience with Megan dog sitting in our home. She came over for a meet and greet before the stay and navigated a logistically complicated situation where we had to split the stay between two sitters. Our pup Brodie took to Megan right away. She was able to administer medication to Brodie and sent us wonderful updates all weekend. She even went above and beyond to wash and fold our bedsheets! We’d love to have Megan back to watch Brodie.

Pranida is the absolute best and she exceeded all of my expectations!!! She stayed at my apartment and watched my cat for 1 week and sent several daily updates with plenty of pictures. She even gifted me a beautiful drawing of myself and my cat! You can tell that she is a true animal lover and a super sweet and trustworthy human. I arrived home to a clean apartment and super happy animal. I highly recommend her and hope to use her for pet sitting in the future. Pranida is the best!
