Lavinia was amazing! She kept us updated throughout the day and sent pics along the way. If she had any questions she did not hesitate to reach out. She was flexible with our travel plans - we extended our stay by an additional day and she was able to accommodate! She even left the most adorable sketch of our fur babies - it is getting framed and hung on the wall! If my dogs could talk I think they would say they loved being with her!!

I'm so thankful that John was able to care for my dog, especially during the holidays! John was very respectful and kind; trying to maintain my dog's daily routine while we were away. My dog can also be a bit difficult in warming up to strangers and with other dogs, but John was great at understanding and working with Wally's behavior. Would recommend John's services at any time!

Nikole was amazing! She house sat our two dogs and even looked after my cats while I was away for the holiday. She sent me pictures and kept me updated the whole time. She even took the pups out to the park which they love. Came home to my house perfect and the dogs happy and calm! She even left a sweet Christmas card, definitely rebooking for future out of town events!

It was the first time we were lea big our 7 yr. Old black lab and our 13 year old beagle for 3 nights. Ronny was willing to do a meet & greet 3 months before and a follow / up “ remember me” visit 2 days before our departure Ronny took notes in a book throughout our 1 st visit so very little had to be reviewed on our 2 nd visit. I truly believe we reviewed more than needed to calm our nerves than what Ronny needed. She was very flexible when some times changed for leaving and offered us reassurance that if we were delayed traveling she could return for an additional walk later in the evening. Both our dogs with 2 different personalities ( lab calm, beagle nervous) took to Ronny’s calm personality. We received continuous texts from Ronny throughout reassuring us all was well with pictures. She followed all our directions as requested. Our home looked just like we had left it upon our return. In fact, the rug a little cleaner as one accident occurred and Ronny wet vac it without us ever mentioning what we do. ! Dependable, flexible and was just what our pets needed for their first “ Home Alone” . Recommend with no reservations.

Nisha was great! Our animals really took to her, she was very detailed and asked lots of questions to ensure she knew what our expectations were and how to care for our pets. She went above and beyond, and did more than we expected (picking up in the yard after the dogs isn’t necessary on our lot!). Will definitely book her again and highly recommend her.

Olivia was an excellent sitter for my pup. She is extremely kind and attentive! My dog was in such great hands and I can’t thank her enough!!!! Olivia kept me updated throughout the weekend which put me at such ease. My house was in spotless condition when I came home and my puppy was resting after an amazing weekend of play! Can’t recommend her enough!

Amazing!!! Could not recommend Morgan highly enough!!! She house and pet sat our dog, quaker parrot, rat, and fish for about a week and did a fantastic job! We recieved frequent updates and pictures, and all of our animals LOVED her (even our very finicky bird!). We did 2 meet-and-greets prior to our trip and Morgan was always on time, polite, and professional. She asked lots of relevant questions and really cared for our pets as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone prompt, professional, and great with animals, Morgan is your person!!!

If I could have, I would've given Candace more stars! She was amazing-not only was she available super last minute, but she also took the time to meet and greet with the dogs and their parents. She allowed us to have a wonderful, stress-free day enjoying Niagara Falls. She was extremely knowledgeable of pet behavior and immediately got along with all four dogs. I 100% would recommend her for in-house sitting, drop-ins and whatever other service she provides. Thank you Candace!!!
