Brooke did such a great job taking care of our two doggos, Moose & Honey during a long weekend! She sent us updates, pictures, and made sure to snuggle them up. It was very obvious when we came home that they were both being well taken care of when we were gone, We look forward to reaching out again for future trips! Thank you Brooke!

Katherine took very good care of our house and dog while we were away! She also checked in with us occasionally while we were gone, sending photos of our dog happy at our home with her. I definitely recommend her and we will hopefully have the opportunity to have her come back again soon!

Stefany was great with our pup- as a reactive dog, we are very careful about who we let watch him. Stefany was professional and took good care of him.

We booked Lesa for a 10 day sit and she took the best care of our boy, Banjo! We had never left Banjo before so we were a little nervous about how he would do. Lesa made sure to take care of his basic needs like food, water, and walks but she went above and beyond caring for his emotional needs. He got tons of attention and cuddles every time she visited. Lesa was great at communication and sent tons of pictures while we were away. She definitely made it easier to enjoy our vacation because we knew Banjo was being well taken care of.

Thank you, Donovan, for staying with Peggy at my house! Peggy can be a bit vocal at times and Donovan was very patient with her as she got to know him. I really appreciated all the clear communication up front and having our meet and greet allowed us to align on all the details. It made being out of town a lot easier knowing that Donovan was taking care of Peggy.

Kristin helped me out last minute with a housesitting gig over the holidays and was great with my nervous pup. Having an anxious dog can make leaving home stressful sometimes, but Kristin did an awesome job of making both me and my dog Harris comfortable with her staying in our home. I would recommend Kristin to any of my friends and will definitely try to book with them for future travels.

Janet was wonderful! She took great care of our dogs, who were both feeling poorly. She gave them their medicine and provided updates during the day. They both seemed very happy to have stayed in their home while we were away, and she was a thoughtful house guest. We would love to have her back!

Sabrina is a great house/pet sitter! She sent updates every morning, gave our (2) senior dogs their daily medications (it's a lot), and made sure they were safe and loved while we were out of town. We would love to have Sabrina watch our dogs again.

Brianna was amazing! She house sat my senior cat, Freddy, while I was out of town for a week, and I’ve never been happier with a sitter. Brianna sent pictures and updates every day, and it was obvious she was really making an effort to engage with Freddy. He’s usually shy with strangers, so the fact that he was relaxed with her is such a testament to her pet loving personality. I was stressed about being gone for so long, but now I feel reassured with Brianna and will definitely be hiring her in the future!

Kay is a kind, down to earth, gentle person. Our two dogs were well loved and cared for while we were gone. She is responsive and detail oriented which eased my mind upon our departure . In addition to care of our pups, I can recommend Kay as a fabulous House Sitter. She went above the call of duty making sure our return home was seemless and welcoming. Our dogs and home were happy and healthy under Kay's care. Thank you Kay!

Courtnei spent 5 days looking after Bentley in out home, a 108 LB Golden Retriever, that is very needy for attention. She spent the night and feed him each morning and evening and returned to walk him in the middle of the day. I would highly recommend her care for any large dog like Bentley.

Shannon watched my 4 month old, large breed puppy for 6 days. I was anxious about leaving him since I have only had him since April and am a new dog mom. I’m so grateful for Shannon. She sent multiple text updates a day, is a good communicator, and reinforced his training. I appreciate her feedback. My pup was walking better on a leash after his time with her ?. She took good care of my place too, and I came home to a clean room and linens.
