Madeline has stayed with Harley multiple times now, and she’s been incredibly attentive to his needs, communicative about how he’s doing, and flexible. She’s an awesome sitter that I’m glad Harley and I can rely on!

Melina was a huge help in a pinch when my sitter cancelled. She was attentive and sweet with my pup and sent many pictures and updates throughout the day! Would love to have her help again and recommend her greatly!

Tea stayed in our home while we went on a 5 day vacation and took excellent care of our dog. We received communication, updates, and photos each day which was much appreciated since we are always nervous having a new sitter in our home.

Lauren was excellent! She took great care of our two dogs for 4 days and shared plenty of updates with us the whole time, which we really appreciated. She spent a lot of quality time with them just hanging out, and gave our high energy pup lots of ball time to tire her out. We definitely recommend her!

Charlii took fantastic care of our dog, Finn. He's a sweet but high energy and anxious border collie. It was our first long trip without him and we were a bit nervous about how he would do. There was no need to worry. He absolutely adored Charlii and they had so many adventures together. Charlii sent so many pictures and videos, we were jealous of all the fun they were having! Thank you, Charlii.

Anais did an amazing job of taking care of my dog and two kittens while we were out of town. She sent me photos, kept me informed with regular updates of how everyone was doing, and even noticed a potential health issue that I am having checked out. Can’t recommend her enough!

Katie was amazing with my dogs. One had had a dental 24 hours before and needed supervision and meds. She was also with them over 4th of July, and as you other dog pawrents know, it’s a scary time to be away from your pups. After meeting Katie briefly prior to the visit I felt so safe leaving them in her care. She left the place clean and well taken care of. Kind, conscientious, trustworthy and fabulous with dogs!

Ann Marie cared for our senior cat, Kitty Perry, for quite some time before we moved out of Philly. Ann Marie was always prompt, and spent extra time with our special man while we were out of town. Ann Marie was always incredible at providing us with updates, and actually waived a red flag that our cat might be losing his hearing (a vet visit soon after confirmed he was going deaf!) Kitty Perry crossed the rainbow bridge in September, but he lived a wonderful 17 years and was well taken care of by Ann Marie whenever we left town. Your fur baby will be in great care with Ann Marie!

We loved having Grey housesit! We have border collie mixes and although they’re older they like to go out to play frisbee and sniff around at least once a day. Usually 20 minutes is enough and Grey was dedicated in finding the time despite some inclement weather. We received a ton of pictures and Grey was very communicative regarding the girls and our cat, Mordecai’s spirits. He was very accommodating regarding packages, thoughtful about our neighbors, and we came home to sweet smelling puppies and a clean house. An absolute pleasure! Would highly recommend and will be looking to book him on our next trip out of town (:

Sam house and pet sat for us when our regular dog sitter was no longer available. We have one pup who is very skittish and we have not had good luck leaving her. She loved Sam immediately! Sam sent us pictures of daily walks, kept our home beautifully, and baked us cookies on our return. I cannot recommend him enough. Fabulous!

Temitayo is an excellent dog sitter! He cares for my pup Sterling as if he is his own. He sticks to all Sterling’s routines, gives him tons of pets, and plays with him safely. Temitayo also sends photo updates of Sterling (which I love) and lets he me know how he is doing. Sterling loves when he gets to see Temitayo. I often joke that Temitayo is Sterling’s best friend! Thank you, Temitayo!

First time using Jay and they were great! We have a 12 week old puppy and a 13 year old pug. They took super good care of both dogs, followed instructions well, and were super respectful of our home…they even washed our bedding and towels before we got home! Communication from the very beginning all the way to the end was great… we received so many cute photos of the dogs which gave us comfort knowing they were getting lots of attention while we were away. We 100% would recommend Jay and book them again!
