We have used Rachelle a few times now. Twice for day trips and most recently for several days and over nights. My animals bonded with her instantly. Even my cat that’s can not be bothered to like anyone loves Rochelle. I never worry about them when she’s with them. She seems to really care about the animals. Beyond that she leaves my apartment as she found it no matter how much I tell her to make herself at home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!

Navya is incredible. We've had her stay at our house a couple times already. She does an incredible job of not only taking care of our dogs but also our home. She leaves it in better condition than when we left! She updates you regularly on what is going on. For example , a snowstorm hit while she was sitting and she shoveled our front and back yards. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

Erica was great! Our dog immediately warmed up to her so we knew he would be in great hands. Erica was very responsive over the app, sent pics and updates, and was a super respectful houseguest as well.

Timothy was the perfect sitter for my boy Marvin! You know they had a great week together when your dog is crying and looking all over the house for Timothy when he left! I knew he was in good hands based on the pictures and updates. Timothy also was the perfect house guest, looking after all my things, following my instructions, and ensuring everything was clean and orderly upon my return! So very pleased, he is now my definite go-to caretaker!

Casey was wonderful! We know our dog is in good hands with her. Our dog got an ear infection the day we were supposed to leave for our trip and Casey was super helpful with administering the medication and keeping us updated.

Mia was the best! It was the longest I had left my 14 year old doggo - 2 weeks overseas in a very different time zone. She sent updates every day and Carlos (my dog) seemed so, so happy and content. Mia left everything clean and tidy - I will definitely be booking her again!

Elise has helped care for our pets (cats, dog, hamster) for about 20 years. She is kind, responsible, caring, knowledgable, and has a distinct ability to communicate with all kinds of animals. She has a huge heart, into which animals roam freely, and she cares for them. You can utterly and absolutely trust her to care for your pet conscientiously and selflessly.

Alona watched over my two dogs while I was away on a work trip, and she was great with communicating/sending updates with cute pictures. She was also flexible and understanding when timing needed to change a little, and asked great questions during our neet and greet. Definitely would recommend her and will be asking her to stay with them again!

Leslie was wonderful! She was so attentive and doting on Buster. She was very transparent with her arrival and departure times and sent us photos and videos throughout the weekend updating us on Buster and how he was doing! We were very hesitant to leave Buster, but after a few hours with Lelise and her attentiveness, I became more comfortable with the process. She is truly the best and we cannot wait to use her again! Buster let her 'into his pack' which is hard to do, but it just goes to show what a great and trusting person she really is!

Mark was great with our dogs! Took them all around town, and spent some time to win over our nervous younger dog. He took fine pup pictures as well. He took good care of the house.

I could not recommend Ann G. more! She watched my 8 month old puppy for 4 days and did an amazing job! She took my pup on many long walks and texted me updates/pics all the time. She was very communicative, gave my pup plenty of socialization, and was in tune with his needs. If you need someone to watch you dog, you definitely want Ann G.
