I recently moved to the area and feel so lucky that we found Rebecca! She took our dog on adventures and also gave her lots of snuggles. Our dog looked so happy in the photo updates that our family joked she was having her own staycation and didn’t want us to come home. Rebecca is kind, considerate and somebody we would definitely trust to take care of our dog again. She’s fantastic!

Nichole was amazing! Great communication and gave us plenty of pics while we were gone to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We’d definitely like to have her be our regular sitter.

Sade quickly became our two dogs best friend!! She was so great with the dogs, followed all of our instructions, took great care of the house, and had great communication and photos. What more could you ask for?! Would highly recommend working with her and we’ve already re-booked with her because she’s so great!

Highly recommend Tori for you pet needs. She is extremely prompt in her responses. She sent pictures of the pets on her arrival to our home and then daily. She even sent a video. Our dog can be very nervous around new people but took right to Tori, putting our minds at ease while we were way. We will definitely be booking her again in the future.

Jessica just watched my furbaby for the first time and it was wonderful to receive many detailed updates and photos. She was direct, so kind, and left my home looking exactly as she found it. Most importantly, Coco was happy and healthy when I returned! Ernie (Jessica's adorable pup) did a great job socializing with Coco, as a nice bonus. Would happily use Jessica again in the future!

Stacey was absolutely amazing with our two boys. She took them for walks and loved on them while we weren’t able to. She was very communicative and sent us pictures and videos of how happy the boys were. When we came home, she had left the house cleaner than when she arrived. I cannot give her enough stars!

I used Nathan’s services when I went out of town for two days and one night for a business trip. Nathan was very prompt with communication, took my dog out for walks right on schedule, and was easy to work with. I live in a apartment building that’s a bit of a hassle to get inside and to the apartment unit due to their security, and he worked well with that. Will use Nathan again.

Becca was a fantastic dog sitter. She stayed with my 11-week-old pug puppy for the day in my apartment. You could tell she loves dogs and asked great questions about his routine and preferences. It was comforting knowing that he was well cared for while I was at work and could stay in his routine at home.  I would definitely recommend Becca and would rebook with her.

Randy is reliable, caring, professional, and responsible. He is a joy to work with and is thoroughly dedicated to the care and protection of your pet. I have known him for more than 15 years and have trusted him on several occasions to care for my home and my most cherished family members, my dogs Jack and Shelby. Jack is a 5-year-old, 50lb, lab/pit mix with a distaste for mailmen. Shelby is a 1-year-old, 70lb, St. Bernard/Husky mix with a literal taste for remote controls and dirty socks. Both adore Randy and long for the day when he will return to dogsit again. I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Randy for the care and well-being of your pet.

Madison was a great house sitter. She communicated well and sent daily updates. She left the house sparkling clean and neat. She provided peace of mind as Milo is an elderly dog and needs some extra attention. I would definitely hire her again, but she’s so popular, you’ve got to book far in advance!
