She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.

Brittany has been walking our pups and house sitting for the last year and a half and she is simply the best! We have a large, energetic dog and a tiny, yippy-yappy dog; she handles them both so well. When our big dog got scared during a thunderstorm, she wrapped him in blankets and snuggled with him to calm him down. She is responsive, reliable, and friendly. We are sad to leave C'ville because it will be hard to find another sitter like Brittany!

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

Jordan was so sweet and took great care of my 2 doodles! I’ve never used a pet sitter before and Jordan was able to come do a meet and greet to make sure the pups and I were comfortable. She sent me daily pictures and updates. I highly recommend Jordan and will definitely be using her again in the future! :)

I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.

Kayli did a wonderful job taking care of our girls while we were out of town. She provided regular updates and pictures and reached out when she noticed one of our dogs was chewing at her paw. It was just some mild irritation, but I appreciated her paying close attention to our dogs and letting me know there was a possible issue. I'd use her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Jonathan was a *wonderful* sitter! We have an 8-month old kitten who needs lots of playtime, and Jonathan was reliable, confident, and reassuring. He hit it off with Bowie right away, and came up with lots of fun ways to keep him entertained. Jonathan sent us plenty of photos, and we came home to a happy and relaxed cat and a clean house. We'd certainly book with Jonathan again!

I have known Alexander L. for many years. In that time he and his family have owned 3 dogs. I have seen him interact with them in a kind and gentle way. He is very responsible with them. He is calm and very eager to help walk, feed or play with them. He has taken care of my dogs when I have been away. I would highly recommend him as a pet sitter/dog walker. Kristin L.

Lee jumped in and helped housesitting my dog and cat while I was out of town. He was great! I got daily updates with photos (always appreciated). My cat and dog were both well loved and well taken care of. He was quick to respond and always asked questions. Would definitely have him watch my fur babies again when I'm out of town!

Gabriel B is a kind, friendly, responsible young man who would make a wonderful pet sitter or dog walker. He has watched my dog and I leave him knowing that he will be very well taken care of. Gabriel’s love for animals is evident and anyone would be lucky to have him take care of their pet.
