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!

Timo is the best sitter we could ask for. Our cats love him so much and we know Timo really cares for them as if they’re his own. Timo also keeps us at ease by sending many photos and updates about the boys while we are away. And we always come back to a clean house and happy cats! Can’t recommend him enough!

Emily was great! She was very communicative and helpful. It was easy to set up a meet and greet and our cat got comfortable with her quickly. Our cat and our house were well cared for. Would definitely ask her to sit again!

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 amazing to work with and she was amazing with Ruxin. He gets so nervous when we leave on a trip, and we came home this time to see him full of smiles, tail wagging. She loved on him well, and went above and beyond. We'll be getting a hold of Leslie again soon!

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.

Allison was a great house and pet sitter. She provided regular updates and when I got home my apartment was clean and my doggy was happy. My dog is reactive which makes me nervous when I leave her with sitters but Allison was reassuring and I was glad Mae had no issues.

Navya did a wonderful job caring for my puppy who is quite a handful! I appreciate that she kept me informed as to how the pup was doing and sent me photos. I felt very comfortable that my puppy was appropriately cared for the five nights I was gone. THANK YOU!

Knowing our high maintenance pup was with Sarah was such a relief! She sent updates throughout the night with great pics, followed all of our instructions, and kept our senior dog comfortable and happy! I feel so lucky we found Sarah! She has set a high bar for future dog sitters!

Mia is the best dog sitter Mia and Archie could have hoped for! She stayed in our home with the dogs for 10 days and followed all of our instructions exactly, going above and beyond by providing updates (and adorable photos/videos!) multiple times each day — which made it easier to relax on vacation knowing the dogs were in such good hands. It became clear that Mia is not only responsible and trustworthy, but a true dog lover (and they loved her back!). She also offered to water our plants, brought in our packages for us, and left the house near and tidy for our return. We will definitely plan to reach out to Mia to care for our dogs again next time we travel. :)

Anne is the best! She takes such good care of Cora, spends a great deal of quality time with her, sends us frequent updates, and even took her on some fun hiking adventures! It's wonderful to know how well taken care of and happy our girl is while gone. I highly recommend Anne for your pup!
