Sierra did a great job with our crazy dogs and was good at communication. She also sent photos. She took good care of the house while we were gone. She is a kind person, pleasant to work with. I would definitely hire her again! :)

Val was incredible. My sweet pup has heart issues and requires lots of extra attention. Not only did she provide all that to a T, she kept me constantly in the loop via text with pictures, videos, questions if she had them. This was my first time leaving him since he got sick and I felt very good about him being with Val. I’ll definitely be using her again.

Lesa was wonderful! She took great care of our furry friends and stuck to their schedules. She gave our dog long walks and lots of play time at the park. We got regular updates and photos from her! We felt very comfortable that they were well taken care of! She left the house in excellent condition. Would highly recommend!!

Laura was so responsive and wonderful. We had a last minute booking because our dog is having reactivity issues and we felt it was better for her to stay home while we went away for the weekend. Laura responded quickly and we set up a meet and greet for the next day. She showed up on time and our pets immediately took to her. In terms of her stay, she sent at least ten pictures every day and updated me a bunch. As a neurotic dog mom, I really appreciated it! She left the house perfectly clean and frankly made-up the bed way better than I could ever do. I would highly recommend her. She was so respectful to our space and caring to our pets.

Katherine took very good care of our house and dog while we were away! She also checked in with us occasionally while we were gone, sending photos of our dog happy at our home with her. I definitely recommend her and we will hopefully have the opportunity to have her come back again soon!

Kristin helped me out last minute with a housesitting gig over the holidays and was great with my nervous pup. Having an anxious dog can make leaving home stressful sometimes, but Kristin did an awesome job of making both me and my dog Harris comfortable with her staying in our home. I would recommend Kristin to any of my friends and will definitely try to book with them for future travels.

Thank you, Donovan, for staying with Peggy at my house! Peggy can be a bit vocal at times and Donovan was very patient with her as she got to know him. I really appreciated all the clear communication up front and having our meet and greet allowed us to align on all the details. It made being out of town a lot easier knowing that Donovan was taking care of Peggy.

Erin overnight sat for our three dogs and was wonderful with them. We have one older pup, one that’s a little nutty and one that is anxious when we leave town – she was great with them all. We got regular updates on how they were doing, and she was quick to respond with texts and pictures when we checked in. They were very loved and cared for and we felt more than comfortable having her in our home. We are so happy we found Erin!

Yesenia did a wonderful job taking care of my dog and cat in my home while I was away for a week recently. My pets warmed up to her immediately and she gave them no shortage of cuddles, attention, and treats while she was there. I greatly appreciated the all the photos and great communication as well as the care and respect my house itself. I would definitely recommend Yesenia as a petsitter for anyone in the area!

Laura is fantastic! We had never used Rover before and we are so grateful that we connected with Laura. She and our dog, Jinx, hit it off right away. She kept us posted on how things were going with texts and photos. We returned to a happy, well-fed, and relaxed pup! We will definitely use Laura again.

Kay is a kind, down to earth, gentle person. Our two dogs were well loved and cared for while we were gone. She is responsive and detail oriented which eased my mind upon our departure . In addition to care of our pups, I can recommend Kay as a fabulous House Sitter. She went above the call of duty making sure our return home was seemless and welcoming. Our dogs and home were happy and healthy under Kay's care. Thank you Kay!
