Emma

Thank you Emma and Mina for a wonderful experience! They weee fantastic every step of the way. Easy to coordinate with, very responsive and did an amazing job at our sit. Our pups were well taken care of and our house was exactly as we left it, plus the addition of welcome home flowers. I highly recommend Emma and Mina for future sits! Thank you both! The boys were clearly well cared for and miss you both! We hope Cleveland is in your future and hope to connect again!

Stephanie Vaughn

Stephanie and Michael took very good care of our dog. They kept us informed with tons of pics!

Nancy

Nancy was great! She was prompt and tidy and kept me well updated during my trip. My dog loved her!

Raven

Raven did an incredible job taking care of my dog and my house. I was nervous about being away for a month but Raven put my mind at ease. She checked in everyday with a cute photo of my dog and an update about how their day went. She followed my house manual perfectly, took my dog on long walks, made herself at home in my neighborhood, and kept my place super tidy. She even kept all my house plants alive and well while I was away. I can’t say enough good things about Raven!

Song

Yizhe was wonderful to work with and showed Carbon a ton of love, would definitely invite him back again.

Kristen

Kirsten is a wonderful young woman who clearly loves animals and is ready to take on any task that the animal needs. She has taken my dog into the woods for long walks, to the beach and to parks. My dog LOVES her and my cat does too. I highly recommend her for taking care of your four-legged family members.

Lisa

Lisa was an incredible petsitter!! She provided great care for our babies while we were gone which included giving our cat medication twice daily and taking our dog on walks. We came back to our house looking just as we left it which we really appreciated as well. I would definitely trust her to watch our babies and home again in the future!!

Andrea

Very reliable, communicative, wonderful sitter. Went above and beyond to take care of one of my dogs who had become quite ill. And left the house in immaculate condition. I highly recommend Andrea.

Erin & Steven

Erin and Steve took great care of the pets and my home. The house was very clean when we got home and Im sure the dogs enjoyed the walks with them. Highly recommend and would welcome back to sit again for sure. Thanks!

Bridgette

This was Bridgette's second time with us! We adore her and she's fantastic with our sweet pup. We're so grateful for her. Your pets and home would be in great hands with Bridgette!!

Deacon

Deacon was a wonderful house guest and pet sitter for Alfie. He was very quick to respond to messages if I had any questions and took excellent care of my furry friend and my house while I was away. Would highly recommend him for future stays!

Mary

Mary (Or Bess) was just fabulous. Responsible, warm, easy to communicate with, great with pets, and someone I just liked a lot. She did a lot of cleaning and helping while I was gone and I would have her back any time! Mary also really took advantage of what there was to do here in Racine, and made use of the space very well. I was very glad to have her here.

Sarah

Alex is simply amazing!!! Having booked my longest trip (2 weeks), I was nervous about leaving my two dogs for so long, but Alex was brilliant. She's a lovely person, and always smiling! My dogs instantly took to her, and she provided me with daily updates and photos at my request! My dogs were well looked after, and so was my home. Alex even did the housework and put fresh bed sheets on for my return. I highly recommend Alex to anyone, and would welcome her back in my home in a heartbeat!
