Katherine

Katherine did an absolute amazing job watching the pets and my house. She left the place in perfect condition, was self sufficient and reliable. and my pups loved her. Would have her back to watch them again anytime!

Phoebe & Emerson

I would happily recommend Phoebe and Emerson to anyone needing a sitter. They were friendly, responsive and cared for our home and animals wonderfully. We had an issue with our shower whilst we were away and they were so patient whilst we got it fixed, which were really grateful for.

Samantha

Prompt, reliable

Victoria

OMG--Victoria was TOTALLY FABULOUS with Olive, and a truly impressive person. Great questions before the sit, updates with photos, and even went above and beyond her duties by cutting the leather-like contents of my newly-arrived bag of sweet potato chews into bite-size pieces! I would be happy to have her sit any time--even when I'm here--since Olive is clearly crazy about her!

Jesna & Khari

Jesna and Khari were great! My pup was well cared for and my apartment was left very clean and tidy. I would definitely use them again!

Sabrina

Sabrina and Lance were outstanding! I loved getting to know them before I left and they had excellent communication with me while I was gone. They are so responsible, considerate, and trustworthy! They loved my dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. One of my dogs is very demanding and that is hard to accomplish over 6 weeks! My dogs absolutely loved them! In addition to remarkable pet care, Sabrina and Lance did fantastic yard work and pool maintenance in the heat of the summer. I came home to a wonderfully clean house, beautiful yard and freshly baked cookies! I highly recommend Sabrina and Lance and hope to have them sit again.

Eric

Eric provided excellent care for the dogs. Sent daily pictures and updates on how the dogs were doing. Responded quickly to a last minute sit request. Communicated effectively on his flight information. Water my plants and overall a friendly guy.

Juliet

Juliet was an excellent sitter for us! She was totally self sufficient, kind, and organized. The apartment looked fantastic when we got back, and our cat was in fantastic condition. We especially appreciated the FaceTime we had ahead of time. We were able to get acquainted and make sure we were all on the same page. She also sent the best pictures.

Jonathan & Marcella

Jonathan and Marcella were great about keeping in touch and very responsive. They communicated regularly which gave me peace of mind and sent pictures/videos of my pups. The house was clean upon my return and they had done everything that I asked of them. They really went out of their way with some things which I greatly appreciated. I felt like they were very responsible and conscientious and I would definitely use them again!

Alia

Alia swooped in at the last minute and made my weekend by being available to sit my three dogs last minute. She was communicative and reliable. I would recommend you choose Alia for your next pet sit, my pets were well cared for by her.

Tayler was great! She was very independent, and my cats were happy and relaxed when I returned.

Elsa

Natalie kept the house super clean and did a wonderful job looking after our two cats!

Holly

Wonderful experience having Hyekyong and Jordi catsit Pi and Laksa. They are organized, reliable, flexible, and clearly very experienced with cats. Hyekyong and Jordi understood that Laksa needs more time to warm up to sitters and they respected her personality. Pi followed them around instantly and you could tell they love catsitting. They were also incredibly helpful as I had just moved into a new apartment and the air con needed some unexpected fixing during their stay. I never worried while I was gone and they sent a perfect amount of photos are updates. I'd highly recommend Hyekyong and Jordi to anybody looking for an excellent catsitting experience. :)
