Your pet stays in your home as a reliable pet sitter drops in feed and play with them
Anna was very professional and took excellent care of our 2 dogs, 2 kittens, a turtle, and our house. Her communication was prompt and she sent lovely pictures of our pets.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely wonderful sitter — went above and beyond! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our beagle Ollie over Halloween weekend! From start to finish, she was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, communicative, and caring. It was immediately clear that Ollie wasn’t just being watched; he was genuinely loved and cared for like family. She sent us tons of wonderful photos and even personalized videos of Ollie throughout the weekend, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He was clearly having a fantastic time with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. We especially appreciated how proactive she was about communicating, asking thoughtful questions and clarifying details ahead of time to make sure she understood Ollie’s needs and routine. She also administered all of his medications and supplements perfectly and right on schedule, which we really appreciated. As if all of that weren’t enough, she left Ollie a sweet Halloween-themed goodie bag, such a thoughtful and personal touch that showed just how much care she put into the experience! She also left our home absolutely spotless and in perfect condition. It’s rare to find someone who is so reliable, detail-oriented, communicative, and genuinely loving toward your pet. We felt completely comfortable knowing Ollie was in such wonderful hands, and we’re so grateful for the care she gave him. We would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter and would happily book her again. Ollie was clearly very well cared for, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience!
Laura took great care of my dog--and, in the process, took great care of me as well. He can be difficult with new people, but she was patient and careful and gave him the space that he needs--with the result that he warmed up to her right away, and she kept me posted with reports and photos so that I could relax and enjoy my vacation. I would be delighted to have her stay with him again, and I only hope she's available the next time I spend time away.
Sara responded immediately to a last minute request for a long weekend. She stayed at our home and watched our precious Poppy. She responded to texts and asked before taking him out to a park, which I was grateful for, since parks are not his thing! Poppy seems content and comfortable on our return, so based on his response I will definitely use Sara again. Thank you Sara, for your care!?
Isis took great care of our cat, Pishi, while we were off in another state for our wedding! She sent regular pictures, gave us updates about his eating and sleeping and playing, and was very proactive in making sure she knew exactly what Pishi needed. 10/10, will reach out next time we need someone to watch our boy!
Kristina was awesome! Our dog has bad separation anxiety and Kristina was so great at meeting her needs. She also paid a ton of attention to our cat who sometimes gets overlooked with such a demanding dog. Kristina sent tons of adorable photos and sent updates multiple times a day. Kristina also left our house in great shape. We would love to have her back.
Nikki was so responsive and kept us in the loop throughout the day she was sitting our dog. Meet and greet beforehand was lovely and she was on time and fully trustworthy. Will 100% be using her services again
Jonathan stayed at my home and took care of my 6 year old chihuahua mix pup. She tends to be somewhat anxious especially when she's away from me. Jonathan came to the house twice before the actually date we needed him and connected with my pup in a very gentle, loving manner. She really took to him. On the day of his arrival at the house, I was boarding a flight about to take off and got a notice from my security company that the wrong code was being entered into the door for him to get into the house.I just figured that he has mistakenly punched the wrong code in, which I sometimes do. I then realized I had given him the wrong code!! At that point the flight took off and I could not communicate for over an hour. He stayed cool, called the security company and also connected with an AirBnB guest who was staying at my home; all to no avail. After about an hour, I was able to send a text and he was able to get in. He was full of grace. When we got home, we found the dog happy as could be, and the house in excellent shape. I'm looking forward to having Jonathan stay at our home again! I would recommend him very very highly as a caring and competent sitter!!
Chris was fabulous and took great care of our older lab who needed daily meds. Chris was very responsive and sent great photos.
Thank you for all your flexibility, Sarah! So much peace of mind when Sam is with you 🐾
Can't say enough good things about Jackie. She was a delight to work with. Always checking in keeping me updated and sending pictures. She took great care of Duke and left the house better than when I left. Will definitely use her again!
Angie was the best! I was lucky to snag a last-minute booking with her for my cat. She is a great communicator and kept me updated the whole time I was away. Will be booking again!
Natalie took great care of Rhea and Zeus while I was away for work. I was comforted knowing that they were being well loved while I was gone. She is clearly a dog lover and sent happy photos and videos my way while she was away. Zeus and Rhea are always happy when she shows up! Thanks Natalie!
Our girls loved Cressida! She is great with dogs, our lab even snuggled with her! She is communicative and flexible and we’re thrilled that we found a new go-to dog sitter in the area!
Justin did a fantastic job watching out great dane and two cats. The pets seem all well taken care of and the house is as clean as (if not cleaner than) when we left. Would definitely hire again.
Arshneel was great with our pup, sent daily update photos and was the perfect houseguest! We’re already planning for her next visit! :) Appreciate the peace of mind she brings knowing that everything is under control during her watch!
Yi was an WONDERFUL house sitter, and we felt completely at ease knowing Baxter and Boo were in her care! She was incredibly responsive and sent tons of updates throughout our trip, including daily confirmation whenever she gave Baxter his twice-daily medication. She also gracefully navigated through some issues with our lockbox and Wifi, and our home was spotless when we returned. Her videos showed Baxter having the BEST time going on walks in Prospect Park and playing with her aussie, Lynx! Yi went above and beyond to keep us worry-free, and we came home to some very happy and well-cared-for fluffy sons. We would ABSOLUTELY recommend her!
Allison is an exceptional dog sitter. She is caring and conscientious. What is impressed me most is how professional and mature she is for such a young woman. I would definitely recommend and plan on calling on Allison again in the future.
