House Sitting in Catharine

This was my first time working with Sarah and she jumped into a 4 dog plus one foster house without hesitation. She dealt well with picky eaters, toy shredders and so.e house training issues with the foster. Got nice updates throughout the weekend.

Claudia was a wonderful pet sitter! From the moment we met her, it was clear she was a lover of animals and she would take wonderful care of our dog Pepper while we were out. She left the house in spic and span, was always in communication during our trip or if she had any questions, and shared lots of pics throughout. Would hire again in a heartbeat.

This was the second time Bill watched my dog. Besides the facts that Bill brought my dog a new toy and cleaned up my house for me a bit, including doing some dishes I hadn’t gotten to, he’s just fantastic with dogs. My dog is so happy to have bill watching him, and I don’t have to worry about the dog because I know he’s in good hands. Bill gives regular updates and very funny videos of the dog with Snapchat style face recognition bunny ears and what not, such a riot. Thanks for such great service, Bill!

We were initially apprehensive about leaving our senior dogs in someone else’s care due to their needs, but Roxanne exceeded our expectations. Her kindness and reassurance immediately put us at ease. She kept us updated daily with photos and updates, and when we returned, our dogs were calm, relaxed, and happy—completely unlike previous experiences. Choosing Roxanne was the best decision, and we’re so grateful for her exceptional care and dedication. Thank you, Roxanne, for keeping them safe and content!

Cris was wonderful! He took great care of our pup and our house and we would happily hire him again!

Angela was phenomenal. She didn’t just watch our pets, she cared for them like they were her own. Merlin got his walks, meds, playtime, and grooming (shedding + nails!), and our cats were relaxed and happy when we got home. She kept the house tidy, vacuumed fur, and maintained the litter box the entire week. We couldn’t ask for better. She’s our go‑to sitter moving forward.

Over the course of the last couple of years, we’ve been hesitant to travel without our Bowie Bear. But Maxine has removed all doubt. We couldn’t have been luckier to have her take care of our very special precious beast. I only hope after this review I’m still able to rely on her availability! Thanks Maxine!

Lydia was great with our pups! She was attentive and they were happy and healthy when we returned!

Cate did a great job caring for Benny. She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated since when we left he was quite sad. Cate was able to cheer him up and we came home to a very happy boy!

Ellie is the absolute best! She sent all kinds of photos of fun activities she brought our dogs on. They looked like they had a blast. She will be our go to for our dogs and should be yours too.

Julia was so great! So communicative and I could tell she really cared about our animals. The house was exactly as we left it if not enhanced a bit ☺️ We would totally book her services again!

Due to my "go to" sitter moving town, I needed to find a new home for my babies while I'm out of town. My son and I travel a lot so typical boarding/kennel is not my favorite place for the doggies. Arya was very responsive when setting up the stay. My dogs tend to forget their training when meeting someone new, and I appreciated that Arya immediately responded to my goldendoodle the way I want him to when he jumps - he turned his back. Within 2 minutes Ayra had Marlin responding as he should (too often people tell me, "oh, it's okay" and allow Marlin to misbehave. I know this is also on me...but to have help, helps!). The dogs were walked regularly and I was given many, many videos. I had some questions about the dogs after pick up, and Arya responded immediately. He also texted to check in to see how they were doing, which was great. I'd absolutely use Arya again for shorter trips; I'm not sure about longer ones because the dogs appear to spend much time in the crate. It's not a negative per se - and I trusted Arya completely with them - it's just that that stay is very different from their lifestyle they've experienced during boarding, which is a large yard in which to run free, and generally only crating at night for sleep and when my previous sitter would leave the house.
