Elizabeth is exceptional. She is a great communicator, perfect house guest and conscientious about her work. We hired Elizabeth for a house stay over the long weekend with our dog Ollie and would not hesitate to do so again. I feel lucky to have found her!

Jessica did a good job watching my dog, Poppy. She followed all the care instructions and was able to keep my anxious dog calm. She was communicative and sent good updates.

Christina took care of our home and dog, Poppy, while we were out of town for 10 days. She was just great with Poppy! He is old, grouchy and mistrustful of strangers, and at first he barked at her. But within a very short time he trusted her completely, let her play with him and take him out for walks, and even snuggled next to her on the couch! Christina also communicated with us frequently, sending us cheerful messages and photos of Poppy. She was very responsible about looking after our home, too, and handled everyday tasks so we had nothing to worry about while we were away. We were very glad to have Christina as a house- and dog-sitter, and recommend her most highly!

Akiko is incredible! She’s taken care of our dog Quinten many times now and even stayed with him for a week while we were away and did an amazing job. Q is a blind rescue and can be challenging with strangers but Akiko made him and us so comfortable with lots of updates and walks! Can’t wait for her to come back! Thanks Akiko!!

Eric was wonderful with my pup! He spent lots of quality time with the pup, and he consistently shared updates and pictures of their fun. I’m looking forward to the next time Eric gets to sit with Tucker.

Leana is an absolute gem! Our dachshund puppy is absolutely in love with her and her sweet pup Charlie and clearly had the best time while she house/puppy-sat for us for a week. She's extremely responsive, trustworthy, caring, and neat. Cannot recommend her enough.

Thank you again Alizeé for taking great care of our girls! Saffy and Scarlett were already cuddled up next to her before we even left 😂. We got video and photo updates while we were gone and both were sleepy and ready for bed when we got home. Thanks again!!

I think this was the third time Rhiannon sat for Vega about 4 ish days. Always come home to happy cat and you know everything is a-ok when you see photos of your fur baby on someone else's lap. Slow blinks- check! Food and water- check! Medications twice a day- check! Very early morning snuggle/ pay attention to me time- check! Thanks again Rhiannon and Alex! Till next time!

Maggie was absolutely awesome staying with our very sensitive rescue and older Chiweenie over the weekend. The house was in better shape than when we left it and the girls didn’t miss us at all :) we hope to have Maggie stay again in the future when we head out of town!

Anita was great with Herbie! She took fantastic care of him and I can tell she was very attentive. I came back and he was very content and seemed to have been playing a ton! Anita was also super responsive to my texts and willing to work with me last minute. She also left the house very clean and tidy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Thanks for taking such good care of Herbie!

Book him if you get the chance! Highly recommend working with Adrian given his consistent and effective communication. Adrian's attentive care and reliability make it easier to relax as an anxious pet parent when traveling. He's professional, sends photo updates regularly, and makes an awesome dog walker and sitter!

We could not have asked for better people to come and stay at our home and looking after our cat, Lottie. I'm not sure if Lottie would have rather have had Jaclyn and Aaron stay permanently than us return. Both Jaclyn and Aaron kept us well informed during their stay along with lovely pictures of how comfortable Lottie was. Also, I'm pretty sure the flat was cleaner when we got back than when we left too. I think the biggest complement I can give is that at no point during the three weeks did we worry about how Lottie was doing as we knew she was being well cared for. Lottie says thanks too! She especially loved watching film noir.

Tamiya did a superb job with our dog and cat while we were away. Our dog is particularly anxious around new people, and Tamiya was approached her with such calm patience that she was able to relax and even warm up to her. We are so thankful to have found Tamiya! Cannot recommend strongly enough.

Shirley was amazing with my dog Quinn! Quinn is a rescue pup with a lot of energy so I wanted to leave him with someone active who could match his level. Shirley took Quinn on walks, sent me updates and was great with him while I was gone for the week. Thank you, Shirley!
