Kenny took care of our three dogs and one cat for a week while we were on vacation and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. His attention to each pet's needs, the way he engaged with each of them, his patience with our 17 year old spicy chihuahua (with special needs) was more than I could have hoped for. Kenny was always communicative, sent lots of pictures, asked all the questions you hope your sitter will ask, and took amazing care of our pets and our home. Having him care for our crew made our vacation so much more enjoyable because I knew I didn't need to worry about how things were going at home. Honestly - if I could give Kenny more than 5 stars, I would - he's the best!

We are so thankful that we found DeDe! She has been awesome with our dog on daily checks and most recently a weekend stay! She is very caring and understands our need to have someone with him! She communicates often and therefore we do not worry at all when he is with her! I highly recommend DeDe!!

Mickey clearly loves animals and Blinx quickly became her lap cat. When I left he was not eating normally and Mickey noticed that his face was swollen. She took him to the vet for me as I was out of the country. She administered his medication and followed his feeding schedule. I can't imagine how bad his infection would have got if she had not been so attentive. She even emptied and washed his litter box. Next time I need a pet sitter Mickey will be the first person I call.

Samantha was great! She came over early to meet our dog. We hired her to keep our dog entertained and calm while we were gone for many hours at a wedding. She walked him, fed him, and played with him, and we came home to a happy pup! We highly recommend her!

Nikayla is so good with animals. She has helped watch and take care of my dogs on numerous occassions whether I'm gone for work or travels. She's reliable and very dependable. She's always been great at upholding any restrictions; dietary or otherwise; that I have for my own dogs. She's thoughtful when it comes to loving on and playing with my cats. And had even taken on playing with and feeding my potbelly pig when I'm late coming home from work. Overall, she has been such a relief and big help to me as a woman who works alot and also loves animals myself. My pets adore her and so do I !!

Ashley was amazing! 😍 She was extremely patient with my dog that has anxiety issues. She took time to let him get comfortable with her. In addition to that, she was very thoughtful, and has sent messages throughout the whole process, from her ETA to all of the dog related updates. 🍀

Danielle is a Godsend. She is so sweet with my girl dakota. Has always gone over and beyond to help me out in last minute situations and lives Dakota like her own. She even was helpful when my dog went into heat while I was away on my trip and washed her party panties ( diaper) for me. Can’t recommend her enough!

Karissa is a hard working and trustworthy caretaker for any animal. I have trusted her on multiple occasions with not only my dog, Roofus, but with my cat and exotic animals as well. She has excellent communication skills; as she always sends me several photos and videos of my babies when they are in her care and is always available to text or call. It is extremely important to find a caregiver that both you and your fur baby have a connection with, and my fur babies and I are SO grateful to have Karissa!
