Melissa was everything we wanted when we were looking for someone to check in on our cat! She came every day, played with our cat, fed her, replenished the water, cleaned the litter, etc. But most importantly, she took the time to get to know our cat and treat her the way she wanted. While we were away, she sent us countless pictures of how our car was doing, and showed us how much care she was giving her. She gave us nice reports on how things were, and she went the extra mile even when we didn't ask, playing for extra time with her, leaving out and changing the toys when she left. Overall, I'd highly recommend Melissa!

Marz was very responsible, detail oriented, and communicative. She took wonderful care of our cats, sending regular pictures and visit details. She went above and beyond, sweeping the floors and doing other related things to ensure we came home to a clean home. I highly recommend Marz.

Truly one of the best pet sitters around. Sue cares for your animal is if they are her own. She is timely with updates and sends lots of photos. Would definitely contact Sue again to care for Kiwi!

Leah did such a great job taking care of our 2 cats! Both of them were super comfortable with her the moment they met her, and they tend to be shy around new people. They both required medicine and she did a great job administering it. She also took the time to play with them and pet them when she stopped by. I would highly recommend and we’ll definitely have her watch them again in the future!

Thank you for making sure our pup got his medicine, a walk, and some play time. It's not easy being enthusiastic when walking so many dogs, as well as when a dog is sick, lethargic, or just plain lazy. Haha. Thanks, Meghan! :)

Trisha was amazing! She was extremely accommodating to my last minute request for check ins with my pup Cruz. Trisha always kept me in the loop with cute pictures and an update on how the visit went. She took Cruz on walks and made sure he had fresh water and food upon each visit. Trisha also gave him so much love and attention while I was gone for the weekend as well. Will definitely book again with Trisha, she was fabulous!

Sarah has watched my cat Nutmeg multiple times in the past year and I always know Nutmeg is in the best of hands with her. She’s very reliable, attentive, and sweet — my cat maybe even loves her more than I do. Your pets will love her too :)

Ethan is great pet caregiver. He’s been watching my dog, Panu, for little over a year and she’s absolutely in love with him. He takes her on walks and occasionally watches her for a few hours when I need to run extensive errands.

Ani's care for our beloved dog, Bear, exceeded our expectations each time she watched him. Her genuine love for animals was evident from the moment we met her, and it translated into attentive and nurturing care for Bear. Ani was not only reliable but also incredibly flexible, accommodating our scheduling changes. We would wholeheartedly recommend Ani to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
