Brigit did a fantastic job of drop-in visits to take care of my cat while I was out of town. She communicated promptly and very effectively about those drop-in visits. I would highly recommend Brigit to anyone looking for drop-in cat visits!

There’s no better compliment than a repeat customer. Josephine is phenomenal! She’s the most thorough, compassionate, and loving sitter my cats have ever had. When she walks through my door my cats run right up to her. It provides me a lot of comfort when I’m away knowing that Josephine is caring for my fur babies. I will absolutely be using her services in the future when she’s available.

Heaven is just wonderful! When we did our meet and greet, I found that she had read both of my big dogs' profiles. She asked relevant questions about each dog's health and medical needs. She came wearing a small bell so that my blind dog would know where she was--so smart and thoughtful! Upon successive drop in visits, she made sure to follow all directions, gave each dog individual attention and belly rubs (which they loved!) and also made sure they had a backyard visit. She sent pictures and notes following each visit. It is very obvious that Heaven has dog experience and takes their care seriously. I am looking forward to using her services in the future and feel very happy to have found her!

Alexis is so wonderful- she takes the time to play with my cats every time she comes over and she does such a good job keeping the kitty corner cleaned up while I’m away. She’s very sweet and makes me feel much more comfortable leaving home because I know my cats are in excellent hands.

We just wrapped Mina’s third booking with August and I have no notes- as always he was reliable, communicative, patient with our rescue bb and kept her safe. This trip however had some exciting new developments- our little pitty is slow to warm up to people and it was evident in the photos and notes that she has grown to trust August after just three stays! She also showed significantly less anxiety when we returned, giving this helicopter parents much relief. August was also great about following up to make sure we made it home safely, ensuring Mina wouldn’t be without care. As always, he’s been incredible to work with!

This is my first time using this service. I didn’t know what to expect. I had reach out to others and either never heard back or they just didn’t explain the process clearly. Finally I found Candice. Candice explained everything from the beginning to the end. We had a meet and great with Candice. She is a very sweet and loving person. I feel like we struck gold with her. She stayed in communication with us the entire time she was sitting out dog. She sent us pictures and even went above and beyond. In the pictures we can tell our dog was happy and comfortable with Candice. We are so grateful for her. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you Candice!!

Rita was amazing! I have a diabetic cat, and this was the first time I left her with a sitter. Rita completely put my mind at ease. She sent me twice daily updates and pictures. She was knowledgeable about giving my cat her insulin injections, and she took perfect care of my cat while I was gone. I 100% recommend Rita, and I look forward to booking with her again.

Kristen is absolutely exceptional—we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs. From the very first visit, it was clear how naturally she connects with animals. Our dogs adore her, and that peace of mind is everything to us. She goes above and beyond during every drop-in, always sending thoughtful updates and photos so we can see how happy and well cared for they are. It’s obvious she treats them like her own. What truly sets Kristen apart is her flexibility and reliability. No matter how hectic or last-minute our schedule gets, she is always accommodating and professional. That level of consistency is rare. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, and genuinely loves dogs, Kristen is it. We’re incredibly grateful to have found her and won’t be using anyone else.
