“Mikenah was great! She kept me updated on my cats while I was gone and sent me some really great photos of them as well! Would definitely book her again in the future! Thank you!!!”
“Ludi did a great job looking after my two wonderful cats. The best part about her is how much she cares for animals. When first meeting with her she took the time to meet my cats and let them get used to her and by the end of the visit they were totally comfortable with her. She also clearly took the time to play and visit with my boys, which is extremely important to me.”
“She was amazing with our pups. Came at the times she said she was. Sent updates on both dogs with a ton of pictures. Communication was great as well. Will definitely be using her more times!”
“Cats must have been happy based on the photos Anna sent! The one we were worried would be shy was out and about. Place was clean and tidy when we got home too! Would definitely recommend her to watch your cats!”
“Rory did a terrific job with my cats. I had never used a pet sitter before, so I didn’t know what to expect. I felt that he did a wonderful job caring for my pets and keeping me informed daily. I felt very comfortable with him, knowing that my pets were being well cared for. I felt he went above and beyond. I would highly recommend Rory and would never hesitate to call on him again!”

“Guilherme was an amazing pet sitter. He did drop in visits for our cat Percy. Spent time with him and kept us informed with pics and texts. It is very obvious he adores animals and they him.

Kyle K.
“I highly recommend Kyle as a pet caregiver. He’s watched my dog Millie multiple times while I’ve been away, and I always feel at ease knowing she’s in his care. Millie, who was abused by her previous owners, has some trust issues, but Kyle has truly won her over with his patience and kindness. He takes the time to make sure she’s comfortable, follows her feeding routine precisely, and administers her allergy medication without fail. When I leave Millie with Kyle, I know she’s getting all the attention, love, and support she needs. He also keeps me updated on how she’s doing, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. I’m incredibly lucky to have Kyle as both a friend and a caregiver for Millie. His genuine care for animals and his thoughtful approach to Millie’s needs have made all the difference. I’m so grateful for the way he’s helped my rescue pup feel comfortable and safe in my absence.”
