“Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.”

11. Seline P.
“Seline is a responsible pet owner. She's owned cats for a few years now (at least since 2020) and regularly takes them to the vet, does routine vaccines, and recently had one spayed. She makes sure her cats are always fed, hydrated, and have plenty of enrichment like toys, cat towers, and treats. I trust Seline to take care of my own two cats, which she has done a few times in the past. She understands instructions well, especially since my two cats have separate diets and must be fed separately.”

“Lynne was wonderful. She responded quickly and scheduled time to come meet us, the pups, and get all the information about their needs prior to our trip. She stayed with our dogs for 5 days and was great with both of them, including our senior dog who has a number of medications and dietary needs, and shared daily updates and photos of the pups and was respectful of our home. We will definitely book her again, if she is willing!”
17. Emma R.
