“Saundra was very quick to respond to my very last minute request and it was greatly appreciated. She was thorough and left us observations on what she saw about Ruby every day, which made me feel good about her trustworthiness. She also was nice enough to come over to get the key from us before our vacation and drop it off afterwards. Recommend!”

“Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!”
“Was so thorough and such a great communicator!! Adriana updated me with every drop by with simple and effective communication so that I felt completely confident she was caring for our pets! I appreciated her punctuality stopping by right when she said she would each day! We were very impressed, thank you!!”

I’ve looked after dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and have experience giving medications too.
