“Rachel went above and beyond to take care of our cats (and our garden)! She kept us well updated with details and pictures. Our house looks great and our cats are happy. Thank you Rachel!”
“Nicholas has been great with updates and making sure my cat is fed and happy. He sends multiple pictures and makes sure to let me know when he’s eaten, drank water and had his bathroom breaks. He’s very friendly and knows what he’s doing which makes me feel relieved while I’m out of town.”
“Haley handled my cat exactly as instructed and provided plenty of pictures along the way. He warmed up very quickly to her and I had no concerns for his well-being.”
“Alyssa was wonderful! Even when she wasn't feeling well, she still came by to look after my cat. I loved that she worked with me as far as pricing goes. She even bought over a new cat toy and a new scooper!!! Alyssa is very sweet and I HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Taylor is beyond wonderful! She took great care of our 2 cats, making sure they had fresh food and water and going the extra mile by deep cleaning their litter box and cleaning the area around it as well. She retrieved our mail and put out our trash cans, which was great. She had great communication and we will definitely be contacting her any time we need to leave town.”
“We have never used a service like this before, leaving our cats was very difficult but Jordan made us feel very comfortable with leaving our cats in her hands, she has been amazing! She is sweet and very professional! If you decide to use the service, please go with Jordan! Your animals are in the best care. Thank you so much for making our trip more enjoyable knowing you were there for my fur babies!”
“I’m the type of person who said I’d never be able to let a stranger watch my babies. I found myself in a position where I needed to break that rule and Hannah was so wonderful that I wasn’t stressed at all about leaving her with my pets. She and her daughter came over every day to play with, feed, and care for my babies. She was very communicative, innovative when any pets might not eat enough or seem too stressed, and knowledgeable. She was willing to try any ideas I had on how to help my pets cope, too (my dog especially is a very anxious boy). I truly believe that Hannah and her daughter loved my pets like I do and I couldn’t be happier with how their visits went. I cannot recommend Hannah enough.”
“Jaimie went above and beyond to take care of my fur baby, Athena. I was able to enjoy the holiday back home without worrying because I knew Athena was in great hands. I highly recommend Jaimie and will be reaching out to her again in the future.”
“Kelsey did a great job checking on my cats while I was out of town! One of them is very scared of new people, but Kelsey made sure she ate and even got her to come out and say hello.”
“Kirsten was booked originally ahead of time and was awesome. She took time to do a meet and greet and took great care of the pups. They had no accidents! I then had to last minute re book her twice and she was accommodating both times! 10/10 recommend. I hate I found such a great dog sitter right before I move.”
“Eleyna was fantastic with our dogs! She was attentive, caring, and made sure they were happy and well cared for. It was also a last minute booking. We’ll definitely book with her again. 5 stars!”
“Kess was absolutely incredible :) she sent such cute photos and showed so much patience and love to my skittish cat that he came out of his shell in no time. I knew I could trust her to take extra good care of him in my absence. Will absolutely book again in the future. Thanks Kess!!”
“Gayla is awesome, not only did she house sit our pet during Easter week, she also went above and beyond in handling an emergency situation with our new puppy. She is responsible, reliable, and extra communicative. I would recommend her to all!”

She did an amazing job taking care of our four little heathens… I mean, kitties! 🐾 Everyone was always fed, watered, and the litter robots were spotless. We felt totally at ease knowing she was checking in every day (and her updates were wonderfully detailed!). Super reliable, caring, and patient with our crew — highly recommend.
Rodney has been amazing!! I had to go out of town unexpectedly for an extended period of time and after our first meeting, I knew I’d found someone who would take care of my babies while I was away and I wouldn’t have to worry. He was so communicative and easy to work with and my 3 fluffy kitties were well looked after! As a huge bonus he also helped keep my place clean while I was gone so I didn’t come home to a thick layer of cat hair everywhere (long haired cats are fine aren’t they?). Thank you so much Rodney, you’re the best!!!
Annabelle was a fabulous cat sitter! She showed up on-time and did all that needed to be done, keeping me well-informed along the way! Most interestingly to me, my extremely reserved cat - a cat which remains hidden when outsiders come into the home - appeared for Annabelle and even wanted Annabelle to pet her! Truly a feat of nature! Clearly Annabelle has a knack for pets! I highly recommend Annabelle! Her extremely pleasant personality coupled with her attention-to-detail ensures your pet will be well taken care of while you are away. Thank you, Annabelle! :)
