“Felicia is fantastic with my two cats! They absolutely love her, she is ensures their litter boxes stay clean, plays with them for most of the visit and feeds them before she leaves. She was careful to ensure my door remained locked after every visit as well. Everything I needed and specified for my visits with my cats.”

5. Elisabeth H.
“Lisa is the first person I think of when I need a caregiver for my little fluff ball. You can tell she really loves animals. She even asked if he had any special needs or had any behaviors to be aware of. I love that she has a large fenced in back yard for him to run around in. My dog feels right at home in Lisa's care. If you're still trying to figure out who you'd feel comfortable caring for your dog, from one pet owner to another, trust me when I say Lisa is your gal.”
