21. Megan T.

“Megan was absolutely stellar! Her updates were incredibly thorough and she sent lots of pictures of all the pets, including the aquatic ones. Our kitty adored her, and it really made me feel safe to leave the pets knowing that she was there. Megan is a great sitter and I am really looking forward to booking with her again.”


22. Laura S.
“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”


23. Anne S.

“Anne did a fabulous job!! Her sweet, calm energy put my anxious cats at ease. She did wonderful with my finicky instructions, sent helpful updates with pictures, and took great care with my girls. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing they were in good hands.”


24. Abigail M.
“Abigail was a wonderful pet sitter for our 4 dogs and 4 cats while we were out of the state for 2 weeks. Each of my pets had pretty specific needs such as daily medications and all being fed different food, and Abigail was able to follow my instructions to a tee! Not only was she amazing at staying in touch with me and sending pictures whenever I asked, my pets also loved her! I also love that she has extensive veterinary medicine knowledge and experience, so that if any of my pets got sick while we were gone, she would know what to do! Leaving our pets for that length of time was nerve racking at first, but once we were on our trip, I did not find myself worrying at all. When we came home, my dogs were even treated to a new toy from their new friend, Abigail. I 10/10 recommended her and would 100% book her again for our pet sitting needs.”


25. Katelyn C.

“Katie was very punctual and responsive! She was so kind to my cat, followed all instructions, and my cat looked forward to her visits filled with lots of petting! I would recommend her and have her provide care in the future!”


26. Heather L.
About: Hi there! My name is Heather and I have two very mellow well behaved dogs. We go to dog parks almost every day and love to socialize. If you are looking for someone to trust with your animals, I am the perfect person. I treat my dogs like they are my children, and I would do the same with yours. The type of dogs that would be perfect in our home would be those that are not aggressive or very high energy unless they are puppies!! I am on summer break from college, so I have a bunch of free time when I’m not working. Anytime I do work, I have a dog walker come take my girls on exercise. Currently my schedule allows me to host your babies Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and saturdays My girls are extremely spoiled!!! Weekly pup cups, pupsickles, dog parks and daily walks for exercise and stimulation, also lots of dog cuddles and new toys from bark box 🤗 my backyard overlooks a gorgeous pond so there’s tons of deer, geese and bunnies to watch If your furry friends need a walk while you’re at work or you just need me to drop by, I am more than happy to do so.

29. Louisa S.
“Louisa is an amazing pet caregiver! She is reliable, responsible and so loving with our cat. Our cat is a super Senior (almost 16!) and requires meds at morning and at night and Louisa was confident and very considerate while giving them. She asked all the right questions, sent us updates with a picture and gave our cat lots of snuggles and playtime. We are very grateful for Louisa, the care she provides allows us to comfortably and confidently take a vacation without worrying about our sweet girl.”

She takes care of them like they are her own and is willing to give medications (which can be a trick sometimes!), make sure they get plenty of snuggles, play time, and exercise. She is very honest and trustworthy and always follows up if something seems off or out of the ordinary. I highly recommend her caring for your furry friends!”
