6. Kira D.
“Kira was a wonderful and responsible overnight caretaker for our beautiful cat Samantha during the 2024 holiday season. She communicated with us on a daily basis and even sent pictures. This allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my Christmas while we are away visiting family. Kira was very respectful of our home and the best part was knowing that our 19-year-old cat was in good hands. When we arrived home, Sam was sleeping soundly and seemed content, which illustrated to me that she felt relaxed and safe. I trust Kira and recommend her for all of your pet sitting needs.”
