1. Alex F.
“Alex and Christina were very sweet. They sent lots of updates and spent a lotttt of time with our separation-anxiety cat while we were away for the week, and she seemed perfectly content when we returned home! We were glad to have them to help us!”
2. Natalee C.
“Natalee has stayed with us three times and we will definitely use her services again! She is trustworthy and really cares about our pups. She has been very accommodating and communicative and very conscientious. She took it in stride when we added a new puppy to the mix and again when our dog was having tummy issues, providing regular updates and even took a trip to the vet to make sure all was well. It turns out our dog recognizes her car driving down the street and gets so excited to see his friend!! Thank you Natalee!”
3. Lauren S.
“Lauren was so great with our stubborn bull dog. She is excellent with communication and provided regular updates while we were gone which was so helpful. We knew our pup was in great hands with her. We would definitely recommend her!”
4. Becky G.
“Becky is wonderful. She is professional and caring. She took the time to meet Tahlula and Scarlet about a month before our trip and then came back a few days before to meet them again and walk through their feeding instructions with us. She checked in with us and sent pictures throughout our trip. I would recommend Becky to anyone.”

10. Katie B.
“Katie is great!! She babysat our two cats in our home for 5 days. Each is on a separate feeding regimen - one for thyroid disease and one for kidney disease. She was very conscientious with their care. One has to be fed wet food every 3-4 hours and with the help of an automated feeder and ice packs, she managed his schedule wonderfully. She sent tons of pics and communicated regularly. Katie will go beyond your expectations and treat your pets like her own!”

“Extremely professional and sent several updates throughout our weekend away! Looking forward to Max taking care of our fur babies in the future!”
12. Corinne N.
“Corinne was fantastic at watching our two big dogs! We got daily doggy report cards and lots of pictures - we loved seeing how our boys were doing while we were away. She easily handled our more complicated feeding process for our dogs (they are spoiled and get fancy meals, and one of our dogs is very picky about taking his medication every morning), and left our house as clean (if not cleaner) than we left it. Thank you, Corinne!”

19. Carolyn F.
“Carolyn is AMAZING. She’s watched our puppy twice and both times we were so at ease knowing Bruno was with someone who cares about him as much as we do. Carolyn is such a good communicator. As an owner, leaving your pets behind can be stressful and a little anxiety inducing but with Carolyn’s frequent updates we felt so much better. Our dog and can be a bit high energy at times and Carolyn was always willing to keep on pace with him, making sure he had a fun companion whenever he wanted to play. She really goes above and beyond so we’ve been very happy!”
20. Paige C.
