4. Yusuf B.
“I had the absolute pleasure of having Yusuf care for my cat, Luna, while I was away for a week—and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was communicative, professional, and warm. Luna is usually shy around new people, but she took to Yusuf almost immediately, which says a lot! Yusuf provided daily updates and photos, showing Luna playing, eating, and even snuggling—a rare sight! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. She also kept everything tidy and made sure Luna’s routine stayed consistent. I highly recommend Yusuf to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”

6. Jennifer G.
“Jennifer took such great care of our cats! We will definitely be using her services again. One of our cats is extremely shy, but warmed up to Jennifer instantly at the meet and greet. Because of this we knew they would be in good hands and felt confident in leaving them in her care. Her attention to detail was wonderful as well!”
7. Rachel M.
“To whom this may concern, Rachel Martinez has been taking care of our 2- dogs for the last 5 years while we go on vacation or the desert. We have all the trust in the world that she is taking very good care of our pets. Whenever we ask her she is always willing with a smile. I believe Rachel really enjoys being around animals, her love for animals is very transparent. I would definitely use your service knowing that you would employ Rachel or anybody close to her level of caring towards pets.”

“Sara was fantastic! Such a nice, caring person who took exceptional care of my cat at my last minute request. She did everything I asked, treated my cat like the king he thinks he is, came at the time we agreed on and had no problem giving him his syringe medication. She sent amazing photos and updates and it was so nice not worrying about my cat while I was away. I also appreciate that she takes care of cats since so many Rover sitters only watch or prefer dogs. I would highly recommend Sara and I am so grateful to have found her near where I live!!”
