She sends photos, videos, and thorough updates about both of my girls, which removes so much stress and anxiety when I’m travelling. Josephine is thoughtful, trustworthy, and deeply caring. I’m so grateful that she is able to care for my little ladies when I’m gone, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who is looking for high quality pet care.”

“I've known Jossy for years and the kindness and compassion she shows for all animals is amazing. Making sure that there needs come first. Being so alert and attentive. And making sure safety is top priority. I can't say enough good things about what she has done for animals and the community! Would definitely recommend her to watch animals and others because she understands they are more than just pets. They are our family.”

“Noel is very professional, reliable, and I always have full confidence in leaving my two kitties in her hands. She goes above and beyond what is asked every time she visits. It is very obvious from the moment you meet her that she is passionate about animals and will give your pet the best care you could ask for when you’re away. I have complete trust in her when I am away, which is very reassuring and affords me much peace of mind. I highly recommend her to look after your furry friends.”

I would strongly recommend her to friends and family because she treats our fur-babies like her own, keeps us informed on their daily activities and takes them on adventures to explore and play.”

19. Kynleigh W.
“Take it from me, disregard her the ONLY negative review she has. Kynleigh was beyond great with my Kaine. Kaine is a big boy full of excitement and I alerted her on some of his behaviors such as jumping and leash pulling but she still tended to him last minute. Not only did she do drop ins but the drop ins were interactive, not just no feeding and walking. She took time to play with him and also to taught him how to lay and he listens when I tell him to lay. I can tell Kaine looked forward to her visits and she kept me up to date as well. Thank you so much Kynleigh, I’ll definitely be back if you don’t mind. She even took her shoes off at the door and I didn’t have to tell her. Respectful young lady and sitter all around. Highly recommend her.”
20. Mary O.
“Mary is my favorite and my cats adore her, which is fantastic because they don’t like anybody! I will absolutely continue using Mary as my pet sitter.”
