1. Elena L.

“I have two older cats who spend a lot of time with us but not comfortable with strangers and she made me feel so much more comfortable while we were gone. Mostly because she was there when we expected her and she took some time, took care of them and sent us some pictures.”


2. Stephanie S.

“Stephanie is wonderful! A great communicator, lover of animals, and very attentive. You can’t put a price on peace of mind and I appreciate that I can leave town and be out of cell service with no worries about my fur babies. I highly recommend Stephanie for your pet care needs!”


3. Gillian F.

“Gillian was everything we could’ve hoped for while home, and more. My pup is a rescue who, despite being with us for several years, still has some nervous habits and Gillian knew exactly how to meet and greet her. While we were out, she worked on gaining trust, eye contact and a few reward driven games which I cannot thank her for enough! Not only is this great stimulation for pup but shows her there are strangers she can trust when we’re not around. Gillian did all this of her own volition. We came home to find the mail was brought in and pups bowl had been washed clean. I’m hoping should we travel again, Gillian will be up to watch pup in the future. 12/10 recommend!”

About: •Pet first aid certified •Years of experience in a professional environment •Enrichment specialist I grew up on a farm, worked at a doggy daycare, and ran my own pet-sitting business from home as a kid; I love all animals.

About: I grew up in Oahu with all different types of pets in my household. We had dogs, fish, turtles, and tortoises! I love animals and I miss getting to hangout with them! I can’t wait to meet your pet :) I’m a full-time college student up at the U and i’m also working at a swim school!! I also volunteer at the humane society on my days off, i’m super busy but on my downtime I’d love the opportunity to meet your pets! I believe this would go case by case! Not all animals require the same needs, I’d have to chat with the owners (you) and meet the needs required! I’m a hard worker and willing to go the extra mile, so you let me know what needs to get taken care of.
