“My girls have enjoyed having Jodi drop in during the day. I work long hours and they really benefit from her visits. Bayleigh is high energy and Jodi plays her favorite games with her. The other 2 are enjoying getting out for a while and getting snuggles. Jodi is always prompt and locks up carefully when she leaves.”


“Katelyn was great with my cat, and he absolutely loved her. She followed my exact schedule & instructions for feeding and hung out with him for petting after he ate (which he loved). I would use her service again!”


“Paige was great! She did a great job watching my scaredy cat and making sure she was cared for. She was a great communicator and let me know how my kitty was doing each day.”


“Jasmine is amazing!! This is the first time we have left our dog at home when we went on vacation and Jasmine made it stress free! I can’t recommend her enough. She is a dog person and not only that she will make sure your home is locked and safe while you are away. If you are looking for your new dog sitter, look no further, she is absolutely amazing!”


“We needed someone to let our senior dog out once a day while at work. Chante has been amazing. She is very reliable and kind to our dog. I can't thank her enough for helping us out.”


“KJ was amazing! She checked in on my cat when I was out of town, and when I unexpectedly had to extend my trip KJ was readily able to continue checking in on my cat for me and even picked up more food. KJ is extremely reliable, caring, and kind and I will 100% book with her again! My cat is very wary of new people but warmed up to KJ very quickly :)”
