“Makenzie did great with our 2 dogs, while we were out of town for 1.5 weeks. She was attentive to their needs and kept us updated during our time away. We highly recommend Makenzie!”
5. Elizabeth W.
“This is the third time Elizbeth cared for my two dogs and one cat. This was a 2-night house-sitting job. I can't say enough positive things about how Elizabeth ensured my pets' welfare. Both dogs are pretty sensitive and have been uneasy when we have been away in the past. Not so with Elizabeth! They had a great time playing and cuddling with her, and they settled in beautifully. When we got home, I could see how comfortable they are with Elizabeth. What a difference and what a relief! I recommend Elizabeth highly for her pet sitting skills and dedication to the best care for my pets.”

“I loved the way Katja sitter Camilo. She was so interested to know first everything about him to better take care of him. She was kind and sweet, she sent frequent messages to understand how everything was going. At the end, Camilo missed her a lot, he is trying to find her around the house ! This is cute. I appreciate Katya’s professionalism. And I highly recommend her”

“If you want a pet sitter who will treat your pets like their own, pick Mackenzie!! She is our go to pet sitter for our three dogs and two cats.

Thank you Mackenzie, my babies love you!”

About: I love taking care of dogs and cats. I grew up taking care of them. They bring happiness to any home. Dogs and cats are very therapeutic and cuddly. They bring smiles to everyone’s faces no matter what age! I love running around and playing with them. I’m very positively upbeat and active to keep up with their spontaneous energy. I enjoy running around with them and allowing them to discover new adventures of the outside world. I always felt that dogs and cats have feelings and emotions as well as humans and they should be treated kindly and with a bunch of love because they are always so very important to their human owners. They deserve happiness and to be in a fun loving environment! Pets and animals have a purpose in life. It’s time to fulfil that purpose!
