Bahisha did a great job with our kitty! :) Would definitely rebook her services. She was also very communicative when we had an issue with our water and our landlord needed information and she made sure to bring in all of our mail while we were away.

Madeline took excellent care of our big golden retriever! She came out to our house in the morning and evening to feed and walk him. She was always within the time frame that we requested and sent multiple pictures of him each time! Would highly recommend her to care for your dog!

Yaniera, Thank you for being you---you took such great care of my kitties, and it's such a relief to know when someone cares. Thank you for all your caring work. And the gifts for them... and the photos you printed for me! Wow, that was such a lovely surprise. I'd give you a million stars if Rover let me. 🩷

Kyle is responsible, patient, detail-oriented, and most importantly, great with dogs. He takes loving care of his own dog at home, and provides the same level of care and attention to everyone else's dogs too. I would trust Kyle with my dog, without a doubt.

Anton and his wife watched our 2 chihuahuas, 1 midsize dog, and cat on 2 occasions during our vacation away from home. They communicated with us daily, mostly reporting that all the animals are doing well. On one occasion we offered them to stay in our house for a few days and they left the house in pristine condition. They also took care of our plants and mail during that time. The best thing about Anton is that he is reliable and trustworthy, and he is a natural with pets (he holds a Russian veterinary diploma). One of our chihuahuas is very difficult to handle and often threatens to bite people, but he loved Anton and was comfortable with him coming to our house even when we were not there.

It has been such a relief since we have had Molly's help for our cat when we are away. We have an older cat who is sensitive to change and I can tell that she is super happy to see Molly and vice versa. Molly is very responsive and sends great updates, it is a pleasure working with her.
