1. Anna M.
“Anna is super nice and really helpful! She really did a great job with my cats, she clearly loves animals?! She accepted the assignment as an all last minute assignment. My flight was to leave at 6AM (4 AM airport) and she came to my house to get the key and meet Louis and Paddle Marie, at 8:40 PM, the night prior to our departure! Really she was beyond accommodating! Great job Anna! Thank you for having such a great app with great people! I will definitely utilize your services again! M”

7. Morgan M.
“Morgan is very kind and responsive. After each visit she takes time to leave very detailed messages of her visit. She quickly has gotten to know my dog and knows how to understand her body language. I feel very comfortable with her taking care of my dog.”

“Samantha was an amazing cat sitter!! Very professional and communicative. She also got my super shy cat to come put and eat, which is a true miracle because hides from everyone. She’s the cat whisperer! I will definitely be booking with Samantha again.”
12. Marcela D.
“Marcela was so great with my cat Ryker! She helped out when I couldn't find a cat sitter for Christmas and I will certainly book her again in the future! She was incredibly communicative and it was clear from the pictures that Ryker had a great time hanging out with her!”
13. Alyssa B.
“Alyssa is wonderful and treats my pup like her own. I felt so much better on a long trip knowing she was taking good care of him. Plus the pictures and videos proved just that!”
14. Devin U.
“After I moved, I was very nervous about the idea of leaving my shy, distrustful bunny sisters with a new sitter for the first time - I even bailed on travel plans so I could stay home and take care of my girls. When I absolutely had to travel, the way Devin interacted with both me and the girls eased my fears considerably. They were very curious about him the first time they met, and it’s clear from the picture updates he sent that they only became more fond of him as time went on...They may actually have been disappointed when I came home. Mad respect to Devin for bringing out the hidden sweet side in a pair of sassy, stubborn bunnies!”
15. Brooke S.
“Brooke was a big hit with our dogs Moose and Nina. She dropped in on time, gave them tons of pets and treats and delivered meds with ease. Loved having her and hope to schedule again soon.”

“For as long as I've known Andy, he's been wonderful with dogs. He's incredibly reliable and kind, and has care experience with all ages, from youthful pups to golden years seniors.”
19. Tessa B.
“Tessa is amazing with pets! Tessa was always excellent with my rambunctious puppy - she was playful, patient, and helped me get through some tough puppy days. Tessa was also a wonderful and caring owner of a sweet senior rescue dog, and has cared for several other pets throughout her life. Outside of her experience with animals, Tessa is also a great person to work with in general. Tessa is easy to talk to, very receptive to concerns/questions, and will go out of her way to make you feel comfortable. She is extremely kind, helpful, and reliable. I cannot recommend Tessa highly enough! She will take great care of your pets and treat them like family.”
20. Max J.
“Max was able to set up a last-minute booking for me and I’m very grateful! He is very responsive and communicates well. He was also great with administering my cat’s eye drops/ointment, which can definitely be a learning curve! It’s reassuring to know that there’s somebody that I trust and can reach out to when if I ever need someone to watch my cat! Thanks Max!”
