This is the 3rd time we hired Jessica to care for our two cats - one that needs insulin shots. She was once again awesome. She made sure to arrive 12 hours a part twice a day. Jessica assured me that out cat with diabetes ate the required amount before giving her an injection and also takes the time to give them both love and attention . She is the best!

Arielle is an amazing cat sitter! She agreed to watch our kitties last minute and is so responsive and nice! She sent detailed updates from her visits and great pictures of our cats! We didn’t have to worry about our cats at all while we were gone because we knew they were well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Arielle in the future!

Cory took great care of Bella while I was out of town. I was gone during the Christmas holiday so he took time away from his holiday to check in on my four legged child. Cory tried to send me pictures of her to send to me but she's known to be uncooperative with photos. Cory listened to my instructions during our first meeting and even assured me he would be by every day. I can not recommend Cory enough if you are going to be gone from your fur baby. I'm sure that Bella did much better being able to stay in her home while I was gone instead of dealing with the stress of separation from me and being in an unfamiliar kennel. I will be booking Cory in the future whenever I am going to be gone to take care of Bella!

He's a hit with my cats. My younger cat cuddles with him every time. He always looks for them and spends some time with them, so they feel accompanied and cared for. I've used him 3 times, and he always exceeds expectations. Fantastic with communication too. 10/10

Meagan dog and lizard sits for us all the time. She is such an animal lover and so good with them. She is comfortable with just about everything we need her to do for the animals, such as walking, playing with, feeding (even roaches), administering meds and so on. She is reliable and has her own transportation. She is good about cleaning up after herself as well! She's a college kid with time on her hands and wants to spend that time with all the animals! Highly recommend!

While I ultimately had to unfortunately cancel my trip with extremely short notice, I was really impressed with Sarah’s communication, quick response time, and willingness to help me out with a last minute booking. :) I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again and hope to utilize her help in the future.

Melissa has been an amazing resource for pet sitting our two senior dogs and two cats since we've lived in Grimes the last 7 years! It means so much to have someone close that we can trust with their aging medical needs when we travel. We highly recommend Melissa for any of your pet sitting needs!

About: With five years of experience in dog boarding, training, and daycare alongside three years of experience in veterinary medicine, I’m prepared to provide a safe and prepared sitter experience for your pet. I come equipped with CPR certificates for dogs of all sizes, cats, and pocket pets; knowledge of medications and their side effects and methods of administration; experience with insulin and diabetes in cats and dogs; fear free pet care certificates; and 30+ hours of experience in animal emergency hospitals to gain ER response preparedness for all species. To be sure my schedule fits your kiddos needs, included are the hours I’m away in a week for work. M: 8-1, 2-7 T,W,: 8-12, 1-5:30 F: 7:30-12, 1-5:30 On these days, pets still have play time and potty breaks over the noon hour, as well as play time and care before and after work hours. Clients answer a series of questions to build a personalized experience for their furry family members: information about feeding times, medication routines, allergies, and illnesses is gathered to get to know your pet best. Your pet’s experience is kept as similar to your daily routine as possible to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress.

Jen truly loves animals! I booked her last minute for a long day away from our two Great Danes, she still came over the day before to meet them and was so nice and patient with them. She sent me pics the next day when she let them out, they were happy to see her and loved on! Thank you Jen!

Tiffanie has been walking my 2 dogs for a couple years now. She takes very good care of them and they love her. On a few occasions she has dog sat for me while I was out of town and my dogs come home smelling so nice because she bathes them.
