“Jesse really went above & beyond w my senior cat - played with him every visit & sent pics of him chilling in her lap. She even asked if she could bring him some treats and took notes about his specific care when we met - she's that conscientious! She clearly loves animals and I trust and recommend her completely. Blackey sends a shoulder purr to you, Jesse!”
17. Leah W.
“Leah was great with my cat Peach! Would recommend :)”
18. Sarah P.
“Sarah and I have been friends for over a decade and in that time she has cared for my pets numerous times. I swear she is a cat whisperer! My 2 cats were terrified of everyone and somehow Sarah was able to coax them out of their hiding spots and was giving them pets on her very first visit. And now I have a dog who adores her too. On top of her love of animals, she is responsible and communicative. Finding a new pet sitter can be overwhelming, but I ensure you, you cannot go wrong with Sarah.”
19. Hallie K.
“I highly recommend Hallie! Excellent communication throughout, and my cat seemed completely at ease in the pictures sent while I was away. Trustworthy and attentive - will definitely be booking again!”
20. Arantxa I.
“Arantxa helped take care of our two dogs, Ozzy (husky) and Mila (German shepherd mix) for a little over 4 years. AND WE CANNOT THANK HER ENOUGH! She took care of them, played with them, walked them, fed them, and above all loved them as if her own! Truly a dog and an animal lover to her core. Incredible responsible and reliable, we cannot recommend her enough. Whether our dogs stayed with her during the day, or whether they would spend the night, or even whether she would stay at our home whenever we would go on longer trips, we always felt the reassurance that Ozzy and Mila would be taken care of. She always gave us that peace of mind. Thank you, Arantxa!”
