1. Anne R.
“I met Anne the day after my 18th birthday and our friendship has been filled with experiences with animals. We bonded over a love of dogs when we were younger and watching her raise a kitten truly made me a cat lover. Anne connects with, understands, and communicates with pets in a special way. She is a born care-giver and is a reliable and responsive pet sitter every time we go on vacation.”

“Jeanne is a fantastic dog sitter! We are repeat customers of hers and would highly recommend her to others. Went for a couple days the first time and a whole week then next and she was great both times. She is responsive and makes sure each detail is not missed with your furry friend’s routine. Not to mention she will leave your house better than you left with her, very respectful and caring. Highly recommend for overnight or even just a walk, thanks Jeanne!”

“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care our pets received! Our three cats (Lilith, Henry, and Hazel) and two dogs (June Bug and Peanut) were so well looked after. It's always nerve-wracking to leave pets behind, but we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. The updates and photos were a huge comfort, and it was clear our pets were having a great time. We highly recommend Will's services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!”


18. Jacob F.

“Amazing sitter! All my animals loved him. He was really good about communicating with us. He sent videos of him playing with my dog and cat at the same time. We have 5 animals so it’s a lot to handle, but he did a fantastic job. Very genuine and I can tell he enjoyed spending time with them as well. Will definitely use him again.”
