“She was amazing! She took the time to start building a good rapport with our kitty (who is not the easiest cat around) and took care of her as if she were her own. We got updates and pictures with every visit.”
“Ellie did a magnificent job taking care of our cats while we were traveling for a few days. She is obviously an animal lover, and took the time to make sure our very needy cat was tended to and loved on. Ellie is communicative, not afraid to ask clarifying questions, and doesn’t rush out after the basic needs have been met; knowing she took the time to not just feed cats and clean boxes, but to be social and loving with our needy cat was such a huge relief (as it’s something we have struggled with other pet sitters in the past). We look forward to working with her again!”

She went above and beyond for me when I had car trouble and couldn’t be back the day that I had planned on coming back home! She was super flexible and very understanding. I genuinely appreciated it. I don’t know what I would have done without her. 10/10, 5 STARS, I would recommend! My animals all loved her and she was very thoughtful and communicative. 😊👏
Olivia has been doing drop-in visits for my puppy for the past few months and has been amazing! She is reliable, communicative, and always makes me feel at ease when I’m away. She always makes sure my puppy is well taken care of, gets plenty of attention, and keeps me updated during visits. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!
