“Jennifer did a great job and my cat felt comfortable enough with her to enjoy some sunshine on the front porch. Jennifer even took the most beautiful pictures of my cat and sent them to me.”
“Sarina was incredible! She was so thoughtful! I never dreamed I'd be able to find someone who took their pet-sitting job as serious as she does! She sent me very in-depth updates after each visit, as well as pictures of their interractions together. She told me how he responded to each of his various toys, what she did to engage him and how he responded, and some funny anecdotes about his overall silliness! I felt very well informed during my entire trip away. I will DEFINITELY be rebooking with Sarina! I was able to feel at ease even though I was miles away from my baby. I'm so glad I found her!!”
“Christopher and his daughters went above and beyond our expectations during their drop-in visits with our cats. Oscar, Midnight, and Lilly received care and attention and we received peace of mind during our vacation. We would highly recommend Christopher to care for your fur babies. Thanks to all!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She gave us great updates on how our fur babies were doing while we were gone, and went above and beyond making sure our house was safe when an unexpected cold front brought temperatures below freezing. We'll definitely be asking for her help again when the need arises!”
“From meet and greet to the last day, Kady exceeded any and ALL expectations we had when it came to the care of our two cats!! She made sure to let us know when she was headed over, provided us with LOTS of great (and very cute) pictures and made sure our spicy girl got her medication. Everything was perfect and she was very diligent to check in with us as well as being very detail oriented. I would highly recommend Kady again and again!! A true gem when it comes to providing care, comfort, peace of mind and love for animals!! We will definitely keep Kady in mind for future bookings!! I cannot say enough great things about her, she will take fabulous care of your pets!! 💜💜💜”

I will make sure to give meds, food, and specific care instructions extra attention as needed.
