“I have used Theresa to watch my dogs for many years. I just had her watch my two young labs Rizzo and Wrigley. They absolutely loved her. She played their favorite game of frisbee everyday. She kept in communication with me and sent pictures. She watched them in my house as I was gone for a couple of weeks. My babies and my house were well taken care of. I would recommend Theresa over and over! She is amazing!”

5. Seren J.
“From the moment we met Jesse, we could tell he was going to be just the person for us. Jesse is absolutely amazing. I could not be more thrilled with how he cared for my pets and home. My dog is a bit high maintenance, but Jesse did a great job with her walks and making sure she got her medication. When we got home from our trip, Cleo was super relaxed and happy, a sign to me that she was well-loved while we were gone. My grumpy old cat even warmed up to Jesse, a rare occurrence indeed! Jesse asked thoughtful questions during our first meeting, and when he came back for the full run-through; questions I hadn't even thought of! Our home was spotless and my baby plants were watered and taken care of just like I had hoped. I am already making plans to book Jesse again for my future trips. He did a great job sending pictures, giving me daily updates, and responding quickly to my texts if I had additional information or a question. I believe you will not go wrong in choosing to hire Jesse to take care of your critters and home.”
