“Maelee took wonderful care of my cat Darcy. She sent lots of photos and a really detailed description of her drop-in, which made me feel so comfortable knowing Darcy was so well cared for! I had to change my trip and she was quick to respond and help me out. Thank you, Maelee!”


“Alyssa did a great job with my shy cats. She kept in touch and sent pictures. If the job had been longer she would have won them over completely. I will definitely call on her again.”


“We took a chance and hired Elise without meeting her first due to time constraints. She was awesome with our cats! We have 5 cats, 6 litter boxes, daily medication, and occasional vomiting/peeing outside the box. Elise handled everything matter-of-factly, like she has seen and handled it all. When we returned, our cats were happy, healthy, and all accounted for. Elise was on time for every visit, spent the right amount of time, and sent me pictures and an update after every visit. Our house looked just like I left it, with everything clean and in order. We would definitely hire Elise again and I highly recommend her.”


“Kelsey took such good care of my cat while we were away! She was able to get our shy little cat to come out of her shell and live her best life! I’ll definitely be looking for Kelsey again if I need to re-book.”

Linda C.
“I've known Linda for over a decade now, and have seen her in action as a loving, responsible pet owner herself. Recently, I ran into a schedule challenge and asked if she could come feed my dog, let her outside, and play with her for a bit -- maybe 30 minutes total. She did exactly, that, and sent me some fun video of my girl zooming while enjoying her play time. My dog is happy to see her, which I know means she trusts her, and I do, too. I definitely will have her visit again, and will consider boarding my dog with her if I need to be gone for a few days. I know she will be well cared for by Linda!”
