9. Kristall N.

“Kristall was amazing while I was out of the country for a week. My calico, who usually takes months to warm up to someone, took to Kristall quickly. Kristall was consistent with her visit times and sent pictures with each visit. She had no trouble learning and implementing my somewhat complicated feeder system and litter box. It's clear that Kristall loves animals, and I was very impressed with how quickly Leah (my calico) warmed up to her. I highly recommend Kristall as a pet sitter! Billy”


10. Jenna L.
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with my dog Nix while I was out of town! She treated him like her own—so loving, attentive, and caring. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Nix was happy, well-exercised, and clearly adored. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly loves animals! I already have her booked out to watch Nix again in the upcoming months!”


11. Karen A.

“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”


12. Hampton S.

“Just awesome. No other words!!!”


13. Amanda N.

14. Brent & David W.

“Outstanding! They were punctual, communicative, and followed instructions that were somewhat complicated. My kitties were well taken care of! they stopped by the day that the hurricane was passing near Jacksonville and were willing to bring in my couple of pieces of patio furniture and then place it back out (so the wind didn’t carry them away during the storm.) Highly recommend to others and would absolutely book again.”
