“Andrea was super kind and communicative, and really patient with our relatively high energy/touch sensitive dog. I really appreciated her taking the time to let me explain her care during our M&G. She sent pictures regularly and played Mizzy's favorite games with her! I'd absolutely book with Andrea again :)”

“Emilia is a person who has experience in pet care, she has always shown great responsibility in caring for them, in my case she was always aware of what my pet needed, taking care of them with great patience and love. Her sensitivity towards these little animals and her way of handling them makes her special for this job. She is a completely trustworthy person.”

“I'm the 40 years that I have known Jackie, she has always shown great care for her animals. She is meticulous with their needs. She is also very dependable in her work. She would make a great pet sitter or dog walker.”
11. Jessica M.
“Jessica was great! She was responsive and I loved getting updates and pictures from her when she came to check on my cat Arya. One day she wasn’t able to get in my house because of an issue with my automatic lock and even came back a few hours later because she wanted to make sure she was able to check on Arya. I’ll definitely book with her again next time I go out of town!”
12. Sarah C.
“Sarah helped us by taking care of our cat on a last minute demand. She has a great communication, and we were very happy with the pictures we had during the visits, showing that our cat Pivoine was feeling good with her! We totally recommend Sarah. Thank you again!”
13. Jillian N.
“Jillian has taken care of our cats on multiple occasions. I am not exaggerating when I say I am certain she takes better care of them than we do. Not only is she very responsible and reliable about doing the necessary things like feeding them, giving them water, cleaning their litter box etc, she also truly loves animals and gives them a lot of affection and attention. I swear our cats miss her every time she leaves. I can’t think of a better person to care for our furry family members!”
14. Marideth W.
“We had a wonderful experience with Marideth. She was incredibly attentive and caring towards our little boy, ensuring he was well taken care of during our absence. We returned home to find everything just as we left it, a testament to her respect for our home. Additionally, her regular text updates and photos kept us informed and reassured about our pet’s well-being. We highly recommend her services.”
15. Meredith M.
“Meredith is fantastic with pets. She has her own dog that she cars for, and cared for mine daily when we first got him as a puppy. My wife and I both work full time, so those first couple of months with a puppy would have been so much harder if we didn’t have Meredith to rely on. She would come over and walk him every day and spend time playing with him. Our dog is now old enough to go to day care a few times a week and is great with other dogs, thanks in large part to the great care that he received with Meredith. I highly recommend Meredith to care for your dog too.”
16. Amanda G.
“She was so wonderful with Kitten!! Kitten can get overstimulated and is not always as sweet as she can be and Amanda really rolled with the punches! <3”
17. Elena B.
“Thank you for taking care of our little guys on such short notice! It made a difficult time much easier.”
18. Melissa T.
“Melissa was great! She is reliable, dependable and trustworthy. It was nice knowing my pet was in good hands while I was away! Thanks again, Melissa.”
19. Isabella B.
“Isabella did an amazing job watching our cats and made sure they got plenty of playtime during our vacation. She did a great job with communication and sending us photos and was very accommodating with multi-day visits. Would definitely book again!”
20. Amanda C.
“Amanda did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. I would definitely hire her again!”
