Sarah went above and beyond to take care of our 3 cats while we were out. She also possesses a magical quality that brought one of our VERY shy cats out of hiding! I am extremely thankful that someone as caring and reliable as Sarah was able to look after our cats.

Angelee was great! She is very communicative, she sent us photos and videos of Savannah while we were away. Savannah is not the easiest cat to get along with, and she might be moody when she’s alone. But Angelee took her time to establish a connection with Savannah, play with her favorite toys, and make sure she was cared for. Thank you so much, Angelee! ✨

I had an excellent first experience hiring Tiffany to look after my cats while I was out of town. When Tiffany came by for a meet and greet, I could tell that she truly understands cats and their unique needs. Tiffany was communicative, arrived on time for drop-ins, and shared thoughtful and informative updates.

Jessica took good care of my two cats and my kitchen while I was away. She was flexible in returning my key the following day in case my late-night flight was cancelled. She took pictures daily showing that even my shy cat gave her the thumbs up.

Addelynn was great watching my cats, and would definitely recommend her! Super easy communication to schedule and coordinate keys with her. She took care of both my cats & sent updates and photos for my peace of mind while I was away. It seems like she already became close friends with my cat Ricky who was purring in her lap after only 2 visits, which makes having to be away even easier <3

Katherine really helped me out by stepping in last minute to check on my kitten and was so easy to work with. She confirmed all the relevant details, asked good questions, played with my little guy during her visit and made sure everything was in good order before leaving. Can’t thank you enough, Katherine!!

Phillip was amazing with my kitty Scooter. He took care of her while I was away for a week and I was astonished at the magic that he worked on her. She is a sweet girl that can take some time to warm up to people, but he got her to play with him in no time. I will definitely be booking Phillip again the next time Scooter is in need of a sitter, and I highly recommend him for any other cat owners in the area.

America was wonderful with our two cats George & Milo! We were gone for a 4 day trip and needed someone that could keep an eye on them since this would be the first time they had been alone together at night. Luckily America was available for house sitting while we were away, she is very sweet, communicative and dependable. Our place was left in perfect condition and the boys seemed very happy & content themselves. We would absolutely recommend her for your fuzzy companions and we will be sure to have her visit our boys again!

This was my first time leaving any animal with a sitter and with only being checked on. Sarah was super nice and patient with me. Pepperoni (my cat) was happy and it was an easy transition for him! Highly recommend and will be booking again for my next trip ❤️

Kate was awesome with our sweet little senior kitty Chai! Chai needs a lot of special care right now and Kate skillfully managed everything. Chai is usually not happy to meet new people, but she liked Kate right away! I’m so glad to have someone to call on when Chai needs care in the future.
