“Eleanor’s watched my three kitties three times, and all three times I’ve come back to healthy, happy cats with clean litter boxes and feeding areas.

10. Sydney G.
“Sydney was so great! She showed up when she said she was going to and helped clean up after my cats made a mess in my house. They are very shy but she told me that she tried to get them to play with her which I really appreciated. I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much!”
11. Kaira L.
“Kaira was an amazing drop-in sitter to our two cats! We knew we were in great hands as soon as we met her for a meet and greet, and she gave great updates and photos every day to reassure us that our fur babies weren’t missing us too much! Will definitely look to Kaira first next time we’re out of town!!”

14. Michelle D.
“Michelle goes above and beyond. Grohl loves her and I appreciate her understanding his breed due to the fact she’s got a similar one (Aussie). Thank you so much Michelle!!”
15. Brianna B.
“Brianna was the best and took care of my 2 cats amazingly! She was great to talk to day 1 of meeting and communicated everything she was doing with my cats. My cat puked as soon as I left and she was able to tell me and cleaned it up. She also changed up the cat tunnels and blankets to be in different positions for cat enrichment, which I really appreciated!”
16. Roland S.
“Roland was great! We went out of town after spending two months helping one of our cats recover from hip surgery. It was very reassuring to know he has a good medical background in case she needed anything. He worked with her on physical therapy exercises to help with her mobility and spent a lot of time with both cats. Our other cat tends to be scared of new people, but Roland was able to get him engaged a bit and keep his stress level down. Highly recommend.”
17. Breanne T.
“Breanne is a great, attentive pet sitter. Excellent communicator and great with my cats. Would definitely book again.”
