“Erica was wonderful again with the care of my pets. I have her booked for multiple stays in the future and have recommended her to others. Thank you Erica for your kind and compassionate visits.”
“Our cat is usually very very shy and would never show herself to people other than family, but Kati was able to befriend her during her short stay, which was a relieve for us. She made sure our cat had some nice company while we were away and we would definitely ask Kati to take care of our cat again on a different trip.”
“I am so anxious with leaving any of my family (cats) alone. Leora was so good with them! Shes been communicative the whole way... Sent photos every day and gave us updates. I am so glad we found her. Thank you so much. Sincerely!!!”
“Our cats are good judges of character, and they LOVE Emily. We love the pictures she takes of them, the great job she does of caring for them and playing with them, and how professional and trustworthy she's proven to be”
“Giada went above and beyond our expectations. She came out after a horrific weather event here last week in Palatine. She even sent us pics and updates of the storm damage done to our property too as well as telling us our kitty was safe!”
“Claudia is the best! She took good care of my cat and sent detailed reports with pictures. She clearly loves animals and is great at what she does. My cat loves her! Thank you, Claudia!!”
“What an easy visit! Kittens got food and some attention while we were gone for a long weekend. Katerina was super easy to work with and followed instructions to a tee, would definitely book again!”
“Jason agreed to check in on the cats semi-last minute - and did a great job as usual! I definitely recommend him and will be hiring him for more cat care in the future!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She was very professional and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire time (about 2 weeks). We had a walkthrough about 3 months before our trip and she reached out to do a refresher run through shortly before we left to make sure she didn't miss anything, which was greatly appreciated. She left thorough notes after each visit. My kitties are generally pretty shy when it comes to new people but they warmed up to her very quickly! Would definitely have Jennifer care for my babies again!”
“Brianna is a superhero for my cat today! She just saved my baby boy from starving. 🥹 It was a last-minute booking, and I was so glad she was able to meet my expectations or i'd say she's beyond my expectations! We didn't have a pre-visit; I just gave her instructions, and she nailed it. She even wanted to do something extra, like take out the trash. I will definitely recommend her, and I hope to see her again to take care of our cat. Thank you again, Brianna!”
“Anna was great! Anna communicated well, both before and during her visits with our cat, Mia. Anna took good care of her and made sure she got her medicine and had enough to eat and drink. Our cat is wary of strangers and usually hides in their presence. It was so nice to see Anna’s photos of our cat welcoming her and eating the food Anna placed out for her. Overall, Anna is easy to do business with and accommodating. She even agreed to feed our turtle while visiting. We would be happy to use Anna for future visits and recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Jessica is caring, loving and attentive to our two cats. One of them has separation anxiety and Jessica helped him stay happy and healthy while I was out of town. 100% recommended!”
“Brianna was so responsive and accommodating. She took great care of my cat and sent photos and even a sweet video. You could see that Brianna cared and did a great job! Thank you so much!”
“Eran is very nice and responsible person. She took care of our cat Jess for a week, while we went on vacation. She always replied to our calls and messages in very short time, so we knew everything is going well with both Eran and cat. Eran followed up all the instructions, we left (including cat, house and landscaping care). Upon our return we found the healthy cat and super clean house. Excellent service, well done assignment, thank you Eran!”
“Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She made sure to follow through instructions and clarify some additional questions during my stay away as well. This helped me feel reassured.”
