Emily came to my rescue very last minute when other arrangements fell through. She was extremely responsive, detailed, and calmed all of my nerves. My babies aren’t used to having others care for them but Emily came and spent time with us to fix that. I would recommend her to anyone!

Our rescue pup can be pretty nervous with strangers. Ivan always takes his time with Raspberry and is very kind and understanding. It gives us a lot of peace of mind when we leave her home alone. ❤️

Really sweet, flexible and considerate sitter. She not only followed instructions well but also took the time to get to know our kitties and allowed them the time to feel comfortable around her. Will definitely rebook Sydni in the future.

Sarah sat for our two kittens while we were away for the holidays and we couldn’t be happier. She was so communicative, sent lots of pictures & videos, and gave us constant updates. It really put us at ease for the first time we were away from our kittens. We have already booked another sit with Sarah. We can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Sarah!

There aren’t enough kind words to describe Jessica. Super compassionate, friendly, and incredibly responsible and hard-working. She came to catsit for us and went above and beyond for our little cat. She fed her, played with her, replaced her water, tidied up her mess (sorry, Jessica), and all around I felt unbelievably comfortable knowing she was there. Tons of photos and videos. Do yourself a favor and definitely hire her!

Ashley is the best!!! She was so communicative with pics and updates while watching my dog, and I was able to relax knowing she was in great, safe hands. She’s very flexible and easy to work with. She’s also very attentive and responsible - one time I accidentally forgot food and she noticed/called me within 5 minutes after dropping my dog off!! Your pup will be in the best care with Ashley :)

Katie was amazing with my cat, I could tell from all the pictures and updates that my cat had an absolute blast with Katie! It was clear that Katie genuinely cared about my cat and made sure she was comfortable, happy and okay in my absence. I will definitely trust her with my cat when I’m traveling again!

Eric dropped in and took care of my cat while I was away. He gave great updates, followed all feeding instructions, and checked the litter box each time. I only asked him to clean the litter one day since the other two visits were half days, but he went above and beyond to make sure it was always clean. My cat is typically weary of new people and will hide, but he greeted Eric each visit and came out of his shell. I highly recommend hiring Eric, as he will take good care of your pet(s). I will be using his services going forward and I’m happy I found a reliable sitter.

Gabrielle is one of the most responsible, caring, and nurturing people I know. She has cat-sat for me before and she went above and beyond to make sure my cat Isaac had all his supplements, medicines, and needs taken care of. She isn’t your average pet-sitter, she genuinely loves all animals and finds tenderness in each one. She provides daily updates, sends pictures, and will love your little one as much as you do. Highly recommend!
