“Shykala watched my cat and she took so much thought in her care. She took the time to spend time with my cat so that she wasn’t bored while I was away. She sent a bunch of photos so I knew my pet was well taken care of. I will definitely be booking her again to watch my pet”

11. Teresa S.
“Teresa is wonderful. In fact, she is magical. Our cat Gabby usually will not come out for anyone other than for my husband and myself. But with Teresa, she came up to her almost immediately. We could not believe all the beautiful pictures and videos Teresa texted us of Gabby, especially of Gabby "talking'' and purring. It is obvious that Gabby saw Teresa as a kindred spirit. This was our first time hiring a pet sitter for Gabby, but it certainly won't be the last. Teresa communicated with us during and after every visit. She left our house immaculate. She even printed for us adorable photos of Gabby that she took during her visits.. We feel totally comfortable having Teresa take care of our cat, and will hire her again in a heartbeat.”
12. Courtney B.
“Courtney went above and beyond what our expectations were. She took care of our dog, sent pictures and had a thorough report after every drop in.”
13. Anne B.
“Anne was very communicative and thorough! She sent a report card every day after checking in on our cats while we were out of town and spent plenty of time playing with them and giving them lots of attention. We highly recommend and will definitely be using her for future out of town trips!”
14. Crystal L.
“Crystal is the best sitter I'll ever find for my two kitties! She is so wonderful and attentive to my babies, plays with them, and even brings catnip! I love reading the updates she leaves after each visit and the pictures she sends help so much when I'm away and miss my kiddos so much.”
15. Sarah H.
“Sarah was very loving and attentive when checking on my cat. She paid attention to the care details and provided great updates! I appreciated how much she cared and made sure she did a good job. Will definitely book with her again!”
16. Stephanie N.
“Updates were great and she seemed to work well with my dog. Loved everything about this and will definitely continue requesting.”
17. Rebecca S.
“Rebecca did a 10/10 job! She kept us in the loop and took excellent care of our kitties. Loved the photo updates and notes. She took extra care to make sure our shy cat Toasty also got accomodations to ensure she got her food when she was hesitant to eat where she normally does. Would happily hire again for our future trips!”
18. Kyra W.
“Kyra has taken care of my dogs numerous times. She is patient and trustworthy. She is extremely responsible and will care for your pets as her own. In addition to pet sitting, she has also house sat for me, and I couldn't be happier.”
19. Taylor F.
“Taylor is an animal lover more than almost anyone else I know. He is kind, compassionate, gentle and patient. His own dogs are so very loved and cared for and I have full confidence he would do the same for other dogs. I would have him watch my own dogs anytime without hesitation and I would know that they are being treated as good as I would myself.”
20. Anders e.
“Anders is so amazing with animals that his house is known as the princess house because he attracts all the lost animals and returns them to the pawrents. He is the biggest push over with his own dogs and frequently let's them sit in all the comfy places while he sits on the floor. Anders loves all types of animals, big or small, and treats them so nicely. He will treat your pets as his own, and will love on them the entire time he's with them!”
