Hilda is an absolute gem! I can’t stress enough how much I appreciate her and her love and attention towards my kitty. Hilda has been my go to in the past and will continue to be! This was the longest period of time I have spent away from my kitty in 5 years (since I adopted her) and I felt so comfortable and confident knowing Hilda was caring for her- I was actually able to relax and enjoy my vacation without worry. I trust her implicitly with my pet and couldn’t recommend her more, if you are looking for not only a highly reliable but also animal LOVING care taker for your fur baby, Hilda is the one. ❤️❤️

Hilda and Dante are hands down our dog's favorite sitters. She never wants to leave them to come home. We have moved and it's no longer convenient to get to them (3 trains and a bus), but it's always worth it because we know our dog will be happy and well cared for and we'll get regular updates and photos without needing to ask. Hilda and Dante are super reliable, communicative, prompt, and honestly take the best photos of our pup.
