I love that when I’m gone I don’t need to worry, every trip is always so easy to come home knowing my kittens have everything they need while I’m gone. Thanks, Jackie!”
“I can’t recommend Krystal enough as a dog walker and caregiver! She went above and beyond in providing exceptional care for my two senior dogs while I was away on vacation. Her kindness truly shines through in everything she does. She took care of my dogs as if they were her own, ensuring they were comfortable, safe, and loved every step of the way. When an unexpected situation arose, Krystal took charge and handled it with grace and efficiency. She was incredibly understanding and worked with me and my budget, which meant the world to me. I never imagined I would meet someone as compassionate and dedicated as Krystal and her wonderful family. I am beyond grateful for her help with my doggies, and I’m certain they are too! If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and goes the extra mile, Krystal is the one to trust. Thank you, Krystal, for your remarkable care and kindness!”
“Genuinely was and is the best babysitter for my cat I ever have had. We spent hours on a road trip trying to find the perfect person for him, and Daiana took on the challenge for my special needs fur baby. Made him feel safe, loved, and cared for as if he was her own. She’s very thorough on making sure he had all his needs met, asked questions about his personality, routine, and general nuts & bolts about him. Updated us constantly and routinely about how his stay was doing and how his reaction was to the new environment. What my husband and I appreciate the most about her was the fact she had him relaxed and calm and took her time with him. Letting him come out on his own and being gentle with him made my heart swell with joy. And hearing he cuddled her, gave her lots of love, was such a lovely thing for us to hear. She definitely has the magic touch with our fur babies. I would recommend her 100% to watch your family member in her care and watch. I’m definitely going to rebook her as my permanent babysitter for Sero. ❤️”
“Alexa did a fantastic job looking after my two kitties while I was away for a couple of weeks. I highly recommend her for anyone stressed about making sure their cats are taken care of while out of town!”
“I had a lovely experience with Cyndie and am so glad I booked with her! I really appreciated the detailed descriptions she left of her visits and photos. It was a huge weight off my shoulders knowing that my kitty was well-taken care of while I was away on vacation for the weekend. Would highly recommend her services!”

“Kai was very communicative, always quick to respond, and sent lots of photos and videos of my cat Felicity while he was watching her! He was friendly and flexible with timing, which I really appreciated. My cat was very shy and a bit anxious to be staying away from home but Kai was watchful and did his best to make sure she was comfortable and cared for!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Linda as my pet and house sitter while I was on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we first communicated, she was incredibly responsive and friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Linda took exceptional care of my cat, ensuring he was well-fed, entertained, and loved in my absence. It was clear that she has a genuine affection for animals, and my cat was very comfortable with her. Additionally, she maintained my home beautifully, leaving it spotless upon my return. Knowing that my cat and home were in such capable hands allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Linda to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“I think Mel did a good job. Our Woody seems happy. I was amazed at the amount of fur she too off him, as I had brushed him often but was cautious about "overdoing" because my husband did that once and "drew blood" on his back, near his tail. Maybe this will cause his "urp'ing" to diminish. Judy”
