“Sara did an amazing job with our two kitties!! She really Gets cats in a way that many of our previous sitters didn't 😭 our shy cat who usually hides from new people came out for every visit and even played and allowed Sara to pet her. We were so happy to see that and also to come home to everything looking tidy and organized, with the kitties in a good mood instead of looking harassed and stressed 🙏🏻 Can't say enough good things about Sara - great vibes AND great work - thank you!!”
“Cece is very sweet. She followed all of my directions and took care of our kittens while we were briefly out of town. She also managed to impress our one kitten who is apprehensive of strangers. She sent pictures which we greatly appreciated. Thank you again!”
“I booked Wojciech for a drop in visit with my dog Crew. He came over to meet Crew a couple of days before the drop in visit date. They got along great. On the date of the visit he notified me that he was there and everything was fine. He sent me pictures of Crew and he looked happy. I will definitely be booking with Wojciech again!”
“We have rebooked Amanda many times because she always takes loving and attentive care of our two cats. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy our travels knowing our kitties are well taken care of at home! Amanda checks off all of the tasks we've asked he to do, and delivers a detailed summary of her visit with lots of photos. We would highly recommend her!”
“Shannon was amazing with my dog Duke. I was honestly very nervous having to get a dog sitter for the first time since my dog isn’t the best with strangers but Shannon was awesome with him!”

“Emily was so phenomenal in her communication to me and made sure to play with the cats and give them love. She greatly decreased the anxiety I had leaving them and I couldn't vouch for her more !!”
“She is the first cat sitter we’ve ever had that managed to see, feed, and pet one of our cats who is terrified of everyone except me and my husband. As a consequence, she is the best cat sitter we’ve ever had!”
“Jinx did an amazing job taking care of our "cowboy corgi", Taco. She consistently sent photos at key moments like bedtime and feeding time to let us know he was okay. She also gave him lots of scritches, and one his heart. Jinx also paid careful attention to our care instructions, and was trustworthy in our home overnight. 100% would hire again.”

Lindsey was very easy to work with, and I came home to everything in order. Throughout the trip, she was incredibly communicative and provided me with thorough updates on how my cats were doing. I felt they were in good hands, and I appreciated her attention to detail. I will definitely be using her again.
Jeffrey was kind and responsible with my dog Oso. I also appreciate his patience and understanding when there was an issue with getting into my home for the visit (I accidentally had forgotten to replace the batteries in my garage door opener so had to direct him where to find a spare key). Thank you!!
Kristin has been an absolute blessing for our family and our dog. From day one, she has been reliable, professional, caring, and genuinely invested in our dog's happiness and well-being. It's clear that Kristin truly loves animals. She takes the time to understand our dog's personality, needs, and routines. We always receive updates, and it's reassuring to know our pup is in such capable and caring hands. Kristin is consistently punctual, communicative, and dependable, which gives us tremendous peace of mind. Whether it's a regular walk or helping out when our schedule changes unexpectedly, she is always accommodating and goes above and beyond. The difference in our dog's happiness and confidence since working with Kristin has been remarkable. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional dog sitter. Five stars aren't enough!
Jasmine took wonderful care of our two kittens! They seemed comfortable with her right from the start (no easy task as they can be quite shy), and she played with them and took care of all their needs as instructed. She also sent us lots of cute photos and gave helpful updates throughout our time away. Highly recommend! Thank you Jasmine!
Another amazing experience having Spencer watch our cats. Every visit included the full 30 minutes, thoughtful summaries, and lots of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while away. Litter boxes and cat bowls were cleaned diligently every day, and Spencer was incredibly patient and creative with our more temperamental cat. Loving, responsible, and professional, cannot recommend enough!!! Thank you
Zoe was wonderful with my kitty Boba! This was the longest I’ve been away from her, and knowing Boba was getting such great care and quality time during the daily drop-in visits made me feel at ease. I appreciated Zoe following all instructions carefully and sharing updates and photos after each visit. I’d definitely trust her with Boba again.
