1. Aisha N.
“Aisha was amazing with my two kittens! I booked them for a week while I travelled home for the holidays. They sent me check-in photos every day, followed all instructions given to a T, and exceeded all my expectations as a sitter! They’re a clear and punctual communicator, on time and genuinely such a lovely person :) If I ever need a sitter again I know that I’ll be contacting them again. My dust bunnies Cooper and Winona would agree!”
2. Aashree G.
“As usual, Remy was VERY excited to see Aashree and was perfectly fine when I left him for the afternoon. As long as she’s available, I’ll continue to use her!”
3. Iris O.
“Iris has been dog sitting Frankie in my apartment for a while now and she’s been my first and only choice ever since day one! Frankie is a nervous dog but he immediately loved Iris and she loves him too so I feel great leaving him with her looking after him. She’s really flexible as my job as a nanny and student means my days are never the same. I recently went away on vacation and decided to have Frankie stay with Iris at her house and she’s sent so many photos and videos I can tell he’s having the best time and he’s being so well looked after! He loves being with her and it means I can feel happy knowing he’s safe and with someone who really loves him! Recommend 10000000% !!!”

“Emily was great! She followed all the instructions I left for checking on my cats. During her drop-in visit, she played with them and sent plenty of pictures. She is moving soon, otherwise I would be a repeat client!”
7. Rosanna G.
“Absolutely fabulous! I cannot say enough good things about Rosanna. My cats are very shy with new people and prefer to hide. But within one day of Rosanna visiting, they were literally eating out of the palm of her hand! She went about and beyond in the care of our cats and we will definitely be hiring her again.”

“Justine is an AWESOME pet sitter! The animals really connect with her and she goes out of her way for the pets. We have a dog and a cat and they really show how much they love for her so it is evident of her loving and caring ways. I think twice if my dog does not seem to like someone but they love Justine!”

19. Chrisha Marhea N.
“Chrisha is one of the most kind and patient people I know! She often takes care of my pets who tend to get fussy if they are taken off their regular routine so she always makes sure they get fed, taken on walks, etc at their normal time. She is one of the few people I trust around them because of how amazing she is with them, they love her! She is reliable, works well with schedules, friendly, and most importantly she loves animals.”
