Elisabeth H.Star Sitter
“Lisa is the first person I think of when I need a caregiver for my little fluff ball. You can tell she really loves animals. She even asked if he had any special needs or had any behaviors to be aware of. I love that she has a large fenced in back yard for him to run around in. My dog feels right at home in Lisa's care. If you're still trying to figure out who you'd feel comfortable caring for your dog, from one pet owner to another, trust me when I say Lisa is your gal.”


Victoria K.
“Victoria is a wonderful pet sitter! Our dog loves her! She is reliable and makes our dog feel comfortable. She is dedicated to providing the best care possible as she always asks about any updates to feeding schedules, diet, and other specific needs our dog has. She has even gone above and beyond one time when our dog had stomach issues and made QUITE the mess. She washed him and even took care of the carpet. She is my go to anytime I need someone to take care of my dog.”


Kaydin H.
“Kaydin has proved to be one of if not the best care giver for pets in general that I've personally met. She treats every pet as if it was her own (abundance of affection) as well as ensuring that the pet is always in good health and is happy, I'm sure this is due to her previous experience working with dogs at a temporary care center. My personal experience utilizing kaydin to help with my two very high maintenance doodles, one of which is getting fairly old and needs closer attention more so than the other. However I neglected to mention that to her before I left, so a few hours pass and the older dog started having a lot of trouble breathing and Kaydin was able to give him immediate attention that almost instantly helped him breathe normally on his own. 10/10”


Alyssa M.

“Thanks Alyssa for taking care of Pita. You arrived on time both visits and Pita felt very comfortable on your company. Definitively I'll contact you when Pita needs care at home.”


Medi G.
“For the entirety of time that I have known Medi, over 10 years of friendship, she has always had animals and their care on the forefront of her mind. She takes into account how pets are used to their routines and adapts her skillset to best take of them. This includes communicating throughly with owners to learn about their pets and getting to know the pet personally while she looks after them. Medi is always willing to go above and beyond for the animals that are placed in her care, as she cares for them as much as she cares for her own. I couldn't recommend Medi as a pet sitter enough for a pet owner!”


Emily M.
“Emily M is one of the most responsible people I know. Not only would I trust her with my pet I trust her with my child. One of the things that make Emily M so amazing is her way of anticipating a person's/pets needs. She goes out of her way to make people/pets more comfortable. To not pick Emily to watch after your pet is depriving them of a remarkable experience.”
