“Dogs loved Carolyn! On time for all drop-in’s, kind, loving, and spent the full time and even a little longer with the pups for their comfort.”


2. Haylie H.

“Did exactly what she said she would, watched our cats, fed and watered. Sent pictures of them when they actually came around. Would recommend to anyone in the area”


3. Kristin D.

“My boyfriend and I have been traveling a lot for the holidays and unfortunately we haven’t been able to take our dog with us. During this trip, our Mina got into something she shouldn’t have and became very sick. Kristin immediately notified us and took appropriate actions. I really appreciated her communication and quick response to the matter. She even agreed to do an additional drop in to make sure Mina was doing okay!!! I truly can’t thank Kristin enough. I would recommend Kristin to any pet owner!”

7. Jenny S.


“Jenny was absolutely remarkable, I was so nervous to leave my cats with anyone, but she made me feel safe in leaving them in her hands for almost 2 weeks! She communicated daily and sent me so many pictures/videos of my babies and let me know exactly what they were up to! She took such good care of them and showed them love just as I do. 100% will be hiring her again when needed!”


8. Savannah G.

“Savannah was amazing with our fur baby! From the moment I messaged her, I knew she would be the perfect person to drop in on our Aussie puppy. Her response time to messages were very fast and all communication was clear and comfotable. Savannah is very accommodating to any extra needs your pet may have. She brought her son when I mentioned wanting our dog to socialize more with children and I couldn’t be more grateful for that experience. Savannah gave me updates before, during and after her visit. The pictures she sent of playtime were precious. If you’re looking for someone to look after your fur baby, I highly recommend Savannah!”


9. Maura L.

“Maura did an amazing job taking care of my boys!”


10. Taylar S.
“I cannot recommend Taylar enough! I've known her for many years, and I can confidently say that Taylar's the most caring and passionate person I've met when it comes to caring for animals. She's been surrounded by pets for as long as I've known her, and I believe she has gained invaluable experience from her time caring for all sorts of animals. On top of her years of experience with animals, she has a strong understanding of the health and nutritional needs of each pet! No two are the same in her eyes and she treats each with the special care and attention they deserve. If you need someone who's responsible, reliable, and who will give your pets the love and care that they deserve, then I cannot recommend Taylar enough!”


11. Sage S.

“Sage did an amazing jobs with our cats on such a short notice! We were worried to go out of town for a wedding since one of our cats was a little ill, but after meeting Sage and seeing how knowledgeable and confident she was in assisting in our cats’ care (special foods, medicines) the doubts in our minds began to fade away. She stayed in frequent communication and sent us pictures of the cats during each stay. Sage is the best!”
