“Andrew has been incredible these past few weeks. I lucked out by finding him--he has ALWAYS made himself available for all my last-minute pet care needs. He has shown up on time each and every time, and he even helped our cleaning team get to know our new dog. He always provides an update for me, putting my mind at ease when I can't get away. Andrew and I have not even met in person yet, but I trust him implicitly!”

“Jenna did a fantastic job watching our cat Captain. Our feeding routine is a little complicated, but she followed our instructions perfectly. We love that she sent us pictures every day, and our cat really seemed to like her. We had to change our travel plans at the last minute and she was super accommodating. Thank you Jenna!”


18. Roxy D.


“Roxy took incredible care of my cat, Ruthie! When I got home from my trip Ruthie was relaxed and happy to see me, which I 100% attribute to the thoughtful care that Roxy provided. She sent thorough updates and adorable photos (some of the best I’ve ever seen of Ruthie) and I can’t wait to book her again. She even brought some packages inside for me! 10/10 can’t recommend enough ?”
