“Kyla was amazing. she took very good care of my dog while I was away. she always updated me with photos daily and is very sweet and kind. Definitely will always use her to house sit when im gone. she is the best! my pup was well taken care of and I could tell he enjoyed her too!”

“Kathy is simply the best!!! I can tell from the photos she sent during our trip that our Critters absolutely adored her based on the smiles on their sweet faces and we agree that she is a rare gem! Not only did she take pawfect care of our Pack, our Nest was nicely cared for as well!! I especially appreciate that she is able to spend so much time with the Critters as Critter Sitting is her main gig! Highly recommend! We’ve already booked future dates and are all looking forward to seeing Kathy again! 🐾🐾💚”

“Such kind, loving care by Victoria for our Graysen while we were away. It was a great piece of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. We would get periodic updates and pictures which really helped to ease our minds. Fantastic pet sitter!”

“Alexandra was amazing, and I would definitely love to have her sit for my cats again. She bonded with them right away, even my shy little girl cat, who is usually intensely shy around strangers. She was very conscientious and sent me a lot of pics and gave me updates so that I always had peace of mind, especially about my older special needs cat. She was very kind and flexible when I realized I needed an extra day of house sitting, and even left a gift for my cats and me when she left. I'm very impressed and grateful and would highly recommend her.”

“Jess did a amazing job taking care of all of our fur babies! She was great at communicating her daily plans to us, and was consistently updating us with pictures. Our animals definitely felt comfortable with her! She was very tidy and we could barely tell she was even there when we got home! Would definitely recommend her to friends and family and will definitely be booking with her in the future!”

“Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.”

“Courtney did a great job taking care of our dogs and our house while we were out of town. She followed all directions and made sure they got all the love and attention they needed. I would definitely trust Courtney to watch our home and pups again.”
“We can't say enough about Melissa. We were leaving during snow and ice for a long time planned vacation. Melissa made it to our home, took care of our pets and even went above and beyond to make sure we didn't worry while on vacation. She sent videos and pics daily, stayed in touch with us and we appreciate how happy our pets were. Thank you thank you thank you!”

“Bonnie is amazing. She took extra special care of our fur baby and our home. She went above and beyond. She sent pictures and texts assuring us that all was well. We would highly recommend Bonnie! We will definitely be booking with her again.”

“This was the first time I'd used a house sitter for my 9 month old poodle. Chondra did an excellent job! She sent me photos. On my ring camera I could see she was giving my puppy lots of love, and walks. Since she works from home anyway, all she needed was a wifi hookup. The house was in perfect shape when I got home, she'd vacuumed and straightened everything... With a puppy it's a constant battle. I've already booked her for another trip. I highly recommend.”
