7. Jennifer T.


“We couldn’t have been happier with Jennifer as our cat sitter! From our very first meet and greet, we knew we’d found the perfect person. Jennifer is professional, thoughtful, patient and kind. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and it’s clear she takes her role very seriously. Our cat had only been with us for a couple of months, so leaving her behind for a long-planned trip made us a bit nervous. But Jennifer put us completely at ease. Thanks to her, we were able to fully enjoy our trip without a single worry. We’re so grateful for her excellent care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. We’ll definitely be using her services again in the future!”


8. Tonie B.


“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”

I am available during weekends to let pets out in 2-4 hour intervals. I walk my pet daily, and feed them twice a day.
