Katherine is fantastic!! She is super compassionate, attentive, and punctual. She took great care of our two cats while we were away for a few days. Our diabetic cat needs three medications daily, including an oral pill and an insulin injection, and Katherine handled them like a pro. Great communication from the time we reached out to her. Highly highly recommend!

Ann is an amazing sitter! She’s cared for my pups on several occasions while I am out of town, each a very positive experience. Very dependable, responsive, and communication was great. I returned home to everything in perfect order and two very happy pups. I would absolutely recommend Ann to friends and continue booking with her in the future.

Jillian took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for a long weekend. She handled everything exactly as I had requested, provided feedback about her visits and photos each time she dropped in. She is gentle and kind, and our kitties really warmed up to her. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again for care when the need arises.

Parisa is a godsend! Amazing communication and availability- makes it super easy to schedule. Our pup loves Parisa’s visits (sometime too much when she pees from excitement!). We have a lot of guilt leaving to go to work, but knowing Parisa’s coming gives us such peace of mind. Beyond that, Parisa is super patient with our often stubborn dog. We struck gold finding her.

Katy is very responsive during the meet & greet process and while on home visits. Katy cared for my three dogs while I was on vacation, with multiple visits daily. Katy sent multiple pictures at each visit and always gave me an update on how they were doing and how it was going. I could tell from the photos that they were happy and well cared for. I came home to three happy, healthy pups and that means the world to me. I would happily have Katy care for my crew again and would definitely recommend her.

Hannah has been an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. They are always quick to respond when I reach out about a job, consistently show up when they say they will, and go above and beyond every time. Hannah is an incredibly strong communicator, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s clear they genuinely care about both the pets and the people they work with. I would highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy to care for their animals.

Patricia was so great! Helped take care of our little zoo of ferrets, chickens, lizard, fish and a cat. Our ferret needed daily medicine which was super important and Patricia was so reliable we didn’t have to worry! She was thorough and communicated well, plus shared cute pics of our critters too… would highly recommend!!

We had Nicholas care for our dog and four cats while we were away, including administering medication twice daily for one of our cats. Overall, he was reliable and made sure everyone was fed, cared for, and safe. We appreciated the photos and updates during visits. Our dog did get spooked during one walk due to a loud car and had a harder time going out after that, so more backyard time was used. There was an accident during one of the visits, which he handled and cleaned up, and we appreciated that. Overall, we’re grateful our pets were well cared for and would book again.
