1. Lori W.
“Lori was wonderful with our pups! She is an excellent communicator and trustworthy. Her updates made us feel at ease while away. We would book with Lori again in a heartbeat!”


2. Amanda S.


“This was our first time using this service. Amanda came over, met our pups and even though one of them can be a little difficult she was able to care for them and our dogs did very well with her. Would recommend to anybody”


3. Bradley M.

“Bradley was great with my crew of 7 pets including a wild Australian Shepherd. He was very respectful and on time and paid attention to all my pets (when they weren't hiding). The most shy of the cats even came out of hiding after getting used to him being in the home. I loved that Bradley sent photos for every visit and had prompt communication with me. I was very satisfied with Bradley's service and would recommend him and even hire him again in the future!”


4. Jensen F.

“Jensen is amazing with my girls she takes time & effort to go above and beyond. She also is great with dog behaviors and suggestions. She also is great for senior dogs”


5. David D.

“David was great with my furry girl, and that says a lot because she doesn't warm up to anyone too quickly! She has a lot of anxiety and she is not very well socialized, but she warmed up to him after like one day. He's definitely a dog whisperer! She seemed to be at peace with him, and he sent me pictures from ever visit which definitely put me at ease too! He's great, and I will be using him again!”


6. Kara E.

“I can't say enough about Kara, if you are looking for a dependable, caring 100% kitty lover she is your Gal! I highly recommend her to anyone and will always use her services for Newkat and Waldo in the future!”

“Leisa was fantastic. It was hard to leave our pets and she made us feel so safe. I came home and could tell they were well taken care of. Thank you for being so caring, Leisa.”


9. Leesa H.

“We booked Leesa last minute to check in on our dogs so that we could go away for an overnight trip. We haven’t used a sitter outside of our family in a long time, but we’re happy to say that our boys have a new friend! We will definitely be booking Leesa for future trips!”




10. Lauren D.

“Lauren was amazing with all three of our dogs! Don’t even look for another sitter, book. Her. Now! We absolutely found our go-to for when we’re out of town. Thank you so much for taking care of our babies like we would!”

13. Abby M.

“It was really great to have Abby drop by to look after my kitties while I was away for my wedding during the holidays. I could be free of worries during my time away knowing they were in good hands.”

“Having Alli look after our cat while we were away was a great peace of mind! She was quick to respond. She took great care of our cat that usually hides when we were away, but Alli was able to get her to come out, eat and enjoy her company.”


17. Emma M.
About: Hi! My name is Emma. I’m 31 years old. I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. Recently, my 15 year old puppy, Rufus, passed away unexpectedly. I miss being a dog mom and I’m hoping this will fill those voids! I treat every animal as my own, big or small. I have many many years of taking care of different types of breeds & im willing to learn about more! I currently work for myself doing instacart. I’m out and about all day. I have all the time in the world to come take care of your babies! As always, your pets will be treated as if they were my own. If caged; I will make sure they have the items they need in and out, otherwise, your babies will roam freely around my house. I do have a single level home with a smaller backyard but we have a dog park just down the street from us!


18. Michelle B.
“I worked with Michelle for several years im a doggie daycare/ boarding. Michelle is a very loving, kind, honest,hard working, genuine and honest person. Anyone would be lucky to have her.”


19. Tyler D.
“Tyler is a sweet animal lover and looked after my dog for a week and took amazing care of my dog!! I had no worries whatsoever during my trip and when I picked him up he was not only clean but he was acting completely normal, peaceful, healthy and like he never even missed me unlike times when I’ve left him with other people or at boarding. Tyler went the extra mile (literally) by taking him for long walks and sharing photos and updates and by asking questions throughout his stay to make sure he was adjusting well. My dog normally doesn’t like to eat or use the bathroom by himself and I forgot to mention it and she reached out with this concern which I greatly appreciated and she made sure he ate by hanging out with him while he ate. She was very receptive to any instructions I had for his care during his stay with her and I had no uneasy feeling dropping him off or picking him up. 20/10 would recommend to friends and family :)”


20. Michelle M.

“Michelle is reliable, communicative, and wonderfully sweet to my pup. Michelle is patient with my dog's reactivity and gives me great reports on how she did on walks. Eddie gives Michelle 10/10, will play again!”
