“Heather was fantastic watching over our cats. She was very communicative throughout the entire process. She spent time getting to know our cats and it showed in the photos she sent. Our of one cats can be a little temperamental with new people, but she was able to get him out of his shell and back to his playful self. Would highly recommend Heather!”

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for that level of care and love 🥹🥹🥹 Doodle can't wait to see you again!”

“I was very nervous about leaving my cat for a couple days and ended up interviewing a couple sitters. It was very important to me that whomever watched Reese was familiar with cats. I felt very comfortable speaking with Brittney and so glad I ended up booking with her. My 2 visit booking turned into every day with last minute changes that she was able to accommodate. She was able to help with certain situations and keep me up to date with how Reese was doing. I will use Brittney again!”

“Megan was absolutely amazing with our senior dog Ella! A true “star sitter” with loads of animal care experience and a genuine unmistakable love for animals. Her excellent communication every step of the way gave us the peace of mind that our Ella was in the best possible hands while we had to be out of town. Megan knew exactly what Ella needed at all times - feeding her meals - going on walks - giving her treats and belly rubs too! Additionally - she was fantastic with our two cats too! We highly recommend reaching out to Megan for any and all of your animal care needs as she is literally the best out there!”

“Brianna was a great sitter. She came in to check-in on our sweet girl Agnes (cat) while we were away. She was very patient in getting to know her and treated her kindly and with care. You can tell Brianna has a love for animals. I highly recommend Brianna for anyone looking for a sitter. She is very professional and was easy to communicate with.”
19. Matthew B.
“Matthew, my cousin, has been a dog owner and lover his whole life. Growing up, Chester, a Golden Doodle, was his best friend, but he also was great with my Family’s crazy Chocolate Lab, Maggie. After both our family dogs unfortunately passed, Matthew’s family adopted Petey, and my family adopted our Stella and Tucker. Matthew has been loving and caring to all of our family’s dogs throughout our lives, and has been trusted various times to care for my family’s dogs when we went away for vacations. Matthew is a true animal lover.”
