Ashlee kept in touch with us daily over the week that we were away. We came home to three happy healthy cats, a clean litter box and my plants were all in great shape. Ashlee did an excellent job for us. We and our kitties are grateful for her service! I’d highly recommend her.
Grace was available last minute for a drop in visit for our cats. The cats are comfortable around her.
Grace is a true kind, gentle, compassionate soul. You can see it in how she interacts with your animals. She did an absolutely fantastic job. She came as scheduled and did exactly as instructed. She made all of our animals feel comfortable and safe. We will absolutely use Grace again and would recommend her with the highest regards. We appreciate all she did for us!!
Amy is such a wonderful caregiver. I know whenever I have to go out of town that my cat will be in good hands until I’m home. Amy is great at keeping in touch before and during a booking and the care and attention she shows always gives me peace of mind while I’m away. She’s the best around!
We have had the pleasure of having Lisa come sit out cat multiple times now. It's always so nice to have to come by and to know our cat is in good hands. She is wonderful! Every time we come home we can tell that our cat is happy and well cared for!
Amarantha was amazing with my two cats! They got comfy and sure liked her. She sends me videos, pictures and updates me every time she drops in. I would highly recommend her and would definitely book her again!! ☺️
Ashley is an angel. Our cat was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism right before a trip across country. He also had “the cat flu” 2 days into sitting Ashley notified me of serious concerns she had regarding his health. She took him to the vet and walked us through a very difficult diagnosis. On top of that she gave him a bath to help with nasal discharge. She is an angel. I cannot describe her as anything else. We are so grateful for her and forever in her debt of taking care of our sweet boy so we can get home to him
Allysha is wonderful. She really goes the extra mile to make sure everything is taken care of and is very reliable.
Another fantastic service from Ashlynn! She took care of our pets like they were her own and always sends the best pictures of them!
We’ve had Kelly twice. She’s been adaptable to dealing with last minute changes, and is so caring with our pets! She gives outstanding service and will be our first choice next time as well!
De was a wonderful dog sitter! I did the 60 min drop in visit, and I feel that De went above and beyond for my dogs. My dogs are pretty particular about certain things and she was very good at making sure my dogs were comfortable.
Larry did a great job with Kate and Bianca and insured I was kept up to date with their nutritional and social well being. Will book again!!
Bonnie did an amazing job at watching my babies! She always came on time and did so well with them and took the best care of them. She updated me constantly and sent pictures and made sure I knew they were having a good time. She is so sweet and sooo good with animals I would choose her time and time again she is the best!! ❤️
Annabelle was a fabulous cat sitter! She showed up on-time and did all that needed to be done, keeping me well-informed along the way! Most interestingly to me, my extremely reserved cat - a cat which remains hidden when outsiders come into the home - appeared for Annabelle and even wanted Annabelle to pet her! Truly a feat of nature! Clearly Annabelle has a knack for pets! I highly recommend Annabelle! Her extremely pleasant personality coupled with her attention-to-detail ensures your pet will be well taken care of while you are away. Thank you, Annabelle! :)
I will absolutely be reaching out to Taylor again the next time I need someone to watch my kitties. She kept me updated, sent many pics, and made sure my cats were fed and loved. Thank you so much :)
Jaden took great care of my cats while I was away and always sent pictures and updates about how they were doing!
Adam was beyond great with my cats! He kept me well informed and went above and beyond to ensure they were cared for like his own.
Skylar did a great job taking care of our cats. Communication was excellent, and she was Very timely with her visits.
