Miranda is so great with my cat. I'm not one to trust just anyone with my pets but she really made me feel comfortable. She was attentive to detail and quick to respond. My cat warmed right up to her quickly which was surprising cause she is shy. I'd absolutely book with her again. She even was great with my chicken!

Jessica was great with my 6 pets on a recent weekend. She was very responsive, sent me photos, communicated with me daily and was successful at getting 1 of my dogs with dementia to go outside for her. Would recommend.

Michelle is an excellent pet sitter. She sent lots of pictures and a few videos, which kept me at ease knowing my fur baby was well taken care of while I was away. 100% recommend Michelle and will book her services in the future.

Jared is a caring and loving pet owner. I have watched Jared take care of my dog, 3 year old shepherd mix, for a long weekend. My text messages were filled with pictures and videos of my dog playing and having fun. In addition to that, I have seen Jared live with three dogs. All of whom he would walk, take out and play with on a daily basis. He is a pet lover through and through, I would 100 percent trust him with my dog again.

Gil is a great pet caregiving. She always makes sure pets feel safe and are able to care for them when others aren’t able to. For example, I got a cat named Syd and she had worms when I first got her. When Gil started to care for my cat she was able to get Syd the worm medication when needed. Gil is a great sitter and I trust her to look after my cat. She seems fond of her.

I recall one day, her and I were walking in the park and while we were walking we seen a stray dog walk past us and she tried to approach it but it had fled. About 10 minutes later we seen a missing dog sign for that exact same dog we had passed earlier. Shia had immediately called the pet owners and told then when and where she seen the dog, while simultaneously began searching for it herself. She then spent two whole hours searching for the dog checking in the with owners every 15 minutes until The owners got to the location to begin the search to begin the search themselves.

Stephanie did a great job caring for my animals, 2 cats and 5 guinea pigs. She followed all of my crazy instructions and updated us frequently with summaries, pictures, and videos of the visit. She also made herself available on short notice after an emergency need for a pet sitter. She responded quickly and never left us hanging. Would highly recommend her and will be booking her again. Thanks so much Stephanie!
