“Brooke was very attentive to my kitty! She did more in watering and cleaning than I asked her to do and my kitty seemed to really take to her. She was also very accommodating in scheduling times to exchange keys and meet and greet. Would definitely use again!”
“Kate was great. She is friendly, polite, and was able to stop by when requested without any issues. She made sure our cat was taken care of when we were gone. Definitely recommend and will use in the future.”
“Syndee was a fabulous pet sitter! She dropped in our cat while we were away so she wouldn’t be so lonely. We had just moved and the cat eat a bit traumatized and Syndee was a great caregiver. We received several pictures each day and an update. I felt my fur baby was safe in her care. Thank you Syndee!!!”
“Kathryn did a great job for her first visit with Merlin! It was more of a meet and greet, but Merlin opened right up to her and really enjoyed her company. She made me feel extremely relaxed and safe knowing I would be entrusting her with my fur babies care. We will definitely be using her services this summer! 🌞”
“Mickayla is absolutely fantastic. She clearly takes her responsibility very seriously. From the very first meeting to get the low down before her first care day through the actual visits while we were gone, Mickayla was very communicative and kept us in the loop with all pet related goings on. We received lots of fabulous pictures of our kitties and the one kitty that is the most hesitant around new people was coming all the way up to Mickayla for pets on their first meet. Animals know good people! Best of all, we had complete peace of mind while away from our pets. I highly recommend Mickayla!”
“Brooke was the best for our two cats! I knew i didnt have to worry at all while we were out of town! She is such an animal lover and our kitties took to her right away. Thank you so much Brooke and I know we'll be booking with her again in the future!”
“I can't say enough about how awesome Elijah is. He did a meet and greet first and foremost, took notes regarding my preferences, and interacted with Merlin to get him comfortable. Elijah has excellent communication skills and keeps me in the know during each drop in. He has provided me with multiple pictures and a thorough summary. I feel 100% comfortable using his services and Merlin adores him! Honestly, I wish I had found him sooner! I'm truly grateful to have someone like Elijah look after my furbaby. If you're looking for someone to help out with your animals, you absolutely, 100%, need to contact Elijah.”
“LaRae was an amazing pet sitter for our little furry guy! She texted updates and pictures while we were away. Our puppy was in great spirits when we got back all because of LaRae’s special care! I highly recommend her for looking after you furry family when your away!!”
