“Sylvie watched my 2 Cats, Nini and Bean, when I was in a vacation with my family. I gave her very few instructions but she went above and beyond in taking care of them. I told her she could Just feed them then leave, but she went the extra mile and stayed with them, played with them, and even tried teaching them some tricks with toys and treats that she brought herself. I would 100% recommend her over anyone else.”


18. Helen N.
“Helen is great with pets! She has taken care of my two pitbulls and my cats in the past.

I highly recommend her for any pet caring needs, my fur babies love her!”


19. Ian H.

“My cats were in good hands with Ian! He quickly made friends with them, and they appreciated his chin rubs. Ian followed all care instructions and kept the litterbox tidy for them. He even checked in with me on the last day to ensure I got home ok. Ian is a top-notch sitter who I would definitely rebook!”


20. Tea D.
“Téa cared for our five year old pup ( canine baby), Emmy, for one week while we were out of state. We provided Téa with detailed instructions on her wake/sleep/walk/eat/supplement schedule, which Téa adhered to without question. I am very particular about Emmy and her care in my absence so finding someone loving, caring and reliable was priority for me. Téa kept a daily diary of Emmy’s activities, of which was provided to us upon our return. Téa was highly responsive when we called to check in on Emmy. This was especially important to us as Emmy is a “Covid Baby”, and spent her first three years of life with one of us being home 100%. I’d highly recommend Téa for pet sitting and/or caregiver to anyone’s canine baby!!”
