“Amazing! Attentive & so sweet with our kitty. Destiny sent great photos & updates each day. She vacuumed around our litter box & kept the good area very clean. We were so happy with her & relieved to know we had someone very reliable taking care of our pet while away on vacation.”
3. Crismely T.
“First, I would like to apologize for just writing this review. Secondly, I would like to thank Crismely for taking such good care of my fur babies. She was absolutely wonderful with them and that was evident through the videos and pictures that she sent during each drop in visit. She pampered and engaged them in play time and she made sure that Chelsea's eyes were always cleaned. She was excellent with them, and I would definitely use her services again.”

“He's been around dogs for all of his life. Very caring, and responsible with the chores that comes with having a dog as a member of the family. He's great with handling medications and animals are comfortable around him. He's been caring for neighbors, family and friends pets since he was a young teenager. To sum it up with one word, trustworthy.”

9. Andrew M.
“Andrew is wonderful with dogs. He is so very empathic about their well being. I have witnessed how compassionate he is with dogs for many years. He is very reliable in responsibility for their care and does a very good job with training them by understanding training is their way of obtaining attention and treats. One would be hard pressed to find anyone better to leave to the care of their best pal.”
10. Yariel & Daniel A.
“Yariel is amazing! She took excellent care of our dog and our two cats while we were on vacation. She kept us updated with photos each day, and gave each of our furbabies the attention they needed. We will definitely be booking again in the future!”
11. Liliana R.
“Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.”
12. Vilmarie R.
“Vilmarie has taken care of my pet cat when I was out of town and I loved working with her because I knew I didn’t have to worry. My cat has specific dietary needs that require more intensive supervision throughout the day and Vilma was communicative and supportive of my concerns and she cared for my cat as if I was there.”
13. Marie C.
About: I’ve been taking of dogs for 8 years. Since I was 10 I would always take care of dogs in the summer while I wasn’t in school and enjoyed doing it I was also doing over night care . I currently stay home 7 days a week. I’m available anytime soon I start college but I still have plenty of time left. I am always free I’m one message away I live in an apartment but have a fence and a bunch of toys to make sure that your dog is entertained I will always be available to take the dog out side to use the bathroom or wee wee pads are available as well.
14. Dina R.
“Dina always comes to the rescue, literally! I have two rescue kitties that at first were a little shy and guarded. Dina was able to get them to warm up to her and now whenever I’m away, it’s a seamless transition to her beautiful place for my Frida and Diego. Don’t hesitate to book Dina!”
15. Isabella H.
“Isabella was great! Very communicative and reliable. She came a few days before we left to pick up the keys and meet the cats. She also gave one of our cats his pill daily. We will definitely hope to book her again!”
16. Stephen V.
“Very timely :) kind to my cat. My cat doesn’t get along with just anyone but he felt comfortable around him. He understands instructions and has great communication. I have no complaints. Wouldn’t want anyone else to look after my pets.”
17. Lissette M.
About: I (Lissette) have taken care of pets since I was a kid. I love dogs and feel like I have a special kinship with them too. I am a freelance marketer and have great availability to look after well-trained and behaved pets day in and day out. Only 1 at a time unless you have 2. I will look after pets in their own homes. As requested, I will crate them and provide any medication. My personal pets cuddle with me freely on the sofa and bed.
18. Melanie V.
“Melanie was great to work with! Responded quickly and was very understanding and accommodating. I felt very safe leaving my pup with Melanie and look forward to working together moving forward:)”
19. Wallis P.
About: I grew up with 2 cats at home and often spent summers caring for my grandparents' and relatives' dogs. I am generally very good with animals and understand the basics of pet care. Most recently, I house-sat for a friend for a week, caring for an asthmatic cat who needed an inhaler twice a day. I am currently in-between jobs, so my availability is fairly open. My schedule is very flexible, though I prefer not to work during my partner's off days. I will always respect your pet and your home, and work to help keep your pets happy and healthy! I like going on long walks on my own, and would love a furry companion! I will always be careful with your pet and make sure they get home safely.
20. Gloria M.
