1. Mitchell M.

“Mitch did an amazing job! He went way above and beyond with our cats and did so much more than we asked. He was incredibly flexible, communicative, and so nice. The cats loved him and we were able to relax knowing they were in good hands!”


2. Kristi C.

“Kristi was awesomely amazing. She came by around the same time each day and did more than just give them food. Her pictures included my cats eating treats from hands, playing Lazer pointer, not to mention dealing with 2 large litter box totes. Thanks Kristi for giving my extremely friendly (somewhere needy cats). I plan on contacting you again in the future”


3. Justine S.

“Justine took excellent care of our doggie and kitteh. She was reasonably flexible about the visit times and worked around our schedule. She was prompt and diligent about the actual visits, affectionate with the animals, and super responsible about home security. A+, would definitely use again.”


4. Karin P.

“Karin was great! We were in a bit of a pickle with my work schedule changing and Karin was able to help us out last minute. She was super sweet to our sally, followed all the directions I gave her, and even brought some packages in for us. Thank you Karin!”


5. Candice D.
“Candie has always been a huge animal lover, has had pets her entire life. Every animal that has ever been a part of her life was and is truly loved and taken care of. Candie also takes time in her life to volunteer and her local animal shelter. With that being said, she also has been fostering cats and dogs for the past few years. Candie would truly be a great edition to your team, as well as a valued employee that your clients will absolutely trust to take the best care of their babies, with her pure love of animals and amazing zest for life. I cannot say enough how amazing she will be for Rover as well as their clients”

I highly recommend her to anyone to care for your pet .”
