“We had Dana come stay at our house and babysit our cat, Bella, for 5 days while we took a work-cation. I really like Dana, and we will definitely request her again. Here are a few reason why: 1) Our AC broke a few days before we were to leave but that did not bother Dana, she took it all in stride (thankfully, we did end up getting it fixed before we left). 2) Bella is not an easy cat to feed. She's a picky eater and can be somewhat of a pain when it comes to finishing her food. Dana was willing to work with Bella's "bad eating habits," which can honestly be a pain in the butt! 3) Bella knows how to do tricks so Dana took pictures of her tricks and sent them to me. This made me feel good, and let me know Bella likes Dana (Bella is skeptical of strangers). 4) We have bird feeders, bird baths, and even a bee bath that she kept full. 5) She watered our outdoor potted flowers/plants and they looked great when we came home. 6) Dana got our mail. 7) Dana left the house neat and tidy.”

“I gotta say, my experience with you as a pet sitter was absolutely amazing. When we first met, I could tell right away that you were the real deal. You had this warm, caring energy about you that just made me feel like my pets were gonna be in good hands. And man, did you deliver! You took the time to get to know each of my pets and their quirks, and you always treated them with so much love and respect. I felt like they were getting even better care than when I'm around! One thing that really stood out to me was how reliable and professional you were. You always showed up on time, and you were really good about keeping me in the loop with updates and stuff. I never once had to worry about my pets being neglected or anything like that. Overall, I can't recommend you enough as a pet sitter. You've got a real gift for working with animals, and I know my pets always looked forward to seeing you. Thanks for everything you've done for us – you're the best!”
