“My first time leaving my pet with someone and Kelly made me feel safe the whole time! She offered to help out last minute, and took incredible care of my dog and house full of kitties. She didn’t even get mad when one of them peed on her!!! Would recommend Kelly to absolutely anyone and am so grateful to have her help, it’s hard to find people to trust with your pets but Kelly is definitely one of them <3”
6. Michelle H.
“I don’t have enough great things to say about Michelle! Our dogs are our heart and to know they were so well taken care of was an incredible weight off our shoulders while we were gone. She sent multiple pictures each day, and we could see our senior dog relaxed and enjoying her company. She was very responsive and treated our home as if it were her home - we were very impressed and cannot wait to have her spend time with our boys again soon!”

16. Elise S.
“If I could leave 10 stars for Elise I would. All my animals immediately took to her, and they are a very good judge of character. I felt comfortable with her as their sitter right away. All week long she kept in constant communication and sent lots of pictures. Just what a momma pet owner needs to soothe her worried soul while she's away. I will definitely be booking with her again. Elise is flexible, dependable, and a natural with the animals. She picked the right occupation. I hope she continues doing pet sitting. Everyone needs a pet sitter like her. Good Luck. See you soon.”

19. Annmarie C.
“I need more stars for Annmarie. I cannot stress enough on how awesome she is. She took care of my fur baby (almost) better than me. She was easy to contact and communicate with. She came over for a meet and greet and the minute we saw her with my baby -- we knew she was the one. She was very thorough in learning everything about our puppy. While she stayed at the house -- she not only took care of our puppy, but also our house. She sent us multiple pics during her stay and kept us up to date. We and our neighbors are definitely going back to her. She is awesome!!!”
20. Shelby M.
“Shelby was awesome company for Zuma while we were away, and sent pics as well! She was responsive, kind, and helped out with a last minute request. We returned home to a clean house and happy pup. :)”
