Will definitely be leaving our kitties in her hands in the future!”
7. Kasey R.
“Kasey did such a great job taking care of my cat while I was away for 5 days! She sent me pictures and updates, was flexible, offered extra help if needed, and made sure to let me know about any concerns with the house. I felt very reassured knowing she was there to take care of anything! We will definitely request her again! Thanks Kasey!”
8. Sophia C.
“Sophia was incredible. She came to our house and shone as an amazing pet sitter. She had time, experience with pet sitting and she asked all the right questions. She played with our cats and even picked up a bag of chocolate that was on the floor for us which would have been a big hazard. Sophia went above and beyond and did the litter and our cats are very picky. I feel overall the cats were well loved and cared for while we were away which is a great blessing and I’m so glad we booked Sophia to take care of our pet needs. I recommend her 10/10. Thank you Sophia!!!”

16. Michelle & Joselino B.
“Michelle is excellent with all types of dogs! She incredibly reliable and professional, but also has a genuine love for animals. She seems very experienced with everything from giving to applying difficult medicines and took the time to understand my pet's unique needs and quirks. I have a husky which are generally one of the more difficult breeds to handle but she was able to provide a great experience and care for my Husky. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle to anyone looking for TOP TIER care for their pets.”
17. Madina K.
“Madina was wonderful! She took great care of our kitties, played with them and cleaned up their litter boxes.

Will definitely be reaching out again next time we’re out of town!”
