“Danette was spectacular as a house guest, communicator, and animal companion to our two dogs and cat. Our one dog has many medical issues and she followed instructions without issue, solved problems on her own and was completely flexible and did whatever was needed to keep the animals healthy and happy. She kept our animals engaged and unstressed! When we came back it was almost like we never left. Perfect and dependable. Everything you want in an animal sitter. Thank you so much, we will be in contact for any future needs!”

8. Sarah P.
“Sarah far exceeded our expectations! First of all the boys loved her and so did our 17 year old shy cat! She usually hides and we can't find her when we come home. This time she was sleeping away in her bed. Sara handled an issue with our stove very professionally and we loved the wonderful pictures and updates we received daily. We would not hesitate to use Sarah again. In fact we are planning to use her for a future date already :)”

10. Rebecca K.
“Rebecca was amazing! I liked her the minute we met. She is responsible and friendly. More important my dogs, a husky and a finiky terrier love her. My terrier is a rescue who is very picky about who he likes. When I got home after a week they were both giving her kisses and my terrier didn't want to see her go. She will be the only person we will use in the future.”
11. Alex K.
“Alex exceeded all expectations. Alex provided updates and pictures throughout the time we were out of town. He was positive, enthusiastic, and kind. Would highly recommend.”
12. Carolyn G.
“Carolyn is fantastic! We’ve used her twice to stay with our two dogs at our house and she does such a great job of taking care of them. Our pups have separation anxiety and leaving them has always resulted in trauma when we return, but having Carolyn here has made our returns so much easier and we are so thankful to know they are being loved while we are away from them.”

“Nathalia was perfect, she sent pictures everyday and the cats looked like they were having a great time. Everything was left in perfect condition.”
14. Haylee S.
