“Eileen was a wonderful sitter for our two precious cats, Prim and Theo! Theo and her immediately hit it off, with him showing her his sparkling personality and offering snuggles and love (which she accepted with open arms!). Prim, the more shy of our two babies, also warmed to Eileen, which is incredibly rare for her. With Prim, Eileen was gentle, patient, and respectful of her boundaries, allowing her to open up in due time and even join in on some of the fun that Eileen and Theo were having! It’s also worth mentioning that Eileen left incredibly detailed and fun notes after each visit that we looked forward to reading everyday. We will absolutely use Eileen again and recommend her to others looking for excellent pet care!”
“Lynn was kind and detail oriented when meeting about a check in for our cat Marlene. She was communicative, took care of her exactly as requested, and sent pictures while we were gone. Highly recommend!”
“Maria was absolutely fantastic with my very shy, semi-feral cat, Bebe. Maria approached her with such patience, respect, and understanding. From the start, she was calm and gentle, never pushing interaction, and gave my cat the space she needed to feel safe. Remarkably, by the end of the visits, my kitty was actually more comfortable around her — a huge win! Maria also followed my very detailed instructions to a tee, which gave me total peace of mind. She sent thorough updates, including thoughtful notes and clear, great photos that truly showed how things were going, which really reassured me while I was away. Her attention to detail and commitment to my cat's comfort were above and beyond. Maria is the kind of sitter you hope to find. She truly understands cats and provides the kind of care that builds trust and comfort — both for the pet and the owner. Highly, highly recommend! Will definitely book her again.”
“Yahnzy was super helpful taking care of our two cats dropping in a few times a week over the holidays. She sent regular updates with photos and videos and went above and beyond.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend Nia to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving cat/house sitter!”
