7. Anna M.
“Anna is really amazing !! I had requested to help with my cats for a couple days as I was out on a business trip. I have two cats one of them very skittish. One thing I was really amazed about Anna, was her patience to lure my cat to her and feed him. I really was very surprised! Secondly, despite being sick during her pet sitting time she made time to help the kitties. I’ve had terrible experience with sitters before but I feel I hit a jackpot with her. Thanks Anna! Appreciate all you do!”

Absolutely and genuinely grateful for this amazing human being! Thank you, Lucy!”
9. Michelle D.

11. Karen G.
“I've had the pleasure of knowing my friend Karen, for about 20 yrs now. She's always had cats and a dog at home. She's gone to pet shelters to spend time with the kittens from saved feral mothers. Karen is very conscience, never shrugging off her responsibility's. I would and do trust her with anything!”
12. Lucia H.
“Lucia puts heart and soul into care for pets! They have had years of experience with their own pets, and quickly became the neighborhood go-to person for pet care. They follow all owner instructions closely, are very communicative and responsive to any questions or concerns, are adaptable to changing circumstances, and love to love your pets! Lucia is also a great photographer, so know you'll have some great shots of your furry friends while you are away. I highly recommend Lucia!”
13. Jenifer H.
“Jenifer was amazing! Jack was entertained, fed, and well-loved. Jenifer even met me before our scheduled visits to learn how to access the apartment. Communication was great throughout: Jenifer asked thoughtful questions about caring for Jack before we met and sent pictures and updates. It was a pleasure having her children visit Jack as well (Jenifer asked for permission first). I got some hilarious photos of Jack from their visit :). I feel very comfortable recommending Jenifer as a cat-sitter and would not hesitate to rebook in the future.”
14. Yijing L.
“Yijing is an exceptional pet caregiver who treats every animal with love and compassion. In our household, she cares for our 5-month-old husky puppy and two-year-old bearded dragon, embodying the role of a fantastic pet mom. Her attention to detail is remarkable. For our puppy, she has created a daily training and feeding schedule, meticulously logging every aspect of our puppy’s growth, including eating, sleeping, pooping, and training, to this day. She fine-tunes her feeding plan based on our puppy’s optimal calorie intake. Yijing showers our animals with love. She bakes cookies for our puppy, prepares gorgeous and delicious treat cups, and bathes our bearded dragon with electrolytes every week. Unsurprisingly, she is the favorite human for all the pets in our household. Her attention to detail and responsible nature make her the perfect choice for your pet care needs.”
