Top rated Sauer's Gardens pet sitters

“My cats are always happy after having Lee watch them! Lee leaves the best daily notes and takes cute photos to share while I’m missing them on vacation. I have peace of mind leaving them in Lee’s care.”



“Felicia was awesome! We just needed someone to watch our cat while we were away for a few days. She was super communicative and great with our elderly, persnickety cat! She stopped by two times daily, and took lots of photos and kept me up to date with every little detail. Highly recommended! Thank you, Felicia! :)”


“Katherine is such a lovely pet sitter. She is kind and reliable. I am truly grateful for her stellar care of my fur babies. I highly recommend to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their animals, big or small. Thank you!!”


“Violet loves Jora!!! I think she may even like her more than me. 😂 It’s apparent that Jora is an animal lover through and though, she immediately bonded with Violet and was super communicative through the whole process. I won’t be leaving my dog with anyone else from now on, Jora is the best of the best and I’m sure your fur children will love her just as much as Violet did 😍”


“Ri has taken such good care of our cats. She is communicative and attentive and sends lots of pics. She has looked after them twice now and we can tell they’ve been loved and petted a lot. She’s also tidy and leaves the apartment clean. Thanks Ri!”


“Monique did a great job taking care of my two cats! She was very personable and communicative. She checked in during each visit while I was out of town and shared updates about how my cats were doing.”


“Meghan was great! Sent great updates and was always on time for the scheduled drops. Will be a repeat customer and would recommend to others!”


“Sophie did a great job taking care of our kitties! She sent lots of photos and we felt better leaving them while we were on vacation knowing she was there.”


“Jeff provided multiple days of feeding, cuddle time, walks and loving attention for our dog. The photos he sent helped us feel at ease knowing our boy was safe and happy. We appreciated his responsibility and updates!”


“Brittany was great with my three month old lab! She was very reliable on timing and made sure to do a variety of activities with my puppy while she visited while keeping up with the training techniques I outlined. Am definitely going to request her again and would recommend her to anyone!”


“Danielle was wonderful. We got so many pictures and great updates of our doggos while we were away. She treated them just like her own fur family.”
