Adrianna was great! She followed our cats’ particular feeding instructions, stayed for the full half hour, and sent us plenty of pictures and updates. She was also very timely.

Austin is our go-to! He takes great care of our two cats and is super willing to adjust to their needs/wants to minimize stress and keep them as happy as they can be until we return home.

Ian was great at coming to help us on such short notice. We had him drop-in to visit our cats a few times and he sent us pictures every time. We really appreciated his help.

Megan was able to make a home visit in the middle of the day on short notice. Though she was there a short duration, she still sent pictures. We could tell our dog was happy to see her again.

My dogs and cat were in such good hands. Highly recommend him. Will use again and again. Was in another country and he was so patient with my payment issue. I didn’t have to worry even at 3700 miles away.

Sarah we great and the girls loved her! My dog Gizzy has special needs (deaf and blind). She requires eye drops multiple times a day. Sarah did a wonderful job ensuring Gizzy received all the medications she needed. She did a great job with my other dog Meeko also. Meeko is a rescue and had some unpleasant experiences in her past. Sarah was great with her, knew just how to help Meeko learn to trust her and they became friends quickly. I would recommend Sarah for all you pets care and needs. Jenny D.

My kitties absolutely loved LilyAnn!! They were much more stressed free when I got home after being gone. It is well worth the money to have her come and love on my guys!
