8. Kiersten A.


“Kiersten/Ashley went above and beyond. The contract was to come by my place once a day for 5 days to feed/water/scoop litter for my cat. This was a few weeks after my cat had both eyes removed and was still healing. I was very nervous about leaving my cat for that long, but I completely trusted that Kiersten had the expertise and integrity to honor the contract and be able to determine if there were an issue and act quickly if needed. She still came to my house during a big ice storm, getting stuck there for 6 hours until the roads were cleared!”


9. Lauren A.


“Lauren was great! It was my first time ever leaving my pets for more than 1 day and I wasn’t worried whatsoever. She played with both my cats and one of my cats had a complicated meal plan and she had no problems with it. I came home and it was clean and both pets seemed comfortable. It was like I never left!”


10. Kirsten J.


“Kristen did an excellent job doing daily home visits with my cat! She was great at communicating any needs/how she was doing and always made sure to get a photo of her! So happy I was able to use her during my last trip and would 100% rebook for the next time!”


11. Brandon S.
“Brandon S would be a great dog sitter due to the love and care he has for dogs cats and many other animals. We have a litter of 9 dogs at my place and he lives to cuddle play and feed each and every one of them, bathes them when needed and cleaned up after them when needed. He has great experience with animals and has always had them around since he was young and loved them since day one. Even the animals love him back which shows he'sgreag with animals. He attends and takes great care of them so I recommend him to be a dog sitter with a rating of 10/10”
