Jeremy is outstanding! He went above and beyond to ensure that Ernie was taken care of while I was out of town. His communication and timeliness was much appreciated. I felt at ease knowing Ernie was in good hands! A+++

Monica was truly the best. We were gonna for two and a half weeks for our wedding and honeymoon & Monica treated our bengal cat like royalty by going above and beyond. She keeps you updated with daily messages, pictures, and responds quickly to any questions and requests. We will definitely be using her again!

Jenevieve is a literal angel. She was just supposed to do a drop-in to see Deku and let him out. My A/C went out the night before the scheduled visit and it’s was 100 degrees outside. Jenevieve took him to her home to watch him for the day while I was at work. If it wasn’t for her, Deku would definitely not be okay! She saved the day and saved me from so much stress during my first day at my new job! A literal lifesaver!

Cory is the most pet friendly human I’ve ever met! From having his own pets that he loves unconditionally, to meeting my dog and immediately bonding with her, Cory would make an excellent pet sitter. I trust Cory with my own dog, that I consider my child, so I know he is a trustworthy person for the job!

Tarah is such a great cat sitter! Our kitties warmed up to her so quickly. Very flexible scheduling, always responsive via text or Rover message, kept us in the loop with lots of cute pics of our babies. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Brad does a great job for us. He is always prompt and sends us pictures during every visit. Our two 75 lb rowdies were very happy and well cared for. We will definitely continue to use Brad to care for our dogs when we're out of town.

Our cats are still warming up to the idea of people and tend to hide (even from us on some days), but Nichole did her best to win them over anyway. It gave me great peace of mind to know the person checking on them was so attentive, even if the cats themselves weren't enthusiastic about a new friend. Thanks so much!

Caron will love your dog and give you peace of mind while you are gone. My dog liked her right away. Caron is a laid back, happy dog caretaker. Caron followed my instructions and gave my dog excellent care. I highly recommend her and will use her again. You can trust Caron to come into your home, care for your dog(s) and know your pups are getting the best care possible. She goes to extra work to make sure your dog is happy and comfortable.

Megan was fantastic! She was a lifesaver as one of our cats requires insulin injections twice a day but no one would board her. Megan was communicative (sent pictures with each check in) and detail-oriented as the directions I left were quite lengthy. She even brought in a package that was delivered while we were gone. I will definitely book Megan again!
