“Patricia is an excellent cat sitter! She took great care of our kitty while we were away. We will definitely use her again!”


“We went out of town for two weeks, and we’re worried about our cats, one of whom is diabetic and needs insulin shots twice a day. We saw Alli’s profile and she had great reviews, and lived close to us. We felt very confident once we met her in person, and having just arrived home from our trip, I can say that she exceeded our expectations. Alli sent us videos, pictures and updates every visit, and I could see how happy the cats were with her visits. They are normally shy around strangers, but they greeted her at the door when she came over and loved her petting and attention. She also watered our plants while she was here. I would highly recommend Alli, and will definitely request her again when we next go out of town.”

Hayden c.
“I am delighted to share my experience with Hayden, who took care of my precious furbaby, Bella Blu, while I was away on vacation. During my time away Hayden took the time to send me pictures and frequent updates of Bella Blu on how she was doing. This type of communication gave me a sense of peace and mind and made me still feel connected while I was away. Hayden was very professional and attentive and took the time to understand Bella’s personality and routines. Not only did Hayden feed and walk Bella Blu she took the time to spend quality time and give her extra cuddles. It was very clear to me that Bella felt so loved and comfortable with Hayden and that brought me much relief. When I finally was able to return home to my Bella she was happy and healthy, which for me speaks volumes about the amazing care that was provided. I highly recommend Hayden to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Bella Blu and I look forward to working with her again in the future!”


Katelyn C.
“Katelyn is absolutely amazing! She’s watched my cats a couple of times, and has gone above and beyond. One of my cats is diabetic and she gives him his shots on time and sends me cute videos of them interacting with her when I’m gone. I will 100% be using her again and again 🩷 I can’t recommend her enough.”
