“She was very flexible and even came to my house an extra time to check in on my cat when I was freaking out! I’ve used her multiple times now”


16. Valerie C.


“Valerie was absolutely phenomenal. She helped out when I was in a last minute pitch, and couldn’t have been nicer and easier to communicate with even with my last minute request and with delayed responses on my end due to traveling. She also took the sweetest pictures of my two pups and took wonderful notes about what they did while she was with them. Couldn’t be happier, thank you Valerie! I would recommend this sitter to anyone :)”


17. Sarah H.
“Sarah has been taking care of our beloved 3 cats for nearly two years and it has been simply a dream. They are extremely frightened of strangers, and Sarah has handled it all with care and grace, while also implementing a very annoying feeding regimen that requires them all to be separately fed. Now whenever she arrives, they come out of their hiding spots quickly and let her pet them - we've never had them warm up more quickly to a cat sitter ever before! We would recommend Sarah endlessly as a pet sitter, walker or long-term caretaker. She is communicative to us while she's with our pets and so kind to our animals, and while we haven't ever had an emergency we trust her completely to handle anything that may come up with our pets with empathy and efficiency.”


18. Meagan N.
“Meagan is the best with the fur babies! Will love on your babies like they are her own. Trust her fully to take care of my dog when I’m not able to.”


19. Rebecca D.

“Rebecca is a great communicator. She is very genuine and clearly loves dogs. She let me know when she started and what she did with our little pup.”


20. Winifred E.
“I am so grateful for Winifred! I have two tuxedo twin kitties and found myself delayed getting home from a trip. It was so stressful, but Winifred made it so much better when she made time to come and check on my boys. They had food and water but needed socialization and Winifred was just what they needed! She took care of them and sent photos which were so reassuring. Since then Winifred has been my go to anytime I need a hand. So grateful to have someone I can trust with my boys!”
