1. Lizz R.
“Best dog sitter I’ve ever had! Lizz was really great and very observant. She noticed a tick on my dogs leg and removed it while asking for my permission while I was away. She went the extra mile to take care of my dog and I will definitely be asking her to sit again in the future. Highly recommended for pet sitting.”
2. Azure P.
“Our cats love Azure SO MUCH! She is reliable to take care of them and they feel comfortable around her. Our cat Raylan might even love her more than us! She is considerate and even brought in packages that we had when it was raining.”
3. Jeff K.
“Jeff was great! You can tell he is very good with animals and even got my shy cat to warm up to him. He’s also super communicative and takes great pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
4. Autumn M.
“Autumn eased my mind while I was at work by watching my puppy and attending to her quite often. She did what I asked and my pup was able to have a friend to hangout with all day.”
5. Mie C.
“Mie took care of our 2 cats while we were out of town for Christmas and did a great job. She kept us updated on how they were doing and was very responsive in all of our communication. I will definitely have her pet sit for us again! Thank you, Mie!”
6. Ava W.
“Ava was awesome and so helpful! She was available last minute, and even able to check on them for an extra day when our trip was unexpectedly extended.”
7. Sonja H.
“Two paws up for Sonja! My dog, Lucy, took to her right away despite her trust issues related to being a shelter dog. It takes a special person for a dog to feel comfortable around them right away and Sonja is that person! Sonja also fulfilled all my specifications for care and I came home to a very happy dog. Couldn’t have done that long shift without you Sonja! Thank you.”
8. Flannery E.
“It was a pleasure to work with Flannery. Flannery showed up on time to meet and to return the key. Most importantly, Flannery took very good care of my cat! I could tell when I got home, she had been paid attention to and was not desperate to see me! Thank you, Flannery, I will call you next time I need you!”
9. Annie C.
“Annie took on our two spoiled indoor kitties. She was on time every day, reported on the kitties, and sent some really cute pictures. Everything was shipshape when we got home. We were thankful to have such conscientious TLC for “the boys” while we were out of town.”
10. Katherine G.
“Katie is an outstanding person to have come visit your furry ones! She was very flexible, understanding, and a great presence for our cat when we were away! Would strongly recommend anyone to trust her to take care of your loved ones! Thanks again, Katie!”
