“Amy was absolutely wonderful, she was friendly and caring and we could tell our cat enjoyed her company! She was extremely tidy and clean and she was great at communicating with us.

2. Ash T.
“Ash, did a great job on a short notice. I'd recommend anyone looking for a trustworthy animal lover to watch their dog to call him.”
3. Kelli E.
“Kelli (& Jeff) did an amazing job watching my cat, Halsey. He is a shy boy, so I was so pleased to get updates from Kelli showing them bonding. He took to her pretty fast and knowing that he was well made my travels so much more relaxing. Kelli also kept my plants alive and even washed the sheets so I would have a clean bed when I returned. It was such a sweet, and appreciated act. I would definitely recommend Kelli & Jeff E. and use them again. I was extremely pleased with their service, and most importantly, I think my cat was too.”
4. Ace G.
“Ace is amazing and so caring and attentive. We won’t leave our little cat, Ella with anyone else. Ace sent us pictures throughout the entire time and updated us about what Ella was doing. Ace truly honors animals with love, adoration and respect. Your little guy or girl will be in excellent hands with Ace. ❤️”

Whether it’s a quick check-in and playtime or multiple days away, we can trust that they’ll be well taken care of.”

14. Myka S.
“Myka was wonderful! Very communicative and through!”
15. Sarah L.
“Sarah is the best and came for an admittedly long meet and greet to listen to my concerns regarding our anxious cat AND our bearded dragon.

Sarah's responsiveness, comfortability with our pets and daily updates helped to ease our minds while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Sarah next time we need a sitter. :)”
