Alexa was amazing! I’m very much a “does this person have good energy?”-type-of-person and Alexa definitely has good energy! Both of our animals were comfortable with her right away. She stayed at our apartment for a week with our dog, cat, and 40+ plants. We received multiple daily updates and photos and came back to clearly content animals. My partner and I were initially a little uncomfortable with the idea of having someone in our space for an extended period of time, but with Alexa watching our critters and space we found that we weren’t worrying about the animals or the apartment at -all- while we were on vacation. Will definitely book Alexa for any future pet sitting needs. ☺️??

Crystal was great! During her stay with our pup, there was some bad weather, and he is scared of thunderstorms. We were out of medication, and she went out and got him some! She was great at communication and ensured the house was clean and tidy! Definitely will use her again! Thank you, Crystal!

Lindsay was absolutely wonderful! She was super professional and clearly was very experienced. My dog is quite large and is leash reactive, and Lindsay handled him like a pro. She was super easy to communicate with and sent updates and pictures morning and evening, and our dog looked like he was having the best time! We came home to our house cleaner than when we left- she had even started the dishwasher and the bedding laundry! Lindsay was exceptional, and we will absolutely be contacting her for future bookings. ❤️

Jessica stayed at our house with our dog and our bird. We hate leaving our dog because she has anxiety but Jessica did a wonderful job communicating with us while we were away and putting our minds at ease. She also left our home immaculate. Would highly recommend and will definitely book her again in the future!

Mo is so incredibly thoughtful and kind. He is great with our 12.5 year old boxer. He keeps up with her medication schedule, sent plenty or updates and pictures, and is just super communicative overall. With this being our second house/pet sitting experience with Mo, I can definitely say he is our new go to. Couldn’t recommend him more.

Barbara was amazing! I came to Austin for a conference that had me away all day and night and wanted to make sure my 13 year old (spoiled) golden was cared for deeply. She was so attentive to his needs and care, it made me feel so at ease while I was away. Barbara was so professional, responsible, and attentive. Highly recommend her to care for your furry babies.
