Kade was excellent! They were very communicative, caring, and professional. It was much easier to be away from my baby knowing she was in good hands. I'm sure Ellie will look forward to seeing Kade again!

Devinder is very friendly and makes sure your pet gets the care they need. My dog Sylvester is being left alone in the home for the first time since COVID started and Devinder makes him feel comfortable while I'm away. Devinder is great about sending updates and photos. Definitely booking again!

Lila did an amazing job caring for our two cats! She even went above and beyond when there was a slight issue getting into our home. We felt safe leaving knowing our cats were in such good hands. Great communication and care. Would book again.

Amanda was phenomenal with taking care of Indi while I was out of town. Indi was feeling very sick and Amanda gave consistent updates and went above and beyond to help take care of her and make sure she was as comfortable as possible. Thank you so much Amanda, will definitely be rebooking for the future!

I'm so grateful that Alyssa was able to extend her drop-in care to my free-roam rabbit! My rabbit is usually shy but immediately felt comfortable in her presence. Alyssa provided detailed updates, quality pictures and respected our care routine.

She came to the rescue at the very last min. We ended up staying an extra day of our vacation and the originally scheduled sitter wasn't available. Not the best animal photographer 😂 but that's not the service. I was happy to come home to happy n healthy Babies

Kristina somehow got our rather cranky orange cat to make an appearance! Having her come got us out of jam and made for one less thing to worry about.

Kathryn patiently engaged with my cats on their terms, gained their trust, and brought them out of their shells. She followed the weirdly specific feeding instructions my one cat requires perfectly. She gave them love and attention, and sent me photos so I would know they were okay. 5 out of 5 stars!

I’m beyond impressed with Lequitta’s pet sitting services! She took such great care of my pit bull puppy, providing him with love, attention, and structure while I was away. Not only did she ensure he was well-fed and exercised, but she also worked diligently on potty training, making remarkable progress during her time with him. Her patience, dedication, and consistency were evident, and I could see the positive results. Lequitta’s professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I highly recommend her services for anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.

Lucid has cared for my dog several times in the last few years. They are mindful of the dog’s needs - not only for the basics of food and water, but exercise, attention, play, and also space. With their own dog, they’ve invested in extensive training that also pays off with other dogs, knowing how to read a dog’s cues and gently redirect behavior when necessary.

Sophie did an amazing job with Pepper! Pepper is a people lover dog and can come off very intense. Sophie was kinda to my dog and I could tell by the way Pepper acted when I came home. Sophie was flexible, communicated well, took photos, did all that i asked when it came to Peppers needs, and gave great notes throughout her time with Pepper. I really appreciate you Sophie for checking in on my pup while i was gone and showing her love! I would highly recommend you to anyone. Once again thank you☺️

We reached out to Jessica, because she seemed like a fit for our elderly dog with high medical needs. She was warm, accommodating, and she would have been the perfect fit had our dog not passed away before she could begin providing him care. She had not previously injected a dog, but she was a trooper - coming over for a visit, and gave Ricky insulin with ease. I also felt safe giving her a key to my home. I have already told my best friend (who has three dogs) about her, and while we are heartbroken by the circumstances, we remain hopeful we will encounter her through our dog loving friends who consistently need the kind of support I am confident she provides. Thank you again, Jessica.
