1. Catherine M.
“Catherine was amazing with my two elderly cats! I have a lot of anxiety about leaving them alone, especially since one of them needs an injected medication with his meals. Catherine was consistently communicative and is clearly a conscientious pet caregiver. Both cats warmed up to her very quickly and were very well taken care of while I was away.”

15. Hunter D.
“I would recommend Hunter for pet care. They are knowledgeable about caring for cats and dogs, and they genuinely enjoy being around animals. Hunter showed a lot of effort and responsibility when they had to help their dog recover after breaking its back. This situation included monitoring Harvey nearly 24/7, administering medication, and carrying him from his crate to the yard so he could potty. Hunter also just really likes being around animals. They’ve written blog posts about the history of dogs.”
16. Jeff O.
“Amazing! After my planned sitter bailed, Jeff showed up at the last minute. He somehow got my very shy cat to play after meeting only twice! He showed up each day, fed and watered Karma per the instructions and sent pics and even a video. Also, he emptied my sink to keep Karma from getting in to stuff which was super helpful! Thanks Jeff!”

He kept me updated with pictures throughout their stay. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring bird sitter!”
19. Angelina S.
“Angelina did a great job with our dog and cat during a booking of 1 week with multiple visits needed a day. We had to book last minute after another sitter canceled 48 hours before our trip. Was very grateful that Angelina was able to step in on short notice. She was timely, completed everything they needed, and they seemed to thoroughly enjoy her. She was also very easy to communicate with and provided great photos that allowed us to get glimpses of our babies 🐕🐈 Thanks so much!”
