Zoe did a fantastic job checking in on our two kitties. She was prompt, responsive, and sent a detailed update and photos that really set our minds at ease. She was thoughtful enough to bring in our Amazon packages as well so they didn't get rained on. It's clear the kitties loved Zoe, and we'll definitely rebook!

Katie went above and beyond taking care of my sassy cat! She took great care of my cat, had no issue mixing her meds, and also took great care of the house when Bella made a mess. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!

Hilary was fantastic! We had a virtual meet and greet so she could meet Mochi and she asked a lot of great questions. During the visits, she provided a great summary and sent some pictures to let me know how my baby was doing. Highly recommend!

Shane was wonderful as always. A very last minute scheduling conflict came up in my household that would have left our animals without care. Shane was kind enough to accommodate us so last minute and take care of everyone. So thankful he could help us in a pinch like that.

Outstanding experience. Laura was incredibly professional and responsive, taking great care of our pets during the holidays. When we arrived back earlier than expected, Laura insisted on modifying the booking even though I offer to pay her for the originally agreed number of visits. We came home to happy cats and a clean, fresh-smelling home. Your cats are in great hands with her!

Colleen was amazing with Corndog and Sandy! Corndog has always been skittish around anyone other than the family, but he warmed up to her quickly and they both enjoyed many cuddles! We'll definitely be reaching out to Colleen again.

Jennifer did an outstanding job with my cat, Duke, who is typically shy and tends to hide when unfamiliar people are around. Jennifer's patience and gentle approach helped Duke gradually come out of his shell and become comfortable enough to spend time with her during their visits. Jennifer also provided thorough updates, and I felt extremely at ease knowing that she was taking care of Duke. I highly recommend Jennifer for anyone in need of a pet sitter.

When my wife and I travel and can't take Barney with us, there is only one person we turn to take care of him, Bryan! Not only does Barney appear happy when we return, we know Bryan to be patient, kind, and an all around wonderful human being. Ease your mind and select Bryan for your next dog caretaker.

Amanda was amazing with my two kitties. She took excellent care of them and provided plenty of photos/videos and updates. Normally, both of my cats are shy and afraid of new people, but they warmed up to Amanda pretty fast, ate treats from her hands, played with her and let her pet them. Can’t recommend enough, she is a cat whisperer!
