“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”
“She is the absolute best! I would not use anyone else! She treats our pets like our own; accommodates our every request and is as trustworthy as they come! Don't hesitate to have her care for your grumpy old dog, energetic larger dog or your cats. She handles it all with ease. I've already booked her for our next trip.”
“Logan was wonderful!! She took excellent care of my pup. She was kind, efficient, intelligent and showed her true passion for dogs.. Logan answered my texts in a very timely fashion. She made time for a meet and greet prior to my stay and she sent pictures and updates throughout her stay. Her house was clean and inviting. Her own dog is very sweet and my dog enjoyed their company.. I would highly recommend Logan to anyone looking for an excellent pet sitter.”

linda n.
“Linda watches my 2 year old Great Dane, Ivan, while I travel a lot for work at my house with the fenced in yard. She made him into a truck dog and he LOVES going for truck rides with her now. She takes such good care of him and she even turns the sink faucet on for him when he prefers a drink of "fresh" water instead of the bowl! She loves him like he's her own, and I always feel comfortable that my baby is being given lots of love and well taken care of when I am away. She is familiar with the e-collar training, and sends lots of great pupdates. His favorite is running along side her four wheeler and playing with her dog. For the right dog who likes a little bit of farm life, Linda is the perfect pet get away.”
