“We were very pleased with Amber's care of our senior kitty, Nicky, while we were away for a week. He seemed to be in fine condition when we returned- happy and affectionate. She also brought in our mail and a package and the empty garbage can as well. We hope that she will come back to take care of Nicky another time. Lynn & Steve Anderson”

“Emma was a great caregiver for my 2 cats. She kept me up-to-date as to their care daily and with photos! Unfortunately, I lost my phone while traveling and could not reply to her daily updates but she faithfully continued to care for Buddy and Mia. Highly recommend!”


“Amazing! Definitely will be contacting again when needed! I really appreciate the help especially last minute! Played fetch with my dogs and sent me quite a few photos! HIGHLY recommend for any dog service needs!”

“Sandy was absolutely fantastic with our cats! They were well cared for. She kept us updated and sent pictures. It made our vacation more enjoyable knowing that our cats were safe and happy!”


“Sandy was excellent with our cat while we were gone over a week! Our cat wasn’t feeling top notch and Sandy kept us updated daily and went above and beyond with extra visits, administering medication, and willingness to take our cat to the vet should it have become necessary. We really appreciate the peace of mind Sandy’s care for our cat brought us while we were away.”


About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have taken care of all kinds since I was in high school. Personally, I have 2 cats and my 14 year old French bulldog passed away recently. I have experience with geriatric pets and pets with mobility issues because of him. I’m a teacher so I get off around 4 but I can come home at lunch for a potty break. April 12th-21st I’m available all day because of spring break! Once the school year is over, I will also be available full time. I have a large yard that I can walk and play with dogs in. My cats are used to being around dogs or I can keep them separated if need be!

“Sarah was amazing! I received the sweetest pictures of my cats each visit! My male cat needs twice daily insulin shots and Sarah had no trouble at all. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Hayley was a great help in an emergency situation. I felt very fortunate to have her look after my dog and cat while I was away. Highly recommended and I will definitely keep using her in the future.”


About: I love animals. I’ve had so many kinds of animals including fish, dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. I’ve taken care of them very well and I know how to do the proper research to care for animals. I’m a high school student so I can take care of pets on the weekdays after I’m done with school. I’m not very busy most of the time. I’m very good at feeding, walking, watching, and just taking care of pets in general. I make sure they are well loved and I give them a lot of pets!

“Lexi is amazing!! She was super sweet with our old anxious dog and by the end he was whining because he missed her visiting him! Fantastic communication, reports and photos too. Would recommend Lexi in a heartbeat.”


“We are on vacation in an unfamiliar house with an aging, mobility challenged dog so had lots of complicated instructions for Abbey and she did a fabulous job. She even made a practical suggestion for the second visit of the day which made life easier for us and our dog happy. We will certainly specifically look for her again when we visit Emerald Isle.”
