“After I leave this review everyone will want to use him and he might not have anytime left for me. LOL Compassionate, intelligent and an obvious animal lover.I don't know what I would have done without his help..... On the morning of my daughters wedding my dog (Marzipan) out of nowhere and right before I had leave,started showing signs of pain and dicomfort. Mike calmed me down and actually took her to the vet for me. Unbelievable. I would never use anyone else. Thank Mike.”

6. Victoria B.
“I’ve worked with animals my entire life (currently in school to be a veterinarian) and so I’m very particular about who I let around my pets. Victoria’s love for dogs and her ability to handle them makes her a trustworthy person for your pets! She is very easygoing, adaptable, and knows what to do in an emergency. Even my blind german shepherd comes running when he hears her voice. Not all dogs are perfect angels and tend to get into trouble, but with Victoria, I know mine were always safe and secure.”

10. Veronica R.

“It was a very nice experience having Veronica cat sit my two fur babies. She was very good at communicating and very responsible! My cats really took to her fast, considering I have one that is very cautious around new people, was warming up to her quickly. When I came home things felt very good, the cats seemed happy and things went very smooth overall! I felt I could trust her so I was at ease while away! Will call again! :)”


11. Kimberly S.

“Kimberly was wonderful and such a great help at the last minute! She gave great updates and photos of my puppers day. Would highly recommend and look forward to using her again!”


12. Nicholas A.

“Nicholas was fantastic! We had our very first meeting a few days before he stayed overnight at my home with my two dogs and two cats for three days and two nights. I was uncomfortable with the idea of having a stranger stay in my home, but Nicholas immediately made me feel at ease upon meeting him. He asked all the right questions and seemed eager to help us. While away, he understood my near panic with leaving my baby Bandit with a stranger, and was caring enough to send me pics of Bandit in bed with him which made me so happy. He responded to every message very quickly. His price AND demeanor beat all else!! I look forward to having you over again soon, Nicholas! Thank you for helping us in a last minute bind!”


13. Vinnie D.

“Vinnie stayed at our place and watched over our dog + 2 cats. He is wonderful! He provided regular updates, gave our dog plenty of exercise + daily medication, and took great care with our apartment. He also went out of his way a day early just to pickup keys since we didn't have a spare set to give him at the meet and greet. He's very trustworthy and we highly recommend him!”
