“Niki is absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our sweet Cora. Cora was comfortable and happy, which gave us so much peace of mind. Niki sent regular updates & adorable photos of their adventures together. It was clear that she genuinely cared and went the extra mile to make Cora feel loved and at ease. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive sitter, Niki is the best! We’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Niki! ❤️🐾”

She sent pictures, videos, and updates every time she made a visit and Milo took to her very well— through the videos she sent I could tell that he was really comfortable with her. From here on out, if I ever need a cat sitter, Sasha will absolutely be my first point of contact. I HIGHLY recommend you book with her!”
