3. Melanie L.
“Melanie is great! She’s taken care of my girls in 3 extended trips and I just never have to worry. She communicates when needed which I love because it allows me to disconnect. I love the small updates and photos she provides. Also just is thoughtful regarding the basic away from home needs such as mail, trash etc and has been willing to help me there too.”

15. Ricki B.
“Ricki has helped me with my puppy Bailey several times. Bailey is VERY high maintenance and not the most behaved. Ricki never let that get in the way or providing the best and warmest care for my pup. I am extremely protective of Bailey and I spoil her a lot. Ricki goes above and beyond with matching the same level of love, kindness, and protectiveness I do with Bailey. Not only is Ricki great with Bailey, but she has amazing communication with me and is very timely. There has NEVER been a moment that I’ve felt I couldn’t trust her with Bailey or being in my home. I fully recommend Ricki to take care of your pets, it is a 10/10 experience!”
16. Jenna S.
“Great communication, trustworthy, and prompt. Would absolutely recommend Jenna to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur babes.”
17. Sara G.
“Sara has been wonderful with my new timid puppy. Her updates and communications are very thorough. I’ve been using her for twice daily visits while at work and will definitely continue booking with her.”
18. Kylie S.
“This was my first time booking with Kylie and I truly hope I never have to find anyone else to watch our two cats! She took so many photos, videos, and left notes documenting how her visit went. We have 1 shy cat who never comes out for anyone and he came out for her on the first day. Our other cat was purring and so content in all of the videos. She made our trip so much less stressful and was so easy to communicate back and forth with. Highly recommend Kylie and we are looking forward to booking with her again in the future!”
19. Katelynn S.
“I highly recommend Katelynn as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible and genuinely loves animals. Her own dogs have been trained well enough and are so intentionally cared for that they were part of her wedding ceremony. She also has experience with chronically ill pets and has the medical knowledge and familiarity with vet care that can assure you that she will know who can care for your pet best in a crisis. Katelynn has a natural ability to engage pets comfortably and safely, and she goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy and healthy.”
20. Payton H.
“Payton was wonderful to my tuxies. She let them enjoy their normal routine of getting outside and was a huge help when I was out of reach for a situation. She truly cared for the kitties. Thank you!”
