“Yuan was really sweet and caring to my dog. She sends me updates in the form of texts and videos that gave me peace of mind- knowing that my pet is in good hands. Grateful that she accepted my booking at the last minute, and some modifications. 10/10 💙”
“We had an amazing experience with xiaoting while we were in the hospital delivering our baby. She was incredibly flexible with our changing dates and pickup timing, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during such an unpredictable time. She went above and beyond by preparing Mocha’s food when needed and kept us updated with frequent videos and messages throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Mocha was. When we needed to extend her stay unexpectedly, she was extremely accommodating and treated her like he was her own dog. We could truly see in every video how much love and attention Mocha received, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her time there. We are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Eileen was so quick & response in communicating. Definitely recommend her My cat is a rescue & fairly new to me so I wasn’t sure how he would react to boarding. Eileen sent photos & communication almost every day & my cat looked so content. He came back looking healthy & happy.”
“I am awestruck. I have been searching for a reliable boarding service for my two dogs for years, and have always been left with an "icky" feeling, either with boarders not seeming like they are fully caring for our dogs or a reluctance to send photos or videos. Caihua and her husband will now be our go-to for boarding and day care moving forward. They are incredibly kind and deeply care for the dogs they board. And more than anything they are incredibly patient and listen to dogs' individual needs. There was not a single correspondence with Caihua that didn't receive a response in one minute or less. And Caihua sent tons of videos throughout the day, including videos of our dogs actually relaxing! Which they don't typically do when anxious in boarding. Caihua and her husband have some magic way with dogs; the videos they sent showed the probably dozen dogs they were boarding at that time, and I have never seen a calmer group of dogs -- just calmly following her husband around as he walked the huge backyard. I am incredibly grateful to have found Caihua, and can't wait to book with her again.”
“Lulu loves spending time with Rebecca and her family. As I drive up to her house, Lulu starts wagging her tail and she can't wait to greet Rebecca. Rebecca is super accommodating and is really great about sending me updates whiles LuLu is staying with her. I never work about Lulu's well being when she's staying with Rebecca. ”
“Omg, she was an amazing dog sitter for our dog, Kkomi! Kkomi is a very sensitive dog—he can tell when he’s not getting enough love and attention, and changes in his environment can easily make him sick. But it seemed like he had such a wonderful time with Mrs. Shin K and her husband. They clearly took great care of him and made him feel comfortable and loved. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely be reaching out to her again the next time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Arthur was a wonderful sitter for our dog! He responded quickly to any questions and sent plenty of updates with pictures. We would love for our dog to stay with Arthur again in the future!”
“Wonderful experience, delightful family , friendly, communicative, flexible with time, sending daily photo and video updates , overall a wonderful experience! Five stars ! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a dog - loving family, caring for breeds of all sizes - from Labrador Retriever and Beagle to my current Labradoodle. Through the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior and how to care for each pup based on their unique personality and needs. I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and easy to reach - I prioritize clear communication and am available 24/7 for updates or questions. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for your dog, just like home. I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can give them the best possible experience. Please feel free to share any details, preferences, or routines! My husband and I both work from home, so there’s almost always someone here to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. We want every dog in our home to feel safe, comfortable, and included - not like they’re simply being “watched.” Our goal is to keep your dog entertained, secure, and happily engaged while they’re with us. We have a big yard that allows the dogs plenty of outdoor space to run around and sun-bathe when they need to. There are different areas in the house that we can section off if your dog needs more quiet and alone time. We have built a safe and trusting environment to accommodate different needs.
“Julie and Justin were great. At first my wife and I weren't sure about leaving Archie with someone other than another family member, but Archie was well taken care of and we were very happy with the experience. Julie and Justin sent plenty of pictures and videos of Archie and i quickly noticed that Archie was fine and having fun. We were on vacation and it was as though Archie was on vacation too. There was plenty of room indoors and plenty of room outdoors for Archie to play. We are thankful for Julie and Justin being patient and loving to our doggy Archie. We would definitely request them again for Archie.”
“Amy was great! They took excellent care of my dog, providing regular updates and ensuring he was happy and well-exercised. My dog immediately felt comfortable with them, and I returned to a content and well-cared-for pet. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!”
“Debbie and Bill took such wonderful care of our baby boy, Bodie! They were so easy to work with, they sent us photos and made sure to check in with us while we were away. I’m so happy to have found Debbie and Bill! Thank you for everything- we will definitely be rebooking!”
“Anne and Jason were wonderful and took great care of our old dog Coco. They provided us with updates and pictures of our dog which gave us great peace of mind. She seemed so content with the care they provided that she almost didn’t want to come home. Would definitely have them watch my pet again.”
“Yilin is easy to work with and a great communicator. She is nice and update with video and pictures several times thru out the day. Will definitely use her service again. Thank you Yilin”
“From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was in good hands. The sitters were kind, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Kai felt at home. We received regular updates, photos, and videos. Kai came back happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a blessing to find sitters who treat your dog like one of their own. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, loving care for their furry family member. Thank you again for everything—you’ve earned our full trust!”
“Star was an excellent sitter! When I dropped off Moose, I could tell she was a good caretaker. We got daily updates and pictures. She was also very patient to tend to his needs since he was acting a bit strange the first night being in a new environment. She had about 10 dogs at her house one night and still managed to send me pictures and updates. Overall he seemed to have a great time with her. We’ll definitely be booking with Star again!”

I understand that cats may need time and patience to feel comfortable, and I will treat every cat with care and respect.

I’ve had family members and friends ask me to walk or take care of their pups sometimes. I even have a dog of my own named Luna 😊 I am working a part time job at the moment, which allows me to have free time to be able to hang out with your fur babies! ☺️ I have a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of access for your dog.

About: "As a pet owner, I have gained valuable experience in providing proper care for my furry friend. This includes feeding them a balanced diet, ensuring they get enough exercise and mental stimulation, keeping up with their grooming needs, and taking them to the veterinarian for regular check-ups and vaccinations. I have also learned the importance of being patient and compassionate when caring for pets, as they rely on us for their well-being. Overall, my experience in pet care has taught me the joys and responsibilities that come with being a pet owner." I’m very flexible, but prefer heads up since I do other side gigs also Monday to Sunday available in case i’m not the app will let you know "As a pet owner, I have gained valuable experience in providing proper care for my furry friend.

About: We’re longtime cat people with experience caring for kittens, adult cats, senior cats, shy cats, social cats, and the wonderfully particular personalities in between. We understand that good cat care is often about paying attention to the small things: appetite, litter box habits, energy levels, hiding, vocalizing, grooming, and changes in normal behavior. We’re patient with cats who need time to warm up and equally happy to provide playtime, affection, brushing, enrichment, or a quiet lap for cats who want company. We’re comfortable following detailed feeding routines, keeping litter areas clean, administering medication when needed, and caring for senior cats who may need a gentler pace or extra observation. Most importantly, we don’t force interaction. We let each cat tell us what makes them comfortable and keep their routine as familiar as possible while you’re away. Our goal is for you to come home to a relaxed cat who acted like your absence was barely worth mentioning. 😉
About: I’ve had experience with cats and kittens since I was 10 years old. Family and friends have relied on me to sit, check in, feed and play with their furry babies. I have helped stray kittens/cats off the street from sick to starving. I have experience in bottle feeding kittens and caring for all ages of cats from older to younger. Most of my experience with cats are animals that I found off the street and cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of cats, have lived in spaces with their presence, and used to be a cat parent! I am experienced in feeding, supplying water, administering medication, as well as getting in a proper play sesh. Throw me a pooper scooper, and your litter box will be pristine!

“Alan was well taken care of. Annette sent pictures and was always available for any questions leading up to and during the stay. Alan can be very hyper and she handled him well. Would definitely recommend Annette and I would use her again.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about the care my Lexi received! From the moment we connected, it was clear that Kathryn treats every dog as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to make Lexi feel comfortable, loved, and happy while I was away. Her attention to detail, constant communication, and genuine affection for my pup truly stood out. I received thoughtful updates, photos, and even little stories about Lexi’s day that made me feel connected and at ease. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated, trustworthy, and compassionate. Lexi came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone extraordinary, someone who doesn’t just “watch” your dog but genuinely loves and cares for them, look no further. She is simply the best, and I am beyond grateful for the peace of mind she gave me.”
“Working with Star was great! 😊 We left Milo our 6-month old shepherd mix for two days. It was great that we could leave him and get updates from her afterwards. We are glad Milo enjoyed his stay.”

“First time to use their services, and I’m very happy. They took my baby (coco - standard poodle 1 yr 7 mos old) in even if it was a short notice. They took care of her and when we picked her up she seemed happy even during drop off she wasn’t shaking which she does all the time during drop offs”
“Gricelda was very professional and attentive. She took care of my baby well. She sent updates, which I appreciate it. She followed instructions well and was quick to respond. I will use her services again in the future. I would recommend her.”
“Mel is an excellent dog sitter! We booked our first day care before my dog, Lucifur, was diagnosed with some limiting orthopedic issues that will soon require surgery. That means he now has to have his movement someone restricted to protect him from injury. When I gave Mel this update and asked if he would still be able to care for Lucifur, he was enthusiastic to watch him. In fact, when I arrived on the first day, Mel had thoughtfully set up a secure area for Lucifur to relax in AND had a plan to keep our dogs separated so Lucifur wouldn't get over excited and run/jump around. Mel was really thoughtful in ensuring that Lucifur had an environment that was safe and he put me at ease. Lucifur enjoys hanging out with Mel and Roxy and I feel confident that he's in great hands. Mel will be out #1 Rover choice from now on!”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Lily, a professional pet groomer and pet trainer with a deep love for animals. I have 15 years of experience in pet grooming. To have more flexible hours and take care of my 9-year-old daughter, I’ve chosen to work as a pet sitter. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats—feeding them, grooming their fur, cleaning their sleeping pads, and even just hugging them brings me so much happiness. For almost two years, I’ve been volunteering with the World Animal Foundation. On weekends, I dedicate time to helping at the rescue center by cleaning the cattery, caring for pets, or assisting adopters during open adoption days. I would be honored to take care of your beloved dogs and cats. You can trust that my passion for animals and professional expertise make me well-suited for this role. I have a 9-year-old daughter who is in the fourth grade of elementary school. Currently, except for picking her up and dropping her off at school from Monday to Friday, I am at home almost all day, so I can take good care of the boarding pets and take the dog out for a walk at the agreed time. I have a regular schedule and I have a 4b3b house that can accommodate boarding pets. My house has a spacious and clean backyard with a closed fence to ensure the safety of cats and dogs to the greatest extent. In addition, there are clean sleeping mats, nutritious and healthy food and purified water for all pets. In addition, I can pick up and drop off pets at home for a fee.

About: I have many years of experience with dogs & cats of all sizes. I am very skilled at reading an animal’s comfort level & energy. I would love to help look after your pets! I take some classes at the local college, but otherwise I just work from home For myself so I have a good deal of flexibility. I would love to pop in on your pets & take care of them! I am currently only offering to do drop-ins & dog walks because I have two cats of my own at my home that I don’t want to stress out as they are skittish. I am happy to take your dogs for walks as well as visiting your place to spend some time cuddling, feeding, and caring for all your pets.
About: For over 12 years, I’ve dedicated myself to being the best pet parent I can be, caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as cats. My passion for animals goes beyond just the basics; I believe every pet deserves attentive, loving care and a healthy, happy environment. I treat every pet in my care the same way I treat my own, with patience, consistency, and a whole lot of love. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. I’ve had pets for over 12 years, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and health check-ins are already built into my daily rhythm. This makes it easy for me to seamlessly incorporate your pet into my routine without disruption. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or evening cuddle session, I make sure every pet in my care gets consistent attention throughout the day. When caring for a pet in their own home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal as possible, because familiar surroundings and schedules help pets feel safe and stress-free. I follow any instructions the owner provides regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and preferences. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect and keep communication open by sending updates, photos, and messages so owners always know their pet is in good hands. I bring the same level of care and attention to your pet that I give to my own.
“This is my first booking with Jocye, and I am very happy with her service. She is energetic and easy to work with. My dog, who is a senior and requires extra care, is well looked after by Jocye. I will definitely rebook her.”
About: I have five years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog. I am comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and following their regular routines. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs. I will treat every pet with the same care and kindness I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can provide dog walks and drop-in visits on both weekdays and weekends. I will make sure your pet receives enough exercise, playtime, attention, and care according to their regular routine. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions carefully and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and avoid unsafe areas. I will provide fresh water, keep the home clean, and send regular photo updates.
About: I am a passionate pet lover who has had years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even hamsters! I provide pets with lots of love and attention and make sure that they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you are away! I am available for walks, feeding, playing, or even just keeping your pet company! I am currently doing a remote internship and have plenty of time to care for your pet's needs! I would love to be able to get out of the house and walking dogs is the perfect opportunity to get some fresh air and exercise. I also have two cats of my own so caring for another cat will be no problem! I love animals and love being around them! I have a fenced-off backyard with a large shaded patio area as well as some grass space. The front yard has a nice patch of grass as well but is not completely fenced off. Pets are free to roam throughout the house, however, it should be noted that I have two cats. They are accustomed to being around other animals but will be shy and keep their distance. I have enough space for a crate if your animal is crate-trained.
About: We’re experienced with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a slower pace, extra patience, medication, or a closely followed routine and plenty of beloved plants. What sets us apart, though, is how we care. We’re calm, observant, detail-oriented, and very comfortable following the little routines that make your pets feel secure. We notice when someone’s appetite is different, when a walk needs to be shorter, when the shy cat would rather make the first move, or when a pet simply needs a little more company that day. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine and is something we plan around with intention. We keep our schedule flexible so we can give each pet the time, attention, exercise, companionship, and supervision they actually need, without rushing through care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we treat both the animal and the home with a high level of care, respect, and discretion. We take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, temperament, boundaries, and environment so we can recognize what is typical for them and respond thoughtfully if something changes. For walks and visits, safety comes first. We pay close attention to weather, surroundings, energy levels, other animals, and any individual sensitivities or triggers. We follow the household’s established preferences while also using experienced judgment when conditions call for an adjustment. We are careful with home access, doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, medications provided by the owner, and any special household protocols. We also believe trust means keeping clients informed without making them feel like they need to manage us from afar. Our goal is simple: your pet should feel secure, understood, and well cared for, and you should feel confident knowing both your pet and your home are in responsible hands.
“Shelby is a lifesaver! She accepted my last-minute Christmas request and even suggested a meet and greet beforehand to ensure a good fit. She walked Sushi for the exact time and distance requested, even with rain in the forecast. Reliable, professional, and dedicated—I can’t thank her enough for taking good care of Sushi for the first booking!!”
About: I have been around and taken care of puppies and dogs since I was a little girl. Ever since then, my love and care towards dogs has grown. I’ve had family members and friends ask me to walk or take care of their pups sometimes. I even have a dog of my own named Luna 😊 I am working a part time job at the moment, which allows me to have free time to be able to hang out with your fur babies! ☺️ I have a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of access for your dog. I also follow any rules that are given to me in order to make your dog have a happy and productive time.
About: I'm super patient and I'm very attentive. I just love looking after others in general and I find joy in work like this. I've looked after my sick parents and after my sibling most of my life, I was also one of the eldest kids in my church community so I was depended on to look after them a lot of the times as well. From there I was depended on for other things like looking after the occasional pet by family friends from the church and from my own friends. As of right now regularly help take care of my girlfriend's little Pomeranian and I love him. Right now, all I am is a full-time student so other than my classes I have very little commitment and will be free for most requests. Even if my schedule overlaps I also have a very flexible schedule so I don't have to consider if I'm free too much. When with a pet, I am not just physically present but mentally too, ready to anticipate any need and determine how to satisfy it. Always ready to look out for any potential danger and on my toes to be ready to deal with anything if needed.
About: Hey fur mom and dad! My name is Ary. A little bit about myself is I am a pre-nursing student currently enrolled online through Arizona State University where I plan to earn a Bachelors in Science in Nursing. When I am not working on school work, I am spending time with family and friends, walking my own fur babies or volunteering at my local animal shelter. I currently have 3 dachshunds, 1 Chihuahua, and 1 Maltipoo-Terrier mix as my children. I have grown up in a family of dog lovers where they taught me to treat animals with love, kindness, and like your children. To say I love dogs is an understatement. My dream is to one day open an animal/dog sanctuary so I can foster dogs, rehabilitate them, and find them safe homes without fear of euthanasia. Dogs have the ability to heal people without ever saying a word. They’re family. Other than raising multiple dogs through out my childhood, I have 2 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking. I also have 1 year of experience volunteer at my local animal shelter where I walk, feed, and love on these beautiful dogs. As I mentioned previously, I am schooling online so my availability to care for your babies is mostly open except for somedays of the week after 6 pm as I also work part time. My schedule can be adjusted given a week’s notice ahead of time as your pets are my number 1 priority. Feel free to message me about any schedule concerns and I guarantee we can come to a solution together! When it comes to caring for your pets, it is my job to pick up their pre-existing routines and also make sure they can make fun and safe new activities with Fur Auntie Ary. I can’t wait to meet some new furry friends and earn your trust as well as theirs. See you all soon!
About: I started keeping cats in 2015, and currently I care for three cats and three dogs. The dogs are small breeds (a Shiba Inu and a Maltese), while the cats are American Shorthairs. My work primarily involves night shifts, so I have plenty of time during the day to play with your pets, look after them, and monitor their health.

Whether it’s a walk in the neighborhood, feeding time, or quiet cuddles at home, I make sure every dog feels safe and loved.

“Yuan was really sweet and caring to my dog. She sends me updates in the form of texts and videos that gave me peace of mind- knowing that my pet is in good hands. Grateful that she accepted my booking at the last minute, and some modifications. 10/10 💙”
“We had an amazing experience with xiaoting while we were in the hospital delivering our baby. She was incredibly flexible with our changing dates and pickup timing, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during such an unpredictable time. She went above and beyond by preparing Mocha’s food when needed and kept us updated with frequent videos and messages throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Mocha was. When we needed to extend her stay unexpectedly, she was extremely accommodating and treated her like he was her own dog. We could truly see in every video how much love and attention Mocha received, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her time there. We are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“I am awestruck. I have been searching for a reliable boarding service for my two dogs for years, and have always been left with an "icky" feeling, either with boarders not seeming like they are fully caring for our dogs or a reluctance to send photos or videos. Caihua and her husband will now be our go-to for boarding and day care moving forward. They are incredibly kind and deeply care for the dogs they board. And more than anything they are incredibly patient and listen to dogs' individual needs. There was not a single correspondence with Caihua that didn't receive a response in one minute or less. And Caihua sent tons of videos throughout the day, including videos of our dogs actually relaxing! Which they don't typically do when anxious in boarding. Caihua and her husband have some magic way with dogs; the videos they sent showed the probably dozen dogs they were boarding at that time, and I have never seen a calmer group of dogs -- just calmly following her husband around as he walked the huge backyard. I am incredibly grateful to have found Caihua, and can't wait to book with her again.”
“Wonderful experience, delightful family , friendly, communicative, flexible with time, sending daily photo and video updates , overall a wonderful experience! Five stars ! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a dog - loving family, caring for breeds of all sizes - from Labrador Retriever and Beagle to my current Labradoodle. Through the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior and how to care for each pup based on their unique personality and needs. I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and easy to reach - I prioritize clear communication and am available 24/7 for updates or questions. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for your dog, just like home. I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can give them the best possible experience. Please feel free to share any details, preferences, or routines! My husband and I both work from home, so there’s almost always someone here to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. We want every dog in our home to feel safe, comfortable, and included - not like they’re simply being “watched.” Our goal is to keep your dog entertained, secure, and happily engaged while they’re with us. We have a big yard that allows the dogs plenty of outdoor space to run around and sun-bathe when they need to. There are different areas in the house that we can section off if your dog needs more quiet and alone time. We have built a safe and trusting environment to accommodate different needs.
“Julie and Justin were great. At first my wife and I weren't sure about leaving Archie with someone other than another family member, but Archie was well taken care of and we were very happy with the experience. Julie and Justin sent plenty of pictures and videos of Archie and i quickly noticed that Archie was fine and having fun. We were on vacation and it was as though Archie was on vacation too. There was plenty of room indoors and plenty of room outdoors for Archie to play. We are thankful for Julie and Justin being patient and loving to our doggy Archie. We would definitely request them again for Archie.”
“Debbie and Bill took such wonderful care of our baby boy, Bodie! They were so easy to work with, they sent us photos and made sure to check in with us while we were away. I’m so happy to have found Debbie and Bill! Thank you for everything- we will definitely be rebooking!”
“Yilin is easy to work with and a great communicator. She is nice and update with video and pictures several times thru out the day. Will definitely use her service again. Thank you Yilin”
“From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was in good hands. The sitters were kind, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Kai felt at home. We received regular updates, photos, and videos. Kai came back happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a blessing to find sitters who treat your dog like one of their own. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, loving care for their furry family member. Thank you again for everything—you’ve earned our full trust!”
“Star was an excellent sitter! When I dropped off Moose, I could tell she was a good caretaker. We got daily updates and pictures. She was also very patient to tend to his needs since he was acting a bit strange the first night being in a new environment. She had about 10 dogs at her house one night and still managed to send me pictures and updates. Overall he seemed to have a great time with her. We’ll definitely be booking with Star again!”
“Jessica is amazing. We’ve used her previously, but this time for a week and a half. Great as always very helpful and definitely shows care in our furry family member. Always updates us with a status and pic daily. We feel very comfortable with leaving Ellie in Jessica’s care. I would recommend using her service to anyone!”
“We highly recommend Crystal for any of your dog care needs!! She shared super cute photos of our pup during his stay with her and played lots of fetch. Her response times and communication were top notch. The pickup, drop off, and booking were a breeze. Thank you Crystal for doing such a great job. 😊”
“Josephine was wonderful with my sometimes feral kitty. It was my first time leaving her and so nervous about how my kitty would react. I was so nervous I forgot a lots of things so i had to send her many things later on, but she was very kind and patient with my panic mode and reassured me that She will take care of my wild one. My kitty has food issues and trauma from being a stray. She fed her 4 times a day to special food to reassure her. Handled her so well, my kitty was happy and calm, i hope. Josephine did not complain about anything and went out of her way to make sure my kitty was comfortable. And also this was a short notice boarding and she accept it kindly.Thank you so much .”
“Liqiong was able to care for my cat, Bingsu, last minute and was so wonderful with her. She was very thorough and made sure Bingsu was comfortable the entire time. I'll be sure to bring her back next time!”
