1. Sarah L.
“Sarah was wonderful in taking care of our cats. She was communicative while we were gone - providing great updates. She went above and beyond by cleaning up our litter room and made sure everything was nice and tidy. We appreciate it so much Sara, and will definitely want you back!”
2. Brittany P.
“Brittany has helped me with my outdoor cats a few times now and is very reliable and communicative. I will continue to book with her and recommend her to others looking for pet care.”
3. Colleen D.

4. Tiffany H.
“Tiffany has been a great sitter for our little fur- and feather-babies. We've really appreciated the peace of mind she gave us with her steady communication, extensive pet-care knowledge, and dependability. I highly recommend her.”
5. Lauren W.
“I got in a bind with my work schedule and had to find someone trustworthy asap to come do a drip-in visit for my sweet boy. Lauren responded immediately, communicated really well, and helped build a game-plan on the fly. Trying to do everything last second wasn’t ideal, but she made it so easy that she’ll definitely be my go-to for any future doggo needs. Huge help! Oh, and, my dog looked SUPER happy in the photos she provided, and he hates when I try to take pictures of him.”

8. Briana N.
“Briana was great! I appreciate her willingness to get to know my reactive dog as he comes off aggressive at first with strangers but is a sweet heart when he warms up to them. I was confident I was leaving him in great hands while I had to go out of town.”
9. Autumn V.
“Autumn was amazing!”
10. Michaela M.
“Michaela was super nice and took care of both of our cats while out of town. She sent updates daily and we loved getting photos of our cats. Great communication and an overall pleasant experience! Thank you Michaela!”
11. Kimberly F.
“She is very reliable. Did everything we requested and spoiled are dogs while we were away”
12. Victoria N.
“Victoria was an absolute amazing sitter with our medium size Catahoula Black Mouth Cur. It didn’t bother her at all dealing with a larger pet. I could really tell she cared for him and wasn’t just doing a pet babysitting job. He usually doesn’t eat much when we are away but Victoria had a couple of clever ideas and he was eating and drinking like a happy fella. He likes people and doesn’t like being alone so Victoria’s hour visit twice a day really helped those lonesome times. She would play with him and his toys, take him outside and cuddle with affection to makeup the fact we left him behind. We received reports and pictures twice a day as well as text messages when she had questions about his lack of appetite and her ideas to help. I am very appreciative and thankful for Victoria’s hard caring work with our dog. We will confidently ask again for her services with our dog.”
13. Laurinda J.
“Laurinda was friendly, detailed and professional. She checked in each day and sent multiple photos which I appreciated. She truly loves animals and is great at what she does. Would def use her again and would recommend her. Thanks Again Laurinda!”
14. Christine S.
“Christine has cared for animals as long as I’ve known her and regularly volunteers at the local shelter. Christine shows pets both the respect they deserve and all the love, play, and attention they ask for! My pup loves Christine 🐕🐾”
15. Michelle G.
“Michelle made a great first impression when met, so it was easy to trust her with my puppy! She communicated well and was so good with Murphy!!!”
16. Sarah S.
“Sarah has taken care of my (14 year old) lil guy several times. Because of his age, it is hard to board him or leave him with anyone. Unfortunately I travel frequently for work, and Sarah has been the best! Sarah even brings him new dog treats, and always communicates with me regarding his care! I highly recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs!”
17. Kristen W.
“Kristen was awesome! Was very helpful and understanding of what our dog needed/wanted. I’d highly recommend her if you need someone to take your of your pet. I will definitely be asking for her again in the future!”
18. Sofia S.
“I had the pleasure of having Sofia care for my pets, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with her services. Her extensive experience in pet sitting and dog walking truly shines through in her attentive and compassionate approach. Sofia not only understands animal needs but also builds genuine bonds with them, ensuring they feel safe and loved. Her professionalism and dedication make her stand out as a top-notch pet caregiver. I highly recommend Sofia to anyone in need of reliable and caring pet services.”
19. Katielynn F.
