“Highly recommend! Kareesa watched our Dog while we were gone on a 10-day trip to visit family. She was great with Pepper, and our home was well kept. Kareesa texted photos and communicated clearly with us while we were away. She also has experience training animals, and she had many useful tips for us upon our return. We hope to have Kareesa pet sit again for us on our next trip!”
“Lilith was fantastic with our three kitties. They not only had great communication, they also weren't afraid to ask great questions and generally kept us in the loop about that cats while in another state. They even took care of some large, heavy Fed Ex packages, that show up delayed and broken re-taped by the company, so that our cat with pica wouldn't chew on the tape 😻😻😻. The house was clean and the kitties were happy. I highly recommend them for all your petsitting needs, they have definitely got a way with animals even our part feral cat came out of hiding one day in! 🥳 😻 😻 😻 Thanks again Lilith! 🌈 ☘️🦄”
“Excellent job. All the boys and girls loved Melissa. She sent photos and videos! Checked in and updated. She was kind and caring to all the animals. I felt comfortable with her in my home! I have already shared her information and will certainly be using her again!”
