Gwinevere took very good care of my 10 yr old cat Tina! I am always nervous about new cat sitters because Tina needs medications. Gwinevere was great with her, clearly knowledgeable about cats, and provided Tina all the care and play she needed. Tina was very happy and relaxed when I got home!

Wen is great! This is our second time using her. She's attentive, flexible, and keeps our cat happy while we're away. I found that our cat has gotten much more comfortable being home alone for stretches of time since we started having Wen care for her. And she also proactively helped bring packages inside for us (including some REALLY heavy ones) which I didn't expect & was a nice touch!!

Emily was amazing with our cats! She sent so many updates and pictures. She made sure to befriend both of them even though one is very shy and she made them so comfortable. We will definitely make sure to book her again because the girls loved their time with her!

Leonore is delightful person - extremely reliable and responsive, but most importantly she is very insightful when it comes to animals :) She took care of dog walking for my family all summer, as well as taking excellent care of my cat on a few occasions when we were away. She's very trustworthy and responsible! And as a bonus she's a professionally trained photographer, so you may even get some top tear pet shots to boot!

We recently had David care for our kitties for 16 nights while we were away on vacation. He provided daily check-ins during this time, which included feedings and litter box cleanings. Not only did he do a great job in making sure that our kitties were well cared for, he even sent daily updates which included pics of them! it was clear when we returned home that our kitties were in good hands! We would definitely book with David again and highly recommend him if you are looking for a reliable cat-sitter!

Stephanie was flexible and super easy to communicate with. She gave my cat lots of love and sent great photos! I was really worried about leaving the little man alone for the first time but she clearly made him feel loved and comfortable in their time together. I will definitely ask her to watch Purple again.

Lucas is a very loving caretaker. He is very affectionate. You can just tell by how he interacts with dogs like my Brock that he feels a special connection with animals. He is one of those breed who loves dogs more than people. I don't blame him. While he is responsible and conscientious, he is quiet and reserved around owners. But just watch him light up with your dog. I highly recommend Lucas.

Vanessa has always loved animals since she was a child including volunteering to take the classroom pet home for school holidays. She volunteers for a rescue organization for dogs and cats and has rescued some on her own. She has always had cats and dogs she cared for in my home and also in her own. She has helped friends and neighbors to care for their dogs whenever they needed assistance or when they were unable to care for them for a period of time, including elderly people who were not able to walk them. I know she is dependable and trustworthy and will go above and beyond for any animal in her care. I am sure clients will appreciate her attention to their pets and know that the pet is in good hands. I highly recommend her for a consistently dependable dog walker and care giver for cats and dogs.

Elizabeth was so reliable and I felt so at ease. She checked in everyday and alerted me of an issues that arose (e.g my kitty having tummy issues and advising to get a couch cover). She was so proactive and sweet. I would recommend her 1000 times if I could.

Shariana is the sweetest! She’s gentle and so comforting. She understood my dog needs right away, since he’s a very anxious dog. She is very professional and caring. She bought a very peaceful energy which is exactly what I needed. Highly recommend!

I love working with Julia because she is responsible and kind to pets and humans! She is a terrific communicator about availability and how our dog is doing. She puts in the time that you need with your dog (not just a quick walk) and gives them lots of love and tenderness. She is a natural with animals. I trust her fully with my dog.

Tosha was fantastic. I left for a longer than usual time on vacation; and Tosha came by on daily basis to watch and check-in on my cat, Buddy. Tosha was communicative, helpful, and did a wonderful job watching over him. She even went above and beyond to help clean up after Buddy when he made some messes in the apartment. I'm very grateful for her help, will book her in the future, and recommend others do as well.
