“Anne took good care of my cat Sully while I was away for the holidays! She was proactive and asked if I’d like him brushed or his nails trimmed, which was so considerate of her. She provided timely updates and was able to take care of small favors I asked from her. Sully seemed to enjoy his time with her. I recommend her as a sitter!”

17. Jennifer Z.
“I am so lucky to have found Jen to watch my dogs! I have two large breed dogs (leonbergers) that no longer did well in a boarding facility. We needed to find someone who was comfortable with their size, and had experience around larger dogs. Jen stayed with them at our house and was able to walk with them. I loved that she sent videos and pictures every day so I could see what a good time they were having. When I got home I could tell how comfortable they were given she stuck to their routine, since they didn’t have the normal crash they used to after being picked up from the boarding facility. I am at ease knowing the next time I go on vacation I can plan to have Jen watch them.”
18. Shan J.
