She even took the initiative to clean up around the house, making our return home so much easier! Ashley's flexibility and willingness to help with any potential issues were truly appreciated! We'll be forever grateful for her outstanding care and highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”

I fully trust Anna and I highly recommend her!”

Our home was treated with respect and we plan to contact her again with any other trips we my take.”

“Jamie was wonderful! She cared for Kimber in our home while we traveled out of state for a wedding. She kept in contact with updates and sent lots of pictures. She did a great job with putting Kimber at ease as he can be a bit shy and nervous at first. By the end of the visit he was completely at ease and appeared very happy. I highly recommend Jamie and I will definitely use her again :)”

20. Kyah S.

“Communication was good however we did not receive many unprompted status updates or photos of our pets. During house sitting, was one day that our home entry logs indicated that no one stayed the evening with our pets. A few other logs were noted that indicated time spent in the home was about 2-3 minutes in the evening then returning later. Our dogs were happy to see us and appeared to be fed”
