“Bahisha did a great job with our kitty! :) Would definitely rebook her services. She was also very communicative when we had an issue with our water and our landlord needed information and she made sure to bring in all of our mail while we were away.”




2. Madeline S.

“Madeline took excellent care of our big golden retriever! She came out to our house in the morning and evening to feed and walk him. She was always within the time frame that we requested and sent multiple pictures of him each time! Would highly recommend her to care for your dog!”


3. Yaniera T.

“Yaniera is wonderful!! She took such great care of our cat over the holidays, sending me plenty of notes and pictures while we were gone. She really took the time to give our cat lots of pets and playtime, and everything was in perfect order when we got home. She even left a nice card for us! We would definitely book her again if we need a sitter!”

5. Rebekah G.

“This was my first time using Rebekah and also the first time leaving my two kittens. I was a little apprehensive. However, after the meet and greet i knew Rebekah was the one for us! She is professional, articulate, kind. flexible and pleasant. I also have a multitude of plants which I asked her to water. My plans shifted somewhat, and each time Rebekah shifted with them. When I came home everything was perfect. The house even smelled good....hard to accomplish with a litter box. I am grateful to have found Rebekah and cannot recommend her highly enough. She will be our "go to" for all pet needs moving forward.”


6. Juli F.


“Juli was highly professional from start to finish. She followed my lengthy instructions to a T and sent detailed reports upon each visit. She did a great job respecting the boundaries of our four shy cats and didn’t force unwanted contact. She also had to clean up a handful of messes, which we so appreciate. We received plentiful photos that made us smile when we were away from home. Knowing our pets were in Juli’s care gave us a worry-free vacation.”

I highly recommend Mandy to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. I'll definitely be booking again!”
