“Aliyah went above and beyond in taking care of my cats. My youngest fur baby instantly warmed up to her, which is quite rare! Aliyah sent me lots of photos while I was away, easing my separation anxiety. Being away from my cats is never easy, but knowing they were in such great care with Aliyah made it so much better.”

She even braved the cold to get him a walk, which we know he appreciated (and we did too!). We really hope to have Julianne stay again!”

“Tamara was a replacement for a sitter who cancelled very last minute and she arranged to come over the next day for a meet and greet. She definitely loves cats and dogs and wants to do the best for them, maintaining their feeding and exercise schedules. And, they loved her! Neighbors in the building complimented Tamara's friendliness and dedication to dog walking and she cleaned up really well before we returned home. We will definitely employ Tamara when possible in the future.”

Veronica did an amazing job taking care of my two pups while I was out of town on a work trip. One of my dogs is diabetic and requires insulin injections and monitoring. Veronica was very attentive to his needs and consistently communicated how my dogs were doing. I felt truly at peace with her caring for my dogs. Highly recommend her!

Eileen was truly the best for watching our girls! We needed someone last minute and she took the request! It was wonderful knowing they were in such good hands while we were out of state during the holiday! She sent so many pictures that clearly showed my dog and cat were smitten with her! Braving the cold she took my dog on walks that absolutely made her day! Even with a little hiccup with our automatic door lock, there was no panicking on her end and the issue was quickly resolved! We hope to book her again! Your pets are truly in the best hands with Eileen!!
