Brooke D.
“Brooke is a fantastic pet sitter! She pays a lot of attention to my dog, follows my instructions and often goes the extra mile with him without being asked. I was really sick earlier this year and she volunteered to take my dog into her home until I recovered. She kept him for more than two weeks and he loved being with her and didn't want to come home! She is highly accessible, sends pictures of her time with him, and highly recommend Brooke to anyone who wants a caring, helpful, attentive pet lover. In the past she has also taken care of my cat with either same devoted attention and my cat loves her. I also had a geriatric dog that needed special care before he passed and she took excellent care and was a comfort as he was near the end. Definitely recommend with the highest confidence. She is awesome!”

Ariana is absolutely wonderful! She has been kind enough to watch our cats twice now and we are so happy with her services. She is Very kind, polite, professional, trustworthy, punctual and amazing with our 4 cats. Excellent communication, she goes above & beyond to make sure our kitties are very well taken care of in our absence. Our cats love her & enjoy her company so much. We receive updates tons of photos right after each visit. We will continue to ask Ariana to watch our 4 kitties when we’re away. Thanks so much!!
We couldn’t be happier with the care our cat received while we were away! Shahrzad was attentive, reliable, and clearly loves animals. She made sure our cat was well-fed, played with her daily, and sent us regular updates and photos so we could relax knowing she was happy and safe.
Yuliia was an amazing pet sitter who went above and beyond! We were gone for 3 weeks and she really helped our kitties during this period! She fed them, scooped their litter box, played with them and sent daily photos of them! She even brought a toy of her own in to play with the kitties! Our one cats is very shy around other people, but after a few days Yuliia’s sweet personality gained our shy kitty trust and the rest of the time she was out playing. I would definitely use Yuliia again!!! 10/10!!!!!
I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received while I was away. Leyla was absolutely fantastic — not only did she feed them on time and keep their litter boxes spotless, but she also made sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting regular photo and video updates, which really helped ease my mind and showed just how happy and comfortable my cats were. It was clear they were in great hands! My house was exactly as I left it — clean, tidy, and well looked after. It was such a relief to return home to calm, content kitties and everything in perfect order. Highly recommend Leyla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Will definitely book again!
Jayline was great! She asked really good questions during our meet and greet that made me feel really confident that she would take good care of my kitties. I loved all of the photos she shared from her visits, she brought in some mail and packages for us, and the cats did seem to enjoy having her take care of them! 100% would use her again!
Amanda was AMAZING for our very needy cat. She sat with him and gave him the perfect amount of love. He wants so much attention but then gets overstimulated, and Amanda knew exactly how to handle him. Plus she sent amazing photos and updates. I wholeheartedly recommend her!
Brenda was wonderful! Our cat was well taken care of during our time away. She sent pictures every day so we could see how he was doing. When we returned home, we could tell he missed us but could also tell that he was well taken care of. I would definitely hire her again.
