“Melissa was so wonderful! Our cats were So happy she was there and we loved getting updates on how they were doing. She’s our #1 choice for cat sitting.”


2. Ralph G.
“What I love most about RJ is the personalized care he provides. He took the time to learn about my Tucker’s unique needs and preferences, and it showed! Tucker always looks so happy and relaxed after his walks. It’s clear he treats every dog like his very own. And I’ve also used Ralph for sleepovers for Tucker while I vacation. Tucker loves staying at his place and I know he’s well taken care of.”

“Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️”

“Kristie has always been a loving pet owner who takes care of them like they were her own children. As long as I have known her she always puts the wellbeing of her pets first in any situation, she had two cats with diabetes that she took care of and gave insulin shots every day.I remember she actually had gotten a second job just to help pay for all the medical bills for them that's how dedicated she is to her pets. Dogs and cats always seem to love her personality as they always come up to her. I have know Kristie for over 20 years and she is responsible and prompt on time for whatever engagement she needs to make. My pets love , and I trust her without any worries to take care of them when I am away. She is the perfect person to take care and pet sit for people, dogs and cats can sense her good personality and trust her.”

She sent pictures every day, throughout the day, and text updates. She is a wonderful, kind, and nurturing person, and I am so happy we found her!”




13. Kathy R.

We were very comfortable knowing Kathy was taking care of our dog and two cats for the holidays. Highly recommended.”

I recommend her with my eyes closed, your pets are gonna love her!”
