My 2 kitties enjoyed having Carrie come over 3x while I was on a trip. This is my 3rd time booking her. She is an excellent communicator and my cats trust her. She sends great reports and adorable pictures. She plays with my one friendly baby!

Ashna is not just a dog walker; she's a true companion to my pet, Jax. She approaches the caregiving for Jax with genuine love and dedication, treating Jax like her own. Ashna's professionalism and reliability are unmatched. I never have to worry when Jax is out with her. She communicates promptly, provides regular updates, and always goes the extra mile to ensure my pet's safety and happiness; including sending me cute pictures during their jaunts. Thanks to Ashna, I have peace of mind knowing that my cutie pie Jax is not only getting the exercise they need but also receiving the love and attention they deserve. I highly recommend Ashna to anyone looking for a compassionate, trustworthy, and top-notch dog caregiver!

Anthony deserves Infinity stars. He is hands down the BEST!!! Do yourself and your pet a favor and hire him. Where do I start with this gem of a person....no words seem adequate enough...so I will try and know that he is a million times and over what I write. Anthony was so through. He went above and beyond what I needed from him. He spent a lot of time with my pup and definitely showed him so much love. I enjoyed reading all the updates he had for Zane and all the pictures. Anthony was also very accommodating. Any request I had that was not previously requested He was happy to accomodate me. It was easy for me to leave my dog with Anthony because I knew he would take amazing care of him. He will always be the 1st person I reach out to if I ever need someone for my dog. Even my dog loves him soooo much. Thank you Anthony. You really are the BEST. I don't say it to be saying it.. I say it bc I mean it. Thank you very much. Zane thanks you too.

This is the second time Jocelyn has watched our cats while we had a weekend trip and she did an amazing job again! She was super responsive and always let me know when she was heading over and had arrived. I know my kitties are in good hands when she is watching them!

During my two-week trip, I entrusted Lucy to care for my two cats, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Lucy was incredibly attentive, consistently arriving at my apartment right on time to feed, clean up, and play with my furry companions. She even made sure to turn on the air conditioning as per my request, ensuring a cozy environment for them. Communication was seamless, with Lucy regularly sending me updates and plenty of photos, which kept me reassured and connected to my pets. It was truly a delightful experience, and I'm immensely grateful for her dedication and care!

This was my second booking with Iryna. When I came back from my previous trip, I noticed my cat was a lot calmer and loving than coming back from trips with other sitters, so there was no doubt about using her services again. She has great communication and documents everything really well. I got daily pictures and video’s of Iryna playing with and caring for Yuki. She was also flexible to come back to us, with a last minute booking, both in location and time. I would absolutely use her services again and I absolutely recommend her for any other cat parents :) thanks Iryna for being there !

Theodora was great. She came and looked after our two cats once a day for a week. They got plenty of treats and catnip to keep them busy while we were away. I will book again!

Imagine leaving your beloved cat with a sitter who transforms from a stranger to a trusted companion, all while you’re miles away. This isn’t just a wishful thought; it’s my reality with Stacy, the remarkable sitter for my cherished Einstein deCat. Stacy has ‘sat’ for Einstein a couple of times, and each experience has been warmly received by him. Before the pandemic, I traveled frequently, and Einstein was accustomed to my absence. What initially attracted me to Stacy was her commitment to spending a full 30 minutes each visit, not merely completing the basics. As I resumed extended travels, I knew Einstein needed someone to be that other ‘hooman’ in his space, and Stacy was the perfect fit. Her daily pictures and occasional videos weren’t just updates; they were windows into the growing bond between her and Einstein. I’ve seen him allow her to comb his fur, a privilege he doesn’t give to just anyone, and relax next to her on the couch, a testament to their mutual affection. This isn’t mere pet sitting; it’s creating a caring environment for Einstein in my absence. I am confident in Stacy’s ability to manage any cat crisis. Should the need arise, I trust her to communicate effectively with me and any vet care providers, ensuring continuity and care tailored to any new circumstances. In a world where genuine care and trust are rare gems, finding Stacy has been a blessing. She doesn’t just watch over Einstein; she provides peace of mind, a happy cat to return to, and the freedom for me to enjoy my travels. Stacy isn’t just a cat sitter; she’s a guardian angel for both me and Einstein deCat.

Riley was so kind and communicative!! She helped out in a pinch (we needed help getting our dog dropped off and picked up from a vet appt several hours later), and she provided lots of very prompt updates and photos of our sweet girl. It’s clear that Riley took great care of Emmy (offering water when they were out, buckling her into a doggie seat-belt, etc.) Definitely recommend!
