I felt very comfortable with Emily taking care of my cats and would recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent caregiver. I will definitely ask Emily to drop in again!”
“I’m so very impressed by the care that Kailey showed my dog!! She walked him, changed his water daily and treated him well!! Thank you once again for helping me this week!”
“Marisa did an excellent job caring for our cats. She followed our instructions, and she exceeded our expectations by taking out the garbage and putting in a fresh bag, as well as changing out the litter bag! It wasn't required, but we appreciated it! We will definitely call on Marisa again, because we can trust her, and she's dependable.”

“Brynn was great with our cat while we were away. We felt very at-ease given her experience with animals. She kept us updated and sent pictures, so we knew our little lady was well taken care of. Brynn was even able to coax her out of her hiding spot the first day… which is no easy feat! This is a cat who does not warm up to new people quickly, but she took to Brynn right away! We will definitely be using her services again!”

My adult daughter is also home and is experienced and comfortable with dogs of all sizes.

Madison K.
“Madie has watched our huge Great Danes several times....and trust me they are needy fur kids. I am able to go away on my vacations without a worry in the world. I know that they will be well taken care of and loved. Since these human-like pups need to be near you and hands-on 99% of the time, I am rest-assured that she will be tossing a ball in the air or taking them for regular walks. I highly recommend Madie to take care of anyone's pet...she will even water your plants :-)”
