Emily was incredibly quick to respond, and she was energetic and polite with her communications while watching our pup. We felt like our dog was in good hands, and we won’t hesitate to book with Emily again!

You’ll get a FIVE Star pet sitter with Madison. She was timely, took great care with my home, followed through w/instructions but lost of all she was so sweet with my cat. She communicated quickly and was responsive to my need to over check in on my fur baby. She sent pictures & detailed information regarding her visit/time with Macy. I felt very confident & was able to enjoy my vacation having Madison look after my cat. I’ll book with her again w/o hesitation. I highly recommend booking with her.

Mona did such a wonderful job with our dog while we were gone. She wrote to us every day and sent pictures twice daily. She is positive, very reliable, professional and fun. We returned to a young dog who was calm, secure and well cared for after the longest stretch she had experienced away from her family ever. That is such a wonderful compliment to Mona's care and caring and we thank her so much.

Carol is such a great sitter! I never have to worry when we’re gone, even for the day, that our dogs will be cared for how and when they’re supposed to be. Carol is great about communicating with us, asking any needed questions and always sending us a picture or two of our pups. Don’t hesitate to have her care for your pets - she’s great!

Amy is our "go to" #1 choice for our new puppy, Jac. She took great care of Charlee until he left us last year and we were so excited to let her know we had a new baby to help us with. If you're in the Gainesville area, I highly recommend Amy!!!

Danica was an amazing Rover for our dog! She was super responsive and sent the cutest photos. She gave extra care to our dog during a storm and kept us updated on how she was doing while we were gone. Our dog was well cared for and entertained the whole weekend! We will plan to use Danica again in the future!

We are so thankful that we found Bri to look after our fur babies when we went away for a few days recently. We have four cats, each with their own temperaments and personalities. It was obvious on our first visit that Bri has a lot of experience with cats. She knows just how to approach them and is very kind and caring. She did a wonderful job with handling our cat that is on medications, and sent us pictures and updates of all the cats at each visit. We felt at ease knowing our babies were in very good hands and had no worries at all. Thanks Bri!

Carolyn did a great job watching my sweet cat, Lucy! Carolyn came beforehand for a meet & greet, - she took notes and asked great questions to be best prepared for the visits. Every day I received several pictures and a sweet message about how they spent their time together. By the end of the week, it was clear Carolyn & Lucy had developed a friendship. It was such a relief to know Lucy was in great hands while we were away. Thank you very much. We will definitely book again in the future!
