We had an amazing experience with Tara as our pet sitter! She took care of our two cats for 5 days, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. One of our cats fell ill just a few days before our trip, and Tara went above and beyond to make sure she was well looked after. She administered her medication carefully and kept us updated every day with detailed messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Thanks to Tara's attentive care, our cat stabilized during our time away and is now feeling much better. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating when we had to make some last-minute changes, which we really appreciated. Knowing our cats were in such good hands allowed us to truly relax while we traveled. We highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and communicative pet sitter!

Fenz is professional pet sitter. She sent videos and pictures of my cat to me everyday for an update. My cat usually gets nervous really easy to a strange person. He got so much stress when we put him in the cat hotel long ago so we decided to pay for a pet sitter. And with Fenz is different story. My cat looks really relax with her. When I saw my cat after my business trip, he did not show any sign of stress or hiding somewhere. So Fenz is really trust worthy. Thanks a lot again Fenz for taking a good care of my cat!!
