I recently had the pleasure of hiring Elisa and Aleks to take care of my birds, and I couldn't be more thrilled with their outstanding service. From the outset, their professionalism and genuine love for animals were immediately apparent, putting my mind at ease. Elisa and Aleks visited our home every three days to feed and care for our birds, and their dedication was evident in every visit. They took the time to understand the specific needs of each bird, ensuring they received the proper care and attention. Their meticulous approach and attention to detail were truly commendable. One of the highlights of their service was the regular updates I received. Elisa and Aleks provided detailed reports and photos during each visit, allowing me to see firsthand how happy and well-cared-for my birds were in my absence. This level of communication was incredibly reassuring and demonstrated their commitment to providing exceptional care. Their reliability and punctuality were also impressive. Knowing that my birds were in such capable hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without any worries. Upon my return, my birds were healthy, content, and clearly well-looked-after. What truly sets Elisa and Aleks apart is their kindness and genuine affection for the animals they care for. My birds responded positively to their gentle and caring approach, which speaks volumes about their expertise and passion for pet sitting. I wholeheartedly recommend Elisa and Aleks to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet-sitting service. Their exceptional care and dedication have earned my gratitude, and I will definitely be using their services again in the future. Thank you, Elisa and Aleks, for providing such wonderful care for my birds and ensuring their happiness and well-being!

We are absolutely thrilled to have found Olga as our pet sitter! She visited our house once a day to take care of our cat, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provided. Olga went above and beyond, sending us plenty of photos and videos to keep us updated, which was so reassuring. She took excellent care of our cat—feeding, playing, cleaning, and even watering our plants! I am now completely relaxed for future trips because we’ve finally found someone we can trust to take care of everything perfectly. We highly recommend Olga to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!
