We hired Janelle to look after our two precious cats from 7th to 9th March 2024. She took the best care of our cats, precisely following our directions and recommendations. She proved to be very trustworthy and reliable, which put my partner and myself at ease during our absence. Communication with Janelle was fluid, with an update accompanied by photos or videos of our two cats being sent over to us after each visit. It was evident from the videos and photos she sent us that our two cats were exceptionally comfortable in her presence. One of our cats is very fearful by nature and had never felt as comfortable around a pet sitter as she felt around Janelle, approaching her, playing with her and smelling her fingers. I very happily recommend Janelle to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and would definitely contact her again with future pet sitting opportunities.

Mollie is a great pet sitter! Having utilized her services on multiple occasions, I can confidently say that she is a reliable, caring, and skilled pet sitter with a genuine passion for animals. Mollie was always punctual, communicative, and responsive. She kept us updated with regular messages, photos and videos, which greatly eased our minds while we were away. In conclusion, Mollie is an exceptional pet sitter who offers peace of mind and the highest level of care. Any pet owner would be fortunate to have her look after their beloved animals. Mars and I were very happy to find you, Mollie🤍
