Kelly is the best pet sitter I've ever had, and I've had to fire some.  She loves animals and gives them time and love when she comes to feed them.  She also waters the plants and picks up newspapers, mail, etc.

Very satisfied with the service that Kelly provided, she went above and beyond all expectations.  In fact she even took the trash and recycling out, which we had never discussed her doing. 
To prove how magicall Kelly is with animals, she left an Easter photo of Marley, wearing bunny ears.  I cannot fathom how she was able to get Marley to hold still long enough for that.
Also, Marley was not eating, so she took it upon herself to go out and buy can dog food to mix with the dry.  The only bad with that is Marley is still looking for the wet food....  But has come back to eating normally.  It is nice too know that She was concerned enough to make sure Marley ate while we were gone.
It was very apparent that while we were gone, Kelly took great care of Marley and our home.
I know that the next time we plan a trip, we will be calling Kelly first.
Her service has won her a loyal customer.

This is the second time I had Kelly and Sara watch my dogs. They are terrific. Not only do they treat my dogs like their own, they even swept up the dog hair and had to deal with a cranky neighbor. I wouldn't use anyone else. My dogs love them.

"Thank you so much for your nice review, we enjoyed taking care of your babies while you were away. We had a little scare, not knowing that one of your babies knew how to open the garage door and then shut it behind him. We couldn't find them at first, which was scary,but after a thorough search of the house we found them, and they were just fine and happy to see us.Everything worked out just fine and we appreciate your business Respectfully Kelly and Sara"

Kelly was excellent.  I had called several other pet sitters in my area, but she was the only one who returned my call.  
I have two Tibetan Terriers, Obi and Revan, who are both 2 years old.  Obi is very friendly, but Revan is very afraid of people, and men in particular.  He'd never been aggressive, but would growl, run, and hide whenever meeting someone new.
I conveyed my concerns to Kelly, and she immediately suggested coming for two initial visits, the first two weeks ahead of the date my husband and I would be away, and the second the day before when we'd be gone.  The idea was to introduce her to Revan on the first visit, and he'd hopefully remember her on the second visit, and not be too freaked out.
Kelly visited a total of 10 times while my husband and I were away.  Revan did very well, and although he started out scared, by the last visit he didn't run away from her when she went to leash him for a walk.  Kelly was very good with him and Obi, and it was obvious she really cares about animals.  She spent about 45 minutes with my dogs at each visit, and fed them twice a day.  On the last visit, she wrote up a report about how the dogs had been and what she'd done with them each visit.  She also told me that she is willing to give medications or shots at no extra charge, although this was not a service I needed.
We were very happy with Kelly, and will definitely be using her services again in the future.

"Thank you for your nice review, your situation is unique, and I appreciate how thorough you were in the very begining.It takes a special kind of care dealing with an animal that has been through so much and I believe our paths crossed for a reason, and you found the right people to care for your babies. Respectfully Kelly and Sara"

They are amazing, affordable, loving and caring pet sitters.  Who throw in the extra of making sure your house looks lived in:  Turning off lights, taking in mail, etc.
