Wonderful!!! Rie is so good with my 2 dogs! She's so reliable! When I had a family emergency, Rie stepped right in to care for my dogs. She's so friendly and professional. I feel very lucky to have her work with us. My dogs love her!!

Rie, of Criiter’s Choice saved our cat’s life! We were ready to go to a family wedding and our kitty got very ill. The vet could care for her, but we wanted her home. Critter’s Choice brought her home and made her as comfortable as possible. Our dear cat survived and we are forever indebted to Rie of Critter’s Choice.

We have used Rie for the past several years. She loves animals. She is professional, cleans up, spend time with our animals. She cares about the animals she provides for. She stays in contact via text and sends us pictures of our animals. She writes yellow notes each time she visits, which you can read upon getting back home. She is on time, spends the time you pay her with the animas!. Very reliable! The best petsitter we had so far!

We’ve used Rie many times to care for our cats when we’re out of town. She texts updates with pictures and she always leaves her daily handwritten notes for us to read when we get home. She’s the only person outside our family that our cat Sylvia will have anything to do with. That says a lot. Rie also picks up our mail. It’s such a comfort to know that someone is in our home daily, taking care of our pets and making sure everything is okay. She’s so professional and caring. We couldn’t be happier that we found her!

Mt cats were well taken care of. I had daily texts and pictures of my cats sent to me. My cat needed medication which she gave to her. Rie does a wonderful job, is trustworthy and professional. This is my first tome using a pet sitter and have been very pleased. She also watered my plants, and would have picked up the mail.

Rie was truly a cat whisperer! Our kitty would only hide whenever anyone entered the house...after 1 week with Rie, she came out and met each person who came over. We received excellent reports daily while on our trip from Rie, and received fun and touching pictures frequently.

She was so amazing with Bella, I loved the little notes and pictures I received, daily . I know Bella was in good hands, and I know Bella loved her so much. It was very important to me , to have someone who cared and loved Bella as much as I did.

Rie is so professional and loving to our black lab, Sophie. I love knowing that my dog is in such caring hands while we are away. Rie visits Sophie twice a day when we are out of town (feeds her, plays with her), takes her on two daily walks. Rie texts pictures of our dog while we are gone, which I love! She writes up daily reports that we are able to go over once we get home. She is very accommodating, I have contacted her pretty last minute and she was able to be extremely flexible. Rie emails in advance when she will be out of town as a heads up in case we may have needed her. Along with knowing our dog is well taken care of, our house is looked after too. She has watered our lawn, takes in garbage cans, checks mail, waters plants; it's so nice to have that peace of mind as well. And on top of it all she is just an overall friendly, kind person! I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing their pet looked after while out of town.

Very professional yet engaging- my 3 cats love her! We have senior cats that require special meds, special food, separate feedings, etc. Rie handled all the special needs and played with everyone! The kitties get so excited to see her! We feel very good about having her taking care of our fur babies when we are away...

Rie was great. She communicated with me about my kitties while I was away and sent photos, so I could see how the boys were doing.

Rie is wonderful. She is reliable, punctual and has great integrity. Rie has been walking my two dogs twice a week for a year. They just love her. She is affectionate and loving to the pups and my kitty. I couldn't be happier with her work. You'll be lucky to have her serve your family.

Service from Critter's Choice is exceptional. Rie is well organized, thorough and reliable. She formed a bond with Holly immediately. She takes care of all routine care, gives medication, brushes and plays with our cat. We receive a text message with a picture after each visiting reporting how Holly is doing. In addition, detailed daily handwritten notes are completed and left for us on our return. Any concerns are reported immediately. We are provided a form before we leave so we can outline care instructions, emergency contacts etc. A new form is completed before each new sitting service so that information is always up to date. Rie asks that you notify her when you return home and follows up if she doesn't hear from you. When Holly experienced some health issues, Rie checked in with us to see how she was doing. In addition, she waters our plants and picks up our mail and newspaper. Our time away is more enjoyable because we know our cat and our house are in good hands. We would highly recommend Critter's Choice to anyone looking for caring, high quality pet sitting.

We use Rie every time we leave town. She is hands down the BEST pet sitter we have ever had. She cared for our two cats and when one was sick with cancer and needed daily injections, she was able to give them while we were out of town which gave us peace of mind. We would highly recommend Rie to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter. She has gone above and beyond with accommodating our schedules, she leaves notes everyday of our cats behavior and sends a lovely text with our cats picture for each day she visits! She plays with our kitty and gives a full 30 min visit for $20/day. We even received handmade stocking for our kitties for Christmas. I could go on, but I can only praise her with more accolades. She also watches our neighbors dog on a regular basis now. She's the best.

We can't say enough positive things about Rie. We have two Ridgebacks that can temperamental. One who still thinks he's a puppy and the other who has medical issues and will refuse to go outside in the rain. Rie has shown nothing but patience and kindness to our "kids". We love the notes she leaves to let us know how the potty break went, and the picture/texts that brighten the day.

Critter's Choice is a wonderful pet sitting service. Rie is so good with our cats, and we always come home to find them happy and well-cared for. She texts us every day she visits them with pictures and updates, which is always so reassuring. Our cats love her and so do we!

Rie has cared for our 2 cats many times over the past year. We highly recommend her. We leave town with peace of mind, knowing she's checking on our house and providing lots of affection and attention to our cats. One of our kitties loves being patted and brushed and the other (younger) cat needs lots of play-- Rie offers each of them what they need. She's reliable and communicates regularly via photo texts while we're away and leaves daily written notes too.

Rie is a consummate professional! She never missed a date; send a text with a picture letting us know how the visit was going and truly loves our pups. I am completely impressed with her, and am happy to recommend her.

Critter's Choice provides amazing pet sitting! Their primary pet sitter and company owner, Rie, is very detail oriented, knowledgeable, reliable and loves pets! We have a special needs kitty who requires multiple types of medication and she has handled it all with ease. She is easy going and extremely helpful on a routine basis and in an emergency (she's even helped get our kitty to the vet when work obligations prevented us from transporting both ways). It's also clear from the photos she sends while we're away that our cats feel comfortable and appreciate the care they receive (we also have a shy kitty who doesn't trust just anyone). The pet sitting fees charged are comparable to other reputable pet sitting services and the care and reliability is EXCEPTIONAL. I highly recommend this pet sitting company above all others (and we've hired 4+ sitters over the years of living in different areas) and I volunteer in animal welfare/rescue. Included are two photos that Rie took during our most recent 10-day vacation. Critter's Choice and Rie will give you great peace of mind that your pets are well cared for when you're not able to be home with them.
