What my clients say
“Carys exceeded my expectations from the start, with her well-organized intake and bonus service offerings. She was even prepared to bring her own toys when we couldn’t find ours. My cat has separation anxiety and often has “accidents” while we’re away. Carys’ warm and playful energy seemed to put him at ease. We returned to a peaceful (instead of a pee-ful!) house!” - Effie.
I was lucky to have Carys for cat care visits while I was out of town. She was great from start to finish! She was proactive in making sure we covered everything at the initial visit. She brushed my cat and played with her, brought in the mail, cleaned the litter box, and all communications were clear and timely. - Carla
Carys took care of our two cats, Joey and Dex, for 10 days over the Christmas holiday. Her service was excellent! We came home to happy, healthy cats! The litter boxes were in pristine condition, as were the surrounding areas which were devoid of runoff litter.
Dex was played with and loved (she’s a feisty kitten), and Joey was pet when he allowed it (he’s a shy boy). All their needs were met and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Carys as a pet sitter. 12/10, will hire again!” - Davi.
Carys was wonderful! I really appreciate how present and sweet she was with Momo. I felt totally confident leaving my kitty in her care.” - Melissa.
“Carys was great with my dog Nina! I could tell from the first meet-and-greet that she was attentive and caring with animals. I highly recommend Carys to anyone needing pet sitting and will definitely use her again.” - Christian
Our cat Stella experienced withdrawal after being under Carys' care for five days! Besides twice a day energetic playtimes, Carys was diligent in feeding and litter box tending. She would bestow lots of love on your loved pet." - Jadyne
“Carys is a wonderful dog walker who is very caring, bright, and loving! Our dog Draper always comes back with a big smile on his face after spending time with Carys :)” - Melanie and Cameron
I've taken care of a variety of animals before including a budgie, cats, a bearded dragon, and a fat tailed gecko.
