Testimonials

Kate's Critter Care has been an exceptional company to work with. They are extremely friendly, professional, accommodating, and easy to use. We would highly recommend their service to anyone. We have 4 large dogs that can be quite a handful at times and our sitters have been wonderful with them. We have always come home from our trips to happy, well cared for dogs, and a tidy home.
Thank you for such a wonderful service!

We have used Kate's Critter care a couple of times and are convinced that our two dogs love them--as we have come to! We highly recommend Kate's Critter Care-- and especially suggest using their Premium 24 Hour service where they stay at your home --no trauma for the pooches (our two dogs) and they care for everything! It's the best!!!!

Reliable and excellent communication. You can trust them with your life and furkids. Plus you get nonstop photos of everyone. I’ve used Kate for house visits for multiple pets and dog walking services. Once you’re an established client she’s is very accommodating to last-minute trips for work.

Carolyn S.

I've worked with 3-4 dog walking services over the last 10 yrs. Kate's Critters is hands down the best one. The company is organized, responsive and our personal dog walker is simply amazing. Callie goes above an beyond when taking care of the pups. Also the scheduling and payment is made so easy with Kate's website. I highly recommend Kate's Critters to any pet owner.

Damon K.

Kate's Critter Care offers great service and has taken great care of our 2 cats while we are away! Whether it is a long weekend away, or a two week vacation we can always rely on receiving a daily update. We are always able to book a sitter, even when we wait until the last minute. Although I recommend booking in advance, especially around the holidays to get the sitter of your choice. We have 3 sitters in rotation now and all of them have been wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Kate's Critter Care.

Andrew C.

I have been working with KCC team for over 2 years and they have always and continue to be fantastic. I have used the KCC team for both daily visits and for vacation overnights. During their daily visits, I receive text messages updates. During their vacation visits, I receive photo texts which always make me smile and comforts me that my fur kids are safe and sound. I have been home a few times when a member of the KCC team stops by and my fur kids all run over to say hello! That is evidence enough that my fur kids love the KCC team as much as I love them. They are professional, flexible, and just awesome people. I highly recommend them! Kate and Jenny are awesome!!!
