Lisa Packard

Lisa was very good with & attentive toward my pets. She arrived exactly at the times I asked her to show. She spent time with my pets. She updated me with photos. And her charge was very reasonable. I will definitely use her again!

I recently moved to Longmont and was in need of a new cat sitter. I found Lisa through Thumbtack and couldn’t be happier with her service! My cat Lucy totally loved her and even let Lisa groom her (which is amazing as my kitty is very shy). Lisa sent updates each day along with pics, which put my mind at ease as I was gone for 9 days. I would highly recommend Lisa for your pet sitting needs!

We needed someone to feed the cat while we were out on holiday. Found Lisa just a few days before the trip and she was able to come over and meet us on that short notice. Cat was fed, and Lisa provided regular updates to set our minds at ease.

She did a great job. Gave daily updates with pictures, and she follows CDC recommendations. I would hire her again

Wow! How did we ever find such a spectacular lady?! Actually, our journey to finding Lisa was a little unusual. We knew we would be traveling and really wanted someone to come check on our sweet cat, Newton. I normally work from home so he is used to having someone around all the time. I wasn’t willing to leave for so long without knowing he had a friend to care for him. We asked around a lot, but nobody had a sitter they would actually recommend - yikes! I started looking on google, but all the bigger companies seemed to really only care about dogs. Finally I downloaded Thumbtack, entered my location and my needs and was matched with quite a few well reviewed sitters. When I actually reached out to them though, none of them were willing to come to Boulder. This was confusing to me since I had entered my location but I was SO happy when we got in touch with Lisa. I told her my issue she assured me she lived and worked in Boulder so coming to visit Newton was no problem. She was so accommodating with our busy schedules. After talking with her about history and background (which I recommend because she is such a sweet and funny lady!) I knew she was a perfect match. Then Newton came downstairs and warmed up to her IMMEDIATELY! I have never seen anything like it for a cat who is so easily spooked! Lisa actually volunteered to take care of our mail and plants too - we didn’t have to ask! Right before we left we received a noticed from the community stating that all cars had to be moved for 2 days while the surface streets were repaved! I didn’t hesitate for a second to reach out to Lisa. She said “no problem - just leave the keys and let me know where the car is parked and I would be happy to move it for you.” These might all seem like little things, but we really felt like Lisa was not only our pet sitter coming to feed the cat. We felt like she was taking care of our whole family! We got pictures and updates on Lisa & Newton’s visit daily via email. She took the time to get to know him and went out on the patio with him (he is not allowed out unsupervised). Lisa even sent us a sweet “welcome home” text when she knew we would be back in the country and left a lovely note on our kitchen table for us. I can’t tell you how fortunate we are to have found Lisa. I am not usually able to let go when someone says “don’t worry”, but with Lisa I really felt like I had nothing to worry about. We feel very lucky to have someone that feels like a family friend in Boulder.
