Elaine was a great pet sitter. Cared for our cats and fish while we were away. Even helped with some extra care that one of our cats required. We would use her again.

Unavailable experience with Applepaws! Elaine was so amazing with our pets and went above and beyond for us. I am a huge worrier and I could 100% relax knowing everything was in amazing hands back home. If I could rate her a 10 out of 5 I would!

I highly recommend Elaine as a pet sitter! I was away for 36 days, and she took wonderful care of my cats. She was always on time, communicated and responded regularly, and followed all of my instructions carefully. My cats absolutely loved her!

Elaine was very clean, always cleaned up before leaving, and I found her to be honest, responsible, and trustworthy. I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in her care while I was away. I would definitely use her help again!

ApplePaws was an amazing experience. I have two dogs, one senior, one puppy and a level of care, attention to detail, and daily follow up was truly exceptional. I felt completely at ease, knowing that they were in such good hands. I highly recommend ApplePaws if you’re looking for someone who generally cares about your furry babies.

Elaine has been walking my dog Cooper (a 120 pound Bernese Mt Dog ) for two weeks. She has been great at communicating with me every time she has walked Cooper. He can be a handful because of his size ...but she has no issues. She also has been feeding him for me and most importantly giving him lots of love and attention . I feel very grateful to have her helping out with my big man!
