We are beyond happy that he was able to provide care for our furry babies. It was last minute and he made it happen for us. We will definitely be considering him for future services!

Emily was exactly what my kitty (and I!) needed. She was communicative, reliable, and sent lots of pictures. She did everything I asked her to do and went above and beyond in her write-up of the visit, which I really value. Hire Emily!

Natasha is Awesome! She formed a wonderful bond with my Colby and did meditation with him! She provided videos and frequent updates which I so appreciate. Most of all my boy looked so relaxed and zen. I highly recommend and I will surely be using her services again.

Miranda was a fantastic sitter for my 8 month year old cat! Miranda was extremely communicative in preparation & during her visits. She is professional, knowledgeable, and has deep care for pet sitting. She made, what’s often considered a stressful process, a seamless one. Highly recommended & looking forward to rebooking with her sometime soon!

Gil is a great pet caregiving. She always makes sure pets feel safe and are able to care for them when others aren’t able to. For example, I got a cat named Syd and she had worms when I first got her. When Gil started to care for my cat she was able to get Syd the worm medication when needed. Gil is a great sitter and I trust her to look after my cat. She seems fond of her.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter ready to treat your pets like family. I have lifelong experience with cats, both my own and watching others. I worked for a petsitting company while I was completing my undergrad. Now, I’m working on my Master’s degree and work as a paraprofessional part time. I only book one or two clients at a time, so you can be certain your pet will get my undivided attention. I look forward to meeting with you and your pets! At this time, I am able to offer drop in pet sitting for cats and dogs. I am open to small pets, such as hamsters, chinchillas, rabbits, etc. If your pet has any behavioral issues (resource guarding, anxiety, aggression towards other dogs, etc.) please inform me before booking for a smooth experience for both me, you, and your pet.
