We absolutely love Carlos! He stepped in with a short notice. Took really good care of shadow. Took him on multiple walks, fed him well and shared updates diligently. We are definitely going to be his repeated clients. Thank you

Andrea is a gem. She is communicative, respectful, and left our home in excellent condition. My cats are everything to me and she took wonderful care of them while I was out of town for my birthday. She also left me a sweet card and note with an update. Will definitely book with her again.

Niva is truly exceptional — we cannot recommend her enough! She took care of our 2.5-year-old cat for an entire month, and from the very beginning, she was absolutely wonderful. Despite accepting our request on short notice, she showed up with full commitment, not only caring for our cat with incredible attention and love but also looking after our home as if it were her own. Niva is an excellent communicator — proactive, thoughtful, and consistently keeping us updated with daily photos and messages that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she took the time to deeply understand our cat’s personality and needs, asking insightful questions and going above and beyond to ensure comfort and happiness. Our cat adored her instantly, and honestly, we’re convinced Niva is a bit of a cat whisperer! We even learned a lot from her during this experience. When we unexpectedly had to extend our trip by a week, Niva was incredibly understanding and accommodating. She even went out of her way to help us explore backup options, which meant so much to us during a stressful moment. On top of everything, she handled deliveries, collected mail, looked after our plants, and left our home in a pristine condition. Niva was truly a godsend. Both we and our cat absolutely love her, and we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to work with her again. We hope to have her back soon!

Alexis will always be my go-to cat sitter. She took amazing care of my Persian cat while we were away for 10 days. She followed all instructions carefully and kept me updated regularly with messages and photos. Milo absolutely loved spending time with her. She gave him plenty of cuddles and playtime. She also taught him a trick!! I had complete peace of mind the entire time I was away. I truly appreciate everything Alexis did for my cat.

My girls warmed up to her nicely and even snuggled with her which made me so happy to see how comfortable they were with her. I would definitely recommend Sarah and cannot thank her enough :)

Mary was amazing! She dog sat at our home with our 35 lb frenchy-pit mix. She was with her for 4 days. She sent multiple pictures a day and helped a nervous fur-mama feel very comforted. She left the house immaculate! I feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you, Mary!!

Diana was absolutely amazing with our little cat. We were abroad for 3 weeks and she was booked in for a home stay to live in with our cat. She treated our cat as her own and looked after her so well, and gave us lots of updates on her, which gave us so much peace of mind. Diana also treated our home so respectfully and it was so clean and well kept to return to. Our cat definitely loved her company too and got comfortable with her really quickly. I believe we have found our forever pet sitter for any future trips away too. Thank you so much for the perfect 3 weeks for our cat.

Best of the best! When we came back both cats told us that they don't actually want to see us and asked to bring the lady back! Both Linus and Sophie loved Kathy and it seems to me it was a resort for them: they were brushed, fed, could request water from the faucet whenever they want, and many other nice things. Ask Linus who he wants to stay with for a while: his mama with no dad or Kathy. I guarantee he will choose Kathy!

About: I have a huge heart for animals. I have had pets all of my life and consider them to be part of my family. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages and know the commitment and responsibilities that come with caring for pets. Taking care of them is truly a passion for me. Pet care fits perfectly in my schedule. I am an upcoming college freshman who has a flexible schedule. If you and your family are away from home, I’m always free to check up on your furry companions! I will provide the attention your pet needs and follow any specific instructions you have for me. It is important to me that your pet is comfortable and feels safe at all times. Long walks around the neighborhood and giving them lots of love and attention are things I will do to make your pet feel happy and safe.

About: I’ve learned that the secret to a happy pup is listening to what they are trying to tell us. That’s why I adapt my sitting style to your dog's mood and personality. Dogs experience the world through their noses. If you're dog is an explorer; I am happy to accommodate their need for a slower, sniff-heavy walk. If your dog struggles with anxiety and is hesitant to even step outside the door, don't worry. I encourage them gently and treat them with the same love and respect that you do! I am available any weekend and look forward to spend spending time with your pets. Please reach out to me for availability, I’m really flexible. I set reminders for important tasks so that I can keep your pet on their schedule. I monitor any changes in their behavior, so that I know when something is wrong.

Danielle did an absolutely incredible job taking care of my dog! I had her come and housesit for me since my dog definitely prefers to stay in her own space. Danielle's experience taking care of her own pets translated so well to taking care of my little one. She was able to follow very specific feeding instructions due to mine being such a picky eater. And Danielle was so communicative the entire time and was always sending me pictures and videos to let me know that my little one was doing great! I absolutely will be booking with Danielle again when I need to travel!

We recently used Leilani to take care of our puppy Leo from 5am to 8pm while we hiked Vernal Falls in Yosemite, and she did a great job. She arrived on time, took good care of Leo in our home, and kept him comfortable throughout the day. She also took him on two walks, which we really appreciated. Leo seemed happy and well cared for when we got back. We would definitely consider using her again in the future.

I truly can’t adequately describe how wonderful Cali is! She took excellent care of our dog Kuiper and he had the most wonderful time with her! Cali sent pictures and updates every day and was a great communicator throughout the booking and pet sitting process. She also took great care of our home as well and everything was spotless when we returned. There are not many people I would trust to take care of my best friend but Cali is definitely one of them. I highly recommend her!

I loved getting regular updates, and it was obvious Winnie felt comfortable and well cared for the entire time. It made being away so much easier, and I felt totally at ease throughout. She left my home spotless. I would 100% book with her again and highly, highly recommend!

Brooke did an amazing job taking care of our home and two fur babies while we were gone for nine days!! She was very loving and attentive to Rosa & Blitz. Rosa is having some difficulty after her dental surgery and she was there for her to help however she could and communicated everything. Appreciated the pics and videos. She took great care of our home as well and left everything super clean and in order. It was so nice to have peace of mind that our pups were in such great hands while we were away!

Courtney took such great care of our quirky and needy furbaby, Sookie! From the start she was communicative, professional, and very kind. She sent plenty of photos and updates so we always knew Sookie was happy and well cared for. She followed Sookie’s routine exactly as we asked and was very attentive to her personality and needs. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing Sookie was in such good hands. Courtney was also extremely respectful of our home and even left the apartment cleaner than when we left. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter. Thank you again, Courtney!

Amber was a great in-house companion for our small dog. We booked Amber at relatively short notice, but she was super communicative and got along great with our pet. She stayed in our house over the course of 4.5 days, and was able to spend time with the dog for much of that time. When we came home, the house was in perfect shape, and the dog looked super happy and healthy. We are looking forward to booking her for more stays in the future.
