“Nicole was great with communicating with us during her visits when questions arose. She was kind, compassionate and patient with our elderly cat.”
4. Jonathan P.
“I always feel bad leaving our cat by herself when we go out of town. No longer! Jonathan is our kitty's new favorite person. He was so sweet to her and sent such thorough and thoughtful updates (and great pictures) while we were away. We are so grateful Jonathan was able to check in on her and will be booking future visits with him.”
5. Kara C.
“Kara had clearly worked with dogs before, and wasn't phased by the hyper, energetic ball of fur that is our dog. It was nice to know we'd be leaving him with someone who knew how to handle his energy while continuing with the commands, training, etc. we'd been working with him on.”

About: Cat person for life. I currently have four, as well as an Australian shepherd. I used to travel a lot for work, so I understand how stressful it can be making sure the four legged babies have everything they need when away. I’m here to help any way I can, whether it’s giving a medication or helping with the potty stuff! I recently left a demanding corporate job and currently am very flexible, morning, evening, during the week or on the weekend works great for me! I would care for the pet as instructed by the owner. I understand all animals have their own personality and preferences and their owners know best. I also want the owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet is in good hands while they cannot be home!

9. keira L.
“Keira has been an incredible help when it comes to caring for my cat in my absence. Her nurturing and loving demeanor towards my kitty has been heartwarming. Even when I'm away, I have peace of mind knowing that Keira is there to provide not just the basics but genuine love and attention to my cat. She goes above and beyond to ensure my cat feels safe, happy, and loved. Keira's dedication and compassion make her an outstanding caregiver, and I'm grateful to have her as a roommate and a friend”

16. shannon m.
“My dog Ackee loves her adventures with Shannon! Shannon has looked after Ackee in Santa Barbara, LA and Jackson Hole, WY. Ackee is high-energy and Shannon takes her for long hikes and to parks where Ackee can play with friends. Even while it was winter in Wyoming, Shannon always made sure Ackee got plenty of activity. Shannon gives Ackee constant love and is always looking out for her safety. Ackee notoriously tries to eat random food and items she finds on the ground and Shannon is extra attentive to make sure Ackee doesn't ingest anything she isn't supposed to. Shannon is a trustworthy and loving dog walker and is always prompt with pick ups and drop offs.”
17. Michelle M.
“Michelle does an amazing job with my pup! She is very patient, kind, and overall great with him. Her schedule is flexible and she is very responsible. I feel more than comfortable allowing her into my home without me there. I would recommend her to anyone! Plus, my pup loves her!!”

Please feel free to reach out with any questions - I’d love the opportunity to watch your pet! I work from home full time Monday - Friday so your pet won’t be home alone much.
