I now have two cats at home, Sebastian and Jasmine, and they keep me on my toes! Interested in sitting for cats and dogs. I work Monday through Friday 8-4 so I am unavailable mornings. Willing to do drop ins during the week and weekend and walks. No overnights unfortunately. I am very organized, clean, and maintain a proper schedule for my cats, as I would for others’. I do not accept boarding for my own home as my apartment is too small.

Christina G.
“Christina adores her orange tabby kitty. He’s enjoyed living with her for an amazing fifteen and a half years so far. Since he’s geriatric with a few health issues, Christina ensures he gets his daily medicine, keeps him well hydrated and fed, and makes sure he has plenty of toys to play with and cozy spots to relax in. As much as she would like more animals, she knows her cats personality well enough to know he would be happiest in a single pet home. Christina has watched my two cats while I’ve gone on vacations before. Each time, I’ve had no issues. The litter boxes were clean, she fed them as directed (I had very specific instructions since my one cat had kidney disease, was on a prescription diet, and liked his food warmed up with a little water mixed in), and she always sent me pictures and videos since she knew I missed them so much. You can trust your fur babies with her!”

She steps up whenever we need assistance with our dogs. Lastly, Linda interacts with any animal that she meets with friendly enthusiasm.”

Jared M.
“I’ve know Jared for 27 years. He is a caring and thoughtful young man to humans and pets. Everytime he comes to my house, he is the only person I know who gets down on the floor to greet and play with my dog. He is always considerate, willing to help out with walking or watching my dog overnight. I also see how loving he is to his dog Pepper. Pepper is treated like a family member, having celebrated his first year with a dog birthday pool party. Pepper was sent to training/behavior classes and is a well trained loving pet. I highly recommend Jared as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.”
