“Kayla was awesome sauce once again! I requested her to take care of kitty on short notice and she came through. We appreciated her flexibility and the quality care she provided for Mila. I can tell she has got love for her, and that brings peace of mind😻. She also followed all my instructions and that was super helpful when I got home. Thanks for your A+ service Kayla, we will keep in contact… especially for our next vacation👍😎”
“Michael, is fantastic. He was very communicative and even offered to grab packages while we were out of town. He sent photos from all visits and was diligent about cleaning the cat boys box and ensuring that they were fed separately due to dietary requirements. We will absolutely be working with him again A+. Thank you for an awesome experience!”
“Thank you for taking such excellent care of our cats! They seemed happy and well-fed and their litter boxes and the house looked great. We appreciated the pictures you sent. We'd love to use you again in the future.”
About: I have lived with cats since I was 14 years old and have looked after cats and dogs independently since I was 16. I am comfortable with administering medications from my time working at Grand Avenue Veterinary Clinic. I work about 12 hours a week spread over two days at a museum and attend graduate school online. This makes me very flexible to meet your pets needs! As I will be in your and your pets home, making sure everyone is comfortable with me in the space! My goal is to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away! If you have any specific concerns about going on walks or interacting with other humans and pets please let me know so I can abide by what works best for your family. I have been trained on how to pill animals who are nervous about medication to ensure that your pet recieves their medication and remains safe and supported in the process. If you should ask me to take care of your home I make sure to grab the mail daily and follow the motto of leave it better than you found it! I want to have you to come home to a clean house.
“Gabriela did a fantastic job with our senior cat while we were away. Our cat is very sensitive and we were worried about leaving him but returned home to find him well cared for and very content. Gabriela kept us feeling at ease with daily updates and was easy to communicate with from the start. We had an excellent experience with Gabriela and absolutely recommend her!”
“We have two cats with one of which who has a medicine she gets every 12 hours, so we needed someone to come at the beginning and end of the day while we were away. It was our first time getting a rover and are so glad we had Jennifer to come check in on our two cats twice a day. I appreciated so much getting a picture every visit and knew they were in good hands and taken care of!!”
“Travis was great! Our cats were well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while we were away. Though one of our cats is shy and didn’t come out when he was here, the other one loved the daily playtime, and we loved the daily check-ins, reports and pictures. Thank you Travis!”
“Denise did a great job, with our cat. She kept the food and water dishes full, cleaned litter box everyday. Also gave our cat some needed attention. I would highly recommended Denise for care of pets. Very reliable.”
“Would highly recommend Carissa. Very sweet and great with our dogs. Our dogs have never been left with anyone besides family. She stayed in contact with me the entire time we were gone. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing our dogs were in caring hands.”

About: I love dogs no matter the size or personality! I have walked dogs of all different breeds, I am currently fostering a dog in college trying to find him a forever home! If your dog needs to go for more of a run then walk that is no problem I love going on runs with them. If you choose me to walk your dog they will get the energy out and be ready and cuddly for when you get home! This summer I will be available on Thursdays and Fridays for what ever your pet needs, whether its drop in visits or a good walk to stretch their legs or get some energy. I also have a cat that I love dearly and would be more than happy to stop in and take care of what ever your cat needs. I have a good sized yard that isn't completely fenced in but a stake in the ground would do the trick. There aren't that many other dogs in my neighborhood which would be a perk if your pet didn't care for other animals.
