“Amber was seriously the best sitter. This is the first time I have left my cat with someone other then friends and family, but she went above and beyond in every aspect. She sent lots of pics and even a video of Penelope and which made my anxiety calm down because I knew she was being treated so well. We will definitely be using her again and I can absolutely tell you for a fact Penelope is already missing Amber!”


“We scheduled drop-in in visits while on a business trip. Alexis met for a consultation and then arrived as scheduled. She was wonderful to my senior dog, professional, sending reports and pics, and giving short walks too. I won't hesitate to book again and also recommend Alexis to others. Thank You.”


“Heather was Fantastic as always! Our cats love her and will miss her. We love her communication and all the pictures. We will definitely contact her for our next travel. Thank you Heather! You are amazing!”


“Crystal is a rockstar! Let me start by saying I am extremely picky with my 2 cats! I am worried about my cats everytime I leave town, (I know, ridiculous!) Crystal's easy going manner and beautiful soul allayed my anxious heart almost instantly upon meeting with her before I left town! Crystal was prompt for the daily check ins, cleaned their litter boxes, even vacuumed around the litter boxes, because boy, do those cats track litter!! I have one nervous kitty, but he's so sweet!, who sometimes has accidents around the house and Crystal diligently searched for said accidents and cleaned them right up!! I texted Crystal a couple or 3 times during my vacation (because I'm so whiny about my cats) and her response time was amazing! I just really can't say enough great things about Crystal! She was so patient with me and my crazy cat lady-ness! Completely trustworthy, completely reliable. I very strongly recommended Crystal to anyone considering her services. She is an angel and I will definitely use her again, no doubt! I can't even begin to thank her enough!! Thank you Crystal!! ❤”


About: Hi! I'm Lina, a passionate and reliable pet care provider with 14 years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether it's dogs, cats, or small pets, I treat every animal like family—because that's what they are. I'm trained in basic pet first aid, understand animal behavior, and specialize in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry (or feathered!) companions. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I’m currently not working a traditional 9–5 job. That means I have the flexibility and time to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve—whether that’s midday walks, extended cuddle sessions, or being available for last-minute needs. Your pet won’t just be another stop in a busy day—they’ll be my priority. I respect your home and keep your pets safe by sticking to routines, keeping their space tidy, and staying in communication. I also will make them love me.

“Sidney was INCREDIBLE with my little Luna. She was so responsive every time I texted her with long updates and made so comfortable about leaving her in her trusted hands. Luna can be tricky about taking her medication but Sidney managed to get Luna to take her medication at every visit without fail!! I will definitely be using Sidney again any time I need someone to watch Luna again or need anyone to check up on her during the day!!!”


“Suzanne has taken excellent care of my cat Beau twice now. She provides thorough updates, great photos, loving care, and has reduced my worry and guilt about being away from my cat significantly! Suzanne is the best!”

“Wendy is my go-to cat sitter! For those of us with cats, Wendy is a great find. She is wonderful and truly a cat person, as she has her own and understands cat behaviors and needs. I come home to a happy cat every time, and Wendy has done everything that was asked. She takes such fun pictures every day, too— ones I want to frame! Thanks, Wendy!”


“Lyndsey had her first meeting with Esperanza and Akoni today. She kept me well informed with how it was going and sent pictures of their time together. Overall it seems the girls made a new friend and looking forward to their next visit.”


About: I’ve had my sweet Pomeranian for 4 years now, and she’s full of energy, personality, and love for other dogs! Being a dog mom has taught me how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. Every time I left my dog with a boarder, I couldn’t help but worry if she was getting the same love and attention I would give her. That’s why I started doing this—I want to give other pet parents the peace of mind I always wished for. I’ll treat your dog like family, because that’s what I’d want for mine. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m home by 4 PM on Fridays and love spending time at home on the weekends—perfect for hanging out with furry friends! I’m available for weekend care and weekday evenings. During the week, I can watch dogs as long as they’re comfortable being in a safe, cozy home for about 8 hours while I’m at work. I make sure they get lots of love, playtime, and attention when I’m home! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced backyard—perfect for playtime and safe outdoor breaks! My home is very dog-friendly, and if your pup is potty trained, they’re welcome to roam freely. If they’re more comfortable being crated while I’m away, I’m happy to do that too. I do my best to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and at ease. Whether it’s feeding schedules, crate time, walks, or bedtime habits, I’ll work with you to make sure your dog feels right at home. My goal is always to give your pet the same care, comfort, and love they get from you!
