“Jillian is an excellent pet-sitter. While watching my cat she sent photos and updates each day and was thoughtful and communicative about things like litter box habits and opening and closing windows based on the weather. Would definitely book her again.”


“Sebastian was absolutely fantastic, and we plan to book him again. We’ve had many cat sitters, but he was the only one who actually played with our kitties and spent extra time with them. Sebastian was very communicative and went the extra mile. Highly recommend!”


“Colin is great watching my kitties EOS and Ethos. He’s watched them 3 times so far and I would use him again. I do not worry when I leave my kitties alone when I go away. I highly recommend him!”


“This was our first time using Rover and Sabah made it a great experience for us and both of our cats! Our shy kitty even came out on day one of her coming over, which rarely happens with new people. Sabah sent pictures and videos daily and our kitties were well taken care of and happy. Thank you, Sabah!”


“It was my first time using a catsitting app, so I was not quite sure about the process. Brandon was super fast and helpful at responding to my queries and treated my cat very kindly. Will definitely contact for future bookings :)”

She’s very responsive and cares for the comfort of my dogs. She also followed directions on giving my dog his daily pill. Very capable, very responsible, I will book her again if she’s available.”


“Our first meeting with Joy really set us at ease. She was genuinely interested in getting to know our boys their personalities, habits, and ways of play. Little did we know that we'd receive wonderful portraits of our cats showing a degree of connection and comfort with them unlike we have seen before. I'd definitely book her again as I get the feeling that the boys really liked her and miss her. Thank you so so so much.”


“Asael was a wonderful cat sitter who was super communicative and went out of their way to make sure Eva was comfortable and well taken care of during a long trip.”

She sent regular updates of her drop-in visits with lots of photos. I’ll definitely be contacting her again when I need a sitter in the future!”


“Amanda was wonderful! She took absolutely fantastic care of our cat and he warmed up to her so quickly! Amanda was really easy to communicate with and followed all of our care instructions to a T! We won't hesitate to book with her again :)”

About: I’ve grew up with a dog by my side since I was a child: first, Bernese mountain dog then 2 Maltese (one was bought and other adopted from shelter). I love dogs and am very patient and understanding with them. Have experience with aggressive sheltered dogs (my last one was from a shelter and didn’t trust people, bit them). Know how to train them and can teach some fun tricks. Happy to give them space to relax, but when walking or playing I am fully present. Can identify serious situations and able to take them to emergency vet or give first aid (chocking, anxiety, injuries, etc). I work from home 2x per week and free on weekends. Additionally, I enjoy walking around the neighbourhood as part of my “fitness” routine, so happy to have someone tag along to make it more fun I don’t have any pets in my household, so your pet will be able to relax. I usually let my dogs completely free around the space, but can also accommodate crate pets. Happy to send photo updates of what we’re doing throughout the day

Christina was able to watch our cat in a pinch. Super responsive and friendly. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Joy has been a great sitter for our cat Theo! She always follows anything we ask her to do to care for him and sends pictures and updates durning her drop in. Highly recommend!

Tiffany and Jong are absolutely fantastic dog walkers who have exceeded all our expectations. They are reliable, caring, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs that shows in everything they do. My dog Dash is always excited to see them and comes home happy and well-exercised after every walk. I couldn’t recommend them more highly to anyone looking for trustworthy and professional pet care.

Vron is the best! She sent great pics and updates. When I returned from vacation, my cats were calm and happy.

Donna took such great care of my cat while I was away. She was super responsive and sent so many photos! Definitely will be rebooking with her in the future!

Mia was a wonderful cat caretaker! She was professional, arrived on-time, sent timely and thorough updates (w/ lots of photos) and made sure to play with our cats during every visit! We came back to a clean litter box, food area, and two happy kitties. Would absolutely ask Mia to sit again next time.

Sebastian did a great job! My cats loved him and he followed all my instructions perfectly. He’s very communicative and flexible.

It was great working with Hayoung. She was communicative, on time and most importantly wonderful with my elderly cat, Kiki. She kept Kiki's litter box nice and tidy, combed and played with her when she visited and I loved getting photos of her daily. I'm so glad I found a dependable cat sitter in my neighborhood! I will definitely use her again.

Juana is great! I needed someone to check in on my dog last min again and she was very accommodating. She followed all the instructions I left her and I will definitely use her again!

Rebekah was wonderful! She took care to make sure the cats felt comfortable and followed up on small concerns such as a bit of throw up. Definitely would recommend.

Angelina was super responsive and totally was so helpful for a last minute booking. Sent pictures and seems like the kitties love her. Will definitely book again!
