About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, and I care for every pet like they're my own. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies to gentle seniors—and I’m comfortable with administering medication, managing special diets, and recognizing the subtle signs when something’s off. I bring a calm, grounded presence that helps animals feel safe and at ease. What sets me apart is my intuitive approach to animal care and my consistency. Whether it’s sticking to your pet’s routine, offering lots of affection, or giving them space when they need it, I take the time to understand what each pet needs to feel secure and happy. I also stay communicative, so you’ll always know your pet is in good hands. Pet care is always a top priority in my routine. I ensure that I have dedicated time for each pet, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or administering medication. I make sure to follow each pet’s schedule closely, respecting their individual needs and preferences. Volunteering with a kitten rescue has helped me develop a flexible routine, balancing the needs of various pets—from active kittens to more laid-back seniors. My goal is to provide consistent care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s daily rhythm, and I’m always available to accommodate any special requests. When caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and respect for your environment. I take extra care to ensure your home remains just as you left it, respecting your space and belongings. I follow your pet's routine precisely, whether it involves feeding, medication, or playtime, and always provide a calm, secure environment for them. I’m mindful of any special instructions you have, including maintaining specific areas of the home for your pet’s comfort or adhering to any boundaries you set. My experience volunteering with a kitten rescue has taught me to be patient and adaptable to each pet's needs, ensuring they feel safe and at ease. I also maintain open communication, offering regular updates to build your trust and keep you informed while you’re away.
“Thank you for all your support while I was away. Your care for Lola went above and beyond my expectations and it gave me enormous peace of mind knowing she was in good hands :)”
“Geraldine took great care of our two senior cats over the holidays. Would definitely recommend if your looking for a sitter.”
About: I've grown up around animals as long as I can remember, and since moving out for college I am missing having animals around. I am comfortable with all dog breeds from small to large, young and senior, and am also able to take care of cats, rodents, and reptiles. Most of my life I had a mastiff so I am comfortable with larger breeds and now have a bulldog and jack russell terrier back home. I can provide reliable loving care, when you can't be there I am a student athlete at a local college. Be that as it may, I can always make time for cuddles, playtime, and potty breaks within my schedule. I currently live in the dorms where your pet will have space to relax as well as a beautiful campus for long walks and large grassy areas for them to play.

My labradoodle and my cats love her, and she's also great with higher-energy breeds like heelers. I am glad to have someone I trust able to care for my animals when I am away. It's important to me that anyone I leave with my animals is considerate of their personalities and needs. Lauren is super intuitive and reads their body language to give them the individual care they need, whether that’s exercise, attention, or space. I’ve always felt totally confident leaving my pets in her care. She treats them with the same attention and respect she would her own.”

Morgan took exceptional care of my two cats! She’s reliable, responsive, and very kind. I felt totally at peace being away from my babies, I’ve actually already booked Morgan again! She’s fantastic, and I’m so glad to have found her.
Patrick is the absolute best — he goes above and beyond with communication, photo/videos, and handles the extraneous items of pet care like sweeping litter or cleaning the occasional hairball. :-) Our cat, King, absolutely adores Patrick and remembered him right away. Thank you Patrick for all you do! Booking with you brings us great peace knowing our pet is in good hands while we are out of town.
Qinyun was wonderful—pleasant, attentive, and very respectful of both my cat and my home. She checked in on Maxine for two weeks, wrote thoughtful Rover cards, and interacted so well with her. I’m truly grateful for her care and will definitely book again and recommend her to others!

Kylie is extremely professional, timely, and communicative. She went the extra mile for my pet and gave me clear updates and pictures. Highly recommend her!
Anastassi was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Bishu, while we were away. She did drop-in visits and kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really helped us feel at ease. She even made time to meet us beforehand, and it was clear right away that she’s both sweet and trustworthy. It’s always a little nerve-racking giving someone access to your home, but Anastassi made us completely comfortable and took great care of Bishu. He even looked excited to see her and played with her during visits.! We’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
Paula cared for our kitty like she was her own. She has a special way with cats as our normally somewhat shy kitty let her pet and hold her. Our home was also in perfect shape when we returned from our trip and we appreciated this too. We highly recommend Paula and thank her again for everything.
Valentina is awesome! She is incredibly reliable and great to my cat while I am out of town (which is way too frequently)!
Samantha always does an amazing job taking care of our two cats and attending to any special requests! She’s awesome!
Our kitty was in a great mood despite spending a week alone thanks to Tiffany's wonderful care and attention. She's always super responsive, professional, and friendly. I highly recommend Tiffany as a sitter!
Bethany was very reliable and took great care of our cats. She was very easy to communicate with, and quick to respond.
Emma was absolutely amazing. She was reachable, reliable, organized, kind, caring, went above and beyond. Our kitties loved her, and we did not worry about them at all while they were under Emma’s care. I could go on and on!
Another great job from Heidi. The cats were happy and relaxed when we got home, and she is very easy to communicate with.
Tillana always goes above and beyond when caring for my cats. When she is caring for my cats, I always know they will be loved and well taken care of. I especially love how she sends lots of pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her
Michaela was great with our dog Grizzly, who can be a handful at times. She was very patient with him, even when he was nervous because we were away. Very responsive and communication was easy!
Rebecca was great with our two cats! One of them takes a while to come around to new people, but Rebecca gave her the space and encouragement to come out during visits and she eventually did!
If my cat could talk, she would give Mariia a standing ovation! Everything was done just right - polite, reliable, and my kitty was thrilled. Thank you for making my trip stress-free!
My cat had a great time warming up to Kathryn. I booked on pretty short notice and it was super easy to communicate what my cat needed!
