Ally was very responsive from the moment we posted the job and gave us updates on our cats during our trip. Our cats took an immediate liking to her and were well loved while we were gone. Would definitely use Ally’s services again!

Anastasia knew how clingy my cats are and gave them extra love. There were several special instructions and she handled everything with care. Will definitely be calling her again ❤️

Elyse is always our go-to cat sitter slash whisperer! Our cat is a bit needy, and Elyse is so fantastic with her! Her reports and photos are something that we look forward to receiving while away — thank you again!

Angel was such a patient, kind, and caring sitter! We just recently moved to the area and our cat is still getting used to our new apartment. Even though she has been a bit shy, Angel spent time just sitting near her and making sure she felt safe and was cared for while we were away. He sent us frequent updates so we weren't worried and was a great communicator. We will definitely book with Angel again in the future!

First time using a sitter for my dog Roxi. Having Dawn help me with her care allowed me to enjoy a wonderful night with my family. I’ll be using her again when the need arises! She’s great ??. Thank you Dawn

Valerie did a great job for us while we were out of town for five days. Our dog, cat, fish, and house were well taken care of. We enjoyed being notified via the app when Valerie started and ended her visits. Her added photos and videos of our animals provided us assurance all was well and were fun to see. We provided Valerie with detailed care directions for our dog, cat, fish, and house needs. It was great to see those directions being put into action via Valerie's photos and videos. Thank you, Valerie, for taking care of our pet family members and home while we were traveling. We greatly appreciate your efforts.

About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs since I was 8 years old! I’m comfortable taking care of dogs (and cats) that require a LOT (mine needs 4 miles a day and lot’s of attention) but also appreciative of those that just want to cuddle :) I’m currently working full-time, but I have lots of free time in the mornings and early afternoons! I’m comfortable working within your dog’s daily schedule. I am comfortable doing whatever your dog needs to have a happy, safe time while you are away. I have taken care of dogs with dog-doors, dogs in condos, etc. Whatever you need, let me know and I’ll make sure to do it (and if I can’t I will communicate that clearly)!

Heather was amazing with Payton Kitty, my 14-year-old Tabby! I'm so happy to have found someone who is not only good with cats, but finicky, skittish, old, medicated cats, at that! Payton is on a transdermal Methimazole for his antithyroidism. It is applied into his earflap (alternating) every 12 hours and in conjunction with his wet food. Heather was meticulous about keeping to Payton's schedule. We were away for 4 days, the first 4 days in 17 months and neither Payton nor I were looking forward to being apart, but Heather made us both feel like we were still together through her detailed check-ins and plenty of pictures! Many of her check-ins made me laugh, when she would mention, "Loud meowing coming from the bedroom," or "He walked away and into the bathroom." Yes, that's my cat. Anti-social to a T. Despite his wandering off when he was "done," she stayed the full 30 minutes just to make sure he had everything he needed. I will definitely lock-in Heather for my next away-from-home excursion! I highly recommend her, especially if you have a cat with fears and/or medication needs! Thank you so much, Heather! Payton says, "Merrrrow!"

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs for around 8 years. My experience includes tasks such as, walking, feeding, playing, and even administering insulin shots for various cats. Friends and family have trusted and relied on me to keep their pets safe, happy, and healthy while away. Currently I do not have any other employments, so all my time will be devoted to caring for your pets! This allows me schedule to be extremely flexible to fit your pet's needs. I have 1/4th an acre of fenced in yard with plenty of toys and my own dog (Libby, a Saint Bernard) to keep your dog company and entertained. Your pets would have full access to upstairs, entry, and basement levels.
