“I am repeated client with Melissa and I really trust her with my beloved cat Oakley! She truly spends time with him and gives him much needed attention while we are away! Thank you!”


“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”


“Heather was great with my cat!! Super friendly and communicative with me before and throughout visit, and helped me out by bringing in my deliveries. Thank you so much, would definitely call her up again!!”


“I am beyond grateful for Alison’s exceptional care of my dog. Not only did they provide all the basics—feeding, walks, and playtime—but they went the extra mile to make sure my dog was safe during a snowstorm. She was incredibly. It was evident that Alison thought about my dog and when above and beyond and truly cares about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, thank you for your kindness and dedication!”


“We had Rowan kitty sit for us again and could not be happier. It was so clear from the photos she posted and reports she gave that she and kitty got along fabulously. Rowan is kind and reliable. Highly highly recommend!”


“Olivia is great! She communicated very well before and during our trip. She made sure to give both our cats some cuddles and play time and sent pictures of course. She left the house in great shape even better than most. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our babies while we were gone.”


“Taylor is the best!! She is so attentive to my cat, Kitters, and is very clear about what happens during the visits. And Taylor was super accommodating for figuring out the best situation for exchanging keys and whatnot. Will 100% be booking Taylor again for Kitters!”


“Lots of great updates, looked like they had great quality time together! Brought peace of mind to see pics of my kitty having such a fun time when I had to find someone to take care of her at the last minute”


“Tabby is absolutely wonderful. My pups and kitty had a lovely time with her. I could tell they were really comfortable while I was gone. She has watched them multiple times at this point and I will definitely be booking her for services again whenever I am headed out of town.”


“The cats have been really warming up to Liv - even our shyest boy! They all love her visits - lots of pets and treats. Liv has been taking the cutest photos of our babies while we’ve been gone and missing their faces 😊 thanks so much for your help!”


“Maria has been fantastic and reliable in caring for our two dogs regularly over the past year. We are usually nervous introducing our dogs to new caretakers as they have behavioral struggles, but Maria put us at ease. She was very adaptable and intuitive to their needs. For our dogs with anxiety, she has always provided a calm and reassuring presence. For our dog with overprotective instincts, she was persistent and respectful to establish trust. We have relied on her walking, day care and overnight sitting services regularly during our busy work schedules. She is very reliable, available and a great communicator. There is no one we trust more with our dogs. We cannot recommend her enough!”


About: I grew up with plenty of dogs in my family, and I was usually the designated dog sitter. All of my family and friends dogs grew up with me so I've delt with puppies and older dogs alike. I have watched dogs for months at a time and have enjoyed every last minute. I work a 9am-5pm from Mon-Fri so I am mostly busy then. I usually work from home the second half of the week so there is some flexibility on those days. But I have a completely open schedule Saturday and Sunday. If you do book for Fridays, please book drop off before 8:30am or after 2:00pm as I am meeting heavy during that time frame My apartment has a large grass yard for the dogs to play. I also love going on walks, so I am definitely willing to take them to parks. I own extra leashes, footies, beds, treats and other doggie essentials. If there are any concerns, I am willing to accommodate for dog.

“Dana has been so awesome with our 8-yr old cat, Momo. Momo was recovering from a surgery and was on a cone, so we’d been worried about leaving her by herself. We trusted her with Dana and we’re so glad we did because Dana has reallllyyyy helped us out (and calmed our separation anxieties too). She is calm and kind, and was great with Momo—she sent us regular, detailed updates and pictures from her visits. Dana was also great about giving Momo her daily medications, food and pets, and she actually did MUCH more than what we had asked of her. Really appreciate Dana and will definitely reach out to her in the future!! Highly recommend her <3 :)”


“Tori took great care of my kitties! I returned from a trip to find my house and pets well cared for, clean, and happy. Thanks for putting in the time and cuddles and I appreciate the terrific communication!”


About: I have been caring for cats and dogs since the age of 12. I also own two friendly and well-behaved dogs who enjoy meeting new companions. I currently work from home, which allows me the flexibility to offer pet sitting during my available hours. I have a fairly open schedule and genuinely enjoy caring for animals—it’s something I’m passionate about. I have a fenced-in side yard that’s perfect for quick potty breaks throughout the day. I also make daily trips to the dog park so my dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise.
