“Kara was absolutely incredible! She stayed at my house to watch my dog, Cash, and took amazing care of him and my home. Cash seemed to have an absolute blast. Lots of playtime, attention, and love. I came home to a happy, tired pup and everything in perfect order. Kara’s genuine care and reliability gave me complete peace of mind. I’d trust her with Cash and my home anytime!”
“We knew Elena was a good match during our meet and greet. A polite UH student, in the National guard, who just misses her parents and dog back home. We normally board our dogs and use Rover visits for our cats. This was much less stressful, and affordable. Knowing someone was with the dogs day and night in our own home, it can’t be beat. We came home to a clean house and happy pets, we have been telling all our friends about her. Thanks Elena!!!”
“Nyah was absolutely wonderful with our baby. She stayed in our home and left everything in impeccable condition. She was communicative and very accommodating when our travel back home was delayed by the airline. She spent extra time with Zuri so that we didn't have to worry about her as we were trying to figure out how to get home sooner. I would recommend her to anyone in need of someone kind, considerate and great with animals. Will definitely book with Nyah again.”
“Ren did a great job taking care of our Golden Doodle. It was great to be able to go out of town and to be able to leave our dog at home where she's comfortable and happy. Ren followed our instructions perfectly, and the house was cleaner when we got home then when we left. It was a pleasure to have Ren take care of Ginger. We will definitely book with Ren next time we go out of town!”
“Denisha was amazing! She was super prompt with communication and made leaving my two pups so much easier. She catered to all their needs, kept our home in great shape, and I could tell my dogs felt happy and loved the whole time. We came home to two very content pups and a tidy house. Highly recommend and would definitely book with her again!”
“Jennifer was wonderful! She took care of our three big babies while we were out of the country and she did such a good job. She’s a great communicator and left the house in good shape which was so appreciated. Super trustworthy and easy to work with! We will be using Jennifer again ?”

About: Since I was a child, I've been raising and taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I've nursed plenty of bottle babies- kittens, puppies and even rodents and farm animals.

I currently work full-time with Tuesday and Wednesday off, and I'm free in the afternoon as well. I usually have availability to step away as needed. I love matching a pet's energy and I'm happy hanging out on the couch or running circles in the yard- whatever the situation calls for!

About: I am just a huge fan of animals. I have taken care of friend’s and family member’s pets for over a decade now, and really want to spread my love of animals outside my circle! I am a Cat Lady through and through, and really love to meet new cats. I have experience with anything from scaredy cats to rambunctious ones. I love learning about cat psychology, and I definitely think it helps me connect with new feline friends. I offer predominately feline care, but am happy to meet their canine siblings and see if I’m a good fit for your family! I am currently a stay at home wife who really wants to contribute financially to our household. We have no kids, and my husband works from home. Essentially, I’m fully available to take care of your animals! Because we are both always home, I definitely have large freedoms in the times and days I am available! I am happy to follow any and all care instructions you may have for your furry family member. Personally, I am the main pet caretaker of our home, and I take great pride in making sure my animals are always fed on a schedule, clean and comfortable. Litter box scooping and disinfecting happens every day or every other day. All our animals (and your animals too if I have permission!) are showered with high quality treats, chews, bedding and food. Sometimes I get jealous of how good our pets have it! Lol
