Zoe was great! I booked her last minute and she was communicative, professional, and kind. She sent tons of photos of Lily and they were obviously having a blast. I would book her again in a heartbeat!

Rachel was great, would highly recommend. She went above and beyond ensuring all the kitty dishes were clean and all dirty litter was removed daily!

I am so pleased with the care my kitties received from Kathryn while we were away. Kathryn stopped by twice a day to clean the litter box, check to be sure the feeder was working and fill the water fountain. She also played with and gave pets to my attention hog kitty. My very skittish kitty even grew to trust Kathryn enough to play with her a little bit! My kitties were well cared for and Kathryn sent a progress note with pictures each day. I highly recommend Kathryn. She is dependable and does a great job caring for my pets.

Mariana is fabulous! She was recommended to me by another sitter and I’m so happy she was available to help look after my somewhat needy cat at the last minute. Even with an injury, she jumped right in to her role and when I returned home, Hamilton was calm and only mildly chatty which told me he received lots of attention while I was away. I will definitely be using her again. 😊

Andrea has been amazing! The dogs love her. She is very responsive and gives great updates in her visit details. She was willing to stop by ahead of our first scheduled drop-in to meet the pups. I’ve rebooked with her and plan to continue!

About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, I’ve been surrounded by furry friends since childhood, starting with my own small and medium-sized dogs that taught me the joys of companionship and responsibility. My passion led me to work in a veterinary clinic, where I handled dogs of all breeds and sizes—gaining hands-on knowledge in everything from basic health checks to understanding unique behavioral needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior cat needing gentle care, I thrive on building trust and creating tailored experiences that keep tails wagging and purrs flowing. I absolutely adore spending quality time with pets, discovering their quirky personalities, and ensuring they get the exercise and attention they deserve. As an avid walker myself, I’m excited to partner with you to customize walks or care routines that fit your dog’s energy level or your cat’s cozy preferences—whether it’s a brisk adventure through the park or a relaxing play session at home. Your pets’ safety and happiness are my top priorities. With a reliable, flexible approach and a genuine love for what I do, I’m committed to providing the peace of mind you need while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can make your fur baby’s day brighter! I am available Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 1:30pm. Weekend availability is 11:00am to 4:00pm. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits and am happy to accommodate both one-off bookings and regular, ongoing walks. I aim to be flexible where possible and work with you to find a schedule that best suits your pet’s routine. For your pet’s safety, please ensure a secure lead and a properly fitted collar or harness is provided for all walks. To help me give the best possible care, I ask that you share any important information about your pet, including nervousness around unfamiliar people, other animals, or any history of reactivity or aggression. This allows me to plan walks and visits that are safe, comfortable, and suited to your pet’s individual needs. Your pet’s well-being always comes first. If weather conditions are expected to be unsafe (such as extreme heat, cold, or severe weather), I may need to cancel or adjust a booking. In these cases, I will always give as much notice as possible and communicate clearly.

Shane was so good with our senior kitty, Lira. He took the time to listen to her habits & understand the kind of cat she is, and then followed up with his own questions as well. He was detailed with the Rover card responses and he had plenty of experience caring for older cats (and cats in general). Thank you Shane for giving us peace of mind while we were away!

This was my first time hiring a pet sitter, and Nicollette made for an amazing first experience! My senior cat Bear, who is usually very skittish around new people, felt safe enough to hang out around her instead of hiding, and was well taken care of. I’ll definitely go with her again should I ever need another sitter!

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I grew up in a home with dogs, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I took on more and more responsibility — from feeding and playtime as a kid to handling walks, daily care, and giving lots of love and attention as I got older. Although I no longer have pets of my own, I still have a deep love for animals. Back in high school, I regularly cat-sat for a family, which included administering medication like ear drops and mixing pills into food. While it's been a little while, that experience helped me become confident and comfortable caring for pets with special needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer stay, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I recently graduated from my master’s program and am currently applying for jobs, so I’m home most of the day and have a very open, flexible schedule. That means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, care, and attention throughout the day — whether it’s for walks, playtime, feedings, or just extra snuggles. I love having animals around and enjoy making them feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I do my best to stick to their usual routines — including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide — so your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you're away. Although I live in an apartment, my building has an unfenced dog park where pets can get some outdoor time (on-leash, unless otherwise approved), and there are plenty of walking paths nearby for longer walks and exercise. I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will get lots of attention, care, and company. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable.

She was great! It was a quick turn around request but she was still able to accommodate a meet and greet with the cats before booking. Both cats loved her and she even helped out with a perishable package I got early! She took care of my cats and respected my home. She had great communication too.

Kristy did a wonderful job on a last minute request to watch my cats over the holidays and handled all the many meds they get with total ease. She was super reliable and friendly and i trusted her completely to watch the cats. She even came by to pick up the keys and that really put me at ease. I would’ve been entirely screwed for the holidays without her so I can’t appreciate her enough! Would 100% recommend.

Anica took such good care of our dog and cat. Even though our cat is spicy, she still went out of her way to engage with her safely! When our dog got a tick, she removed it for us instead of waiting for us to get home. She was also super flexible when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. It was such a comfort when things were chaotic, we knew Anica was taking great care of our babies. Will definitely be using her services again!

Christina did an awesome job taking care of both my cat and my dog. My dog is very high energy, and it was clear right away that she was patient, attentive, and knew how to handle him. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She kept us updated throughout the check-ins with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. It made a big difference being able to see how happy and well cared for they were. She also went above and beyond by feeding my fish, which I didn’t have to worry about at all. I would absolutely recommend Christina and would gladly book with her again.
