“This was our first time using Rover & leaving since adopting our kittens. Beatrice made the process very easy & smooth. She was kind, flexible, & professional. She communicated when needed & provided some cure photo updates which we appreciated! Will definitely be rebooking with her again in the future & would recommend to anyone!”


“Will is actually a cat PRO. He’s so attentive to the little asks (like when I would want to see Tobeans live-in-action because I missed him). I always knew my kitten was safe, loved, played with, and happy. He’s quick and responsive, and sends so many updates without me needing to ask. Really worth every penny and will definitely be staying here again!”


“Eva was great with the cats and sent detailed updates and photos every day while I was away on a work trip! It was the longest I’d left them so I was nervous but Eva was so great I never worried while I was actually away ☺️”


“Ana is communicative, reliable and was committed to keeping me two young cats safe and happy. She provided tailored care and was patient and flexible with an issue with my house that took place while I was away. Collaborative and kind. Highly recommend.”


“Lydia did a wonderful job keeping us in the loop with our needy/moody cat's daily activities via detailed daily updates, and provided lots of photo and video proof of life and wellbeing while we were away. 😂 Thanks Lydia!”


“Autumn took care of our kitty for a week and was so great! She is super communicative and responsive. My normally very shy kitty was crawling all over her within seconds of her arrival so she is clearly great with animals. Will definitely book again in the future”


“Jesse is amazing and is both responsive to the owner and loving to the cats. The cats were so at ease with the visit and I feel relaxed leaving them knowing he's the one who will be with them. A real animal person! Highly recommend”


“Jessica has gone above and beyond to provide the best care for our cat Tuna. While we were away on an overseas trip, we received updates twice a day with detailed summary of Tuna’s activities. We were also sent multiple videos and pictures which gave us peace of mind that Tuna was enjoying her time at Jessica’s. As Tuna is an older cat and needs her medication daily we were really happy with Jessica’s detail to attention and constant communication. Would highly recommend Jessica’s service and would absolutely book with her again!”



About: As a pet caregiver for over a decade, you can be sure that your best friend is in safe care. I grew up with dogs and started providing pet care professionally in 2015. In addition to taking care of only-child canines, I offer services to multi-dog and multi-species households. I have experience caring for cats, rabbits, birds, and reptiles. What you can expect from me as a sitter: - Loving companionship for your animal and clear communication with you. - Daily photo/video updates! - Meals, walks, play, and medications administered according to your dog’s regular schedule. My goal is to make sure your dog feels completely comfortable and cared for while their family is away. Our canine companions are such important parts of our lives, so it is vital that your sitter/walker is as passionate about the health and happiness of your best friend as you are. Can't wait to meet you and your dog, and forge a relationship centered around the wellbeing of your beloved companion! I am self employed as an artist, so my schedule is flexible and can be adjusted to accommodate your animal’s needs. I am available for overnight sitting and daytime check-ins and walks any day of the week with a few days advanced notice. I care for clients’ dogs in their homes according to my clients’ instructions, which we’ll go over during our meet and greet. I’d love to know ahead of time if your dog has any special talents like escape artistry, opening trash cans, or jumping onto the kitchen counter and scarfing down an entire loaf of bread in under 10 seconds (real story). Please also share if there are off-limits areas for your dog, either inside or outside your home.

About: I took care of my sister's cat who has chronic urinary issues for 6 moths, which taught me how to be attentive to subtle changes in behavior, administer medication, and maintain a clean and stress-free environment. I’m comfortable following special diets and care routines, and I understand how important consistency is for pets with health conditions. Whether your pet needs extra patience, playtime, or just someone calm and dependable, I’m here to help. I'm currently a student who will be working full-time over the summer, but I'm flexible in the evenings and over the weekends. I’m happy to accommodate early morning or evening walks, check-ins, or drop-ins, and I’m typically available for weekend stays or sitting. I always keep a clean and pet-friendly environment free of hazards, with secure spaces for rest and play. In a client’s home, I respect your space and follow instructions closely to maintain your pet’s familiar routine. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

“Jalyn took excellent care of my cat Orlando over Christmas. She gave him treats and cuddles, and catered to his silly quirks like brushing his whiskers :) She sent the sweetest notes and pictures after each visit. She was also super-responsive to communication. I'd hire Jalyn again in a heartbeat!”

Marília O.
“Mah is our hero and savior when it comes to taking care of our cat - Sampa. She is the person we know we can fully trust to take care of him when we are out. We’ve already had her sleeping over at our place for several days (for long trips) and also just coming over a couple of times to feed him during weekends. She sends medias of him during the whole stay, and we are sure she gives lots of love to him. Definitely recommend her service to anyone who wants a trusted person to give love and take care of your pets 🥰💖”
