“Mariana was great. She was responsive by text, came over for a meet and greet before we left, sent daily photos (in which our cat was clearly enjoying the visits!), and seems to really love animals.”
“Anais did a fantastic job with our cat! She immediately responded to my request and set up a meet and greet. She was punctual and responsive. She took care of all the care for Coco and brought in our mail too! She kept us updated with pictures and feedback. She even notified us of a gas smell in the house. I could see from the pictures and our return home that our cat was well cared for. We will ask Anais back anytime to care for our cat. She’s a gem!!”
About: I have been my dog’s main care taker for the 7 years we’ve had her. Also, my aunt regularly fosters cats of all ages and i’ve been helping her care for them since she started. I have lots of experience caring for animals of all ages and abilities! I’m currently working part time and my school schedule is pretty light so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet and give them all the attention they need! I live in an apartment with my very friendly yorkie, Chloe. The neighborhood i’m in is surrounded by parks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and time outside.
“This was the first time leaving my newly adopted shy (but social) cat for multiple days, but quickly realized Charlotte was I good hands. Eric followed all my detailed directions, provided detailed notes and photos, and worked diligently to make sure she got some socializing every visit (despite being shy) — not an easy feat! He was also very communicative and prompt, and went beyond task expectations.”
“Cailan was so caring and responsive - I felt very assured that she would take care of my kitty even while I was on the other side of the country! She is also very thorough and detail oriented, thank you Cailan!!!”
“Joey was fantastic with our three month old puppy! We are new puppy parents and both nurses so we work long shifts. This was our first time leaving our new puppy home while we both worked a 12 hour shift. She came 3 times, for an hour each time and provided tons of updates. She reinforced training we’ve been working on and made us feel so comfortable leaving him! Will definitely be rebooking again with Joey!”
“Julia was great! She helped us out when we needed a sitter last minute. She was flexible and had great communication. Our skittish cat even let her brush her after a few visits. We’d definitely work with her again in the future!”
“Diana was fabulous with our two dogs this weekend. They adore her and she looks after them like they are her own. We highly recommend! We will be booking again.”
“Rachel took great care of our cat, Ellie. She was punctual, communicative, and a lovely person overall! Ellie seems to be a big fan of her as well, as the photos we received showed her enjoying cuddles and playing :) We will definitely reach out to her again next time we leave town.”
“Mike did a fantastic job carrying for my cat! Really appreciate him coming through when my last sitter canceled on me last minute. Was really attentive and carrying and my cat loved him. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“Jennifer took extraordinary care of my beloved cat! She was she was incredibly responsible and responsive to me while I was away traveling. She sent me frequent updates and pictures and gave my little guy so much love! My cat and apartment were in great hands I highly recommend Jennifer and hope to book her again.”
“Julia was so great walking my dog Colby! She was so communicative and thorough every step of the way. My dog can be shy and he warmed up to her right away. Thanks so much for your help, Julia! Highly recommend her as a rover 😊”
“Emily was very easy to work with, kind and sweet. She came 2x a day as scheduled and provided photo updates (which we really loved, as it was our first time leaving our cats). She won over our more shy cat almost immediately, which is a bonus!”
“I'm so thrilled that my kitty Kato sees Arillia's strengths and warmth as a caregiver, which means he not only plays, cuddles, but also EATS (!) while I'm away. We're so lucky to have Arillia and the extra TLC she brings.”
“Aaron was so great- took many photos, kept the litter box clean, had fast responses and kept my apartment clean. So grateful for his help. My vacation was nicer knowing he looked over my Gigi🩶”

Joslyn was wonderful. I had to go out of town last minute, and was worried about leaving my 2 young kitties. A few of my cat gadgets broke while I was gone, and she ended up having to clean up their mess, but she was so gracious. Would absolutely trust her to watch my babies again!
Rachel is amazing!! She is thoughtful and responsive and clearly cares about my kitten! My girl also obviously has the best time playing with Rachel and is happy to have her come by. Rachel’s updates are thorough and I feel complete peace of mind when traveling. Couldn’t recommend her as a cat sitter enough!
Amazing care for my cats. I will definitely be a repeat customer. She went above and beyond and ensured my cats were happy and healthy, being diligent about food, water, and even socializing with them. she is an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend Marianna
Xinyuan was so reliable, kind, and meticulous. Highly recommended! She sent several photos and videos after every visit and was so caring, taking the time to play with my cat who was lonely the week I was away. She also vacuumed up all the tracked litter! Nice to come home to clean floors.
Liz was an absolute DREAM! She took such good care of my cat while I was gone for 2 weeks. I was so nervous to be gone for so long, but Liz put me at ease with her thoughtful questions, updates and pictures she sent. Liz fed my cat, played with her, and took care of her litter and water exactly how I preferred. She even noticed something in my apartment, let me know and handled it. She left my apartment very clean and I truly could not recommend her more!! I will definitely be booking with her again :)
Leaving another review for Hillary because she has been absolutely amazing and so flexible with our kitties for multiple last minute requests! One of our kitties is on chemo and needs multiple meds, and it’s such a relief to have someone as trustworthy, kind, and careful as Hillary to check on him while we’re away.
