“Minerva did an excellent job watching my pup Maple during two drop in visits. She was communicative, sent cute pics, and was available last minute. Thanks!”
“Amanda was so great with our kitty Jupiter! He loved spending time with her while we were gone. Amanda sent updates each trip and included lots of sweet photos. She was amazing!”
“Chelsie is the best!! She took excellent care of our fur baby while we were away. She sent great recaps with each visit. We knew that Milo was in the best care with her! We will absolutely be booking her for future vacations 😻”
“Ana was absolutely wonderful!! She was incredibly generous and accommodating with a very last second request and we could not have been more grateful! She went above and beyond with her willingness to do a late request meet & greet, she was so responsive, so flexible, and did such an amazing job taking care of our girl. We could not recommend Ana more highly!!!!”
“Rebecca is an all star. Her communication was perfect; she was competent and reliable; and I felt completely at ease knowing that my cats were in such good hands. I highly recommend Rebecca!!!”
“Liza is amazing! She’s taken care of my cat Phoebe a few times while I’ve been out of town. Phoebe loves her, and I know Phoebe is in great hands. Liza also picked up some packages for me that were delivered when I was gone, which was very helpful. I will definitely book Liza again.”
“Kymberly is great with our cat and very communicative. Our cat can be a little feisty and Kymberly took it all in stride. He was happy to see her and loved her visit.”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful with our 4-month-old German Shepherd puppy! She is incredibly caring and detail-oriented, which gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pup loved her by the end of the stay. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking her again!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Dog Walker! Jordan is fantastic - reliable, caring, and professional. My dog comes home happy and tired after every walk. Jordan sends updates with photos and is flexible with scheduling. My pup always gets excited when Jordan arrives! Highly recommend - 5 stars!”
“Trustworthy, communicative, dog-person! Thankful for Lauren jumping into a last minute booking and making an effort to get to know my dog! Will book again!”
“Allie is an amazing, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! We are so glad we booked her to care for our two kitties while we were out of town. Her communication was impeccable and we received photos and updates daily. Thanks so much Allie! Oskie and Jango will miss you until next time :)”
“I had an excellent experience with Samuel and would absolutely book again. He went above and beyond in every way. He was punctual, communicative, and consistently sent thoughtful updates and pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. My dog can be a bit anxious and slow to warm up, but it was very clear she felt safe and comfortable with him. She even ate normally, which she typically doesn’t do when I’m gone, and that alone says a lot. He didn’t just complete the visits, he genuinely cared about her wellbeing. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that means everything to me. Highly recommend.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I do not take leaving my two feline furbabies behind lightly! Nicole, above and beyond, made me feel comfortable from the get go. During our "meet the cats" visit she sat down and talked through all of the things she would do and how she would communicate. She was open and receptive to some changes I asked about and was really just embodied calm and confidence. There wasn't a moment I worried while away during my 5-day trip and I really (really!) appreciated knowing the times I could expect to hear from her every day (she came over twice a day). Will ask for her help again and in fact am going to send her a message now (meow?) !”
“Melissa is absolutely amazing. She did house visits for my cat twice a day for weeks while I was gone and made sure Momo (my cat) was very well taken care of. Her daily wonderful (and so funny) updates definitely gave me a peace of mind during travels. I'll for sure contact her to pet sit next time.”
“Carly got back to me fast, and we managed to set up a meet and greet before her first drop-in with Baloo. Good communication, and she sent a quick note with some pics of him during her visit. I’ve booked her before and will do so again.”
“Jill was amazing! She kept me up to date with both kitties and their personalities. Plus, their food and litter package was delivered late due to snow (after I already left) and Jill brought up the heavy box and unpacked everything for me! Came home to a clean apartment and 2 happy cats - all I can ask for. Thank you Jill!”
About: When I was just a little kid a big parrot flew into our house, and I kept it as a pet from the age of 6 to 18. Then when I went off to college my parents took care of it. After college I helped take care of my sister’s dogs. And I lived with a girl for a while who owned two cats that I took care of so I have lots of experience with different animals. I even used to own a guinea pig at one point in my life. So my entire life has revolved around taking care of pets. So I figured this would be a great job for me. I’m extremely loving and caring and will treat your pets just like I would mind. I’m a very loving and caring person. I currently am unemployed. I’m looking for a job, but as of right now, my schedule is fully open. So please hit me up whenever I need the money. Well, besides the basics like feeding them and making sure they’re going to the bathroom and drinking water, I always play with them. Show them attention when they want attention and don’t show them attention when they don’t want attention. I’m pretty good at reading body language of an animal. I love playing with dogs and cats. I know it’s important for them to get out their energy so they can have a good night sleep. I love going on walks. So I also do that in anything else like taking them to the dog park
“We love Stephanie! She’s so thoughtful and sweet with our 15 year old dog and cares for her advanced needs. Stephanie is reliable, timely, and communicative. We’re thankful to have such a great sitter and friend for Annabelle!”

Brianna’s been our preferred pet sitter for two years now and we’re going to miss her after we move. She’s been great with our cats, flexible, and helpful the one time an emergency came up. Our two cats are usually fairly standoffish. Brianna won them over on her first visit. At times we think they like her more than they like us. I’d recommend her to anyone needing pet care while they’re away from home.
Emma is a repeat sitter and does a wonderful job checking on our 3 cats. One of our cats is an elderly senior man who needs more focused attention around his eating habits/medicine and is always on top of managing his extra care. She’s very communicative and reliable! I’d recommend her to anyone!
Rhea is an amazing pet sitter and playmate for our three kitties. We had an extended vacation and it’s always hard to leave the cats that long. Rhea did a great job updating us daily with pics and info on how they were doing and made sure we knew the cats were doing well and we didn’t need to worry about them at all. We absolutely wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch the kitties again.
Jasie was great! My cat warmed right up to her and Jasie took great care of her while I was away. I also appreciate that Jasie was able to sit for me pretty last minute. Jasie is wonderful and super easy to communicate with! I highly recommend and would book with Jasie again.
This was our second time booking with Samuel, and once again he was wonderful. Papercut genuinely likes him, which says a lot. She can be particular about people, and it’s clear she feels comfortable and safe in his care. Samuel is reliable, communicative, and always keeps me updated while I’m away. Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog gives me tremendous peace of mind. It’s obvious he truly cares about the pets he watches and takes the responsibility seriously. Finding someone you trust with your dog is priceless, and I feel very fortunate to have found Samuel. We will absolutely continue booking with him in the future, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.
Sabrina is such a great cat sitter! She kept our cats entertained and well cared for while keeping us well-informed during our 2 week trip. She really connected with both of our cats (even the one with trust issues!), and was great about monitoring a couple of issues we had during our trip. She also helped keep our apartment tidy and sent stellar 10/10 cat pics! We will definitely be booking again with Sabrina!
Ana took great care of our two kitties while we out on vacation! She was very friendly during our meet and greet and our cats instantly liked her. Ana was able to feed them twice a day and provided photos each time. We came back to happy kitties and a clean home :-)
Kayla took care of our car Scooter while we were away and he loved her. He is an older cat who takes medicine and she was so helpful by being able to drop in an extra time when our flight got delayed. I was so relieved to have someone reliable looking after him.
