4. Sophia C.

“Sophia did a great job with our cat, Kiwi. In the past - when we had to leave him overnight or be away - we would come back to him being very upset or having gone to the bathroom everywhere. But this time around, there was no mess - and he was very calm. So we're grateful that she was able to spend time with him.”

9. Jordan R.
About: Being with animals is my happy place, I get a huge sense of comfort from them and do my best to reciprocate that feeling to them. I love taking walks, hiking, and paddle boarding so I’m prepared to give your dog a nice workout that they’ll enjoy. Or, if they prefer slow strolls I’m down for that too! I’m available after 4pm on weekdays and all day on weekends to do walks, play dates, or just quick potty breaks. Anything works for me! I will abide by all of your requests and be nothing but a safe space for your animal. Your pet will always be my top priority.


10. Zoe M.
“As worried parents of an anxious rescue, we were uneasy about leaving our puppy for our first trip away from home. Zoe exceeded our expectations before we even left for vacation, by coming to visit (sometimes multiple times a week) and get our girl accustomed to a new person, as she can be skittish. Zoe was gentle and sensitive to her anxiety, flexible and available with scheduling, and showed true interest and care for our girl. During the vacation, Zoe was an excellent communicator, often sending daily updates that included pictures and/or videos. Being away from our dog for the first time was something we worried about, but felt at ease knowing she was in good hands and taken care of well. Zoe is our first choice for a pet sitter and now our girl greets her with excitement and a wagging tail, considering Zoe as one of her friends and safe people. I would highly recommend Zoe to take care of your pet!”


11. Amber S.

“We are so grateful for Amber’s services! She took great care of our kitties while we were away which gave us such peace of mind. Will absolutely rebook!”


12. Shaira J.

“Shaira is AMAZING! She is not only kind and trustworthy, but she also goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of. There were multiple times when I had to ask her to open an Amazon package with my cat’s food in it because I forgot to re-stock before I left for a long trip and she had no problems helping out. She leaves great updates and I can tell based on the pictures she sends that my cat is so happy to see her. She makes sure to keep the pet area and other areas extra clean. It’s a great feeling knowing that my fur baby is left in good hands, and I know with Shaira, she’s left in excellent hands. I cannot recommended Shaira enough, she is simply the best.”


13. Lisa F.

“Lisa has been a dream to work with. She's always responsive and has been very flexible with times as we've needed. My pup can be anxious around new people but she was patient and took time to get to know and make me feel comfortable. Will continue to book and highly recommend.”
