“Nikki was the perfect sitter for my dog! My dog can be nervous around new people, but she warmed up to Nikki immediately. Nikki was always quick to respond to messages and accommodated my often fluctuating schedule. I can’t recommend her enough!!”
About: I have extensive, hands-on experience across the entire developmental spectrum, from neonate kittens requiring specialized feeding to the patient care required for senior dogs with mobility challenges. I'm comfortable administering oral/topical medications for both cats and dogs. I move at the pet’s pace. Whether a pet is shy, high-energy, or slowing down with age, I tailor my approach to their unique comfort levels and temperament to make sure they stay happy and healthy. As a full-time professional in an office Monday through Thursday (8:00 AM – 5:00 PM), I provide highly structured and reliable care. I treat my sitting schedule with the same level of commitment as my career. Monday – Thursday: Full availability for walks, feeding, and playtime starting at 6:00 PM. Overnights: I am happy to provide overnight care for pets that are comfortable being home independently during a standard workday. Friday – Sunday: * Full-Day Availability: My schedule is completely open for adventure walks, multiple drop-ins, or more specialized care. My approach is centered on maintaining your pet's comfort and routine in the environment they know best—their own home! My evenings and weekends are dedicated to whatever your pet needs most—whether that’s an playtime, a precise medication routine, or just hanging out together on the couch! I'm comfortable administering various medications and am prepared for emergencies with my CPR training. Beyond keeping your pets safe, I treat your home with respect, ensuring it stays tidy, secure, and exactly as you left it.
“Kris has been great with our very excitable and wiggly pitty mix. She follows instructions and our dog has been happy and well cared for when we get home. She's restoring our trust in the system after a few disappointing experiences with past dog sitters. We will be rebooking with Kris as long as she is available and willing to do it!”
“Kiwi was absolutely wonderful! She sent detailed updates after each visit along with photos. She didn’t hesitate to ask questions when she was unsure of something or needed advice. By the end of her stay, my typically shy pup had warmed up to her and looked forward to her visits. I highly recommend Kiwi for your pet care needs!”
About: I tend to bond well with doggos and am happy to walk, feed, cuddle, give belly rubs, and play tug-of-war and fetch with your dog(s). I also have experience caring for senior doggies who need medications and extra care and attention. I'm available for daily dog-walking, drop-in visits, and pet-sitting. I have a roommate who loves and can care for my cat so I am able to stay in your home and keep your pet company while you're away. I'm able to stop in for a time to feed and care for or walk your pet, or I can stay at your home if your pet needs more company and support. As a long-time cat mom who treasures her feline companion, I understand the importance of knowing your pet is being well-cared for when you can't be there. I commit to showing your pet the same care I would show my own, and I will be respectful of your home and conscientious about keeping it clean!
“Ash has done a great job caring for our 9 week old puppy during drop-ins. Ash goes the extra mile to make sure Violet eats, plays, and goes out. We are so appreciative.”

About: James and I started pet sitting and traveling in 2018, and it has been a fabulous adventure. We enjoy taking care of all animals. We love walking the dogs to get our steps in and cats with their uniqueness. We believe staying home with them until they get settled in is very important. We won’t leave them home alone, as they are happier when we’re around. Lots of walks, play time, and snuggles. We have lived in Seward Park since 2003 in a home with a fenced yard about a mile from the park. It is a great dog walking neighborhood. We enjoy puppies and senior dogs. We are also good medicine givers. Call or text us. We are a Retired married couple who throughly enjoy dogs/cats. We have been International pet sitters since 2018, and we have found that bonding is the most important thing about boarding a new animal. Creating a trust and being there with them so they don’t feel alone. Having fun activities to do that they enjoy is imperative. Many times it’s walking and “getting a smell” of their new environment. We have many popular walking neighborhood loops and Seward Park is always a hit. We enjoy them and they enjoy us. We make it a priority to listen to their individual language and gain their trust. Our home has screened windows and lots of light. We have safe hiding places, a comfy bed, and are home a lot, which they really like. Food is very important and we feed them as requested. We listen to what our pet owners have to say about their animals, as everyone is different. Please let us know anything else that makes them feel comfortable.
“Cynda is amazing and took great care of my two cats in a series of drop in visits while I was out of town for a few days. One cat has asthma and Cynda was very kind and thoughtful to support her needs. She is a great communicator. Very happy cats. Thank you so much.”
“Noa did a great job caring for our cats during a long vacation. She went above and beyond to keep things clean around their litter box and kept us supplied with cute pix. I would not hesitate to use her again.”
“Anais was fantastic!! My dogs really loved her and she was excellent at communication and keeping me up to date on how things were going. I absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
“Alexis was amazing with my golden doodle Rainee! She just recovered from surgery due to a ligament tear while playing in a field and she was so attentive to her and on short notice too! She spent time with her, have her good and medicine and took her on nice walks while we were out of town! She kept me up to date in everything was very professional and sent any cute photos and videos! Thank you!!”
About: I love pets and have had pets for most of my adult life. I also help take care of dogs and cats for my friends and families. My major was wildlife conservation and fun fact about me is I was a panda keeper for three years. I am an animal lover and take good care of them. My schedule is pretty flexible and I will make sure my calendar is updated. Please feel free to message me if there are dates that are blocked off and I will try my best to accommodate. I understand every pet is different. When meeting new pets and their parents I will make sure to understand the needs of each pet so I can keep them safe whether it is for walks, drop-ins or overnight stays.
“Ericka was awesome doing drop-ins with our anxious, reactive dog! She was very patient in getting him to warm up to her and a great communicator. We look forward to future visits with her!”

Maura was an exceptional sitter. She was always updating us on how our babies were doing and taking pictures of them as well. This was our first time leaving them alone and knowing she was watching them made everything better. I highly recommend her and we will be booking future visits when another trip comes up!
Courtney has been a stellar sitter and a great person to work with. Our cats are elderlies and Milo need his medications daily. Courtney took care of him and was very patient with our requests during the course of the trip. Thanks for being a great person and sitter, Courtney! Looking forward to work with you again in the future
Always feel good about my older dog’s care with she’s with Brandi! She’s slowing down and has some behavior things and Brandi took care to check in about her walking needs and take her on a gentle walk at her own pace. Definitely trust Brandi for my pet care needs!
Alex took incredible care of my three cats while I was away! She was attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. Exactly what you want when leaving your fur babies with someone new. She kept me updated and I could tell she treated them like her own. Highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter!
Ashley got us out of a pinch at the last minute and over a holiday weekend to boot. She gave excellent care to our cats who were having GI problems after a round of antibiotics. She was very vigilant and gave us detailed reports so we could monitor them from afar. We were able to relax and take a badly needed getaway thanks to her care for our cats.
Katie, thank you for going above and beyond with looking out for not only our two cats, but our house (leaky coffee pot clean up 🙏🏻)! You send such detailed updates and caring messages about our cats every time you watch them- we appreciate you, and so do they!
Todd took amazing care of Finn during our drop‑ins! He was thorough, punctual, and makes dogs/pets feel instantly at ease. Finn can be shy/quirky at first with certain people, but Todd won him over immediately and kept me updated with photos and notes. It’s such a relief knowing Finn is in good hands. We’ll absolutely be using Todd again!
