“I highly recommend Cynthia as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, attentive, and truly love animals. My pets always feel happy and safe in their care. Cynthia goes above and beyond to ensure each pet’s needs are met. I trust them completely!”
3. Matheus M.
“Matheus is one of my closest friends. He's repeatedly shown himself to be principled and caring, so much so that I asked him to watch my cats when I was on vacation. I'd been let down by other friends who catsat- not him. He sent me photo updates, spent considerable time with them, kept them well fed, and kept their litter clean. They still like him when they see him. He now has a cat of his own and gives her the same quality of care. He will make a great carer for your pet.”

10. Harvey Y.
“Harvey will be a great candidate as a pet caregiver. Not only is he a good friend, but I've also worked with him. He goes above and beyond when someone needs help. He takes initiative on a lot of tasks so I know if there is a problem with anything he will jump right into it. I know he will be great at this because he has dogs of his own. He feeds them, cares for them and they love him so much they follow him everywhere he goes.”

15. Maila D.
About: Hello! My name is Maila. Since the age of 10, I’ve had all kinds of pets (dogs, cats, fish, and parakeets), so I really can’t remember a time my household wasn’t filled with critters waiting to be cared for. On top of caring for the pets I already own, I also have experience with fostering dogs and volunteering at animal shelters. Whatever your pet care needs are, I’ve got you covered. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work night shifts, so I am currently available to care for pets between 11am to 4pm every day. I can be available anytime during weekends upon request. I will make sure to closely follow any rules/instructions you may have to ensure that everything runs smoothly for you and your pets. I believe in the importance of communication and will always keep in touch by sending updates.
16. Chelsea M.
“Chelsea took great care of my cat while I was away! She is so reliable and responsive!”
17. Noah L.
“I have personally worked with Noah in a customer service position and that is an area she excels and is an expert in. She is super friendly and built a great relationship with staff and customers. I have witnessed the loving care and attention she provides to her dog. Her dog's safety is her number one priority. She has also taken care of my cat before. She was able to understand boundaries as cats may not always be as socialized as dogs. She is my go-to person if I need extra assistance for pets and I'm always appreciative of her flexibility. I cannot recommend her enough!”
18. Regina G.
“Regina is a responsible and loving dog sitter. My 15-pound mutt Shiloh loves Regina and greets her enthusiastically every time she sees her. Shiloh also gets along great with Regina's little dog, Ace. Regina is a regular at the dog park, and is always focused on pet safety, as well as exercise, fun, and of course cuddles and scratches. I trust my own dog with Regina and highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”
19. Janet P.
“Janet responded to my “emergency” request immediately and said she could do a sit the next day!! Saved my life!! Max my dog loved her and Janet loves all dogs so it was a great match!! Gave me good dog tips as well. Thanks for a job well done!!”
