“Avary is absolutely amazing! Such a sweet person that loves animals and with patience and a few Churus was able to win my cat Hanna over! Avary sent us multiple pictures and checked every detail with us to make sure we knew our kitty was taken care of. Thank you Avary! 100% would recommend 🥰🫶🏼”
“Hannah is amazing! I’ll never need to find another pet sitter again because she is perfect. My babies were taken care of so well and her updates were thorough as well as funny! My home and my pets were in great hands, I 100% recommended Hannah!”
“Molly was amazing!!! My dog can be a lot and I worry that she's too big and excitable to walk with a stranger but Molly was a true professional and put me at ease. She sent me ample photos of my girl on her walk and I came home to find her perfectly pooped. Will definitely hire Molly again!”
“Elizabeth was great! She was able to fill in cat sitting last minute which we really appreciated, and was super communicative and sweet w our kitty. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Victoria took such good care of Bean! I just adopted him recently so he was still adjusting and she knew exactly how to make him feel safe! She was very responsive and helpful! Definitely recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I bring—patient attention, gentle affection, and the little extras that make pets feel truly seen. I take my time, follow their rhythms, and treat every animal like they’re already part of my family. I have a lot of flexible time to spend with adorable pets. I am available in the mornings, afternoons and evenings during the week and on weekends. My routine is pretty flexible, so last minute visits are no problem. I care for animals in the client's home. I feel animals are more comfortable in the environment they are used to living in. It leads to a happier experience for us both. I follow any and all instructions left by the client.
“Harriet was amazing! She was communicative, responsive, and alleviated all my concerns at leaving my skittish kitty for the first time. Highly recommend and I won’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Laura is very attentive and caring, she did a great job looking after my high anxiety chihuahua. She provided a lot of updates and photos so I always knew he was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Beyza was amazing with our dog Luca and two cats ! They were very attentive and despite being a little shy Luca easily warmed up and definitely felt like he gained a new best friend by the end of the weekend :) would definitely recommend Beyza for all your furry friend needs !”
“James was very communicative and did an excellent job taking care of my two very shy cats while I was away for Christmas. I appreciated the daily updates and that he stopped by to get the tour of my apartment beforehand!”
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and am no stranger to pet care! Walks, feedings, cleanings, you name it! More recently, I am primary sitter for Lucile and Barkley, two dogs of a family friend for going on four years now. Three walks a day and plenty of time for cuddles! I used to work for Wag when I lived in San Francisco before transitioning into full-time work. I’ve walked all kinds of dogs, big to small, and believe that all animals deserve top tier care! I hope to meet you furry children soon! 🫶🏻 I currently work full-time for a genomic testing lab that offers testing for early and advanced stage cancer patients but remotely so it does allow for the flexibility of stepping away when needed! My roommate has two cats of her own so I will not be offering boarding services. It’s important to me that the environment be exactly how it was left by the owners but if I notice that food has made it out of the bowl or if your pet has an accident, I’m there to ensure this gets cleaned. Upon arriving, I always ensure I take my time with the animals to build trust by allowing them to familiarize themselves with me through smelling, and offering owner-approved treats!
“Reliable and flexible sitter, was able to drop in twice a day for an extended period of time! Attentive and did all that was asked. Highly recommend !!”
“Amazing cat sitter. Really pays attention to detail and takes care of our cat lovingly. I would highly recommend this sitter for having top service, quality and care.”
“Onyekachi is amazing! She took the time to really get to know my dog and communicates frequently, which gives me so much peace of mind. My dog is a senior and will be staying alone for the first time ever, so I was naturally nervous. Thanks to Onyekachi’s thoughtful drop-in visits and attentive care, I feel confident that my dog will be safe, comfortable, and very well cared for.”
“Vivian was amazing with my kitty Peanut! I had communication with her every visit and she sent multiple pics and updates. Peanut was shy and took some time to warm up to her but Vivian was constant with her attention and helped Peanut to feel secure while we were away. I would hire her again in a heartbeat-if you need a compassionate and dependable person, Vivian is your best bet!”
“Afiya did a drop-in visit for my cat Lumi, and I could not have asked for better. She kept me fully in the loop the whole time and shared pictures, which I loved. It instantly put me at ease knowing Lumi was in good hands. Would definitely book again!”
“She did so great taking care of my three cats and keeping me updated. She was even able to give my very shy cat his inhaler after a couple of days which we thought was going to be impossible! Will definitely use her again :)”
“Hanna was a fantastic sitter for Slinky. Very responsive in texts and came through for me in a last-minute situation. Lots of details about the stay and pictures. Highly recommend and I hope I can use her again in the future!”

Charlotte is an incredible cat sitter who truly demonstrates her love and respect for animals through her personality. She put us at ease and helped us focus on enjoying our vacation. Although we initially planned to interview three different sitters, we hired Charlotte on the spot and cancelled the other appointments after meeting her. With each visit, she sent us high-quality photos and videos of our three kitties, showing how relaxed they were in her care. Even our incredibly shy boy cat came out to hang out with her. We feel truly blessed to have found Charlotte and will definitely use her services again in the future!
Marie took care of our two cats while we’re out of the country for 10 days. She was fantastic as always, making sure to send lots of photos, updates, and spending lots of time with our babies. Plus going above and beyond with extra household things and cleaning up messes. Thank you so much Marie!
Kseniia was amazing! Communication was excellent throughout the trip, with regular updates and photos that provided real peace of mind. My senior cat has separation anxiety and occasionally goes outside the litter box, but Kseniia handled everything perfectly, keeping the litter boxes spotless and thoughtfully placing and replacing potty pads in his usual spots. It was clear that a great deal of care and attention went into every visit. Highly recommend, and I will definitely be booking with Kseniia again for future trips!
This is the second time Sebastian has cared for our cat, and we can’t recommend him highly enough! He’s incredibly communicative, sends great updates and photos, and spends quality time with our cat during each visit. It’s clear he genuinely cares, and we always feel at ease knowing our cat is in such good hands. We’d happily book with him again!
When I met Barbara, I could tell that she really likes animals. Both of my cats sensed it too because they walked right up to her to say hello. I knew right away they'd be in good hands. Barbara showed up every day when she said she would. She followed the instructions I left to a tee. Barbara is great!
