“Christine is always so communicative and does a great job with our two cats! They even greet her at the door, which is rare for our shy orange boy. We definitely recommend Christine.”
“Jessica sent photos of suki daily and seemed very well cared for. She had plenty of food and water and was in a good mood so I know she took good care of her”
“Jasmeen did a great job caring for my cat over a long weekend. I received regular updates and photos which was reassuring while I was away. Highly recommended. I would be delighted to work with her again anytime i travel.”
“Tricia was terrific and we would definitely hire her again. She was great with our Cavapoos, listened carefully to our instructions and was very professional. She is a dog person for sure and knows about their behaviors and cues. We were very pleased with her service.”
“Katie was great! She obviously loves dogs, was excited to meet ours, and asked good questions about their care. She had no trouble with our requirements. She was always responsive through the app, and flexible with timing when we needed it. We appreciated that she checked in with us, and we loved the photos she sent through the app!”

I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Zahudy was great. She was very attentive our dog, Oliver, and communicated in detail with us every step of the way. Oliver behaved as if we never left home and I think Zahudy played a major role in him doing so well.”
About: Hey there! I’ve been pet-sitting friends’ dogs and cats for years. I’m the person at the party that hangs out with your dog near the snacks 😄 Open to overnight stays and also walks/check ins, or local hikes if your pet wants a little adventure. I’m a healthcare admin professional, currently working a hybrid work-from-home schedule. I’m available mid-day through the evenings, and occasionally weekends for overnight stays as well! I am able to travel a bit to petsit your fur friend where they’ll be most comfortable. Can follow any rules you have for your pets, just let me know!
“Aik was the perfect cat sitter! Very friendly, was proactive and took initiative in the care, and was very communicative. He also took very good care of my home and cleaned up all messes. Would definitely work with Aik again, and my cat loved him too! They can tell who good people are. Thanks Aik!”
“Heading back from a business trip and feel so relaxed knowing Maria helped take care of our big girl. She was on-time for each drop-in and provided great notes and pictures. All very much appreciated since this was my first time away. I have another business trip coming up and after I get done writing this review, I will be checking on her availability to help again! You're now stuck with us, Maria! :)”
“Denise is fantastic! We have relied on Denise many times now and she consistently does a great job. She’s smart, great with and knowledgeable about pets, thinks outside the box, and reliable because of those reasons and more. I recently took a trip where I had little to no phone coverage, and I knew I could count on her to take care of any issues that arose if she was not able to reach me. I look forward to relying on Denise again.”
About: I grew up with labs and lab mixes. I have trained dogs previously. I spent several years volunteering with Guide Dogs for the Blind. Animals have always been very comfortable with me. I am currently looking for work, so I have a flexible schedule. I am able to be available as needed. I understand people's lives are busy, so I try to be flexible for the dog/cat's needs. I respect their home. I treat their home as if it's my own. I respect their fur baby's space. I would never harm an animal, especially one that's part of the family.
About: I’m a loving cat mom of 5+ years with a lifetime of experience caring for cats of all ages. I’m competent in simple dog training and am open to dog-sitting/walking, but cats are by far my specialty. I have proven experience building trust and bonding quickly with new cats, even those with behavioral issues or shy demeanors. I’m a teacher looking for extra summer work, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your furry friends June-August! I can make up to 5 visits on weekends and 3 visits on select weekdays. I will be nannying part time and will be available before 2pm and after 6pm on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. Please message me with any questions! I am soft, gentle and empathetic with all new pets I meet, especially when I’m entering their safe space! My cat was a mean, shy little boy when I adopted him at 7 months; but now at 5 years he’s happy and comfy as can be. I hope to provide this same experience for your pets, whether it be a short drop in or an overnight visit.
About: I am attentive, caring and love to shower pets with affection. Will make sure to follow any directions you might have for your fur baby. Both myself and my wife work during the day but are available during the evenings. Our soon to be 18 year old son can watch them too under our supervision. We have a cat who can keep your fur baby company. We live in an apartment so usually keep pets inside unless walking a dog

Reanne was great with my two cats! She spent a lot of time playing and engaging with the brave one, and gave the shy one the space he needed to come out on his own terms. She also sent me lots of updates and photos. I felt very secure knowing she was taking such good care of them. Highly recommend!
Aik was the perfect cat sitter! Very friendly, was proactive and took initiative in the care, and was very communicative. He also took very good care of my home and cleaned up all messes. Would definitely work with Aik again, and my cat loved him too! They can tell who good people are. Thanks Aik!
My shy, fussy cats really warmed up to Maria! She came morning and evening for 12 days while I was away and during that time she brought them out of their shell. Not only that but she cleaned the litter box wach time and washed the food dishes and cleaned the feeding mat each time. So adding it all up: quality socializing and play time plus cleaning and feeding, My kitties and I give Maria 5 stars!
This was our first time having Jasmeen watch our cats, and she did an amazing job! Right from the first day, we could tell they were in good hands. She has a ton of experience and shared great tips and tricks for their care. We loved getting daily messages and photo updates. We will definitely be asking Jasmeen to take care of our cats moving forward!
Yujie took amazing care of my two 6-year old cats while I was away. Her energy is calming and my cats liked her right away from our initial meet and greet. They were very happy to have her come visit :). Yujie gave detailed written updates each day and was flexible with the timing of the drop in visits. Great communication and professional! She also sent so many cute pictures, a video, and played with my cats and spent time with them! I definitely recommend Yujie for drop in visits for cats!!
Andrea did an amazing job caring for our kitties, Leya and Simon! We really appreciated how thorough she was and how carefully she followed all of our instructions. She spent lots of quality playtime with Simon, which he absolutely loved, and gave both cats wonderful care and attention while we were away. Andrea was also very respectful of our home, which gave us extra peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter!
👍 👍 👍 ⭐ ⭐ Tricia is very communicative, and sends great updates and photo updates of the dog. She she takes better pictures than I do. She works really well with Nala, who is a very particular German Shepherd and requires a firmer hand but also a personal touch . I've been rebooking her several times and will definitely be doing so in the future. Thanks!
Jae did a wonderful job watching our two cats! We really appreciated her availability over the holidays. She provided great daily updates and photos of our two cats while we were away. Jae is reliable and communicative and I’d definitely recommend her as a sitter.
