“Lorri was great! She gave regular updates and photos. She did everything that was asked and even vacuumed up around the litter box area. I would definitely work with Lori again!”
“Jenna did an incredible job looking after our animals. She was very attentive during her meet and greet and made sure our dog and cat had the same care as if we were there with them. She does a great job of taking and sending photos while you’re away so you know your animals are in good hands!”
“Sydney and Mike were very accommodating and understanding of Oscar’s unique personality and needs. Their daily updates and photos were very reassuring that time was being spend with him to ensure his needs were met. The sketch of Oscar left for our return home was such a sweet surprise! I would absolutely book again in the future- thank you Sydney and Mike!!”
“Hayley and Lucy are amazing! They are friendly, responsible, and very accommodating. They took care of my baby cats exactly as I asked and went above and beyond. They left very detailed care notes and sent lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind! My cats also got along really well with them. I would definitely recommend them and will absolutely book with them again!”
“Chris took great care of our cat Nova over the holidays! We met in advance so I could give him the tour, walk through the instructions and he got to meet our cat before I went away. He was communicative and made an effort to befriend her and give her attention.”
“Keisha was amazing! Great communication, left the place perfectly near and tidy, and was great with Zoey and seemed very understanding of cat behaviour. Will definitely go to her again next time we need a sitter :)”
“Kate visited my two cats for a long weekend and was great with them. Kate was responsive, flexible and attentive to both cats needs, including giving medication. I don’t feel so guilty leaving town for the weekend knowing I can just ask Kate to stop by.”
“Courtney was great with our two cats! She followed the directions left for her and gave our cat her daily medication. We were able to enjoy our trip stress free knowing she was stopping by and giving us informed updates. Thanks again Courtney we will be sure to book you for future needs!”
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I can remember! My background working on farms taught me to stay calm under pressure and handle animals of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s a stubborn puppy or a cat that needs a little extra space, I’m highly observant of animal body language. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’m looking forward to helping you and your pet! I work remotely in the South End, giving me great flexibility for walks and house sitting. Since I'm home throughout the day, I can provide a high level of supervision and quick responses for any last minute needs. I treat your home with the same care I treat my own. While house sitting, I stay tidy, follow all house rules, and ensure your pet’s environment stays consistent and without stress. I provide detailed updates and photos after every visit or throughout a stay. I’m also happy to handle small household tasks.
“Emily was awesome with our cat while we were away. Great communicator and we could tell our cat was well looked after. Would definitely recommend Emily and would ask her back in the future!”
“Loren was very sweet and took good care of my kitty while I was away on a trip! Loki seemed to be happy upon my return! She was very responsive, gave good updates and spent quality time with Loki, making sure he had his daily brushing and treats! I would recommend Loren!”
“Tamanna and Pramond M. were both a delight to work with. Their care and love for their own cats was evident in how they took care of mine. I would definitely book them again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs all throughout my life, who had varying health issues and required special medical attention occasionally. I have proficient in dog walking, getting the afternoon zoomies out, and administering medication when necessary. My childhood dog is now 12 years old and is dealing with numerous conditions, and I have learned how to care for him and keep him comfortable in his senior life. I’d love to do the same for your dog no matter their age!! I work part time and have a varying schedule that is confirmed a month in advance. It is usually open Monday-Friday, and I am also available Holidays!! I care for my current cat Pekoe as though she is my literal child. She gets all the attention and love in the world, and I am very cautious and aware of any health issues she may present. I volunteer regularly at shelters and adjust my approach to care giving as I learn the attitude and needs of each individual animals. I recognize them as conscious friends who deserve the love, respect, and safety that we treat humans with.
“Thank you Vixie! Vixie was excellent, we have two mini aussies and a cat so it's quite the household and Vixie handled them all excellently!! Sawyer (one of our mini aussies) can be reactive and requires patience when taking her out. Vixie was able to navigate sawyer no problem! I couldn't recommend Vixie more!”
“Jaiden was so good with our cat scout. Scout normally has a hard time adjusting to new places but she was so at home with Jaiden purring and even making biscuits by the second day! Would highly recommend!!”
“Taylor was wonderful! She was communicative and easy to work with, and took great care of our cats while we were away. She even kept my plants alive! I'd absolutely book her again.”

As always, Steph was amazing with my 2 cats while I was away on vacation. One of my cats was recently diagnosed with asthma and Steph is the only sitter I’ve had that she won’t hide from, so I was eternally grateful that she was successfully able to administer her puffer each visit! Having Steph take care of my babies puts me at ease as I know they are well taken care of ☺️
Lucy was such a good cat sitter! Extremely patient and attentive with my shy kitty, super easy to work with, and I really loved the updates and photos that were provided while I was away - it brought a lot of peace of mind. I'll definitely rebook again next time I'm going out of town! :)
Yanzhu was absolutely amazing. She has such a warm and positive energy, and it really showed in how she cared for Lily. Lily loved playing with her and felt completely comfortable, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. When I got home, Lily was relaxed, happy, and clearly well taken care of. Yanzhu also went above and beyond, when I had a concern at home, she stepped in and helped resolve it, which I really appreciated. I truly appreciate her care and attention. I would definitely contact her again anytime I travel and need someone to look after Lily. Highly recommended!
I recently relocated here and had a family emergency that required I fly out as soon as possible. Kate was so accommodating, understanding and kind throughout the process. She provided drop in care for my cats and my dog boarded with her. The photos she sent during the period were a great comfort to me during a difficult time. She has experience caring for both cats and dogs and it was clearly evident. When it came time for my dog to return, I could tell that my dog really bonded with her, which was really good to see. I was a little worried my dog might be anxious and reactive on walks as everything here is new to her but she had even settled down some on walks after she returned. I have no hesitation recommending her pet care services.
Rachel has been amazing!! I had a family emergency and needed to leave quickly and she was able to accommodate me with only one day’s notice. She made a very stressful situation so much better and I am very thankful! I will definitely book her again in the future.
