“Kari is the best sitter! She was friendly and kind! I was so happy to have her around with my kitties when I’m away. Anyone is looking for a sitter for your fur babies, Kari is your best choice!!”
“Once again Emily took wonderful care of our cat and rabbit. She is flexible and dependable. We had no worries leaving the kritters in Emily’s care. Thank you Emily!!”
“Jacqueline is an absolutely wonderful sitter! She took excellent care of our little girl while we were away. It was Scarlett's first time without her humans, and considering she has a tough past, we were concerned about how she would feel. Jacqueline made sure that Scarlett felt safe and comfortable, offering kindness, soft words, and continued patience. She was always on time and made sure to send us photos and updates 🙂 We would definitely recommend Jacqueline and hope that she would want to sit for Scarlett again in the future 💖 Thanks again, Jacqueline!”
“We had Andrea cat sit our 3 boys for a couple days. She kept in touch throughout those few days always making sure our cats were doing well. She sent lots of pictures and detailed reports on her visits. She gave them so much love and attention. We were so happy and impressed with her and will be using her to cat sit whenever we need. Could not recommend her enough 😃”
“I have been in the hospital with my service dog. Holly has been able to make time in her schedule to drop by throughout the day to walk my service dog and give a potty break. She also reminds me if I have given her food and meds. She makes detailed notes on changes in behaviour. My dog developed runny poops. Since Holly was on the ball and reported it to me, I was able to get medication before the long weekend. All is well.”
“Jade was amazing! We booked her in last minute and she was great! She made the time to come meet our cats before her visits and was super responsive throughout the week. Would highly recommend if you need someone local.”
“Jonathan was very easy to communicate and work with for this boarding . Very flexible ,helped Murphy enjoy his walks whilst we were away. Follows a very step wise approach which is very convenient and pleasing to deal with .”
“My (occasionally) reactive dog was at ease right away with Emma when she came for a meet & greet. She listened to all my instructions and asked great questions. We will definitely book her for petcare soon!”
“I highly recommend Sam. She was absolutely fantastic dropping in to take care of my 4 cats, including administering the one cat's daily inhaler for asthma. Sam was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and thorough in letting me know how everyone was doing. Sam made my babies and myself very comfortable and confident in being very well taken care of. I look forward to having Sam back in future!”
“Cassandra has been on time she has not missed a single visit I find her to be trustworthy and above all has common sense which seems to be in short supply these days. I am going to be using more of her services in the coming weeks.. there's not too many people I would trust in my home but I feel comfortable with Cassandra.”
“Charlene was wonderful. Our family took a two week vacation and Charlene took the time to ensure our cat, Eli, was happy, fed, and comfortable. The pictures each day were also a nice touch! Thank you, Charlene!”
“Anna was a great pet sitter. She checked in on 2 cats for a week, making sure they had food, cleaned their litter and sent us excellent updates throughout the week. Even responding long after the check was done because I missed her original messages. Thank you for taking great care of our babies!”
About: Extremely experienced and have been taking care of animals for over 15 years! I treat each pet like a family member with unconditional love <3 I am currently at home full time, so I will have unlimited time to spend with each and every fur baby! My schedule is very open; available for boarding almost 7 days a week! Caring for animals isn't just a job to me; it is natural and part of my every day life! Great size family home with lots of room and comfy furniture for them to feel right at home. I have a fully fenced in back yard, offering lots of play time outside. Awesome neighborhood for ample walks as well. I do have two friendly cats; both love and are used to dogs. If the need for crating is requested, I do have one available.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have owned a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and bunnies. Growing up, my parents bred dogs, which gave me hands-on experience caring for puppies from an early age. I helped with their daily care, socialization, and basic training, learning the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has its own unique personality and needs. Whether it's playtime, walks, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. As a nurse, I have large 5 days periods of time off, during which I would be available to provide care at any time. Following this, I work 4 days in a row and as a result, my schedule is not super consistent in that my days off vary. Despite this, I am super flexible and willing to coordinate with people’s schedule during the 5 day window. My entire home is currently pet-proofed for my bunny, who would go in her x-pen during home visits. All baseboards are tapped and all cord and wires are protected with coverings to ensure the rabbit’s safety. I am also very careful about the plants and flowers I bring in the environment due to potential toxicities. As a nurse, I also have medical knowledge which may be applicable at times. I will always doing everything within my power to ensure the safety and comfort of all animals in my care.
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and know how much they brighten a day. Whether it’s walks, play, or just company, I make sure they’re cared for and happy. Being a student gives me the flexibility to fit into your pup’s routine and keep things easy for both of you. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Fridays, most of Wednesday during the day, and weekends too. That makes it easy for me to fit in regular walks or quick check-ins when you need them. I take walks seriously and always put safety first, whether that means sticking to familiar routes, keeping a close eye on traffic, or matching your dog’s pace and energy. I’ll follow any instructions you give so you know your pup is in good hands.
“Collin was so flexible and responsive when we needed care for our dog and cat at the last minute! We felt very comfortable that they were in good hands, and we look forward to having Collin pet-sit for us in the future.”
About: I have two pet dogs back home. Always had kittens in the house growing up. We recently adopted a 2 month old frenchie who is still being trained. She likes everyone and everything so she can be with other dogs and pets, no problem. I can do drop ins, house sitting and take your pets for walks. I enjoy being around pets and look forward to meeting as many of them. I work on the weekdays and i am available on the weekends. My husband works from home and is available on most days. We commit as a couple to take care of your pets. I understand how some pets are strictly indoors and am really careful about it. Safety of the pet will be number 1 priority. A safe and comfortable companionship will be provided.

Kari truly goes above and beyond. As soon as we have a vacation booked I book her services as I know 10000% that she will treat our cats with so much love and care. From her detailed reports and photo updates to her cleanliness and attention to detail when she visits, I have zero worries in the world and absolutely nothing but positive things to say about her. Our boys love her and I know your pets will thank you for introducing this new friend to them, too. Thank you so much for the incredible peace of mind, yet again, Kari!
