“Amanda took care of my cat Pumpkin while we were away on a 5-day trip to California, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Pumpkin is extremely shy and usually hides from anyone new, so I was very nervous leaving her. But somehow Amanda made her feel comfortable so quickly, and it was clear Pumpkin really liked and trusted her. That meant a lot to us. Amanda was kind, patient, reliable, and kept us updated, which gave us real peace of mind during our trip. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Daphne did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Nori, while we were away. She provided daily updates with pictures, which made us feel at ease knowing Nori was in good hands. Daphne is a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”

Alice and Marita followed all our care and feeding instructions carefully, and I really appreciated knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you both so much! I’ll definitely be reaching out again next time we’re away. Highly recommend!”

I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
About: Nurturing a Pet Haven: My Journey in Animal Care From the wagging tails of ten dogs—three of whom have crossed the rainbow bridge—to the gentle flutter of bird wings and the serene swims of turtles and fish, my home has been a sanctuary for diverse pets. Each day, I craft nutritious home-cooked meals, tailored to their needs, while meticulously managing their medications and grooming routines. This daily ritual is more than a task; it’s a labor of love, ensuring that every creature in my care thrives and feels cherished. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take sittings on weekdays as I work on weekends. I can sometimes contribute on weekends too. I will be doing the duties at client’s home with complete secure sitting. I can provide valid background check and profile info and with few references.

We are so grateful to Reggie for taking such good care of our two cats while we were away!! Reggie played with our cats and took lots of photos, which made us feel better being away from them. She was very responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely ask Reggie to look after them again!

Chelsea was amazing! She was so kind, reliable, and took such great care of our cats while we were away. She kept us updated with pics and great communications! We came home to two very happy cats! We’d absolutely recommend Chelsea and would happily have her look after them again.
Kayla stepped in last minute when I had to leave for a family emergency and was sweet and professional throughout the whole process. My cat immediately took to her, and I loved the detailed updates I got complete with extensive photos and stories. She listened to my concerns about his health and the timing for his care, and did her best to accommodate me. I will absolutely use her services again.
Carolyn was fantastic!!! I'm already planning to book her again in the near future. She was adaptable to me needing to extend the visits on short notice and very easy to communicate with. She took wonderful care of my kitty and sent lots of detailed updates, photos, and videos. She even went the extra mile to ensure my plants were watered and cat hair vacuumed up prior to my return. Excellent sitter that you won't be disappointed with!!
We were nervous about leaving our Honey with someone else for the first time, but Thammaporn & Kannaphat took all our worries away. They sent us lots of photos and videos, so we always knew our baby was happy and well cared for. It's easy to see that they truly enjoy being around pets. We're so glad we found them and will definitely book again!

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
