Drew was great with my “quirky” dogs while I was out of town. She took great care of them. She was on time, provided photos, kept me informed, etc. I would definitely use Drew again in the future.

Maria did a wonderful job caring for my cat while I was away! She is such a kind and calming presence, which I know put my cat at ease without me there. Updates were frequent and very detailed, giving me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend booking with Maria and I for sure will be again!

We needed someone on short notice and Alexandria responded immediately. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and made the process stress-free. She was great with our 8-month-old rescue, Poppy, who’s still adjusting and can be reactive on leash. Alexandria was patient and understanding, handling Poppy thoughtfully. We loved the photos and report card after each visit and would definitely book Alexandria again—Poppy would be happy to see her too!

Jennifer was an excellent cat sitter for Melvin. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Melvin seemed super comfortable and well cared for the entire time, and it was clear she was great with him. Communication was smooth, she was reliable, and I had no complaints at all. I would definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

About: I’ve helped to take care of cats my since I was a young kid and have gotten more experience in caring for dogs over the last few years. I’ve always loved animals, and I am a very meticulous person so I will pay great attention to make sure your pet(s) and home are well cared for. I worked for a few years as a scientist prior to starting medical school last year, so attention to detail is a skill I’ve learned to hone. I’m currently on break from school, so I have a fairly free schedule at the moment. Once my classes start again I’d like to move into something I can do more so in the mornings or evenings, but my schedule will still be more flexible than a typical 9-5. I am a very detail-oriented and meticulous person, so I will pay attention to make sure that your pet and home are safe and secure.

Lily was great with my cat Zoey. She took extra time to make sure Zoey had some company- she brought toys out and played YouTube videos of birds and squirrels for Zoey. My cat is not fond of strangers, but took to Lily.

Tiffanie did an amazing job watching our cat Pekoe while we were away. Pekoe doesn't usually take well to new people, but she warmed up to Tiffanie right away. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, made plenty of time to play with and give affection to Pekoe, and gave us regular and thorough updates with each visit. Would highly recommend Tiffanie as a trustworthy sitter and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Dominique is an exceptional dog sitter! He took amazing care of our large, active dog, managing his energy with ease and ensuring he was happy and well-exercised throughout his stay. Dominique is a fantastic communicator, always prompt and clear in his updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He truly went above and beyond—not only taking excellent care of our pup but also helping out around the house, like taking out the garbage. We couldn’t recommend him more highly and will definitely book him again!

About: I have taken classes in dog behaviors and how they act when they might need a particular action done. I have a NAPPS certification, which is National Association of Professional Pet Sitters that is earned for all small animals, both including dogs and cats. I have had my own very young puppy, so I know how to handle and train them in a gentle manner that they will respond to. I have tons of experience in senior dogs and cats, so I am patient to more slow animals or paying attention to them more and making sure they have what they need. I have an extremely open schedule and can stay over for longer periods of time than most people. I am free almost every single day for hours on end, so finding when I can come over is no trouble. I’m easy to schedule if I need to house sit, and am extremely responsible and willing to stay overnight when needed. I love taking care of animals in their own homes, knowing they’ll feel the most comfortable surrounded by their familiar surroundings. The only thing I care about is that your furry companions are safe and cared for in a way that they don’t feel out of place or missing the love they got before you left them in my care.

Mya was AMAZING! She was so thoughtful and thorough. She offered to come by and meet our kitties before we left, which was so wonderful. She was super attentive to all of our crazy cat parent concerns. She was also super communicative the whole time, and sent us lots of pictures! We have a cat that is super shy and barely comes out for friends or family, let alone strangers, but Mya got her to play and spend time with her. Will definitely be hiring her again and would recommend to anyone looking for a caring sitter!

Maia was absolutely fantastic! She was super communicative and sent a bunch of adorable photos and lengthy notes with updates on my cats. I have two little anxious babies and she was so good about making sure they took their meds and I could see from the photos how relaxed they were around her. When I came home they weren’t even mad at me for being gone! Would 10/10 recommend!

I had a great experience meeting with Fernanda during our meet and greet. She's friendly, professional, and took the time to get to know both me and my cat (even though she was hiding!). I appreciated how thoughtful she was in asking questions about my cat's routine, preferences, and care needs. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals and wants to provide the best possible care. The meet and greet left me feeling confident and comfortable about leaving my cat in her care. I would absolutely recommend Fernanda to other pet parents looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!

A well deserved 5star review! I had an emergency with my cats, when I called her to come help, she arrived incredibly fast. Not only did she handle the urgent issue perfectly, but what really impressed me was how proactive she was. She went above and beyond to take care of my cats. She is incredibly reliable and gave me such peace of mind. I will absolutely reach out to her again next time!
