Charlii was amazing during the 3 weeks she house sat for us and our 3 pets. She sent daily updates and pictures/videos and took terrific care of both our animals and our home. She is calm and sweet, and extremely communicative. This was truly the best house/pet sitting experience we had. We couldn't recommend her more!

Melina has watched our puppies (and cat) several times now, and she is always such a joy to work with! Prompt, professional, kind, and most importantly-the animals are so happy to see her! Makes it much easier to be away when we have to travel.

Jasmine was great -- really calm and patient with my anxious boi. She even bagged up all the fluff from his crate bed when he decided to destroy it! Thanks again!

Sophie did a fantastic job sitting for our house, two dogs, 6 chickens and many plants! She's a great communicator and enthusiastic pet lover. She sent daily dog photos and kept the house so clean it was hard to tell anyone had been there. I will highly recommend her for house and pet sitting!

There aren’t enough words to express just how attentive and amazing Quishu is: Positive, dynamic personality with an ability to get zen when needed. She’s the kind of personality our beagles need. She followed all our doggie care and home instructions, it was such peace of mind. She sent frequent photos and videos which showed us that our adopted and often timid beagles trusted her, felt safe with her and were actually being their true goof ball selves. Most sitters think they’ll try to “fix” their issues which never works and creates a tense dynamic, but Qishu didn’t appear to judge us for all our instructions and expectations. She respected our requested level of care and the beagles and her bonded. Thank you Qishu!!

Kenyatta bailed me out of a last-minute cancellation from another sitter; she responded within minutes to my initial request, was super communicative and easy to work with, showed up when she said she would, did everything I needed her to do, and sent me pics of my pets each day. House was every bit as clean as I left it and she even left calming music on when she left so my dog wouldn’t be home alone in silence. Really wonderful experience! Thank you Kenyetta I will hire you again!

Rutherford is hands down the best cat sitter I've ever had! Not only is he reliable and responsible, but his love and understanding of animals truly shine through. He has a special bond with my cat, and it's clear he loves him. He goes above and beyond, taking time to play with him, ensuring he feels loved and entertained while I'm away. What's even more impressive is that Rutherford can handle giving medication without any issues, which is a huge relief. I trust him completely with my pet and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated cat sitter!

Christine stayed at our house and watched our senior dog for 10 days. She handled all of his quirks in stride, gave him his medication each morning, and checked in with us regularly. Our dog is 15 years old and does not like change. Christine was able to adapt to how he was doing to keep him comfortable and happy. It was so reassuring to have her taking care of our old guy, so we could enjoy our vacation.

Katrina did a fantastic job dog sitting my pup! I had a great feeling from the moment I first saw her interacting with him, she was very gentle and patient and he was immediately drawn to her. This was my first time leaving him alone for an extended period, and Katrina put my mind at ease through frequent photo updates and check ins. They went to so many gorgeous places that it seemed like he got to have a bit of a vacation, too! Katrina followed all instructions and I came back to a clean apartment and a happy, relaxed pup. 10/10 will definitely be booking again!

Kristine is wonderful! She was very punctual, prepared, respectful, kind and has a calming presence. Our dog can be skittish and shy & Kristine was great in taking care of her, giving her just enough space and attention. She took Daisy for a walk, fed her, and gave us updates with photos. She stayed in our home for a few hours and left it in the same clean condition it was in. We would definitely book Kristine again & are so happy we found her!

About: I've loved all animals my entire life. I've been a veterinary technician for 24 years, so I am very capable and knowledgeable. I've mostly worked in emergency and critical care. I'm willing to do it all. From basic pet care to medical treatments. I have experience with cats, dogs, reptiles, and small mammals. My schedule is very open right now. I have 2 cats of my own, and they are my world. I have retired from the veterinary field, at least for the time being. Rest assured that with me, your pets are in the best possible hands. I tend to care for all animals as if they are my own and I truly love them. I am a very quiet person myself, and I have a calming effect on animals. I will spend every possible minute that I can making them feel calm and secure. I am very experienced with animals in the veterinary field so I am willing to do it all! Unfortunately I cannot allow pets to stay in my home as my cats would object. But I am willing to stay in the pet owner's home! I'm also willing and capable to give medication.
