“Maya was fantastic. She took such good care of our 3 kitties for 2 weeks. She went out of her way to make sure they were ok during the snowstorm and cold. She gives them attention (plays, grooms etc), and ensures they eat, have fresh water, checks their wellbeing. (Also the litterboxes were well maintained - she even put the garbage out) We are impressed - her compassionate care and love for our furries shows through everything she did — in addition she looks after your house (all is clean, plants were checked, etc…)- (we had water issue she reported immediately and helped clear) . She communicates frequently and keeps you posted — in a nutshell if you look for someone for your pet — we would not hesitate to recommend Maya and certainly hope she is available for our next trip. We could not be happier.”
“Karen’s did a wonderful job watching my two kids- I mean my two cats ?! My cats loved her after the very first day and she made sure they ate and played, and was communicating with me throughout the weekend. My cats are shelter cats with abuse history, so I was very pleased with how quickly they warmed up to her. I would absolutely recommend her to a friend.”
“Thank you for helping out in a tight situation and adding this late additional visit. Really appreciate your contact with me; moreso your rapport and care for my pets. Wonderful, kind, incredibly professional. Highly recommend.”
“Elizabeth consistently exceeded expectations! She took the time to keep my boys happy, took them onto my balcony every day, and was so thorough that my separation anxiety was gone despite being in another country. An added bonus is all the pictures she takes-I definitely have saved some of the super silly ones and they make me happy!”
“Curtis was a great caretaker for our two cats: Dropped by everyday, administered pills, changed food, water, and litter in addition to play time! Heavily recommend, he's a great sitter!”
“Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!”
About: Hello, I’m Sabrina! I have always been involved in animal care spaces. I volunteered as a behavior volunteer for several years at Friends For Life Animal Shelter, where I learned about canine and feline behavior. I am certified in canine and feline CPR and first aid through PetTech! Your furry friend is always safe with me! Last summer, I worked as a canine care attendant at The Barking Muse where I walked dogs, monitored day care, facilitated activities and basic training, and cared for our boarders! I’d love to continue my pet care journey with you! Currently, I’m a college student home for the summer, so my schedule is wide open! I’d love to fill my time by providing quality pet care! I always meet the pet where they’re are at. I will never force a pet to anything it doesn’t want to and believe in understanding their behavior and boundaries. Through this method I’ve successfully addressed anxiety in both cats and dogs and formed meaningful connections!
“Ashley took wonderful care of my two cats, one of whom is diabetic and requires insulin injections every 12 hours. Ashley was very reliable and always on time. She gave detailed updates and took cute pictures of my babies. She also was willing to water my newly planted trees. We are so glad to have found such an excellent sitter!”
“Emily was very reliable and responsive, and great with my cats. She went out of her way to spend time getting to know them and making sure they were happy. I really enjoyed the updates and photos every day.”
“It’s so nice to know Tara is keeping an eye on everything when we travel. She gives us a friendly report each day and lets us know if she sees anything that needs our attention. It puts my mind at ease knowing she’s there.”
“Victoria was amazing. I was told by my building leasing office that she was very good with Delta, and very professional. She made sure to send photos, and updates. It’s easy to say that Victoria will be our go-to dog sitter. Delta had a great time, and I had peace of mind allowing Victoria to come into my apartment and take care of Delta while I am away at work.”
“Rachel is wonderful! She accommodated my request for booking with minimal advance notice. She sent me great feedback and photos of her visits with my pets and I could tell when I got home that they got lots of love and attention. She alleviated all of my anxiety/guilt leaving my pets at home. I will absolutely request her next time I need a sitter and would recommend her to anyone in need of drop in services!”
“Christine was so kind and generous with our three dogs! She was always on time and went the extra mile to help clean up a pillow catastrophe from our very anxious lab! We will definitely be asking her to watch our babies again!”
“Ashleigh was amazing! Each visit she provided pictures and updates on how our cat was doing. She did really well with our cat’s insulin injections! We will definitely use her again for future visits.”
“Trevor was absolutely wonderful! He put so much care into updating us and sending us photos! He made our cat very comfortable and was sure to play with her lots. He allowed us to enjoy our vacation without being anxious about her. Would absolutely have Trevor do drop in visit again!”
“Mina was caring and attentive to Otto, making us feel comfortable being away. She sent pictures of Otto from her visits. She did everything we requested to care for our cat and our house in our absence. I would feel completely comfortable hiring her again during our travel!”
About: I am very attentive to my fur babies I have a 11 year old and a 1 year old their names are Milo and King. King needs a little more TLC he has congestive heart failure and has to take heart meds for the rest of his life. Milo is a ball of energy he keeps me on my feet he love to play run and belly rubs. Dog grooming is also available if needed for your furry fur baby. Pet care is very important to me. Proper pet care is the basis of responsible pet ownership. Caring for an animal can help make you feel needed and wanted, and take the focus away from your problems. I have 2 small dogs who loves company King is old and set in his ways so he doesn’t play much just bark and Milo is the social one he gets along with all dogs. There is a dog bark near by that I take him to so he can run jump and play with other fur babies
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and understand the care, attention, and patience they need to stay happy and healthy. Through caring for my own dogs over the years, I have experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and recognizing when a dog may need extra attention or care. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to providing a safe, loving environment while your pet is in my care. I will treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet's care. I enjoy being active and love taking dogs on long walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I will work to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and following each pet's individual needs and routines. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and, with owner permission, can take friendly and social dogs to local dog parks for additional exercise and enrichment. I will provide plenty of attention, affection, and updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you're away.

Josh is the best! He agreed to meet and get to know our pets first which took the worry away knowing he was kind thoughtful and responsible. He was flexible with the schedule and so good with our rather anxious dog. Our dog actually seems calmer was brushed and well cared for while we were away! and he is even leaving food in his bowl after Josh suggested he may need more food cause he seemed hungry and so we said ok and learned Josh was right maybe that was all it was cause now he doesn’t inhale it in 5 minutes! He also was flexible when I had a last minute thing to do and needed his services for the weekend. Can’t say enough great things really glad I tried this service and was lucky enough to get Josh!
From the first message to our scheduled meet and greet, Mina impressed me with her friendliness, flexibility, and genuine love for cats. She arrived on time, asked great questions, and let my cats dictate the pace of their meeting - no rushing or forced interactions. By the end of just one meeting, my shy and anxious cats allowed her to come close and engage with them. I feel fully reassured and confident that Mina will take great care of them while I am traveling. Highly recommend!
Jessie was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. I received updates throughout the visit that were very appreciated as well, and most importantly, the cats were in good spirits. I will certainly reaching out to Jessie again if I find myself in need of a pet sitter.
Rini is fabulous! She looked in on our cat while we were away for most of a week. We received updates at every visit that included a short video and photos. Delilah can be reached at ”spicy” at times and Rini was patient with her, eventually winning her over. She also brought in our mail and packages. Will definitely use her again!
Maya was great with our dogs! She was prompt, reliable, and always showed up right when she was supposed to. She took the time to sit with them, comfort them, and made sure they felt safe and loved while we were away. They loved her. We’ll definitely use her again!
It seems that Karenna did a good job feeding my cat. He gets nervous and hides under the sofa and table while I am away as pictures from Karenna showed. He did like Karenna when she came for a Meet and Greet. He came out from under the table and let her pet him a little bit. I would definitely use Karenna again, if she was available.
