About: I have grown up with pets my whole life and love to play and walk or even just hang out with them. If you need I am a responsible owner who will take your dog to the park or a long walk! I am still in school and I work part-time but I can definitely work around that. I am available most afternoons and weekends as well. I will take your pet to the dog park or a long walk or just hang out with them if they need company. Whatever is needed!

Tara is a fantastic pet sitter! She took care of my two cats while I was gone for 6 days. She has a warm and friendly personality and is so conscientious. She did lots of extras and made sure the cats were well taking care of. She was comfortable administering medication to one of my cats, which was a great relief for me. I highly recommend Tara.

Esther-Elizabeth did such a great job taking care of my three kitties over the holiday! I have one kitty who needs insulin and one who is shy and she treated them like her own! I’m so glad I found her and would absolutely recommend her as someone who thinks of my pets as family and wants to make sure they’re in good hands. I also felt her rate was very reasonable for the care she provided.

Orianne provided care for my cat for the first time last week while I was out of town. I appreciated that she responded to my request sort of last minute. She was on-time and provided all the services I requested for each visit. She immediately reported an issue when it happened and it was quickly resolved. I would highly recommend Orianne for pet care.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid. Ever since I can remember there have always been pets and animals in and around my family. My family had dogs and cats growing up, I've also had fish, turtles, and geckos. I have some experience (not certified) in dog training, as I trained my current dog with my brother. I am comfortable with dogs of any size, having grown up around larger breeds. I currently work in the evenings, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays. This leaves me free in the mornings and afternoons to walk and take care of pets. I make sure I have all the information I need about whoever I'm looking after. I ask for the owner's preferences with types of walks, length, play, treats, etc. I report any potential issues with the pets to the owners.

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!

This is the second time we have asked Razia to cat sit for us, and she knocks it out of the park every time! She sends such great updates with at least 15 photos every day, and she is very cognizant of letting me know how thimble is doing in every way.

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!
