“I was delighted, my cats too, with Carolina! She was kind and thoughtful. Even my timid cat, Princess, came out to greet Caroline during our first ,meeting. She added many special touches. When I came home, I enjoyed her note and the chocolate candy covered in bright colors! She even washed all the plates and spoons used to feed my cats. Further, she washed out the empty cat food cans! The liter boxes were nicely cleaned out.. My cats told me they would very much like Caroline to take care of them again 😸😽”


“Catherine was such a relief after a number of bad experiences with cat sitters who forgot to come or forgot the care needed for our cats. Catherine is very professional, left simple and timely notes about our kittie’s status after each visit, and left us feeling assured of their well-being. I will definitely be looking to book Catherine again!”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Caroline provided for our cat, Stella. Stella is an extremely shy and cautious cat who usually hides from new people, but Caroline’s calm and gentle approach quickly earned her trust. It was clear from the regular updates and photos that Stella felt safe and comfortable in her care. Caroline went above and beyond to make sure Stella’s routine was followed and gave her the space she needed to feel secure. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our sweet (but timid!) kitty was in such good hands. We highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a thoughtful, patient, and reliable pet sitter - especially if you have a shy or sensitive pet. Thank you, Caroline!”

“Nicole was amazing! She dropped in on our cat who warmed up to her really fast! She fed and cared for her exactly how we instructed and played with her too! Loved her videos and photos too. Recommend Nicole for anyone’s pet sitting needs!”

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life and, for the first time, find myself without any pets. I have an abundance of ear scratches, belly rubs, and snuggles just waiting for pets who are missing their people. My husband and I both work from home with flexible schedules so are available for frequent potty breaks, walks, and playtime. We also have two children, 8 and 11, who both grew up with dogs and cats and are experienced and comfortable with both. Your pet will get lots of playtime and snuggles! We have a big house that pets are free to explore and where they can make themselves at home. We also have a unfenced 3-acre yard with lots of exciting smells that dogs can explore on leash. We live on a cul-de-sac in a residential area perfect for safe walks. Our house also abuts a bridle path that provides a lovely walk in the woods, including splashes in a creek if so desired. If you are looking for someone who loves dogs and is responsible and loving to take care of your pups when you're not around, please reach out! Please note: 1. All dogs must be fully potty trained, neutered or spayed, vaccinated, and on flea and tick preventative. All pets must be comfortable with children - for everyone's safety and comfort, I don't accept aggressive dogs. 2. Drop off time: 7:30 am to 6:00 pm Pick up time: 7:30 am to 9:00 pm 3. Things to bring: a. Bed or blanket or crate, whichever your pet prefers. b. Food and treats, along with feeding instructions. Please bring 2-3 extra days' worth of food in case of delays. Any unused food and treats will be returned. c. Any medications or supplements for your pet. Please bring prescription medications in their original containers along with clear written instructions. d. For a dog, a collar with name tag and phone number and a harness if used for walks. e. Any special toys.
“Dymond was wonderful with my cat! Very responsive, caring, and easy to communicate with. This was my first time leaving my cat since adopting her and I felt very comfortable doing so knowing Dymond would be checking in on her!”

“Pilar was fantastic with our 3 cats for 10 days! She came over for a meet and greet and was very attentive to all their needs. We felt very comfortable and confident with Pilar watching our cats and taking care of our home so respectfully. She was able to administer daily medication for one of our boys, which is a huge plus. We highly recommend Pilar and will be booking her again for future trips!”

“Leticia jumped in in an emergency when my original sitter got sick. She did a great job getting my elderly cat to eat and come out of hiding to say hi. She must be a cat whisperer!”
“Brianne did a wonderful job taking care of my visually impaired elderly cat. She took time to comfort him while we were gone and provided detailed updates. We would definitely hire her again.”

“I’ve booked with Jennifer twice and she was always been easy to work with and my senior cat enjoys when she comes to visit. She sends lots of pictures with each check in and is very considerate.”

“Jessica was a great pet sitter for our cat Apollo. She is very reliable and responsive, and sent great pictures of Apollo every day. Definitely made traveling for the holidays worry-free!”

“Jina is awesome! We were referred to Jina when our regular cat sitter was unavailable and would definitely work with her again. She spent a lot of time playing with and petting our cats, making sure medications were given, cleaned the litter boxes regularly and asked questions as they came up. She also brought in an extremely heavy package that was delivered early which was totally not expected but always appreciated. Thank you so much Jina! It’s so nice relaxing on vacation knowing our cats are well taken care of”

“Took amazing care of my cats, and even helped manage my apartment flooding while I was away and unable to get home; which was way beyond anything that was ever expected of her. She was great, Even my shy cat snuggled right up to her! Can't thank her enough!!!”

“Repeat customer - My cats couldn’t be happier with Don! He truly is a pleasure to work with and is a great sitter. I travel a lot for work and it is so reassuring to know my cats are so well looked after and happy while I’m away!”

About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years and have had my own kitty for the past 5. I started pet sitting when I was 15, and since then I’ve looked after cats of all ages and personalities. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pets when you are gone, so I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I have a very open and flexible schedule right now, which means I can easily adjust to your cat’s routine and needs. Whether that’s daily drop-ins, longer visits, or last-minute bookings, I’ll be available and reliable. Caring for cats is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m happy to make it a priority. When I care for pets in their home, I treat both your cat and your space with the same respect I give my own. I make sure your cat feels safe and comfortable by following their routine with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and cuddles if they want them. I also keep your home tidy and send updates with photos so you always know how things are going. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your cat happy and cared for.

“Would don't hesitate to leave our furry boy knowing that Mary is there to check in on him. She's absolutely fantastic. She gives our cat all the love and attention he desires, keeps his litter box area clean, and tops up with our finicky amounts of food & water. Communication is top notch, as are the little anecdotes to tide us over while we're away! Thank you, Mary!”


About: I have been a dog sitter and owner for the last 15 years, and absolutely adore any dog I come across. I have a 12 year old Maltese, but I have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, as well as dogs with medical issues. I just graduated from Emory University Nursing School and have time on my hands before I begin my new job. I have a free schedule and every day of the week is a possibility in my current situation. I am a incredibly active and energized person who would be willing to walk your dog as much as possible! I am a Certified Nurse Aide, so caring for any living being comes naturally to me, and I would relish in the opportunity to care for your beloved dog. Can't wait to meet your dog soon! I am a nurse so my schedule is flexible, I am off a lot during the week for 3-4 days stretches and able to change my schedule at any time I have a fenced yard, a dog proofed home, and will always be with the dog. It is just me in my environment and I strive to keep it clean and safe at all times
