“My kitty Stella is well cared for when I’m out of town, and thanks to the daily photos and updates Melanie sends I can clearly see that Melanie and Stella have hit it off and Stella loves her play and treat time with Melanie!”


“Stacie is a pleasure to work with! She was fantastic with my new puppy, Crouton. She's incredibly accommodating and communicative. I felt absolutely in her, and she did not disappoint. Highly recommend!”


“Carla is a dream come true!! She is always coming through for our cat Simon and giving us the sweetest updates and pictures. Thank you so much for putting our minds at ease while we are away ❤️”


“Always a reliable choice. Goes above and beyond. I never have to worry knowing Jordan is taking care of my Olive ☺️ absolutely recommend if she’s not already all booked up!”


“Julianna was great! Such a lovely person and really easy to communicate with. She completed daily reports and sent photos, and overall took great care of my cat, cleaning the litter box, playing with her, and making sure she had food and water. I felt like my cat had great care! I would definitely recommended her to anyone and will contact her again if needed.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my family, watching neighborhood friends’ dogs, and now have a dog of my own (Maggie). Maggie gets along with almost every dog and generally leaves those that stay with us alone. I’m happy to do meet and greets to make sure Maggie and your dog are comfortable! I've been watching my parents' large golden doodle regularly and have a yard to accommodate more. I work from home so I am easily able to accommodate walking and feeding schedules. I am happy to sleep at a clients’ house as long as my dog can join. I have a fenced in yard that is easy to take dogs out for quick breaks but my neighborhood is also very walkable for dogs.

“Ella was amazing! She kept my cat happy and healthy while I was away, following all my instructions and giving her a pill everyday with no problems. I got daily updates and pictures and knew my cat was in good hands. Would not hesitate to book with Ella again as she exceeded my expectations!”


“Jeanmarie was an excellent cat sitter while we were out of town! She was always on time and sent updates daily, which was much appreciated. We felt very comfortable with her watching our cats and we would definitely recommend her services and will book her for any future cat sitting needs!”


“Julie was outstanding! She took great care of our dog, she is very attentive to detail and followed every instruction we gave her (and there were lots of instructions). She was very flexible with us and was always reachable when we needed to contact her. You can really tell that Julie truly loves animals and enjoys taking care of pets! Our dog loves Julie and is always very happy and well taken care of when we return. Thank you Julie! HIGHLY recommend this sitter!”


“Andre was the perfect sitter for our two cats! He did everything we asked, was incredibly attentive and caring, proactively offered to do additional things to make our cats happier, and left very detailed updates and plenty of pictures for every visit. He left no question that we can count on him for future drop-ins.”


“As a first time visit, Scott was wonderful and we're looking forward to him taking care of our girl for a longer visit. Scott was calm and generous in taking good care of our newly adopted Aussie mix. Thanks so much!”



“Stacy was wonderful with my cat, Sophie, while I was on vacation. She's friendly, caring, reliable and quick to respond. I received messages and photos with every visit, allowing me to relax and enjoy my time away, knowing Sophie was doing well. I arrived home to a tidy home and a happy cat and I would definitely call upon Stacy in the future. :)”


About: I always had dogs growing up and I would often puppy sit for friends. I recently lost my twelve year old pitty, Bella. I would love an opportunity to hang with furry friends. I work full-time, typical Monday - Friday from 9-5 and some Saturdays in Decatur. I am available in the evenings and some overnights during the weekend. Making sure they have their basic needs with food, water, and bathroom breaks. Lots of playtime, walks, or cuddles depending on the needs of your fur baby.
