We had Aracelis take care of our two cats over Christmas, and she did a wonderful job. She kept them fed, made sure their litter was clean, and checked in on them throughout the holidays. It was great knowing they were well taken care of while we were away. We would highly recommend Aracelis to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!

She went above and beyond, sending tons of photos and videos that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she genuinely loves and cares for my cat like her own. As long as she’s available, I won’t book with anyone else!

Teddy was great with communication and super understanding of what I needed (and my pup needed). She was great with my high energy puppy who needs a lot of attention. I highly recommend her services!

She was so kind and responsive, even with a last-minute request. I felt really comfortable trusting her with everything, and she took excellent care — she even tidied up my place a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch.

Natalie was an amazing pet sitter. She was kind, professional, and really easy to work with from start to finish. My cat warmed up to her right away, which says a lot—he’s usually pretty cautious with new people. She took great care of him, kept me updated, and made the whole experience stress-free. I’d definitely recommend her and will gladly book with her again.

right on time, fed him, changed his pee pad, and took such amazing care and efficiency. Everything was done smoothly and thoughtfully, and my dog was clearly comfortable and happy with her. Her communication was excellent the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and kind dog walker. Thank you so much!

Jimmy is an incredible cat sitter! He's super attentive, kind, and truly goes above and beyond. He sent me plenty of pictures and videos, which made me feel so at ease while I was away. My cat absolutely loved him-he took the time to play and bond with him, not just do the basics. If you're looking for someone reliable who genuinely cares about your pet, Jimmy is the one!

About: I grew up with an 80-pound yellow Lab and have always been comfortable walking and caring for medium to large dogs. I’m attentive to leash behavior, body language, and each dog’s unique personality. As a medical student, I bring a calm, responsible approach to every walk and make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. I’m available primarily for walks and drop-ins during afternoons and evenings; my schedule can be variable and there are some mornings that also work throughout the week! Weekends I can offer up to two walks and more time with your dog. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities during every walk or visit. I closely follow all instructions regarding leashes, feeding, medications, and home rules. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe areas, and ensure pets are always secure. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and focused on maintaining your pet’s normal routine so they feel calm and comfortable.

About: I own a dachshund myself. I am extremely tolerant with different behaviors that different dogs display and I have completed basic obedience training course for myself. I have the right balance between spoiling your pup and teaching them some good habits. I am able to do dog walking anytime of the day, 7 days of the week. Boarding availabilities vary, please message me for boarding availabilities. I live in an apartment building with a dog run inside, I have a balcony in my own apartment. I have a two year old dachshund who loves to play and nap, I can keep dogs in separate rooms or let them play together depending on their personalities.

About: I studied vet med at Iowa State University and have vast experience working at animal shelters. I’ve been trained in pet care, doggy heimlichs and administration of medications. Grew UP with dogs all my life, my mini schnauzer in PR has epilepsy and I know that making sure shes in good hands is always top priority. Your dog(s) will be treated like my own when with me. I’m currently working from home with flexible hours. I’m able to walk your dog(s) as many times as needed throughout the day and whatever distance needed. Theres a beautiful park by where I live that has a fenced in yard that I can also take them to play in, if agreed upon (and if your dog is not reactive since this is a public park and i want to ensure their safety). During their stay your pet(s) will be allowed in the living room and bedroom of the apartment. They can sleep on or off my bed or couch, whatever they feel the most comfortable in. And if they need extra care or attention to ease any separation anxiety or stress I’ll be there. You will be receiving as many pictures, videos or updates as you would like. If I’m walking your dog they will always be on leash and completely supervised.

About: Hello everyone! I am a young professional that moved down here and unfortunately had to leave my pups back home with my parents which is why I would love to watch yours. I have had pets throughout my entire life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, veterinary clinic and has been professionally watching pets for 3 years now and loves every moment of it so I have plenty of experience dealing with all kinds of pets. I am young, very active and can assure you that your pet will get plenty of love and exercise with me. Our building has a dog park as well as a pet washing station (if needed). During our time I will follow feeding instructions thoroughly, cuddle and play with your pets, administer any medication needed and anything else that you would request. I look forward to meeting you and your pets, feel free to message me with any questions or concerns :) I am very lenient schedule wise and am always open to accommodating your needs in any way possible so please feel free to reach out!! I definitely know and understand that it’s very hard giving your beloved pet to someone else but I can assure you that I will treat your pet as our own and will keep you updated as much as you’d like throughout their stay with me. I also have a spacious apartment with a dog park and all pets are allowed on our bed/furniture and will not be crated unless requested.

Natalia is incredible!! I hired her very last minute for drop in visits and walks for my bernedoodle Bear, when my plans changed on extremely short notice. She was flexible, reliable and friendly, and even more importantly, she really took the time to connect with Bear. This was my first time leaving Bear since adopting him, and since I work from home, he is not used to spending time alone. After one drop in visit, he began howling after Natalia left; she heard him, went back inside to calm him down, left her sweatshirt for him to cuddle with, and stayed until he settled. I felt so reassured knowing that someone so caring was looking after him. We will absolutely hire Natalia again going forward.

Cristy went above and beyond taking care of our kittens. They loved her and I didn’t have to worry at all while I was away for a week. When they both had soft stool, she even diligently cleaned up after them and recommended a great diet plan. The kitties were relaxed, well brushed, and well fed!
