Ajna was so great with our cat Jeff, we can tell how quickly he took to her! We loved getting the photo updates, and Ajna was always on time. We even found that she had taken inside some unexpected package deliveries while we were away! We so appreciate that Ajna was able to look after Jeff over the holidays

We were so pleased with the care our rather old, rather shy cat received from Crispin. And, to my amazement-the kitty area was as clean as I left it. Crispin, both kitty and I thank you!

Matilda is the kind of girl who will ask to pet every stranger's dog she meets, no matter how sandy, stinky, big or small she really just loves the animals. Plus, the fact she’s been able to take care of my disastrous duo consisting of a hyper energetic yapping Pomeranian Yorkie, and my cute but conniving Queensland heeler, your dogs could not be in better hands.

I had the pleasure of having Krysta pet sit for my cats, and I couldn't have been more impressed with her level of care and dedication. Her genuine love for animals is evident in every interaction she has with them. Not only did she ensure that my cats were well-fed and comfortable, but she also took the time to play with them and give them the affection they needed while I was away. Krysta is incredibly responsible and goes above and beyond to meet the unique needs of each pet she cares for. I felt completely at ease knowing that my furry friends were in such capable hands. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend Krysta as a pet sitter and dog walker. Anyone who entrusts their beloved pets to her care can rest assured that they will receive the best possible attention and affection.

This was our second booking with Cheryl and we will continue to ask for her in the future. She is very communicative, thorough and trustworthy, and quite good with our cat. In several instances she went above the promised services, which was most helpful. I recommend her highly.

We needed someone to come to check on our kitties last minute and Fernanda accommodated us. We are super thankful for finding her to take care of Miku and Yuki. She fed them, cleaned their boxes and even took some time to play with them. 100% recommend.

Natalie is great! I've had her for longer stays at my apartment and shorter check ins for quick trips and always came back to a full food bowl, clean litter box and a very happy cat. She always sends me updates and pictures to let me know how things were going and is quick to let me know of any issues. 10/10 would recommend for sure!

I have known Sara for many years and can confirm that she has always the go to gal in our friend group when it comes to pet sitting. She is very responsible, patient and loves exploring nature, which she often does with fur buddies (even her cat!) Would highly recommend Sara to anyone seeking exceptional pet care when needed.

It’s readily apparent within moments of meeting Meagan how much of an animal lover she is. From the smallest (and sassiest) of pups to the big, slobbery dogs, Meagan is great with them all. She is always checking in on my Lily and has been so gentle as Lily came from a very traumatic situation and is slowly learning to trust people again. Meagan’s patience and calm demeanor gives me such peace of mind when I have to leave Lily. And to me, that’s invaluable.

About: Being raised in a home with multiple dogs and cats, I have deeply enjoyed the role of care taking, playing, exercising, and cohabitating with animals. For the last fifteen years I have supported many friends and families in taking care of their pets. Due to graduate studies and apartment life, I do not have the joy of having an animal in my life and am hoping to support my studies with additional income while enjoying supporting animals and families. I look forward to meeting yours, supporting them, and you! I currently have a flexible schedule, as I work remotely four days a week. My ideal situation would be to establish a relationship where ongoing, consistent support can be available for both me and your pet/family! I am available for dog, cat, and house sitting, I have full overnight availability, and while I am not in a position to house your furry family members, I am available to come tend to them in your space. At this time, I am not available to bring animals to my home. I am, however, available to come tend to your furry family members at your home.
