Stephen is a gem! He is thorough, flexible and reliable, and I could tell my cat loved his visits. It was such a relief to know he was looking after her and we will definitely be calling upon him again!

Danielle was absolutely amazing! Our boys 🐶 were beyond well taken care of. We loved our daily updates and photos. We could tell our dogs were comfortable and loved while we were gone. Highly recommend and we will definitely be a returning client!

Jenn has been watching my two dogs for over a year. She is unfailingly on time, has never canceled, and my dogs love her. I can’t recommend her enough.

Rachael is phenomenal. She went above and beyond taking care of my cats while I was away, especially when one had an unpleasant bathroom situation - I can’t recommend her more highly!

Abby has been a godsend for us. She’s been regularly taking my dogs out for months now and she is reliable, friendly, and a good communicator. She was especially heroic about a month ago when she arrived to discover one of my dogs having a stroke. She contacted me right away, was calm, thorough, and helpful, and I was able to come home to take my dog in to the vet. We’re fully recovered and I can’t even imagine where we’d be without Abby. I’d rebook her in a heartbeat.

Phoebe goes above and beyond. Blown away by her attention to detail, customer service, and thoughtfulness in general. My very anxious and active dog really likes her and that makes me feel so happy.

Rebekah did an amazing job with our cats, we're so glad we found her! She connected with them so fast, it was impressive, specially with my shy cat, she won them both over and manage to gain their trust since day one, even our shy cat came out of his hiding spot to get treats which is sooooo rare with new people, the updates were amazing, she left everything so nice and clean, she took such good care of my babies, makes being away way easier. We appreciate you Rebekah! Will definitely recommend.

About: I provide high-quality, attentive pet care tailored to each pet’s unique needs and personality. My experience caring for my family dog through kidney failure, including administering medication and closely monitoring her condition, taught me a deep level of patience, responsibility, and attention to detail that I bring to every pet I care for.I go beyond basic care by creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and provide consistent updates with photos so you always feel connected and at ease. Whether your pet needs gentle, specialized care or active companionship, I adapt to their routine and energy level. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they receive not just care but genuine attention, comfort, and affection. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and extended stays, including weekends and evenings. I make pet care a priority in my routine, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m also reliable with timing and can accommodate specific feeding, medication, or walk schedules as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and stress-free. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and preferred routines. I maintain a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets during walks and visits. I’m attentive to behavior and surroundings to prevent any risks, and I prioritize secure handling, especially in new environments. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: I am known as the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends and family! I have worked with everything from tiny 4 week old puppies to senior pets who need assistance walking and require multiple medications. I am comfortable with giant dogs and I have experience with fearful/aggressive animals. I’m an avid hiker and love to stay active, usually with my dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have a very flexible schedule so I am available to walk or care for your pet at your convenience! I have a reliable car and don’t mind driving! I have a yard with a secure, 6 foot privacy fence and live in a very walkable neighborhood with three parks near my home. If your pet is more comfortable staying home I am available to take care of them there! I’m a fast learner and I’m eager to learn your pet’s routine!

If there’d been a 10-star rating option for this sitter, I’d have selected it expeditiously! While I was away on a 10 day vacation halfway across the world, Michelle went beyond Rover expectations—she exceeded in every category, from feeding to cuddling to playing. She even cleaned and tidied up an unexpected accident my cat had left during her last visit. I’m super impressed and happily pleased with Michelle’s service. Would I ever rebook with her?. . .Is the sky blue? Yes 👏🏾 Yes 👏🏾 YES 🙌🏾

Stephen was a great comfort to my husband and me while we were out of town! He took such great care of our 2 kitties and we could not have asked for a better pet sitter. We would definitely hire him again in the future!

Abby was a great help and captured some entertaining and sweet pictures of my 3 cats while I was away. One of my cats has medical needs that always leaves me anxious when I'm away. But Abby's detailed updates each visit really helped ease that anxiety. Which also allowed me to enjoy my trip more. All 3 cats were taken care of wonderfully!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Kyani. She took amazing care of our fur babies and it shows, they were always so excited to see her. She is a great communicator and sent us daily updates and pictures of our babies. She also took such great care of our home, even bringing packages in and ensuring our robovaccum doesn’t her stuck. I would absolutely hire her again and you should too!

Unfortunately for me and her clients, we're losing Michelle to a different job during the day so my dog scruffy won't have the benefit of getting to see her when she comes over midday. He's really been lethargic lately but she's helped in conjunction with my pet sitter to really get them back up on his feet and I'm really going to miss her. Thank you again Michelle, you've been awesome

Autumn went above and beyond while I was away. The weather ranged from 40-90 degrees while I was away, and Autumn opened and closed windows to make sure it didn’t get too hot or too cold in the apartment. She was very responsive to my couple of questions and requests during my trip and always posts lots of photos. My more skittish cat is comfortable with her, which is great, too.

Teresa is amazing! Always on time and sent good photos. She took good care of my two cats. My cats were really shy and still learning to meet new people, so I was a bit afraid at the first when I had to travel. So I was really excited to see how they warmed you and how comfortable they looked in the photos with Teresa, so thank you.
