“I highly recommend Raquel. She was very responsive, attentive, and caring with my two kitties! They are both under one year old and she was able to play with them and tire them out for me. They warmed up to her quickly and definitely enjoyed her company. She went the extra mile with her detailed updates in the rover cards she sent me and she took tons of photos. I had no doubt that they were in good hands.”
“Patricia did a great job with our cats! The cats were clean and happy when we got home after a week. She kept our apartment clean which was a big added bonus!”
“Jillian is amazing! My cat adored her and was comfortable right away with her. She also gave detailed updates and sent pictures when she came and checked on him. I’m so grateful she was able to squeeze me into her schedule last minute to take care of my cat. It gave peace of mind knowing my baby was in good hands while I was gone!”
“Elyse went above and beyond. She had challenges with Callie and had to give her medication and shots twice a day and clean up after her as she had issues with her litter box as well. Unfortunately Callie became ill while I was away and Elyse promptly called my vet and took Callie into the office. She kept me updated every day on her visits with my two cats with pictures. I would recommend Elyse to anyone.”
About: Being raised with dogs, cats, and other various kinds of animals since I was 6 years old, I’m not a stranger to small (or even big!) feet following me around the house. From love and snuggles after a long day, to laughing at zoomie episodes, my family has built our lives around our animals. And I would love to add your pet into my happy story. Rest assured, you can leave your fur-baby with me for peace of mind, and can expect them to be loved, cared for, snuggled, and protected as you would do. I have experience with energetic, senior, and pups with allergies and/or meds. I primarily work part time away from home mid-week in the evenings, but work from home the rest of the time, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to being home for your baby. I am an avid communicator and will be making sure I follow all necessary instructions left by you (feeding needs, medical needs, etc.). If I’m not sure on something, I’ll always communicate to make sure to provide the best service to your and your baby.
“Karinna is amazing. My cats love her. She is easy to get a hold of and cares very much about the animals and making sure they have what they need. This is the second time I have booked with her and I plan on using her for the future.”
About: I have taken care of animals for 15 years and I am very passionate about making animals feel safe, comfortable and loved. I grew up with both cats and dogs and so I am able to take care of both. From pugs, mastiffs, labradors, to cats, I can do it all. I give medication, deep-clean litter boxes, play with you pets and overall make sure your pet feels at ease while you’re away. I am currently a full time employee that works nights (5p-2a), and so I have a lot of free time during the day to take care of your pet. I always get up early to make sure I’m taking care of me and my cat’s needs and am able to extend that care to your animals as well. When I do a drop-in visit, I always do a sweep around the main areas of the house to ensure that everything is in order. For dogs, my main priority is to take them out, check their water bowl and play with them to make sure they have the care they need for the day. For cats, I will always check their litter boxes to see if it needs any scooping, I will also check their food and water bowls and fill them up if needed. Like dogs, I will respect their boundaries and play with them to ensure they’re comfortable.
“Joanna took care of our cat over the last week and was awesome! She sent us lots of pictures and Dorito warmed up to her super quickly! She was also very respectful of our house. Would 100% re-book with her!”
