“Claudia went above and beyond for my cats while I was away for my birthday vacation. She communicated during the stay and sent pictures of my babies. I felt that my cats and home were safe with Claudia!”


“I had to leave town on short notice, and I'm so thankful Lindsey was able to squeeze us in! She came over for a quick meet and greet, and I could tell right away she was a calm person who would be great with my shy timid little girl... and she was! She sent photos and kept me updated on how she was doing... I'll DEFINITELY reach out to Lindsey again!”


“This was our first time hiring a sitter for drop-in pet minding, and Karen made it an incredibly comfortable and low-stress experience. Daily check-ins complete with pictures and a little report kept us smiling and looking forward to the next day, so we could see more cute pet pics. Karen even caught a problem with our pool that we were able to inform our landlord of so he could take care of it while we're out of country - she really just went above and beyond, and we're so grateful for her work 🥰 We'll be hiring her again in the future, and I promise you won't regret doing the same!”


“Addison was awesome! She had great communication, friendly, and sent lots of pictures and videos of Joji having a blast so I had no worries. Joji loved her and I would definitely recommend Addison to anyone looking to book with her!”


“Rebecca went above and begin with my cat Bowie! She even configured a way for me to drop my keys off with her in a lockbox. And she cleaned his food bowl without being asked. Will 100% be using her again”


“Veronica is always quick to respond, prompt with her drop-ins, very thorough and above all incredibly kind and the dogs love her. No question that she is our first choice to look after our dogs every time.”


“Amazing for my kitties as always! Hollie has been my pet sitter for at least a year and a half (maybe two??) and one of my cats (who hides from anyone else) would rather go live with her I swear. And recently my other hiding kitty has been accepting treats directly and will be out with her around! I appreciate the detail I get from Hollie after each visit, and all the pictures and videos, and personalized cards. Just all in all, I cannot recommend her enough.”


“Ashley was good with our cats and dog, and was always easy to reach! Her communication was great and she sent pictures, too. I will definitely book Ashley again. Thank you, Ashley!”


“We were nervous first-timers leaving our two pups, Nigel and George, in the care of someone new—but Lyric blew us away! From the very beginning, she was reassuring, communicative, and genuinely caring. Knowing she has dogs of her own gave us that extra peace of mind—she’s a true dog lover, and it shows. We felt confident she would treat our pups like her own, and she absolutely did. She kept us in the loop daily with updates and gave us a heads-up on any schedule changes. One moment that really showed her dedication: I forgot to leave her a key (oops!), and she kindly waited while I rushed home from work—no complaints, just understanding and kindness. Lyric made sure both of our dogs got the attention they needed—whether it was high-energy play for one or gentle bonding time for the other. One of our boys takes a while to warm up to people, but her patience and gentle nature won him over. Now, he lights up every week when she visits! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Our dogs adore her, and we do too. Highly, highly recommend!”


“We have booked Vivian over and over again to watch our kitties and will continue to book with her. So communicative, always on time, and always gives our babies love when we’re out of town. Cannot recommend her enough!”


About: Aloha Y'all, Amanda here and I am wicked excited to meet your pet! I have always been an animal lover and love to meet new furry friends. If they are super active, I can take them on 1 to 3 mile runs or hiking. If they like to be a couch potato, I have a great big bean bag with their name on it. I can even teach them a few fun tricks while they stay with me to keep their minds active. I will work with your schedule and be attentive to your animal. I will follow your every instruction and send photo updates. I will care for your animal like they are my own with lots of love! Hope to meet you soon!

“Andrea was great with Jax. She checked in often and provided great feedback on her time with him and clarified everything to ensure his needs were met. I can tell he enjoyed his time with her and I will definitely be re-booking with Andrea in the future.”


“Laila was fantastic! She took such great care of our two cats for a week, and it was such a joy to see pictures of them and receive updates about them while we were away. Laila was kind, thorough, and our first choice if we need cat care again. We are so grateful for her help!”


“Emy was awesome!!! She took really great care of all my cats!!! My cats really warmed up to her. They would wait for her and greet her at the door 😀😻 She communicated great with me and I had no worries on my trip because my pets were in great care with Emy!!!! Will definitely book Emy again . Thank you”


About: Forever a dog person! Grew up with all animals from dogs, cats, reptiles, and rodents! Grew up in Seguin on a ranch and have loved animals with a desire to care for each one’s specific needs. I also supported my past girlfriends Rover experience throughout the pandemic. If she was away, I would also care for pets in our home so I’m acclimated to many kinds of pets in my home! Depending on your pets age, needs, and required attention I’m very flexible when it comes to stepping away from my main responsibilities to care for pets. I do micromanage time based on your pets schedule. As a full time work from home employee I’m able to make on demand adjustments. If your pet had a unique schedule, I’ll be happy to match those requirements! My home: my apartment is very spacious. I allow most pets the freedom to roam and play to their desire. My current pet, Yuuki is a 8 year old who is shy at first, but does enjoy being social as well. Puppies can be crated (based on family suggestion). If a pet is reactionary or has trouble sharing spaces with my pet - a further discussion and potential meet and greet is highly recommended. Your home: As a WFH worker I’m able to take my work with me wherever I can. I can stay at your home or make frequent visits between mine and yours. I can follow clear and concise instructions on how you would like for me to care for your pet and home.

“Alexandria did an amazing job with our two dogs. She worked well with our girl German shepherd who can be quite apprehensive around new people”


Amanda M.
“Amanda is an amazing pet sitter! She was friendly, reliable, and very flexible with her visiting schedule when it came to the care of my fur babies. I have two cats, one of which required a strict feeding schedule due to being overweight. While I was on an extended business trip, Amanda promptly came to the house three times a day to feed my chubby fur ball while making sure my other cat did not eat the “diet food”. She cleaned the litter boxes and kept my kitties entertained with play time. Amanda sent me photo and video updates of my cats each visit so that I knew they were being well cared for, too. I have referred her to my close friends for dog watching/walking and they have said she is just as great working with their dogs! I will definitely be asking her to pet sit again for me in the future!”
