“Madeline was fantastic! She was responsible, communicative, quick to understand what my two cats needed, and a pleasure to work with. The daily photos and recap were an added bonus. Highly recommend her!”

About: We’ve been pet-sitting for over 16 years and have had numerous clients gush to us afterward about their furry friends being in better shape than when they left. This is because we devote all of our time and energy to making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved even when you’re gone, so they know you’ve left them in good hands. Among our years of caring for others’ pets, we have nursed senior dogs, handled multi-pet households with ease, and even won over dogs and cats who don’t usually like people outside of their families. We love animals whole-heartedly and will do everything we can to win their trust and love. We know from personal experience that your pet is your family, and you can rest assured they will always be treated with love and care. We have both had dogs and cats since we were very young, and a couple of years ago, we adopted our rescue dog, Lusi. Both of us have a lot of experience with handling rescue dogs and both small and large breeds. We also both have extensive experience with taking care of cats. We often take care of pets together, and always want to ensure your pet is in the best hands, and that you feel comfortable with us. You are welcome to request either one of us to care for your fur babies, if you have a preference. If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Because there are two of us, our schedule is pretty flexible. We currently both work from home and are very easy to work with to make sure your pet gets the care you need, when you need it! We are diligent about changing and filling water bowls, feeding and walking pets on time, and making sure we follow all house rules or expectations when we are house-sitting or stopping by to walk a dog. We are highly experienced with dietary restrictions and administering medications. If anything is ever unclear to us, we ask clarifying questions, and we are highly communicative and more than happy to give frequent updates on your pet.
“My cats (Duck and Goose) are sooo picky about who they choose to approach, but instantly took to Celeste. She’s super communicative, kind, punctual, and made sure Duck & Goose were well taken care of while I was away!! I always have anxiety about leaving them but knew I could trust Celeste right away :) definitely only coming to her from now on when I go out of town. I had to extend my trip a few days and Celeste was super flexible in being able to modify our booking. Absolutely no complaints!!💓”
About: Hi, I’m Sofia—I’m an illustrator/artist and currently work from home as a graphic designer. I’m a life-long dog owner with years of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I’m patient, reliable, and great with shy or cautious animals. I’ll make sure your furry (or feathered!) friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Bonus—for longer visits, let me know and I can draw your pet as a little keepsake! I’m currently working part-time and remotely so I have a flexible schedule to be there for your pets! I’m happy to accommodate and discuss how I can be of service. I follow your home’s rules and your pet’s care instructions closely to make sure they feel safe and you feel confident. I always double-check gates, locks, and am extra careful when opening doors. I keep a close eye on curious noses and paws—whether that means keeping terriers out of the trash or making sure no one snacks on mystery items during walks. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities!
About: I have been caring dogs for over 6 years, and it is more than just a job- it is a passion. Over the years, I have welcomed many furry friends into my home, each one leaving a paw print on my heart. But I moved and now starting all over again in a new place, but my love and experience remain the same. Walks are a big part of our routine: three times a day, with one long adventure in the mountains or at the park so your pup can stretch legs and explore new scents. But do not worry, if your best friend is used to walking only twice a day or does not like long walks, I can easily adapt to your dog's schedule. I strictly follow your feeding instructions- no table scraps or extra treats unless you tell that they are your dog’s favorites. I also have very friendly two adult (7 years old both) neutered dogs, so yours will have no chance to feel lonely! Your pet will always be under our watchful eyes, so I will make sure every day is filled with playtime, affection, and care, so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid. Many of my family friends have asked me to care for their pets when they are away. I am very good at keeping their daily routines and walk them as much as the owner requests. I have a very open schedule after finishing my degree so i could easily fit them into my daily routine. If I have a busy day I make it a priority to make sure the dog is cared for and gets enough attention. I usually try to be in the same room as the pets I care for. Constantly checking their water bowls that they are full and making sure the fur baby is getting lots of love and attention!

Prerana & Aubrey S.
““Prerana and Aubrey have taken care of many of my pets over the years; from my senior dog, Lily, to my numerous cats, it is clear how much they both love animals. They have done overnight stays at my place and I feel good knowing my cats trust them and love to snuggle up with them at night. I have seen them handle stronger dogs with confidence and have witnessed how attentive they are to the needs of every pet. Prerana is very communicative and will send you lots of pictures and updates on your fur babies. They are very good at following care instructions and watching for any changes in pet behavior and health. I trust them entirely in my home and with my pets. I always check to see if they’re available when I need a sitter for my pets!””

Sofia F.
“We've been working with Sofia for almost a year and Sofia is a great pet caregiver! Our West Highland Terrier-Jack Russell Terrier mix (and rescue) is very wary of people, including people he interacts with regularly. He doesn't really like physical contact, except from his Mom and Dad, and even then in limited amounts. But he's really taken to Sofia, more than any other pet sitter we've worked with previously. Sofia is very calm and gentle and her presence has a positive effect on our pup. He's happy to see her and will even let her pet him occasionally. Sofia is diligent about keep our pup on his walking and feeding schedule, and she plays with him/keep him engaged, when he's interested in that (which is not always.) Sofia is also very communicative, texting/sending photos as often or as little as we like, and keeping us informed if any issues. Sofia stays at our home and is very respectful of the space as well. It is a huge relief to have someone like Sofia to care for our pup when we are out of town. I highly recommend Sofia-she's the best!”
Liliia M.
“I highly recommend them for any dog, any breed. With years of experience, they know how to make each pet feel safe, happy, and truly loved — giving every dog the perfect mix of walks, play, and companionship”
Talia H.
“Tali was raised with Golden Retrievers her whole life, and as such she loves dogs. She still cares for our dog on occasions, and it is always with love and care. She is always watching youtube or tiktok videos of pets but dogs in particular and forwarding us the exceptional cute ones. I think Tali will be just as loving with anybody's pet, as she seems to have almost excessive empathy for these animals.”
Jessica S.
“I'm grateful to have found such a reliable, trustworthy and kind pet sitter. Jessica was great at communicating and provided a lot of photos and feedback when she took care of my fur baby. I definitely recommend her to everyone. Thanks Jessica!”

Alex is awesome! This was my first time ever leaving my two dogs in the 11 years I’ve had them. Alex is warm, caring, and was great with my pups. He was always on time, provided updates/pics, and kept me informed of anything going on. I will definitely use Alex again if needed. Thank you, Alex!

Vanessa was great! She came over a few days before our trip to meet our two cats and see where everything is. She sent us photos and gave them some loving which was great to see. She did everything we asked and we came home to a clean kitty environment. Very professional and sweet. Would totally book again!
I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received while I was away. Leyla was absolutely fantastic — not only did she feed them on time and keep their litter boxes spotless, but she also made sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting regular photo and video updates, which really helped ease my mind and showed just how happy and comfortable my cats were. It was clear they were in great hands! My house was exactly as I left it — clean, tidy, and well looked after. It was such a relief to return home to calm, content kitties and everything in perfect order. Highly recommend Leyla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Will definitely book again!
Isabella is everything one could wish for in a dog sitter. She engaged with Rowan immediately, and has lovely calm energy--which is a great experience for our highly active pup (and us as well!). She took care of all his evening needs-- feeding, walking, and playtime, and was the perfect companion to our little guy.
