Sarah has walked our girl Bella numerous times and also boarded her for extended stays. She always has a positive attitude, is warm and cheerful with excellent communication skills. I find her to be extra caring and trustworthy and Bella loves her! She sends great photos which I especially appreciate when she’s keeping her for me while I’m away. Whether walking or sitting, I always feel that Bella’s in good hands and being well cared for with Sarah!

Sarah is amazing. She is always quick to respond, sends photos, and has been so sweet with my very difficult, prey-driven bully. I will always be grateful for the care she has given to my baby.

Candice was so professional and kind and really helped me with my newly adopted dog. The first day the dog ended up escaping from my apartment and Candice was immediately on it. She searched for him and eventually picked him up a couple miles away. I couldn't be more grateful for her help, great communication, and patience with the new dog with some serious separation anxiety. I would 100% recommend her.

Kay has brought a pleasant, gentle, and attentive attitude to both my cat and our correspondence. I greatly appreciate her service in the pet care. Both my cat and I have felt a safety in attending and watching over what matters to us. And bonus, I returned home to a unclustered space.

Chrystal is an expert pet lover and caregiver. She has a sweet and confident demeanor with all animals I have seen her interact with. When caring for my 3 cats (2 kittens and 1 elderly) she is efficient, consistent, punctual and goes beyond what I ask. She scoops and cleans litter, she administers meds, and she always gives them extra love and time. She is my number one pet care choice!

Anjalie is amazing! We were going out of town for two weeks and the sitter we had previously booked wasn’t able to watch our 3 girls last minute but Anjalie saved the day! Our kitties loved her! She gave great updates and pics. One of our girls is a bit difficult but she made an effort with her everyday and it sure paid off!! Will absolutely book again!

I cannot recommend Ethan enough as a dog sitter. He took care of my dog Nico while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Ethan's love for dogs is evident in the way he interacted with Nico, making him feel comfortable and loved. He provided regular updates and photos, ensuring that I knew Nico was having a great time. Ethan's professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail were exceptional. I felt at ease knowing that Nico was in such capable hands. If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, Ethan is the one to choose.

Stephanie did a great job taking care of our two cats. She sent us pictures each day she visited. She was very prompt and did exactly what we asked of her. Our cats' feeding is a bit complicated and she was very accomodating. We will definitely ask her to pet-sit again.

Whenever Jene comes over to cat and babysit, my cat goes to her when she arrives and he doesn’t do that to many people. A good sign of the care she provides! She’s trustworthy with a kind nature, which I think makes her approachable to animals. She was gentle as well as playful with my cat in the interactions I witnessed. Highly recommend her.

About: I've been cat sitting for friends and neighbors for nearly 20 years, and I've raised cats of my own as well -- I'd love to have your furry friend stay with me! Here your cat will have plenty of cuddling time, excellent bird-watching windows, and lots of space for chasing toys. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I've got lots of time and attention to share! I have two cats at home in case your cat wants buddies to play with, but the house is big enough that each has their own private space. If you'd prefer for your cat not to interact with the other two, let me know and I can ensure no contact. I take kitty safety extremely seriously, so your cat will be in great hands. I have houseplants in my home - most of them are completely non-toxic to cats, and your cat won't have access to the others.
