Kade was great! They took care of our dog while we had hectic schedules and couldn’t be home regularly to take him out. My dog loved them and really enjoyed having a new human friend! They sent great photos, communicated really well about my pet, and made sure the door was locked when they left. I would definitely recommend Kade to watch your pet!

Jonathan did a fantastic job looking in on my cat babies all summer long. He kept them fed, kept their water bowls clean and took care of the litter boxes. He changed the pads under the boxes regularly and went above and beyond more than twice. He’s very reliable, trustworthy, and super nice.

Lynne is a reliable and caring pet sitter! Over the last decade, I have watched her care for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, and even sugar gliders. Lynne has watched my own dogs and cat on multiple occasions and always provides excellent care. She even sends me photo updates of how my pets are doing while I am away! I definitely be hiring her again, and would recommend her services to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets.

Aubrey left my cat happy and apartment clean. My cat is slightly special needs with some litter box issues and it's always stressful leaving her for trips, but this was the most peace of mind I've had in years while away. The upfront, professional, and thorough communication helped my anxiety. Highly recommended.

Chloe was a lifesaver! We booked her for some last minute check ins before our pup stays with her next month, she drove half an hour to our new house to check on Finley and made us feel so comfortable about him staying with her next month. Finley has found a new bff!❤️

I love Shelly. She is very compassionate and dependable. I have four cats with very shy personalities, so they can be quite difficult even for myself. I'm so grateful I found her. Shelly is a dog and cat owner herself. Animals just naturally gravitate to her.

Nancy has been looking after our two cats, Ruth and Otto, whenever my fiancé and I are out of town for the past few years. She has been nothing but reliable, professional, and lovely to our babies. I can always count on several adorable photos to update us on how each cat is doing, and Nancy makes sure to give each cat special, individual attention. Additionally, Otto needs to receive oral medication once a day, and Nancy always administers it successfully. I highly recommend her to be a loving and consistent caregiver for your pets!

About: The better part of my life has been spent around animals, from horses to hedgehogs. I have 11 years of big-dog experience raising my sweet pittie from puppyhood and I recently became a proud cat dad. My pet care style is focused on observing your animal’s needs + feelings and maintaining control of the situation so everyone stays safe. My work hours vary, and I have some holiday time off in the next few weeks, so feel free to reach out with any booking requests and we’ll see if we can make it work! I offer drop-in pet care services in a client’s home. This is flexible and can include feeding, walking, playing, etc. I always appreciate as much detail in care instructions as you’re able to give.
