“Katie was amazing! She went above and beyond while looking after my cat while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cat and home were in such caring and capable hands. Everything was well looked after, and I could tell my cat was happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Katie to anyone needing a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”
“Pamela is a fantastic sitter for my cat. She is caring, thoughtful, and punctual every time. I never have to worry about leaving my baby in her care. Thank you Pamela!”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful! I’m so glad to have found her, and my cats loved her so much! She took great care of our two boys when we were away and did great at updating us! We are already booking her for our next trip! If you have cats that need the best care, I highly recommend!”
“Becky took excellent care of my boys while I was out of town for several days. She communicated all concerns and let me know how they were doing each visit. She provided lots of photos and made me feel better about being away from my pups.”
“Teresa did a great job checking on our cat while we were gone. She stayed 30 min giving him pets, cleaning his litter box and checking his food/water. She is a great communicator and even sent us a picture. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Wow!!! I really think she did a great job. We have a super shy cat and she tried very hard to interact with him. I would book her again. She is very kind good with animals and communicated great.”
“Meghan watched our 2 cats for a whole week. This was the first time we left them for that long without the care of someone in our family, so we were very grateful it went all well! She was attentive to detail and shared pics daily. I can tell she went above and beyond to create a bond with our -very- shy cats. She laid on the floor, gave them space, time, and by the last day, they were happily adjusted and we can’t be happier. For sure will keep her in mind whenever we need to go on trips again!”
“Kayla was awesome! She dropped in and took care of our kitty in our home for our long trip out of town. She was consistent and communicative and it was clear she cared. She even moved in packages that were left outside of our apt without us asking. Will definitely look to book her in the future.”
“Hadley was an amazing sitter for our two cats! We had a last minute booking and she was quick to respond, come by the house and get their care instructions. Every visit she gave us updates and photos and even got our shy kitties to warm up to her. Really enjoyed our vacation with the peace of mind that Snuggie and TJ were in great hands with Hadley. Highly recommended!!”
“Fran is amazing! She took such great care of our babies while we were gone. She gave us timely updates and plenty of pictures of their shenanigans. Even went as far as bringing in our mail, which is sooo appreciated. 10/10, we will definitely book again with Fran in the future!!!!”
About: Dog care has been a well known trade of mine for over 15 years. I am best with smaller-medium dogs, unless your big dog is a good walker! You can thank my sister’s lab for that last comment LOL. I am studying law, so I have flexible summers. My only job is remote, so I am able to work often. I do not plan to leave the Columbia area for long periods of time this summer. While my home is already occupied by my three cats, I will do whatever you feel necessary to respectfully watch your pets in your home. I offer zoom/skype/FaceTime calls during my stay if you ever want to see how your pet is doing!
“This was our first time hiring someone to care for our little fur baby and we hit the lottery with Marilyn! She was very responsive to messages and truly cared about the routine of our little kitty. The pictures and updates were a small highlight of our day while we were away!”
“Stephanie did a wonderful job visiting and caring for Dottie and Milton. We got updates during each visit and they clearly enjoyed her presence with them. We’re new to the area and look forward to her being our pet sitter when we are out of town again. Highly recommended!”
“We LOVE Johann !!! My pups , especially my Rottweiler does not do well with strangers. He bonded with Johann very quick and I can’t thank Johann enough what he do for my babies while I was out of town. He is the person you can trust with your pets”
