Kirsten was amazing! She took great care of my three cats while I was gone for 3.5 weeks. She made sure to send me photos and videos every day, and it was clear in those videos how much the cats adored her! I would absolutely re-hire her to take care of my cats in the future.

I’m a repeat client of Rucha’s. She cares for my Suki like her own cat and is super responsive. She has all the qualities you want in a reliable sitter; anytime I’m out of town, I can call on Rucha and feel less stressed about leaving my Suki at home.

Sarah was great. She visited my cat while I was out of town, took care of all of her needs and beyond, brushed her and even gave her some outside time. The many photos she took helped me feel like Faye was well taken care of. I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitting experience. Thank you, Sarah!

I felt comfortable that he was being taken care of all weekend and came home to a happy cat. I highly recommend Sara and will be contacting her for future services next time I need a pet sitter!

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember, both large and small. I've been routinely walking a 100 pound great Pyrenees since I was a pre teen, so I know how to handle a large barking dog (and I'm not even bothered by barking any more!). I also have a lot of energy, so I'm happy to play as much as possible with any sort of dog. I'm also currently missing my own two dogs at home, so you can be sure that your dogs would get plenty of love and attention if I'm taking care of them. I'm a college student so my schedule is fairly open, aside from when I have class. I'm also available consistently on the weekends, so it wouldn't be an issue to perform frequent check ins. I'm happy to answer any specific inquiries about my weekly availability as well. I am comfortable using whatever mode of security you want, and will be sure to supervise your pets carefully if we're outside. I'm comfortable giving medicine to animals, as I've had some experience with my own cat (who had diabetes) and other foster kittens who needed eye drops, or medication given through pipettes.

About: I grew up in an animal loving household and have always jumped at any opportunity to spend time with and care for many types of pets. I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was 15 and it’s never felt like a job because I love to do it! I am in school full-time but it is online, so my hours are very flexible. As long as I have notice, I can accommodate whatever timing is most convenient for you. My number one priority is making sure your pet feels as safe and comfortable as possible. I will take things at their pace and make sure to maintain open communication with you, the client, so I know how to properly see to your pet’s specific needs.

Lily filled in catsitting for a few days at the end of our vacation and was great! She was super responsive throughout, came to meet the cats with just a day's notice, and also went to the house in an hour's time—at a different time than her usual visit—when I asked if she could run over to get some packages delivered to our porch inside for us. Would happily recommend and have Lily come by again.

Rachel was the best cat sitter we could have hoped for. She communicated constantly, sent pictures, answered our questions, and remained attentive throughout her stay in our home. Our cats, who are normally very shy of strangers, quickly warmed up to her with snuggles - a very unprecedented thing! Feeling that sense of trust and security for our animals made our trip that much more enjoyable, knowing we did not have to worry at all about how our cats were doing. We cannot recommend her enough!
