“Diane is amazing! Our dog Juni is really tough. She's petrified of strangers and sometimes nips. She's very slow to warm up and sometimes won't even let sitters let her outside. There have been times when she boycotted eating for days, and even when we have family watch her, she's often sick for days after we get back because of stress. Diane worked with Juni and treated her with kindness, patience, and understanding. She gave her space and even did some emotion/body coding work with her which I thought was really cool. She treated our house with respect and we returned to it spotless. I felt very safe and comfortable having her stay in our home, and I think Juni did too. She was in great spirits when we got back and she even had a great few days of eating, no stress sickness. We so appreciate Diane's willingness to work with her! In addition, she was very communicative and thorough when it came to the details/logistics of the stay, and came by in advance to meet us and Juni. I would recommend Diane to anyone.”

“Miguel is an amazing petsitter and great human being!! He helped me out on short notice, being extremely communicative, thoughtful, and detail oriented in his care for my pets. I highly recommend him to other pet owners looking for someone who enjoys energetic animals like my two border collies. Thanks again Miguel!”

About: Hi! I'm Megan — a lifelong cat lover with an obsession for cats. Cats have always been a huge part of my life, starting at 5 years old when my family took home our first feline friend. I currently have my buddy Jack, a sweet and playful 5-year-old cat who keeps me entertained every day. I have a special soft spot for senior cats — my last beloved kitty lived to the wonderful age of 23. and throughout those senior years, I gained a lot of experience and patience in understanding the extra attention and gentle affection that elderly cats often require. Whether your cat is a shy senior, a playful kitten, or anything in between, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I offer flexible availability and can stop by whenever you prefer. Every cat has their own personality and needs, and I pride myself on adjusting my care to suit them perfectly. I can't wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the care and attention they deserve! I offer flexible and reliable availability, and I’m happy to coordinate any visit time that you prefer—whether it’s early mornings, evenings, weekends, or anything in between. Every cat is wonderfully unique, with their own personality, habits, and preferences. I make it a priority to adjust my care to meet each cat’s specific needs and comfort level. I'm also happy to help with additional home care tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or anything else that helps give you peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have been working in the veterinary medicine field for about 6 years, and have had my own fur babies all my life. I am currently working as a physical therapist for cats and dogs, providing me with the skill set to care for seniors and mobility-challenged pets. I also have a fondness for working with behaviorally-challenged pets that require specific care. I will always take the time to properly introduce myself to any new pet - reading their body language and moving at their pace. I am able to stay calm in stressful situations and learn how to avoid any triggers that may affect your pet. I truly enjoy connecting and spending time with animals of all kinds, and I would be honored to meet and care for your furry friends! I am currently working Monday-Thursday at a pet rehab facility, so my availability is typically Friday-Sunday. I can be available Wednesday afternoons with advance notice. I am always careful to ensure all doors/gates/exits are secure, and any harmful objects are out-of-reach for your pet(s)! I value the time a pet requires to adjust to a new person or situation, and will do my best to help your pet feel safe and comfortable. For the seniors and pets that require special care, I am able to use my knowledge of vet medicine to gauge the level/movement they are capable.
“Ola was a wonderful dog sitter for our pup. She was neat, orderly, and respectful of our place while we were gone. She did us a huge favor by staying with our pup over Memorial Day weekend. 10/10!”

“Christie meet us the day before we needed to head out of town for a family emergency. She did AMAZING staying in our home with our 85# dog and 1 year old cat. Christie was attentive, thorough and caring. She was flexible with our schedule. We can’t thank her enough!”


“Gail was amazing with our 3 dogs! She was very communicative and sent a bunch of pictures. She was patient and gentle with our very fearful and nervous dog. We came back to a house that was cleaner and looked better than before we left. She even had dinner waiting for us which was such a sweet surprise after a long day of travel. And of course, our pups were happy as could be when we got home! We’ll definitely use Gail again.”

“Malcolm is very flexible and punctual! He gave our dogs so much attention and love. I have a reactive and anxious dog I was very worried of being away from, but she loved him and did well. He provides thorough updates and is detailed. Would recommend for dog walks and house sitting needs!”

“Jamie was a great Dogsitter, she kept in great communication and sent photos and updates. I was very pleased with her professionalism and my dogs were happy and calm when I got home, which is the review that counts!!”

“Abel was an amazing pet sitter!! He was 100% focused on my dog, India. He sent me food updates, pictures and videos throughout my trip. He kept in touch everyday. I knew India was in good hands and have asked Abel to come back to sit again. Thanks Abel!”

“Andrea was great with our pup! She kept him company while we were away and he was always happy to see her. We received many updates and pics and will definitely be using her in the future.”

“Stephanie pup sat and house sat for us while we were out of town for over a week and she was FANTASTIC every step of the way. She came over to meet our two pups and they instantly connected, even our doggo who’s a bit of a scaredy cat loved her instantly. We explained the flow of a typical day before we left, and throughout the trip we never for a second worried that Stephanie needed extra reminders or pings. Stephanie sent us regular updates and pics of the pups as they explored the neighborhood on their leashed walks. Stephanie was also very clean and treated our place with a ton of respect - we’d had the place cleaned before we left and it looked even cleaner and tidier when we got back. Overall we were really happy with Stephanie, who helped us out immeasurably while also juggling her work. Our pups were well taken care of, our place was looked after, and I honestly can’t remember another trip we took where we didn’t have to worry at all about how our girls were doing, and we have Stephanie to thank for that!”

“Jessica … is … WONDERFUL! Our geriatric dog is a bit needy. Jessica was amazingly attentive, patient, and caring towards her. We could not have asked for more. We so appreciate her!”


“Sarah was amazing from the beginning! She was friendly, responsive, and great with all of the boys! She made me feel comfortable having her with them! Would recommend her to anyone, and will use her in the future!”

“We just had Joyce for 3 days and nights as we went on a work trip. She was perfection. The dogs were so happy (got lots of happy and tired dog pics) and she left the house spotless, too. Can’t recommend her enough. The best dog sitter we’ve ever had by far. Thank you Joyce 🙏🏽”
