“Nichole was amazing! She dropped in a few times and took really good care of our cats. She also did an amazing job taking care of our outdoor plants during the summer heat! She goes above and beyond and always wants to help :)”

About: I am an animal lover who is here to help spoil your fur babies. I have my own pets, and have helped friends care for theirs when they are away. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to each animal I care for. Whether you need someone overnight or just to pop in during the day, I'm here to help. I will always follow your guidelines and special requests for your pets. Staying in contact by sending photos or a short written summary of the day will allow you to be at ease knowing your pet is being well cared for.
“Ashley went above and beyond while taking care of my quartet of feline fur babies. With one of my cats needing special care, she handled all of his extra needs without fail. Ashley made sure to spend additional time with my cats to give them all the affection they needed while I was away. I would not hesitate to book Ashley again.”

“Julia was great! She made everything easy and did exactly what we asked during her visits. She sent us some really sweet photos of our cat Cowpoke, who’s usually shy around strangers but seemed at ease and friendly with her! It was a smooth experience overall. I’d definitely recommend her to other cat owners and would be happy to book with her again!”

“Jocelyn was perfect for our cat! Our cat isn't super sociable and she understood that and gave her the space she needed. Thorough with communication and flexible to our needs! 5 stars all the way and will be booking again”


“Michael is a dog person, but took excellent care of my three cats while we were out of town. He arrived when he said he would and followed their feeding and cleaning routine exactly as written. I wouldn’t hesitate asking him to take care of my girls again. Thank you!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sammi was an absolute gem while watching our two cats, Merlin and Tiny Kitty, over the past four days! From the moment we met, her warmth and genuine love for animals put us at ease. She took the time to learn all about our cats’ quirks, feeding routines, and favorite playtime activities, ensuring they felt right at home in her care. Sammi went above and beyond, sending us daily updates with photos and videos that made us smile and kept us worry-free while we were away. Tiny Kitty, who can be a bit shy, warmed up to her quickly, and Merlin was clearly smitten, purring away in every picture! The house was spotless when we returned, and the cats were happy, healthy, and relaxed—a true testament to Sammi’s attentiveness and care. Her communication was prompt, professional, and always cheerful, which made coordinating everything a breeze. It’s clear Sammi has a special talent for pet sitting, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We’ll absolutely be booking her again for our next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter. Thank you, Sammi, for treating Merlin and Tiny Kitty like your own!”

“Bonnie let me know when she was at the house. While my cat, Nigel is timid, she tried to take pics so I could see how he was doing. The house was in great shape when I got home. I felt comforted to know that Nigel was in capable hands.”

“Just amazing! I had such peace of mind with Maria taking care of my cat. Was in other countries with low access to communication, but I knew she was taking great care of her, as well as mail, plants, etc. she’s just lovely and caring and so patient. I’m really grateful!!”

About: I’ve owned dogs/cats all my life for as long as I can remember. Being the 2nd oldest in my home I was responsible to help with the walking, grooming, and their general needs. Since renting and not able to have a pet, I’ve missed having a pet to care for and thought this would be a great opportunity for everyone involved! If I say I can do it, I’ll hold my word to it. I am dependable, responsible, honest and caring. I work at an elementary school during the day so I’ll be available evenings, weekends, and pretty much all day on holidays and during the summer. I live in an old farm house with a big yard with plenty of room to run around outside and inside. I can also crate at night or let them sleep wherever they please. If needed to get up during the night to let them out, I’d be able to do that as well.
“Melissa absolutely rocks! We were gone for 7 days. She kept our dogs walked, brushed, and skritched. We got daily updates and at least 2 pictures each day. She cared for our babies as of they were her own. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, and currently have a 7 year old beagle mix. I love animals and know that it’s sometimes hard to balance giving them the attention they need when you are working full-time, traveling, and living a busy life. I’m here to help with any and all pet-related needs. While in graduate school full-time, my schedule is flexible enough to make time for house-sitting, drop-ins, and walks. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, and I look forward to meeting your pets! I am working part-time in December, so have plenty of time for home visits, walking, etc. starting in January, I’ll be most flexible on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and of course weekends. Early mornings from Monday-Thursday are difficult due to classes, so afternoons and evenings on those days are usually easiest. I take care and safety very seriously, and always appreciate instructions if you have special requirements or expectations for your pet. If I’m housesitting, I will treat your home like it’s my own. If I’m doing drop-in visits or walks, I will treat your pet with the attention and care they deserve!
“Ashley is great! This was our first time leaving our kitten for a short weekend. She was patient and flexible with him, even when he was stubborn about where he wanted to eat. Thank you!”

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and they were my full responsibility. I've had all sizes and breeds of dogs and I love cats just as much! I love going on long walks and even going to the dog park with your lovely furbabies. I love wrestling and playing with them but also appreciate the cuddlers just as much. I am punctual and responsible, if your babies don't seem 100% I will notify as soon as possible, to ensure they are taken care of if needed. I love animals and will be sure that they are happy and healthy on my watch. Any special needs they have I will happily fulfill those as well. I can't wait to meet your special babies!
