“Catherine was wonderful! I hired her for drop-in visits for my 4 cats, including a diabetic cat who she gave insulin. She was very kind, sweet with the kitties, and even took the bags of litter out to the trash even though I told her she didn’t need to do that (it’s a bit of a walk to the dumpster.) I’m very happy I hired her for my trip :)”
“Lynette was fantastic with our fur babies. Even our super senior doggo never missed a beat while we were away. Also, she is a cat whisperer... Our very attitudinal cat fell in love with her instantly (might have had something to do with the treats). She sent pictures and a visit summary at every visit and was very professional throughout the entire engagement.”
“Susan has been absolutely fantastic as a dog walker! She is reliable, punctual, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. She always provides updates after walks and goes the extra mile to make sure my dog is happy and well cared for.”
“Cecilia was great ! very responsive and committed, she genuinely cared about taking good care of our cat, and my shy cat warmed up to her. Would definitely recommend and book her services again when needed.”
“This was my first time using this app and also first time leaving my cat for longer than a day, so I was slightly uncertain about the whole process. But Dee Dee was wonderful in taking care of her. She followed every instruction carefully, very timely, thorough, and kept us updated every day (with great pictures, I will be saving them!). So, would definitely recommend!”
“Excellent! Ken was responsive, friendly, reliable and accommodating. He took care of the food and water for our cat, collected mail for us and even retrieved an unexpected package delivered while we were on vacation. Definitely recommend.”
“Jasmin was wonderful all around. She was great with providing updates, following directions and making sure my animals were well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter.”
“She took care of my Kitties last minute, and one of them I adopted a week ago and they weren't quite on hospitable terms yet. She allowed them to interact gently while being ready to separate in case of throwing paws. She also followed special feeding directions for my elderly cat who needs stuff mixed in and her pate in an extra soupy mash.”
“Mary is a true professional and exemplary at her job. Clearly loves what she does. I felt so confident in her taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. Her execution and detailed reports give me peace of mind and she even watered our tomato plants, brought in our mail, and took the garbage to the curb. Her photos were adorable and I enjoy that she took time to play with them and earn their trust. Cannot recommend her more.”
“Rene did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Max! She was always on time, fed him and gave him his medication, and lots of attention. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned as well. We will definitely be booking with Rene again in the future!”
“Sara did a great job with our boys! They’re hiders and very shy, but she got them fed, watered, scooped, and gave them her time and attention. What more can we ask for? Will definitely rebook in future. Thank you Sara!”
“Sandra was awesome. She sent me updates and pictures after every visit. She treated Cleo as she was her own pet. She was a wonderful caretaker. Definitely will have her take care of Cleo again. Thank you, Sandra!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 2000 and cats since I was 8. From kitten, puppies to senior dogs and cats, I love them all. I will care for your dog like they were my own. I currently work from home everyday. I can walk dogs before work, pet sit all day, or watch them in the evening or overnight. I am available for long stays as well. I have no pets at this time so your pet can be comfortable and roam around freely. I can feed, play with and give lots of attention.
About: I foster kittens to help find homes for them as well. I love cats. I have four cats of my own. Two adults and two teen cats. I do this because i enjoy cats. Ive also taken care of other friends kittens while away for vacation. Im home 3x a week. So on my days off i can be with your pet all day. Also can just drop by to just feed or walk I have two litter boxes. Also have a jungle for cats. They will have lots of toys and unlimited dry food and wet food as well. But please provide if you know they are picky or special diet.
“Alyssa is truly the Best! Mia, my English Bulldog, has the attitude of a teenage girl, and isnt a morning pupper, Im positive some days she just doesnt want to move from her fluffy bed! Alyssa is amazing with her!”
About: Growing up I was always dog sitting while my friends were babysitting. My neighbors keep requesting I come back to them because of my flexibility and commitment! I can get along with any type of dog due to my understanding of dog psychology and my addiction to dog training shows. I hope to one day gain experience in becoming a dog trainer so I can help families have a more balanced well rounded companion. I am always eager to help out on short notice. I’m also flexible and willing to do anything you ask me to do. I take pet and home safety extremely seriously, I strive to be someone you can trust in your home and with your dog. I can’t wait to meet new doggies and dog owners! I’m currently volunteering part time at the Holy Cross Hospital but I have plenty of extra free time to hang out with your doggies! I understand how important it is to feel comfortable having someone in your home while you’re away. I strive to ensure everything stays clean, safe, and secure for your family. I am willing to do additional house service such as overnight stays if your dog gets anxious at night, plant maintenance, or take care of any other critters you have around!

Dee Dee saved our vacation as she was able to watch our cat last-minute on a holiday weekend after our care fell through. She was responsive to my messages and provided excellent care to our cat, who was being left home alone for the first time. While he was slightly annoyed at us for leaving, he was well fed and emotionally and physically stimulated while we were away, as demonstrated by how put together and not destroyed our house was when we returned. We will definitely use Dee Dee again when we go out of town!
Lynette took care of 3 of my cats. One needed eye drops, one needed pills and the third just needed lovies. She did a good job at administrating the medicine! My cats were happy overall and were taken care of very well. Food, water, litter were cleaned at a timely manner. She provided written update each visit with lots of pictures too! Thank you!
We loved having Tim look after our cat for the week! He was so kind and patient with our very senior furball. On top of the time he took to give lots of love and playtime, Tim kept perfect track of meds and food. What’s more—was so nice in managing a few bouts of ‘tummy trouble’. We would totally book him again!
Anna has been wonderful with our pup for drop-in visits. She’s a great communicator, always keeping us updated and making us feel at ease while we’re away. He can be shy with new people, but he warmed up to Anna surprisingly quickly, which says a lot. We’ve had a really positive experience and absolutely recommend her.
Susan has been absolutely fantastic as a dog walker! She is reliable, punctual, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. She always provides updates after walks and goes the extra mile to make sure my dog is happy and well cared for.
Hope always takes great care of our pets, follows our care instructions, and communicates timing and needs. We love having Hope care for our pets when we can’t be home as they are always happy and well cared for when we return. This is not the first time we’ve booked with Hope and it won’t be our last. Thank you, Hope!
Cassandra was very kind and gracious during our meet and greet. She is very knowledgeable about cats and their peculiar behaviors. She kept me updated with Matilda's daily eating habits and water intake. I was well at ease having Cassandra care for my sweet baby. I will definitely use her again.
