“Christina did an awesome job checking in with my cat and dog while I was out of town for work. She sent me photos and updates and my shy-at-first cat quickly warmed to her.”


“Barbara did such a wonderful job watching our kitty! She sent us tons of videos and photos from each visit, and she also gave us detailed notes about her time with the cat. We never like leaving our cat, but Barbara really put us at ease—she’s a wonderful sitter.”


“McKenzie is the best!! Even my shy kitten LOVES McKenzie! I’ve had her come check on the several times over the last year and she’s always super communicative and sweet! My two cats adore her and she’s so patient with my clingy boy, she even picks him up and carries him-his absolute favorite. Thanks, McKenzie!”


About: I have grown up with large dogs, specifically Great Pyrenees, and cats since birth. This early experience gave me a great understanding of animal body language and I feel confident when forming relationships with new animals. In addition, I am comfortable with pets of all sizes (big pups welcome!) From brushing to administering medication, I am experienced in providing everything your pet needs to thrive. I am currently working full-time from home and would love to walk/check-in on your pet during my mid-day break! Additionally, I will be available in the mornings before 8am and after 4pm. I am available most weekends anytime of day. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I would be happy to care for your pet in yours. I prefer to learn the rhythms and routines that you have with your pet so that I can create the most comfortable and consistent experience possible.

“Emily was so phenomenal in her communication to me and made sure to play with the cats and give them love. She greatly decreased the anxiety I had leaving them and I couldn't vouch for her more !!”


“Katelynn was great! She communicated well throughout our trip, updated us on how the cats and dogs were doing, kept track of their activities, and sent plenty of pictures! Hope to use her again in the future!”


“Rachel has been visiting Luke about once a week for awhile now. She even put neosporin on his paws when he was being treated for a sore. So happy I have someone to trust my pup with!”


“Stormy did an excellent job as usual taking care of our kitties. She communicates with you each time to make sure if there are any problems, she gets them solved or if there is anything else she can do to help. Best pet sitter ever!!!”


“Julia is an amazing sitter! Both my cats love her, and she provides wonderful care. One of my cats is usually very shy with most people, but she loves seeing Julia!”



“No words can express my gratitude! I had a sitter cancel without explanation less than a week before a long international trip! I scrambled to find someone to care for my big baby. Lots of sitters were nice but Yuhan was the only person that got eye-to-eye with Abrita and truly engaged with her. She communicated well, made me feel comfortable and went above and beyond. She’s amazing!”


“Marketa is a wonderful sitter! She cares for all 3 of my fur babies while Ive been on vacation and also long day trips. She’s great dogs and cats! They adore her!”



“Dana is great, and I feel so comfortable leaving my pup knowing she'll be well taken care of during her midday visit! Love the notes and pictures too. :)”


About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life. I believe dogs have as big as a heart as humans do and should be treated equal to us. I've owned every single pet possible growing up and understand what it takes to show the proper affection an animal needs. I currently work from home so I’m available all day every day. I have two cats at home that I care for so I can not currently board any animals. I believe you should gain an animals trust fully when entering a new space with them. Showing them that you’re not a threat and you’re a provider and friend is the best course of action.

“Was amazing with our two cats (especially with our fiesta kitty) and totally appreciative of her spending time with them as well! :) Will defs book again with her!”


About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring years of hands-on experience with a variety of pets. I currently have two cats of my own and my family has three wonderful dogs, a Boxer, a Yorkie, and an Australian Shepherd, so I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and temperaments. Additionally, I’ve been a foster parent to over a dozen animals, helping them transition to their forever homes with the love and care they needed to thrive. This experience has taught me to handle a wide range of pet behaviors, from high-energy dogs to more timid or anxious pets, ensuring they feel safe and cared for in any environment. I’m also bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish, so if you have any bilingual pets, I’ve got them covered! Whether it’s for a walk, playtime, or sitting, I focus on providing personalized care for every animal, treating them with the same attention and affection I would give my own pets, and my pets are my life! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, and I’m available all day Thursday through Sunday. The weekends are when I’d have the most free time! I focus on maintaining a familiar environment to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I will try to follow the instructions you’ve given me to the best of my ability so your baby does not feel scared or uncomfortable.

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life. I had a beautiful dog Dior that means the world to me. I love being around dogs and the joy and company they give. I work as a teacher during the day and I’m usually home any other time. I love coming home to my dog and spending time with her at home or at the park. I have a small backyard. I have a 2 year old female dog that’s fix. She is very friendly and love playing with other dogs. I also have a crate if your dog is crate trained.

About: Hi! I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their companions are in caring, trustworthy hands — and that’s the exact peace of mind I strive to provide. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. Whether it's administering medication, following a feeding schedule, or just offering lots of affection and playtime, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m also comfortable handling last-minute changes, special instructions, and multiple pets. Clients appreciate my dependability, clear communication, and genuine bond with their pets. I know how valuable it is to keep owners updated and reassured while they’re away — and I take pride in going the extra mile to make both pets and their humans feel at ease. I would love the opportunity to bring my calm, attentive care and love for animals to your team. Thank you for considering me, and I hope to speak with you soon! I work from home Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and I’m in the office for part of the day on Mondays and Thursdays (about 4–6 hours) and I can leave earlier if needed on a case by case. My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets the love, attention, and care they deserve throughout the day. I have over 10 years of pet sitting experience, taking care of my neighbors and friend's pets, doing long term and short term fostering pups through rescue that need a little extra TLC as well as my own foster fails. Seniors have a special place in my heart as my two senior babies passed last year. Every pup is different in what they need during a stressful time and I am great at those cues to be able to provide them with all the showering of love they could want or the space they need until they get more comfortable. I take pleasure in filling in those gaps - keeping their routine, loving on them, playing with them in the house or yard, giving them treats, taking them for walks etc. Your babies will be treated how I would expect someone to love and respect my babies.

Adrielys G.
“Adrielys is absolutely amazing with animals! When I broke my leg, she took care of my Maltese, Teletubby, every single day for 5 months, showing incredible dedication and care. Teletubby, who can be pretty particular, instantly bonded with her. It's like she has a natural gift for understanding and connecting with pets. I always felt at ease knowing Teletubby was in such loving and responsible hands. Adrielys truly treats every animal like her own, and I can't recommend her enough as a pet caregiver”

Kim has known Maple since she was 4 months old and has had amazing patience for puppy behavior and into the rebellious teenage phase we’re currently in. We will without a doubt continue using Kim!”
