“Alex was amazing at watching our cat for a week while we were away. She was extremely responsive and communicative and took great care of our kitty. We would definitely seek Alex’s help again!”
“Delaney was great. She took care of our little guy, was very conscientious and detail oriented. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and will definitely use her again when the need arises.”
“We are so thankful that we found Elise. She took care of our cat with the utmost care. He is skittish and she did an outstanding job of respecting his space, making him feel comfortable and taking care of his needs. It is clear that she not only cares for cats, but respects them as living beings which we really appreciate. Her arrivals were timely, care was consistent and accurate to our directions. She handled every detail with excellence. Great communication from booking through completion and at every visit. We look forward to having Elise care for our kitty again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“My first booking, and Kayla made me feel at ease about the process. She is easy going and patient with the cats and my pup, and gave me a heads up when his eating seemed off. I much appreciate your care of Augustus, and I would certainly book again if the need arose.”
“Our first time using Rover and we lucked out with Stephani. She was so good about keeping us informed on our cat with photos and updates on how she was doing each day. It puts a pet parents mind at ease to know your fir baby is with someone who obviously loves animals.”
“Richard was an excellent cat sitter and went above and beyond!!! Our two cats were perfectly taken care of while we were on vacation. I especially loved all the great photos accompanying the status updates :)”
“This is the first time Tess cared for my 2 cats. She was terrific. And I am already scheduled with her again! You wouldn’t know she slept here as she is super neat and tidy. She tried to entice the timid cat out with treats and even food bowls to her hiding place behind the washing machine! The cats acted as usual upon my return, reassuring me that Tess was engaged with them, and kept them company during my absence. What more could you want in a cat sitter? Thank you Tess👍”
“Destiny provided perfect care for my two cats. She was accommodating of all my requests and did a stellar job. One of my cats is not the friendliest, but Destiny was able to handle the interactions with patience and understanding. Her updates put me at ease during my vacation, knowing my cats were in good hands.”
About: For a few years, I kept exotic pets like fish and isopods. I've also volunteered at the Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and have spent time looking after the cats and dogs of my friends. I have practically infinite free time before college starts in the fall and my skating season is over, so I have lots of time and energy to make sure your pet has the bet experience possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I'm ready to do anything to keep them happy and healthy. I look forward to meeting the emotional, behavioral, and physical needs of your pet.
