Kyra did an amazing job taking care of my three cats while I was out of town. She even got my cranky old man cat to play a little bit with her which isn’t something just anyone manages! All three of my kitlets are quite the characters, and Kyra somehow captured their personalities in the photo updates she sent. I’ll definitely be hiring her again when I have to be away from home.

5 stars for Kylie! She send detailed updates and anecdotes along with photos every day. She was prompt, polite, communicative, and so easy to work with. She went above and beyond to take care of my two cats. Would definitely book again!

Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!

Kay was a wonderful sitter for my three cats for my last minute trip out of town. The photos and notes she left in her reports made it obvious she was paying attention to each of their very different personalities and preferences and that even my very human-selective older cat was comfortable with her. If she is available, I will absolutely hire her again.

Meghan was great with my cats and dogs. She was very professional and took notes at our meet and greet. She didn't have to ask any questions while caring for my pets. She also didn't send an overabundance of pictures, usually just one picture of each animal.

Katharine was fantastic! She watched Winston for a few days and took great care of him - making sure he got plenty of walks, had everything he needed, and was well looked after the entire time. She also provided thoughtful updates, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with Winston again.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life of all sizes. I grew up with a great pyranees/ border collie and have a dog of my own who is a dachshund. I dog sat for my neighbor, friends, and relatives frequently. I also have experience in sitting for cats as well. I can also help your dog learn new tricks! I taught my dog how to sit, stay, lay down, paw, roll over, follow, and wait all within 6 months. I am currently a part-time employee and have a dog of my own, so I have plenty of time and experience in pet care to give your furbaby the care they deserve! I’m flexible to what they need. Whatever needs you have for your furbaby I can meet! My dog is very particular, so I am patient, willing and understanding to what your pet needs.

Fergus (our cat) loves Virginia. He never purrs for anyone the way he purrs for her. When we got home today after being away for several days, my husband heard Fergus meowing through the door before we entered and said to me, "I pretty sure he's meowing 'Virginia! Virginia!' He's going to be so disappointed that it's us!" Virginia is great with Fergus, very kind to us, and has been just a perfect pet sitter.

Fantastic cat sitting service provider. My cat came down with a sudden allergy just before I left on vacation. She was willing to apply medicine on him each day and provided updates and even drove to pick up a cat medicine that was mailed to the wrong address. She’s very nice and friendly and my skeptical cat warmed up to her quickly. Would absolutely recommend.

Cynthia did a fantastic job taking care of my cat! She made sure she always had water, a clean litter box, and a little play time. She updated me with each visit and gave a thorough report card to let me know how things were going. I would definitely recommend Cynthia as a cat sitter and book her for future trips.

Abigail was very attentive and I would definitely entrust my pets with her care again. I would say she went above and beyond the call of duty because my phone got stolen on my out-of-country trip and this was before I had had a chance to send her pet care instructions, which I could not do until I replaced my phone. She could easily have just abandoned the job but she did all the things a responsible and caring person would do in such a situation (like calling emergency contact etc., since she couldn’t reach me). I felt so so horrible about that but it all worked out, thanks to Abigail!

Aubrey once again has taken the absolute best care of our kitties. I am so grateful to know that my cats are not only in the care of someone capable and caring, but that the kitties love her so much they are excited to see her when she comes to visit. I am always impressed by Aubrey’s thoroughness in cleaning and note-taking. I can’t ask for a better pet sitter.
