Beth was wonderful. She is so sweet with my little cat and figured out right away how she likes to be pet. I really appreciated her sending pics and letting me know everything was ok. She went above and beyond in her care while I was gone and she is always very punctual and responsible. I’m very glad to have found Beth!!

Nyree did an awesome job caring for our senior two dogs and two young cats, while house sitting for us this past weekend. She was reliable, responsible and communicated very well with us. We will definitely use her again!

Kelly absolutely is the best sitter. She was able to calm our puppy and spend lots of quality time with her. The photos she took and sent gave us reassurance our puppy was in good hands. I highly recommend Kelly!!!

Henry was fantastic! It’s the first time he’s cat sit for our three cats/kittens. He was very easy to work with. He spent some time beforehand to give him the lay of the land with house and cats and he managed well while we were gone. Personally, he’s quite a nice guy. Responsible, detail-oriented, easy to talk with. He played and engaged with the cats and kept their feeding schedules and particular tastes well-monitored. We enjoyed him personally, he was great with the cats and was very responsible with household surrounds. We give Henry a top notch rating and would easily recommend him to a friend!

Lauren is the best dog sitter ever! She took great care of our 2 dogs when we went on a 7 day trip in Europe, she kept us updated with photos of what the dogs were doing the entire trip. We highly recommend her.

About: I’ve been able to manage and care for pets since a kid. For some reason dogs love me and the feeling has been very mutual. I work during the day and go to schools on the weekends early mornings. It will be perfect to fill in the blank spots were I feel I’m bored I care for all pets with their safety and health in mind. Treat the pets the same way I would want someone to treat me and

Peyton was a WONDERFUL pet sitter/walker. She was professional and communicative, sending us picture updates of our fur babies. She was respectful to our home and we felt at ease knowing she was taking great care of our dogs and cat. Would recommend booking her for all of your pet care needs.

Ethan took care if my fur baby while we were on vacation and now takes her out for walks. My baby doesn't like anyone but loves Ethan! He makes sure she has enough water and treats when she does a good job. I find him to be not only responsible and reliable but my fur baby loves him too

Avery is a very loving and kind person, not only with people but also with her pets! Her dog Badger is one my all time fav dogs, she gives him all the attention he needs. She will throw that tennis to him forever! She also cares for her cat Butters, who is such a bundle of joy. I have no doubt in my mind that Avery would be the best option for being a pet caregiver

Sam has been walking my dogs now for about three years now. She very quickly became my main dog walker that I trust the most with my dogs. She is always very considerate and professional. She handles them with so much care and love and what I love the most about Fama is how she goes above and beyond for the dogs. She always brings them treats, and sometimes will even offer to take them to a different area, such as a nature preserve or dog park to get them out of the neighborhood and get them a different view. Another thing I love about this young lady is that she genuinely loves animals. It is one of her passions. She isn’t Just in it, for the money, she genuinely loves every single animal that she comes into with. She always has reasonable prices and never changes up her prices on me. She has had the same prices for the past year since I started booking with her. Which is also a plus!

Porfirio is a kind hearted patient person. While I may only have a cat and a plant he’s the person I call every time to feed and water both while I’m gone. I know he’ll go beyond and above to not only feed my cat but give her love while I’m not there to.
