She took good care of my cats, followed instructions well and I didn't have to constantly check in to make sure my cats were ok. Great communication and Hayleigh was friendly. My cats seemed happy when I got home.

Absolutely amazing! Bliss was an amazing communicator, gave great updates, and took really great care of my kitty! She really went out of her way to care for him! My cat is very shy and is very anxious around new people but he LOVED her and warmed up to her the second she walked in. He has never done this with anyone, it’s was so cute and sweet and im glad he found another friend to trust! Cannot recommend her enough!

About: I've had the privilege of caring for dogs for over a decade. I have experience administering medication, walking, cleaning and playing with puppies and middle age dogs. I am a full time artist with quite an open and flexible schedule. I am available during the day during the week and flexible during weekends. I love playing and spending time with my own cat, catering to her needs and spending time together. I have no issue crating other's dogs if asked.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs, giving me experience with puppies, basic training, daily exercise, and understanding different personalities and needs. I also regularly cat sit and house sit, maintaining pets' routines, keeping litter boxes clean, and providing plenty of attention and care. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I'm committed to making them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Since I've grown up with dogs and regularly cat sit and house sit, I'm used to planning my day around pets' needs and maintaining their normal routines. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, take dogs on walks, clean litter boxes, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. I treat every home with respect and am happy to help with small household tasks while you're away.

Emily has been an absolute godsend for me. She’s checked in on two cats for me while I’ve been out of town, both with very different temperaments, and gotten along wonderfully with both. The peace of mind I have knowing that she’s checking in on my pets is amazing. She sends great pics too!

I can't recommend Priscila enough! She was an incredible help, and even though I reached out without much notice for the time I'd be out of town she was able to accommodate the request to make check-in visits on my cat. She was quick to respond whenever I had a question, and even sent photo updates of my cat from her visits :) I'm very grateful for her help, and will definitely be reaching out to her the next time I need a sitter!!

About: I've been caring for pets for over 11 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, multi-dog households, and pets who may need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is always to provide safe, compassionate care so pet parents can have peace of mind while they're away. I currently have availability for walks and drop-in visits in the afternoons and evenings, with additional flexibility on certain days. I strive to provide dependable care and will always communicate promptly regarding scheduling and updates. Safety is my top priority. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and exercise needs. I take time to build trust with every animal and always use secure leashes and harnesses during walks. In my home, pets are supervised and introduced thoughtfully based on temperament and comfort level. I believe in treating every pet like a member of the family.

Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him

About: Rescued two outside cats before and have formed bonds with usually shy dogs/cats. Don’t have much experience with training animals, but will make sure they have enough exercise when needed! I work Monday, Wednesday-Friday from 6am-4pm, so while mornings are very limited, the afternoon/evening walks are all open. I would be more than happy to adding your furry family member to the friends list and be able to take them outside! Making sure the water is filled and they are fed on time when I’m there. If it’s too hot out, outside time would be limited to potty time, but would be happy to make sure they have time to play inside when I’m there!
