“Jocelyn was great! Provided wonderful updates and was very pleasant to chat with. I knew from the start that our cat was in good hands and Jocelyn kept proving that to be true each day.

“Gabby was awesome with Luna! She agreed to watch Luna despite the fact that it was a really long drive. Gabby took such great care of her—I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Nicole is so nice and flexible in our dropping off time. We had to drop our cat 2 hours late which was almost 10 pm because of long drive with bad traffics. Our female cat is very dependent and usually doesn’t let strangers carry her, but she let Nicole😻 Also Nicole updated us in the morning how our cat was doing. We would love to ask her to take care of our cat again.”

About: Everyone around me knows how much I love pets. I have helped dog sitting my boss’s dog, and as a first timer, I know I did great! I’m working a full time job, I’m ready for anything after working hours and weekends. For occasional home visits, I can make some exceptions depending on my schedule. I myself have a cat, and I haven’t been able to assess how she would react with other pets so I’m holding off on bringing other pets at my place for now. Otherwise, for the clients, I make sure I observe all safety measures and that I’m giving them all the love.
About: I am a retired licensed veterinary technician looking to care for your pet in your home. I have well over a dozen years of experience. I will provide your pet with very good care and lots of fun times. My schedule is very full, so book early to ensure availability. I have a big Jeep for transportation to any appointments that your pet may need. I can no longer provide in my home care until further notice.
About: I am caring, reliable, and experienced with animals. I treat every pet like family, ensuring love, safety, and comfort at all times. I understand how hard it can be to trust a stranger with your fur babies and I will do everything I can to help you feel comfortable and develop a trusting relationship with me. I am currently working part time and love to prioritize time with animals. I will do everything I can to make a request work! I am very flexible. I understand the importance of leashing dogs and only letting them off in safe and enclosed environments. Cats will remain indoors under my care and I am very careful when it comes to opening external doors. I am experienced with escape artists!

About: I’ve had all sorts of animals such as dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, and leopard geckos. I’ve grown my whole life with animals. I have lots of skill with all kinds of animals I am currently a full time student but have a lot of free time during the day due to being online for the school year. I promise to provide the best care for your pets, treating them as if they were my own. I also respect your home and will ensure it’s left in excellent condition. While I don’t offer pet care in my home, I’m fully committed to creating a safe and comfortable experience for your pets in their own environment.
About: I have taken care of pets for family and friends since I was about 12 years old. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, toileting, and loving peoples most beloved family members I work 8am-4:30pm daily so my schedule would be purrrfect for evening/night shifters. I am off weekends so I can be available for all of your pet care needs then! I am currently not offering in home services at this time. I will be able to come to your home to provide whatever services are needed.
About: I adopted my own cat about 7 years ago. I added a dog to our family dynamic also, about 4 years ago. During the summer, prior to owning my own pets, I would regularly pet sit for local families, who needed someone to check in on their furry companion. During the summer and over holidays, my daughter spends a lot of time with her father. This opens up my schedule to add in extra fun activities, like checking in on your pets while you're away. I will follow any instructions given to care for your pet while you're away. Please be as specific as possible, since each pet may need specific care, or have their own routine they're accustomed to.

David N.
“David adores animals, particularly dogs. I am lucky enough to work in an office where we can bring our pets in at different times. My work sometimes requires me to meet sometimes at length with clients, sometimes who are afraid of dogs so I cannot have my dog in the office with me. David joyously offers to take my dog and without being prompted he will make sure he goes out for pee breaks, has water and is kept comfortably contained. He is amazingly kind, professional and trustworthy. I have known him over 2 years and I trust him implicitly.”

Allysa P.
“Allysa, aka Mavis, is a wonderful and caring young woman who regularly prioritizes the needs of animals and others, almost to a fault, over everything else. Every animal I've seen her interact with loves her, she's a real life snow white. She is cautious and considerate. She is also diligent about closing and locking doors behind her. She is going into early childhood education and will give your fur babies the same love and care she will be giving human children down the line. She's got so much love to give, you won't regret giving her a chance!”
