“Peri did a great job checking in and taking care of my three cats! She did exactly what we needed and made being away from our babies easier!! Would definitely recommend!”


“Brandy was great! She spoiled my cats while I was away, she provided updates and photos which was so appreciated. Definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs :)”


“We are so so grateful for Sandy!!!! She cared for our baby cat twice a day while we were away. She sent multiple pictures a day, gave daily reports detailing activities as well as mood and food/drink consumption, cleaned the litter box, and spent quality time loving and playing with our cat. I’m always so nervous and sad to leave her, but felt so comforted with her in Sandy’s care. Recommend a million times ????”


“If I had more stars to give, I would. Just as we thought we hit the jackpot with our Charlie girl, we also hit the jackpot with Sarah. To be able to leave your pet, knowing they will be loved and cared for is the best feeling. Sarah did just that and more! Charlie was loved and played with a lot! Her food, water and litter box were tended to and the area was immaculate. I also appreciated that Sarah reached out with questions. She cares enough to ask the details and that’s important. Sarah is the kind of person you want to watch over your pet. She’s the best - hands-down.”


“When Tina came to pick up my keys for her second time cat sitting, my shy kitty immediately ran into her arms. That speaks volumes for how kindly she treats cats. She sent me pictures every day and was in general fantastic! We love Tina!”


“Brooke did an excellent job. The cats seemed to really like her. I would recommend her to other pet owners. I was very pleased with the care , thoroughness, promptness and feedback she gave me the entire time I was gone. It makes leaving home much easier Melissa J”


“I am so grateful and appreciative to Kellen for taking care of my cat Cedar over the winter holidays. He instantly bonded with Cedar and helped put my mind at ease while I was gone. He was always thoroughly communicating with me throughout the visits and updating/adapting along the way like when she had tummy problems and we had to adjust her diet. He was accommodating and understanding to her needs as a deaf cat and really made sure she was well-taken care of.”


“Chentel is awesome! super awesome! very flexible. has good toys. the other dogs at her home are great. Chentel is thoughtful and patient. When i picked up Louie from her place he was happy happy. And he knocked out early which is a plus. i am delighted to have found her.”


“Christian came through for me with a last-minute request. My initial cat sitter had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances and Christian was available same day. He was prompt, trustworthy and listened to all the requests that I had made. Thank you again!”


“Jessica did a great job. She set reasonable expectations and met them exactly. She sent many photos of my one cat and played with her. Jessica also brought in small packages that arrived. Will be booking again”


“Tracy is a very nice, punctual, good with detail oriented person. Having a dog who is epileptic (seizures) can be very stressful at times, especially going on vacation. But finding that right person can make everything feel at ease. I would not hesitate to use her again in the future.”


“Lily did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She communicated with us as requested and kept us updated on how our kitty was doing. Would absolutely recommend her to care for your pet.”


“Rachel really is the absolute best. She hung out with my cats and they loved her. She was so sweet and really knows what she is talking about when it comes to animals. Immediately booked her again for next weekend!”


“Olivia was wonderful with our dogs. She really goes over and beyond what you ask her for your pet care. There was never a moment that I was concerned our two dogs were getting love, care and attention. She keeps you updated with messages and pictures for each visit. I would highly recommend Olivia! And we will be reaching out to her again to take care of Eden and Nailee.”


About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve developed an understanding of their needs, behaviors, and routines. I also have experience babysitting dogs, providing daily walks, playtime, feeding, and providing a comforting presence. From high energy dogs or independent cats, I approach each pet with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for in your absence ❤️ My schedule is currently flexible, so I’m happy to work with your preferred times. Just let me know what you’re looking for, and I’ll do my best to make it work! I live in a pet friendly apartment very close to the susquehanna, so I make sure pets get plenty of walks around city island, bathroom breaks, and playtime both indoors and outdoors to keep them happy and comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I will follow your routines closely to help them feel safe.
