“Kind, patient & professional, Coleen went above and beyond to care for our cats. She was very communicative, provided detailed updates, and left our home in great shape. We would recommend Coleen and rely on her to look after our cats again.”


“Fantastic loving care for my 2 dogs! I have a shy senior rescue and a skittish young dog who both take time to warm up to strangers. We scheduled basic check ins/potty breaks over 4 days that they had to be home alone for 8+ hrs each day. The meet and greet went really well and was easy to set up. Each day my pups received a full 30 minutes of attention and loving care. I received MANY photos and videos as well as really awesome communication and updates. Thank you!”


“Amanda always makes me feel more comfortable when I have to leave - I know my cat is in the best of hands! She continually takes some incredible photos and I always return to a happy, healthy cat. ☺️”


“Malika - is extraordinarily caring and expert to take care my cat for the 2nd time. Hope to get Malika’s schedule next time. She developed very good friendship quickly with my cat. Thanks a lot Malika!!!”

“This is the second time I’ve used Rhianna to take care of my two cats. They are very shy, but she got both of them out of their shells and they were looking forward to seeing her in no time. She took great care of my babies and I would use her services again!!”

“Ray came prepared with a list of questions and sent us the photos and videos of our cats that help us feel comfortable while we're away. He genuinely acts to help them and us in any way possible. We'll be glad to work with him again!”


“Jo is absolutely amazing, 10/10 would recommend!! She took perfect care of my two cats and went above and beyond to make sure all of their needs were met. It was a huge weight off my shoulders knowing that they were in super capable hands while I was away. Definitely planning on re-booking with Jo for future travel!”


About: I have taken care of a senior dog for about 5 years now. I have taken care of my lil pup for 4 years. I am currently certified in pet CPR and First aid(certification in photos). I live a active lifestyle and like to hike and take long walks. It is a constant in my life to take care of pets. I care for my own 4 year old Chihuahua/Yorkie mix and my brothers shih Tzu daily. I am available on weekdays after 5pm and all day on the weekends. In my clients homes I can readily walk there pets or let them out into there back yards. I can also crate your pet if that is something you prefer. If you leave feeding or medication instructions do not worry it will be completed and you will be notified.

About: Hi I’m Patrick! I love dogs and have been around them most of my life, I have three of my own named Bubba, Sassy and Neo who I walk every day. I will be very patient and kind with your pup as if they were my own and make sure they’re having as much fun as I’ll be having! I love all animals including cats but sadly I have family that is allergic so that is a no go but I would definitely consider myself a dog person anyway , no dog is too big or too small for me I’ll love em all the same. Id be ecstatic to add ur dogs to my daily routine:) Questions are welcome of course! My schedule is relatively flexible besides taking care of my own dogs. I am somewhat limited in means of transportation since I ride my bike to get around but that won’t stop me from meeting new dogs! If you do chose me to walk your dog we can discuss what would be best for picking them up for the walk and dropping them back off at your home. If your dog is crate trained I have no problem making sure they go into their crate before I leave.

“Isaiah has been taking good care of my cat whenever we are away from home. We have quite busy life schedules. Recently we were away for 4 weeks and I can tell that Buddy was very well taken care of while we were gone. He follows care instructions. He gave Buddy a new toy which he loves. We even think that Buddy is more playful and affectionate after we came home this time. We came home to a very happy cat and a neat house. Isaiah kept our house in good shape after being left for so long. Very good communication which gave me a peace of mind. Highly recommend him!”
