“This is our second time using Cristina and we are just as impressed and thankful for her detailed and loving care as we were the first time around. She handled our older cats incredibly well, and had no issues administering medication. She even fed our bunny while we were gone. Cristina goes above and beyond! We will definitely use her again.”
“Repeat client here! Hon does great with my two cats and even notes the slightest change in behavior! I’ve always come home to two happy and healthy cats, though, I guess they still miss their human. Hehe. Hon is exceptional with my senior cat in being patient with him and knowing when to leave him be or to see if he’s willing to come out of his hidey-hole. :)”
“Brittany was amazing! Our cat, Ziggy, is not very comfortable with other people and can be difficult, but she handled it so well. We really appreciate her patience with Ziggy!”
“Megan always does an awesome job with all of our 5 cats and fish! She leaves us notes and pictures and lets us know how everything is going, which makes us feel very secure while we are away. Thanks Megan!”
“Thank you Mika for taking care of our boys! They are very needy and you handled them wonderfully. Thank you for being so accommodating and we look forward to booking with you again in the future if you would like.😊”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and currently have two cats, one that requires oral medication twice daily. I've also worked for a private pet sitting company before. I work early mornings to early afternoon on the weekdays and on weekends I occasionally work, but it's few and far between when that occurs. I have previously pet sat at client's homes by walking, feeding, giving medications, and socializing with cats and dogs alike. I would spend anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour to make sure your fluffy family members are well taken care of.
“Holly was a wonderful cat-sitter! She was speedy in her communications, took good care of Milton, and went out of her way to facilitate a key exchange. I highly recommend her, and I'll be asking her to take care of Milton again in the future!”
“Yasmine has been taking care of my cats for multiple visits now. I feel very secure leaving cat care in her hands. Even my shy kitty manages to come out for her!”
“Shivani was very thoughtful and kind in her care of our dogs! She sent great pictures of them smiling up at here so we know they were well cared for and loved. She communicated well and was on time and responsible. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Alexis was a phenomenal sitter! She watched our cat, Miso, for a week while we were on vacation. She spent substantial time playing with and caring for him, and she sent thoughtful updates each day. I could tell Miso grew incredibly comfortable in her presence. Also, she kindly swept and brought in packages for us, which was by no means expected but shows the extra care she puts into her clients. I highly recommend her and will certainly be booking her again in the future!”
“Hannah was great taking care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She texted, and every day we received pictures of our two shy cats, accepting her from the first visit. Hannah is trustworthy and reliable, deserved honest recommendation.”
“Alex did a wonderful job watching my cat! She was very responsive and gave daily updates during each visit. Can tell she really loves animals and will take good care of your pets.”
“Megan is absolutely fantastic!! She watched our cats, Belle and Scout, while we were on vacation. Each day we received text message updates and pictures. Megan is reliable, kind-hearted and genuinely cares about the well-being of our pets. My husband and I were apprehensive leaving them, but Megan made the experience so pleasant-we trust her completely! We will definitely be reaching out to Rover, and Megan, the next time we go away!”
About: I have spent time and taken care of my husband's family's dogs over the years. It is delightful to meet new pups, friendly or shy, and to get to know their personality over time. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule. I can walk or drop-in on your pup anytime with 1-2 days' notice. Can't wait to meet you pet! Your pet's safety is of the highest priority for me. I will let you dog introduce themselves to me first and treat them with respect and kindness.
“Hannah did an amazing job for us taking care of Calvin. We were anxious about getting a new pet sitter and Hannah’s calm and thoughtful approach put us at ease while we were away for three nights. Her communication was thorough and she spent lots of time playing with Calvin and sharing pics while we were gone. We highly recommend her.”
About: I currently have 6 dogs of my own and love nothing more than taking care of them! I have experience with all breeds from working at multiple doggy daycares. I also have trained all of my own dogs! I currently work part time feeding horses in the early AM, so I have free time during the day to help animal parents take care of their babies! I can fully care for animals in other people’s homes, with 6 of my own dogs I could not accommodate more unfortunately! I take pride in my work and taking care of animals is one of my favorite things to do.

Our fur babies were in great hands with Brittany! She was able to get both kitties out for meal time, play time, and pets. She was very punctual, communicative and went above and beyond to make sure the kitties were well taken care of while we were away. Will 100% reach out again!

Christian was a fantastic cat sitter! He was always punctual and incredibly easy to communicate with - quick to respond and very accommodating to all of our requests. He made sure our cats were well taken care of each day, from mealtimes to playtime, refilling their water, keeping their litter box clean, and even leaving the TV on for them just the way they like it. We especially appreciated all the photos he sent during each visit - it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our cats were happy and comfortable with him. Highly recommend Christian!
