“Watching my cat clan is basically a full-time job, so I’m impressed! 😂 Alexis handled all of their different personalities, attitudes, and general cat chaos like a pro. I got updates, everyone was happy and well cared for, and my house was still standing when I got back — a win all around! I would absolutely book again and definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Misty did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She was available for a last minute holiday booking and worked around my schedule to come over to meet my cats. She was super communicative during her visits and sent adorable photos of my cats. She took great care of my pets and my home. I'll definitely rebook and recommend Misty to other pet parents.”
“Alexandra is awesome! She made my trip away from home stress free and took great care of my two cats for me while I was gone. She has excellent communication skills and works to make sure you are reassured while away!”
“I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Lauren - she does SUCH an amazing job. I have two cats with more complicated meal needs/dietary set-up and she handled everything flawlessly. She maintains incredible communication and provided me with detailed updates with plenty of pictures that alleviated any anxiety I had being away from my babies. It is so obvious how much she cares, and she went the extra mile to make my kitties feel comfortable and ensure they were happy & healthy with each visit. She is exactly the kind of sitter you want taking care of your pets!!”
“Cindy was amazing! One of my cats is very shy with people and during her time she was able to get close and friendly with her. She updated me on the progress with them every day with cute pictures. Very thoughtful and is very flexible!”
“Alexis was a great caregiver for my sweet, old cat. On the first day, when Kippy did not appear to get her food and meds, Alexis searched and found her hiding place, thus ensuring Kippy got what she needed that morning. Alexis’s kind and gentle demeanor soon made Kippy lose her fear and she began greeting Alexis at the door. I would definitely hope Alexis was available the next time I need Killy care.”
“Justine was absolutely wonderful. My cat is very shy, and usually hides from Catsitters and other people she doesn’t know. She did not hide from Justine, which I see as a major good sign. Justine also made a game with my cat of hiding the treats I said to give her so my cat could find them, which helped keep my cat entertained. I would absolutely hire Justine to watch my cat again!”

About: Hi! I’m Parvin, a data scientist who works from home and a true cat lover. 🐱❤️ I had a wonderful cat named Piorot for a year. He was a beautiful Persian and British mix, and he completely made me fall in love with cats and their unique personalities. Although I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I have experience taking care of my friends’ cats while they are traveling. Since I work from home and live by myself, I can provide a quiet, comfortable, and peaceful environment with plenty of attention and companionship for your cat. I would be happy to host your cat in my home, or I can provide drop-in visits at your home while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel confident that your cat is safe, comfortable, and loved when you’re traveling. I’ll treat your little angel with lots of love, patience, and care, just as I would my own. 🐾 I’d love to meet you and your kitty and help make your time away a little more worry-free! ❤️ I work from home as a data scientist, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up with an Akita German Shepherd mix who taught me patience, confidence, and how to read dog personalities. I used to help out at a small local rescue on weekends, mostly walking dogs and giving them baths, and it made caring for animals feel second nature. I’m gentle, reliable, and always treat pets like they’re my own. Your pet will be in loving hands with me. I’m available on weekdays during most of the day starting from today Oct 17th to Oct 23rd. I have a week off of work and am looking forward to my bookings! When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar as possible. I start by following the owner’s instructions closely such as feeding schedules, litter or potty routines, favorite toys, and any specific quirks or habits. I make sure the home stays safe and tidy, double checking doors, gates, and food portions so nothing is overlooked. I spend quality time with each pet based on what they enjoy, such as playtime, slow cuddles, or quiet company. I also give updates with photos so owners always know how their pets are doing. My goal is to make their home feel just as comfortable and secure as if their person were there.
“She did an amazing job! Loved all the love and attention I for the animals that I could easily see come through in the photos. I’ll definitely use her next time I need to travel!”

I have had birds for 10 years as well, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 6 years old, from cat sitting to owning my own at 16. Now that I have moved to my own place I now have two more kitties. I am also the known and go to cat sitter and person to ask questions regarding cats in my neighborhood and friend group.

I make sure to get all history and important info regarding any animals I will be taking care of l, from any medications to any illnesses I make sure to take all the info so I can look out for any concerns, cats are pretty good at hiding any discomfort so I try to make sure I listen and pay close attention to them.
About: I was an obedience instructor in high school, and took my Sheltie, Mistie, to earn our CD at dog shows. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and feel like I trust them more than people. I’ve never met a dog I was afraid of - bring on your “terrifying” pittie, we’ll be besties within an hour. I’m also great with the teeny, tiny dogs - I’m calm and soothing which puts them at ease. I work part time in Baltimore, so I am available most of the time! I love going on walks and exploring. I also love cuddles on the couch, as well as a fast-paced game of fetch! I will obsessively keep your baby in a leash when we are outside, and well as keep him/her away from other dogs, while out-and-about.

Misty once again exceeded our expectations. 💕Unfortunately the week before we had to leave for an out of town wedding, Ellie had come down with double ear infections that required her to get ear drops twice a day. Misty assured us that she would have it under control and we trusted her based on all of experience with her. She kept us up to date on how both girls were doing while we were away. And Ellie looks and is acting like her self before her ear infections. We highly recommend Misty to everyone we know. She is the best in the business!😺🏆
We had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth! She was incredibly communicative, always on time, and left everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, she took excellent care of our kitties and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter!
We recently booked Mikayla to care for our two cats while we were away, and she did a fantastic job. One of our cats is very social and easygoing, while the other is much more anxious and cautious with new people, so I’m always nervous leaving them with someone new. Mikayla handled both of them so thoughtfully and professionally. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly paid attention to the details of their care. We came home to two happy and well cared for cats, which is honestly the best feeling after traveling. I also really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter.
Ariana took care of our 17 year old cat for over 3 weeks while we were away. We are relatively new to this area and were a little reluctant to let someone we didn't know visit our house and take care of our cat. We feel very lucky for finding Ariana. She did a wonderful job taking care of Dashy and communicating with us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter.
Haley took wonderful care of our two kitties, Miami and Virginia, through drop-in visits. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly caring, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Thank you, Haley, for taking great care of them. We would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to work with her again.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
