“Took care of my kitties during a long business trip and I felt so much better know how much the cats liked her and the level of care provided :)”
“Liam took great care of my cat I was away in a weekend trip! He gave my cat lots of playtime and attention, he was on time each day, and followed the instructions I left exactly. Couldn’t be happier with the care Liam provided my cat and I’d highly recommend him!”
“This was our first time working with Sydney and we couldn’t be happier that she’s a new friend in our cat’s life! During our initial visit, we could tell that Sydney was such a kind and good person. Through all of the updates and she pictures sent over, we could see that our cat was very happy and felt loved, which is all you can ask for while away.”
“Randi was so personable and trustworthy. She seemed happy to help us. We had no worries while we were gone and received plenty of pictures. She even gave our cat the eye drops that he needed. Was so grateful to find somebody who genuinely cares for all animals!”
“Alexander has been great with my RR’s. They are a handful and large and he is patient. He has been reliable over multiple visits and I don’t hesitate to recommend him.”
“Callie was great! she was responsive, was on time, and the boys loved having her over. would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a cat sitter!!”

“Areatha is great with Anya!”
About: I love all animals and owning dogs, a cat and a rabbit myself, working professionally as a kennel hand and trainer, and caring for some other fuzzy friends during my day-to-day makes me a great choice for most of your doggie day (or evening!) care. I spend lots of time at our local dog park and our own back yard exercising my pups. I have experience professionally training working and hunting dogs, and taking care of puppies and elderly dogs. The main thing I hope to achieve with your dog is to have some fun, get myself some extra exercise and hopefully be a good companion for your dog while you’re away! If you have any further questions or want some references, feel free to message me, thank you! I work as a bartender, so I often have free time during the week and during the day. I like to fill that time with Rover I will be hanging out with your furry friends and try to follow their cues as far as plans go! Each animal is unique and I appreciate when owners clue me in on their favorite hobbies (fetch, tug, etc) or how they like to play.
“Ashton was amazing with my cat! I was a little nervous leaving, but she made the whole experience completely stress-free. She sent regular updates, and I could tell my cat was happy and well cared for. My cat is usually scared and shy with strangers but with Ashton, he was playful and looked very comfortable. It’s obvious Ashton genuinely loves animals and takes the time to make them feel comfortable. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Ashton again next time I need a sitter”
About: I come from a long line of dog lovers and was taught from a young age how to be both caring and firm with furbabies. I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of time to dote on your furbaby. With some advance notice we can craft a perfect play date. I treat my furbaby clients like family. Lots of attention and care. Other than a happy dog, you’ll never know I was in your home.
About: *It’s kitten season! We might have a foster litter in our back room, completely separate hallway with a closed door. If this concerns you, we can adapt and move them* Hello there, My name is Karen (but not 'a Karen,' I swear). I volunteer walking dogs at the local shelter. You never really know what you'll walk into when you go there, so I've learned to be pretty adaptable. I am comfortable with pretty much all pets (but we do live in an apartment so please see bottom section for ones we cannot care for). I also started fostering this year, everything from energetic puppies to FIV+ cats, couch potatoes to zoomie kings-and-queens. Our house is empty right now, and I am not regularly working because of some health issues, so there is a ton of flexibility in my schedule and in our home. I aim to be super accommodating! And I am home often, so your pet won’t be alone much at all. We also have lots of toys, beds, a crate, and snacks, so all you’ll have to bring is food. To me, there is no point in having a pet unless you're going to spoil them. I will do everything possible to make sure your loved one isn't missing you too much. Also, I'm new to this (officially...have tons of dogsitting experience that I can provide references for if needed), so my rates will be a little lower for a couple of months. I am happy to provide my socials if you'd like to see what kind of person I am : ) There are a few pets we’re unable to take. Our apartment can be noisy with people outside, neighbors coming in and out, etc…If your dog is nervous and fearful, those noises can exacerbate that in an already strange situation/new place for them. Please do not book if your dog *barks a lot* or gets nervous easily. We also cannot take two large dogs at the same time, as much as I would really love to! I prefer to do meet-and-greets at my place, too, for this reason…which isn’t a must, just a suggestion : ) I really look forward to hearing from you! My schedule is very open. My house does not have any pets in it right now. I’m totally ready to adapt to your pet’s needs! Generally, I just am very loving to all creatures. I volunteer a lot and am used to many, many kinds of animals. I live in an apartment, so that can be confusing sometimes for dogs who are used to going potty in a yard (leashed potty break and puppy pads are what typically do here), but there is plenty of space to run around in the loft, so playtime is not an issue. My boyfriend Dave and I live together. Occasionally, he might be the person to pick off/drop off instead of me.
About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats and horses, so animals have always been a part of my life! Besides helping out with our own animals, I worked at a dressage barn throughout high school and showed horses throughout college. I have also taken care of family and friend's dogs and cats for extended periods of time. Pets have influenced my entire life and I understand the importance of every pet's health, safety and happiness. Besides caring for my own cat, I have an open schedule to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! My calendar is flexible to meet your pet-sitting needs. I currently do not offer pet sitting services at my home, but I am excited for the opportunity to take care of pets at a client's home. I prefer to meet the pet and go over the pet's needs with an owner prior to the owner being gone, so that I'm aware of the pet's environment and how I can best take care of the pet while their owner is away.
“Avery was great, she gave me updates and shared photos of her time spent with Bailey while I had work commitments, giving her treats and belly rubs. I highly recommend Avery and won’t hesitate if I need her help again soon : )”
“I recently hired Annika to take care of my cat for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! My cat liked her and formed a good connection. Annika’s calm and gentle approach immediately put my cat at ease, and they quickly bonded. Seeing my cat connect with her was reassuring, as his well-being is my top priority. Throughout the pet-sitting period, Annika provided exceptional care ensuring my cat's needs were met. Annika went the extra mile by engaging my cat in interactive play sessions and providing him with affection and companionship. I highly recommend Annika as a cat pet sitter. Her professionalism, genuine love for animals, and ability to form a great connection with my cat were outstanding. Thank you Annika!”
About: Almost all of my experience as a dog owner and sitter is with dogs that have come from shelters or other adopted situations. I have owned “retired” greyhounds that were severely traumatized, I have cared for small dogs with unknown, but clearly extremely difficult, past traumas, and I have stayed and bonded with boxers and pit bulls who are slow to trust but then become bed-hogging cuddlers! Recently, I had my first experience helping train a puppy! I spent five months with a family and their sweet cavipoo house training and leash training. I teach from home and so I am always home! Well, except for the occasional errand, appointment, etc. So, I would love the extra company and the excuse to get out of the house and get some exercise! I live in an apartment building so I do not have a fenced yard. However, I live on Lafayette Park where I walk daily. It is incredibly safe and I have gotten to know many of the pet parents in the building and the neighborhood. I have two five month old kittens that I adopted from a foster home two months ago where they lived with a dog. I am hoping to keep them exposed to other animals so that when I have a larger place, I will be able to expand my family of pets.
“We are a completely neurotic pet family. Joseph was wonderful in his communication and put us at ease. He was great with our dog. We knew the instant we met him our dog was in good hands. Highly highly recommend!!!!”
“Breanna really cared about our elderly cat so he was well cared for. She administered his medication on time and accurately. I will definitely book her for future trips!”
“Lauren was great with my 2 recently rescued German Shepherds. They are a handful but she is very knowledgeable about dogs. They loved her. She sent pictures during her visits that gave me comfort that my dogs were well taken care of. Highly recommend her.”
