“Giovanna took care of our cats for 3 weeks and I never once had to worry about them! I knew they were getting the attention and care they need. I would definitely rehire her in the future!”


About: I work remote so am home 100% of the time to be with your pet. Experienced with rescues, needy dogs, assertive dogs, dogs that don’t get along with other dogs and need separation, dogs that need crates and dogs that need snuggles. I have you covered. I work from home so pet care is a priority and a luxury for me! I have experience in rescues and know how to ensure every pet in my home feels safe, secure and welcome. I have a very large fenced yard plus XL crates if your pet requires. I am dog savvy and consistently will be ensuring your dog is comfortable and safe.

About: Hi! I’m Lucy, and I specialize in gentle, stress-free care for cats and small dogs — with a calm, attentive approach your pets will love. My journey with cats began in 2004 when my family and I found a mother cat and her kittens in our yard. Since then, I’ve personally cared for cats of all ages and personalities — playful, shy, independent, and cuddly. I’ve also grown up with dogs since I was born, and I enjoy offering the same level of thoughtful, loving care to pups with calm temperaments. Whether it’s a cat curled in a sunny spot or a little dog who needs quiet companionship, I create a safe, peaceful environment for them to feel secure and happy. 🐾 What I offer: Drop-in visits with feeding, litter box/potty care, gentle play, and affection Calm, respectful care with no large or high-energy dogs Medication administration (if needed) Daily updates and photos Extra love for seniors, kittens, or special-needs pets I’m patient, reliable, and committed to keeping your pets' routines as close to normal as possible while you’re away — because they’re not just pets, they’re family. Let’s chat! I’d love to learn more about your furry companions. 🐾 I'm available for drop-in visits between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday, and also offer weekend availability upon request — perfect for mid-day feeding, litter box or potty care, and quality companionship. Whether your cat is independent or affectionate — or your small dog is calm and cuddly — I tailor each visit to their unique personality and needs. I'm a reliable, gentle sitter with a calm presence and lots of love to give. Need a sitter during your workday or a short weekend trip? I'd be happy to care for your cat or small dog while you're away. I prioritize creating a calm, secure environment during every visit. By carefully following care instructions and maintaining your cat’s — or small dog’s — routine, I help reduce stress and keep them comfortable in their familiar space. My hands-on experience with cats since 2004, and a lifetime around small dogs, has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and emotional cues. I respond with sensitivity, respect, and reliability to ensure every pet feels at ease. I believe trust begins with clear, consistent communication — that’s why I always provide honest updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away. Every animal is different, and I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, seen, and well-loved in your absence.

About: I don’t just take care of the family furry paw members. I watch over the whole house. I make sure everything is taken care of while they are away.

It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs. If I’m at the clients home, they get lots of love and attention. I make sure they get their playing time in multiple times a day before bed time. If it’s not to hot I do try to squeeze a walk in even if it’s a small one.

“"I recently had the pleasure of working with Sara, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the very first meeting, it was clear that she truly cares about dogs and their well-being. Sara took the time to get to know my dogs, Zoey & Buster, and made sure to understand their routine, preferences, and any special needs. Sara did two drop in visits each day & besides providing loving care for my dogs, she watered my plants, brought mail in, and made sure the house was ok. I received regular updates and adorable photos that put my mind at ease. It was evident that Sara provided my senior dogs the human touch they need which left my dogs happy and content when I returned home. I highly recommend Sara to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Her passion for animals and attentive care made all the difference for me and my two senior dogs. Thank you so much for your wonderful service!"”
