“Thank you Holly for checking in on our cat and making sure she was well cared for! I really appreciated the quick replies and photos she provided, will book with her again!”
“WOW! I mean wow! We went on a trip and left our fur baby behind for the first time. Hesitant about leaving him behind but Jeweliana made sure all of our worries were addressed. She sent plenty of updates via messages, pictures and videos. Absolutely wonderful communication and replied incredibly quickly. After the first day I knew we picked the right person to watch our baby. Absolutely going to be a return customer!”
“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”
“Shera was a wonderful pet sitter from my initial request! She responded quickly and answered all my questions. She even did a meet and greet for our sweet Poppy!

We will use her again!”

“Liz is phenomenal! She took excellent care of our two boys while we were out of town. They're usually very skittish around strangers, but warmed up to Liz right away ☺️. She kept us up to date with plenty of adorable photos, and was kind enough to reach out whenever she had a question or concern about our kitties' routines. 10/10, I cannot recommend Liz enough!”
“I know I can always rely on Scarlett and Markie to take care of my kitties! They’re always happy to accommodate my last minute requests, and help out when I need to extend my trip days.

About: Hi there! I have over 3 years of hands-on experience working at Pet Paradise and Dogtopia, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve been a lifelong pet owner—dogs, cats, hamsters, and even snakes! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, your pets will always feel safe and loved with me. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I start and end my days with my own two cats, Anais and Cleo, so I’m already in the rhythm of feedings, walks, and playtime. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, or sitting, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes. I take extra care with things like locking up, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they’re comfortable in their own environment. You can trust that your home and pets will be safe and well cared for.
“Marilyn was always prompt when visiting with my pups. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for their wellbeing. I would totally book with her again and I’m actually looking forward to it. Thank you for everything!”
About: I have had multiple dogs in my life time and love to take care of them and see them happy. I have also dog sat multiple times from a high anxiety Dalmatian to a small cuddly Chihuahua. I currently have a dog of my own who loves walks and is very high energy. I am very patient and love working with all pets. I do work full time but I have a flexible work from home schedule. I am open to early morning and afternoon visits and all the time on the weekends. I am very experienced with high energy animals and have good patients. I love to see your pets happy and healthy. I would never do anything that I was not 100% comfortable in doing. Your pets safety is my number one priority.
About: I worked as a Veterinary technician from 2013-2018. Following this, I worked as a Medical Laboratory Technician at a Veterinary Laboratory from 2018-2022. I currently work remotely for the same Veterinary Laboratory Company. I have a ton of knowledge and experience with Animals! I am a full-time employee working remotely, giving me time to spend with your fur babies! I also do not have any pets at home myself. I always make sure to respect pets and pet owners based on their comfort levels and needs. I own my home with a fenced in back yard allowing time for play and potty breaks. I have years of experienced in pet care so I can quickly be pickup on pets’ social ques and behaviors. During walks I am equipped to properly leashed or always harnessed during walks. If needed I am familiar with lifesaving skills in case of emergencies and can administer medications if necessary.
