Julie was able to cover last minute and my cat simba had fun playing with her. She cleaned up after the cat and made sure he had enough food and played laser games with him. Another person bailed on me and she was able to come to the rescue at the last minute and feed my starving kitten! Little simba is my fur baby. :3

This was the second time Julie watched my cat Nani, and she was just as amazing as before. She’s easy to communicate with before and during. I came home to a very happy cat! Also, the photos she sends are so good :)

They allowed me to better enjoy my trip! Thank you SO much. I will be hopefully using their services again in the future!

About: Hey hey! My name's Victoria, but friends call me Rev. I moved here a couple of years ago now from Georgia, began pet sitting in April 2024, and it's currently my full-time job! I've been fascinated with animals since a young age, with about ~17 years of experience, mainly with cats. As I've gotten older, I've fallen in love with the human-animal bond, and have become passionate about their care and respecting each one the way they deserve. Regardless of your pet's personality, preferences, or needs, I'm excited to meet, care, and accommodate your little darling with the same love as you would! I hope to hear from you soon 😊! As this is my full-time job, I'm capable of prioritizing my schedule to work for you and your sweetheart(s). I'm always sure to communicate if something may come up during your booking, such as other gigs or obligations outside of work, that way there's total clarity on where and when I'll be in relation to your pet(s). If you're not sure, please feel welcome to ask! If I can fit them into my schedule, even on short-notice or alongside another sweetie, I'm more than happy to see what I can do. I've got the kind of guest attitude you can expect from a typical Southerner! I take the care of another's space very seriously, doing my best to leave things as I found them, and due to a background in housekeeping it's not uncommon for me to do some cleaning before I leave. You can trust to come back to your home just as you left it, if not with less dust than before!

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs my whole life! I have four dogs at home in Wisconsin (golden retriever, black lab, and two German shepherds!). I miss them a whole bunch and would love the opportunity to hang out and take care of any dogs! As a recent college graduate, I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays throughout most weekdays and weekends. I love spending time with dogs and can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. I’m also happy to accommodate your pet’s specific routine whenever possible. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and following owner instructions carefully. I’ll treat your pet like my own, providing a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.

Kate was lovely and flexible about our circumstances. She did a wonderful job taking care of Phyllis, even when Phyllis decided not to show her furry face. Friendly and open demeanor, great communication, everything we could ever want from a pet sitter.

Cynthia was so great with our senior kitties! We needed someone on short notice and she was super responsive and easy to coordinate with. Both of our cats receive medication twice a day so it was super important for us to find someone who was comfortable with that responsibility. Cynthia made sure each one got what they needed and sent us detailed updates. We had an issue with our smart lock during one of her drop ins and she alerted us immediately and came back later that night after it was sorted to make sure our girls were taken care of. Would absolutely use her again in the future!

Stephanie did daily drop in visit for a week for our cat, Fish. She gave him daily pill at certain time every day, cleaned his water bowls, and checked on his litter box. She also shared many photos and videos, which we appreciated. She was friendly and gentle with him and he was very happy to have her around. We could not be happier with her care. We will be booking her again when we go out of town. Thank you!

Samantha was so great with my kitty Garbanzo! I had an unexpected and last minute family trip come up, and she still prioritized scheduling a meet and greet with me before the visit. She had great communication, sent lots of photos, and I could tell Garbanzo was not anxious when I got home. Thank you, Samantha! I would highly recommend her as a sitter.
