“I was very pleased with Keri's care for our two cats. I appreciated that she took notes during our meet and greet about what we wanted and while we were gone she did everything that we requested, including refilling our backyard bird feeder. She sent notes and pictures that documented what she did and how our cats were doing.”
“Barbara went above and beyond with her care sitting my cat. She spent a lot of time with him every visit and had no issues giving him his medicine. She's great!”
“Hi Shannon was great! She came to meet the dogs ahead of time and review our requests. Shannon was comfortable with them, and they could tell she was a friend. Shannon sent pictures, which was a nice touch. We will request Shannon again without hesitation.”
“Brian was great with Tucker all the way from the meet and greet through the two check ins. He made our anxious dog feel comfortable and his communication is great and proactive. We highly recommend Brian and will be booking him for weekly services going forward!”

“I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care my dogs received from Sarah! Sarah is reliable, kind, and truly loves animals.

My dog was calm and happy when I returned, and I could tell Sarah had made them feel comfortable and cared for. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and my parents instilled in me to care care of them as young as 7. I have my own pets now, and I also sometimes foster rescue dogs for an organization. I typically have a slow introduction for any newcomer so they can get used to the household smells and sounds in a private room without being overloaded with the house residents. I've had elderly dogs before, so I can administer oral or ear medicine, diapers, and shots. I work fulltime, but I work from home two days a week. In addition to the days I'm working in office, I'm usually gone for about 7.5 hours. All dogs go outside around 6 am regardless of the day for first potty and food. I'm usually free on weekends. The only weekend is I play Dungeons and Dragon for about 3-5 hours on alternating Thursdays and Saturdays starting in June. I have a mix of crated dogs and uncrated dogs. All of my dogs are crate trained, but depending on the size of the dog, I will keep smaller dogs out with pee pads so they don't have to hold it the entire day. I have a few rooms baby gated so all uncrated dogs can't get into things they shouldn't. I also have two Ring Cameras on both my front door and side door to keep an eye out for intruders.
“Ally took such good care of my cat while we were away! He can be nervous around strangers but he warmed right up to her and she took great care of him and kept us up to date on how he was doing. She did a great job!”
“Julia was wonderful. My pups can sometimes have trouble warming up to people but they had no trouble at all with her. She was caring and trustworthy. We will definitely be asking for her next time.”
“Sarah was a fantastic sitter for my 3 cats. She was reliable about coming at the same time every day, she hung out with my cats for at least a half hour every day and gave them lots of attention. She took care of everything I asked her to and followed up with a detailed description of what she did and how the cats were doing after each visit. It's such a relief to find someone I trust for the times I need to be away, and I couldn't recommend her more enthusiastically!”
“Rachel was great! She was on time each day and really helped me out when I wasn’t able to handle some of the cat chores myself. She’s very polite and has a great personality. We would absolutely have her care for our cat again and would recommend her to others!”
About: I have years of experience caring for and watching pets of family members. I love animals and animals love me! I am very precise and careful when it comes to animal care. I am available 7 days a week and have no problem spending ample amount of time to ensure your pet is not only cared for, but loved and happy. I am very energetic and outgoing and love to keep pets entertained. I can accommodate any needs while ensuring your pet has fun! I am also very organized, cleanly, and respectful of other peoples’ space. I am willing to go the extra mile: bringing in mail, washing sheets, watering plants, etc. to make your return from travel as relaxing as possible.
About: I have always loved animals and have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 15 years. I worked at a doggy daycare overseeing 10+ dogs a day, while in college. I currently have 2 German Shepherds! I have gaps throughout my day to stop in and check on your furry son or daughter. I am usually always available after 4pm and I am very flexible on weekends. I have a fenced in yard. I can make sure your pet is crated before I leave your home (if needed) and make sure all snacks or poisonous treats are out of reach.

We had a wonderful experience with Angelina! She checked in daily on our two cats and made sure they were well fed and cared for. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear she genuinely enjoys working with animals. We came home to two happy cats which is a testament to the excellent care she provided. Highly recommend Angelina to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!
Keri did all that was asked of her in caring for our two cats, and then went beyond in playing with them with cat toy, bringing out our shy cat who usually hides from anyone new. Our shy cat started showing himself when Keri came, and then joined in the play with the cat toy. I think she cracked his code! Her conscientious and caring work is so much appreciated! She is the best!
Reagan helped us out last minute when we had to take a quick overnight trip this weekend. She took such great care of our two dogs and kept us posted with photos and updates with each check-in so we were able to enjoy our time away knowing they were in great hands!
Abby is great! She made sure my 2 cats were very comfortable and well taken care of. Every visit was on time and on point. She spent extra time with the shy one gaining her confidence, and getting her to eat when she wanted to hide at first. The way my cats responded to her you can tell she is a true animal lover. I highly recommend her services.
