Sarah was great! I was out of town for work for almost a week. Sarah took care of my cats Katie and Winston while I was away. They both warmed to her quickly and she kept me posted on her visits with photo updates. Katie has IBD and requires daily medication. Sarah was able to keep Katie on her medication schedule with no problems. I came home to happy kitties!

Beto is responsive and trustworthy! We hired him just for a quick weekend and I felt totally at ease with him taking care of my cats. He takes excellent pictures that I enjoyed showing off to others. I hope to use him again in the future!

Of all the cat sitters we have worked with in the past, Claire is unquestionably the best. She is super caring and friendly, while maintaining excellent professionalism. Our cat took to her immediately when she came by for the meet and greet, and our little one could be heard purring profusely in the videos Claire sent while we were away. It was wonderful to be able to fully relax and enjoy our trip knowing our special kitty was in the very best of hands. Highly and enthusiastically recommended!

Kirsten did a wonderful job with my cat! My cat is usually timid and doesn’t let people even get close to her, but she came right up to Kirsten and was super comfortable from the start. Will definitely book her again!

Nicholas is a true gem! He keeps Rover professional but friendly, and he made me feel really confident that my Bentley would be well cared for during his visits. I appreciate Nicholas’ timeliness and accountability, and of course, his well-written and descriptive Rover cards (with such cute pics!). I have already re-booked Nicholas- I am so glad that I found such a reliable and kind Rover :)

I cannot say enough good things about Nicole. She is incredibly professional and reliable. She proactively reached out as the visit was approaching to arrange a key drop. She provides thorough care and updates with all visits. She has looked after my cat twice and I will definitely use her again.

Gregory took incredible care of my cat Raja during spring break and bonded with him as soon as they first met. I also had a lot of problems with the country I stayed at going on lockdown, and amongst all of this stress and uncertainty Gregory assured he would take care of my cat no matter what if I couldn't make it back. It all worked out, but his dedication and flexibility avoided me freaking out over my pet's wellbeing during this trying time. Thank you.

Stephen was fantastic! When he came to meet the cats before my trip, he asked whether the cats had any favorite TV shows and I showed him how to pull up bird videos on YouTube. So every visit, he and the cats watched “the bird show.” He sent detailed notes that captured my cats’ personalities and also gave me comfort that they were doing well. And he also sent plenty of photos.

Flynn was great with both my dogs and easy to communicate with. He asked very detailed questions about how to care for my dogs and what I would prefer. He was also very nice and trustworthy. He took a set of keys and promptly returned them after the drop-in visit. I would recommend him!

I’m so glad I found Sam to check in on my cats while I was out of town for 4 days. Even though I have an automatic food dispenser for the cats, I hate the thought of leaving them alone for days on end. He was especially patient with my shy cat and (much to my surprise) was quickly able to coax her out and give her some pets.

Maya is a fantastic pet sitter and has treated our cat, Stella, very well whenever we are out of town. She’s incredibly timely with meals, plays with her a lot, and is always communicative about any needs/questions that arise. She also has a natural rapport with animals that is special to witness. We wouldn’t want anybody else watching our precious fur baby!

About: I have had puppies and full grown dogs of my own and absolutely love taking care of all dogs. I was the neighborhood dog care taker and walker back home and can not have a dog of my own in the city, but miss being around dogs all the time. so I am so happy to take care of other people’s while they can’t or go out of town and to take them on long walks - whatever is needed. I am here to help in any way to make taking care of your dog as easy as possible for you and something that I absolutely love doing and am so passionate about. I work 9-4 during the week but am fully remote so am extremely flexible! I work fully remotely so am relatively flexible and able to care, walk, feed etc. during the day and am also available at night time I can easily crate your dog if needed or go to your home to care for the dog. There are many dog parks near me as well so can accommodate whatever you feel most comfortable with

Hope has been a wonderful dog walker over the past few years for my dachshund, Bean. Hope is kind and reliable and Bean has really taken to her. She also always sends sweet updates on how Bean is doing while we’re away, and you can tell how much she cares about her clients and their pets. Hope is always great to work with and I recommend her highly to others!
