“Did such a good job taking care of my cat. Very communicative, kept everything clean, truly went above and beyond to make sure I wouldn’t have to worry about my boy when I’m away. Would highly recommend and book again in the future!”
“Turin did an amazing job with our cat Noah! For the first time we left him for 10 days and felt a bit uneasy about it, but Turin took great care of him. She sent pictures daily so we always felt comfortable and Noah seems to have taken a quick liking as he was even photographed on her lap! Thanks so much Turin! Highly recommended and whenever we go away again I will be sure to call you.”
“Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Allison was so great with my very shy kitty! My Sophie warmed right up to her. Allison is a cat whisperer and will be my go-to for my cat and my dog in the future. She is also super sweet and communicates well. Thank you for taking care of my girl!”
“I was very pleased with Kimberly and if you are considering hiring someone to drop in on your kitty, Kimberly should be your caretaker. Kimberly followed every instruction and made sure I was updated every day. She was always on time and I did not have to worry about my little baby while I was away for the holiday. Her reports are thorough and she called to confirm any questions. She takes her responsibility seriously and as a pet owner herself, she knows how much we love our fur family and why us daddies and mommies don't like to leave them with anyone. In all HIGHLY recommended.”
About: PLEASE READ ENTIRE BIO BEFORE BOOKING! Hello friends! We have been around animals most of our lives. We grew up in Sussex County, NJ(so always surrounded by farms & livestock). Jill has had various jobs over the years pertaining to animal care. Most of her experience comes from kennel work. She does daily tasks such as cleaning, learning canine/feline behavior, administering medications/insulin. While also receiving real life experience tending to medical emergencies such as heat strokes and seizures. Ethan also is well versed in dogs. He has had many dogs over the years big and small. He has a calm gentle demeanor, as to not scare the animals. We do Rover together so you get TWICE the love for your furry family member for the price of one! We both have absolutely no preference and love all sizes and breeds (although those big breeds will always have our hearts). We understand that each pet has their own unique characteristics and preferences. Our job is too evaluate your pet to make their stay comfortable and safe. We want all the pets we care for to have a calm and pleasant stay. To do this we can engage in play sessions, provide enrichment toys and puzzles, or even just snuggle on the couch and watch a movie. Whatever your pet needs we can accommodate :) And if your pet is maybe a bit more slimy, scaly, or slithery, we would still love to help out. Personally, Jill has years of reptile experience as well as birds. We can confidently say your pet is in the best possible care with us and we can’t wait to get to know you and your furry family members! Jillian (Jill) currently works full time at a dog kennel. She does her best to be flexible around most schedules. With holidays coming up her schedule is increasingly busy. Ethan works Mon-Thur 5am-5pm, but is off every Fri-Sun. We do not mind coordinating drop in times, house sitting stays, or walks between our shifts. Please contact us for further questions or concerns about stays. We typically do not have clients dogs come to our home. We have a 14 year old collie mix that is very passionate about dogs respecting her boundaries. She does get along with dogs but with her age we don’t like to stress her out. We have a fenced in back yard. However, we live in a very noisy neighborhood with an elementary school as well as an ambulance station right down the street. So going to others homes would probably be the best.
“Lucero did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I also liked Lucero as a person - she is very nice and very reliable. Definitely will come back to her the next time I will need a sitter for my cat! Thank you so much!”

“Grayson was great. This was my first time leaving Tom for an extended period of time since he has developed some kidney issues. Between that and him being a Velcro cat, I was a little nervous. Grayson was extremely communicative and timely and alleviated any initial concerns I had. Tom is doing great today like we didn’t even miss a beat! I know he was in good hands with her and will definitely try to use her in the future!”
