Beth was exceptional with our cats. She kept in close communication while we were gone and gave regular updates. It was evident that the cats were comfortable with Beth; when we got home they showed no signs of stress or misbehavior. I would wholeheartedly recommend Beth to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

Chelsea is fun to work with and my cat loves her. She also goes above and beyond by vacuuming up loose litter and even watering my flowers! She's great.

Angela has excellent communication and responded to all of our questions very quickly. She allowed us to visit her apartment with our cat Juni and her apartment was very clean and organized. Juni was well taken care of during her stay and Angela was great with her. 11/10 cat sitter!

Emily took great care of my 3 cats. Litter boxes were very clean and she made sure the auto feeder and water fountains stayed full. My cats came out to greet her when she stopped by and were very happy during our trip.

Tammy would be a wonderful caregiver for any pet. I have known her for 25 years. As a pet owner herself she takes excellent care of all pets and she is a loving owner to cats and dogs. I would feel lucky if she took care of my animals. We love our pets and she would be a perfect choice for this new adventure in her career. Tammy M

Thalia Leon Rodriguez is very caring and responsible with animals and brings a lifetime of experience caring for and nursing pets. She is respectful, reliable, and excels particularly with special needs animals. She meets them where they are at, with close attention. As her aunt, I have personally seen her care for a diabetic foster cat and an elderly dog with a heart condition. The cat required daily shots and specific dietary requirements; the cat was prone to stress and had several health crises. Thalia became very in tune with his health indicators and responded swiftly when he became ill. Since childhood she has rescued dozens of animals, primarily homeless cats, back to health. She is keenly interested in biology and veterinary medicine so her respect for and interest in animals extends beyond domestic pets. I have had several dogs with health complications and would trust her with any of them in a heart beat. Your furry loved ones are in excellent hands with Thalia.

About: With over a decade of personal pet care experience, many of my friends, family, and family friends depend on and put their trust in me to take care of their fur babies! I am in school online, so I am always home! This means I can care for & keep your pups and kitties company 24/7. I am usually available. At my home, pets have free roam of the downstairs area, as well as access to a big fenced in yard. There is plenty of room to wiggle, wag, and play! In a clients home, I follow their instructions & routines specific to their pet. I make sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy! My pet care is attentive, including feeding, many walks, play time, and any other needs the pet may have.

Victoria was great with all 3 of my dogs. It tends to be a circus wrangling all 3, but she did an awesome job. Victoria is attentive to detail and great at communicating. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Mary has helped me numerous times over the past 3 years to watch my dog Bubbles. Whenever I need to go out of town, Mary is the first person I call! She is a reliable dog watcher. She loves to walk the dogs and gives them her undivided attention! Her bubbly and fun-loving personality is contagious, and I know my dog just adores her! I could not write enough good things about her!
