“Barbara took great care of our kitty, Lucy. Lucy really enjoyed her time with her, sitting on her lap and playing with her flying toy feather snake. That meant the world to us, knowing our fur baby was in great hands during our time away. Barbara sent pics which brought smiles to us from afar.”
“Alora continues to give amazing care and flexibility with my busy schedule. My schedule frequently changes she's always able to make something work and I can pick up shifts knowing she's covering everything with my boys at home”
“Ray was wonderful dropping in to visit my two cats. They both took to her right away. She was attentive to details and sent me updates with videos and pictures each day. She was very professional and came prepared to get all the information she needed to care for them. I will definitely book her again for services!”
“Rachel is the best! She was communicative, on-time, and flexible. She made my dog feel comfortable while I was away and provided excellent care. I will certainly book with her again for any pet care needs.”

“Tiffany is amazing! This is the third time she has watched my kitties (I have 5) and she always goes above and beyond! I have rescues and they let her pet them now too. I recommend her 1000% 😁”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have a 12 year old male Labrador and a 4 year old female cat. They are both friendly and accepting of visiting dogs. I am retired one year. My days are spent primarily at home, working in my garden and doing household chores. We’re pretty laidback and enjoy staying close to our animals and home. I have a fully fenced backyard with a pool that is fenced off from the main yard. I have a screened back patio that my cat and dog love hanging out on cool mornings and evenings.
“Cassidy helped us when we were in a pinch! I was able to book with her last minute and she loved on our sweet pup! So very thankful for her. She communicated with me throughout her visits as well which provided the reassurance that our girl was comfortable and taken care of.”
“Maggie was wonderful with our cats and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond during the meet-and-greet, genuinely taking the time to get to know each of our cats and their unique needs. It was clear how much she cares, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave them. We can’t wait to book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends animals for at least 5 years with no issues. I’ve fed, walked, bathed, loved and snuggled many friends and family members animals as well as my own I work M-F 9-6 with an hour lunch. Weekends I’m free most times outside of a few vacations throughout the year. I can take lunches for walks and check ins and if needed my schedule is flexible enough to rearrange hours worked I care for the pets at their own home as I find this easier on them being in their own environment. I follow schedules my client leaves for me regarding walks, feeding, sleep/bedtime routines, etc. Play time and snuggle time are always included with lots of love given as if they are my own
“Melissa is awesome! She took care of our kitty Casey for 1.5 weeks while we were away and took exceptional care of him. She constantly gave him attention, pets, and played with him and always sent nice photos of him. She went above and beyond helping us with mail, etc. Highly recommend Melissa to anyone with pet-sitting needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals, as well as had plenty of my own— I work remotely and have pretty much infinite time to spend with your furry (scaly, feathery) friends! I’ve lived in friends’ houses for over two weeks to look after their animals; I’m generally pretty quiet and allow the pets come to me, but I’m happy to do tricks with them or take them out for runs and adventures when requested! I love taking lots of pictures of your pets to send you, and keeping you up to date on their health and adventures! Have also provided care for senior animals multiple times, and dealt with health crises while the owner was absent. Happy to do dogs or cats, but can also handle rodents, reptiles, etc. Have previously had: rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles/tortoises, dogs, cats, and fish. As long as you are willing to demonstrate the care of the animal, I am willing to take on pretty much anything, though! I love hanging out with animals while I’m working— they’re such good office-mates! Of course I have to leave occasionally during overnight stays, but your pets are my priority, always! Whatever attention they need, I will give them, and I will always keep my eyes and ears open for any mischief happening! I like to go through your routine with you and then try to keep everything as close to normal for your pets as possible! They’ll already be missing you— they don’t need any more stress! Food and water bowls refilled on time, walks given regularly, and as many pets, kisses, and photoshoots as required!

Dee and Tatiana are very kind, gentle people and they took wonderful care of our cat, Burly while we were on vacation. (Also watered plants and checked mail) They stayed longer than required each day and sent us photos and loving reports every day. Because of my incomplete planning, we bumped into each other on the last day, when we returned, and they took that day off the total cost, which they really did not have to do!!
I've been lucky to have across my street a troop of six siblings over almost 20 years who at the drop of the hat have been ready to care for my three Dobies when I go out of town. My luck ran out this week and last Tuesday Rover at the drop of the hat and on a wing and a prayer, scanned the reviews of several prospective dog-sitters. Rover referred about 6 people and Allison was the only one who responded with an offer. We met on the day before I was to leave town and agreed that she would provide house visits for 4 days. I received twice daily reports and photos and couldn't be more satisfied with (make that grateful to) Allison and Rover.
Allison is wonderful! We’ve had her check on our cats multiple times now and she always does such a great job. She even popped by a day early because I forgot to fill up my cats automatic feeders and one wasn’t going off. She’s a life saver for sure! I’d recommend her to anyone & everyone :)
I recently got a new pup, Lorelei, for myself and she's been healing up from prior surgery at the shelter. Ray has been phenomenal with caring for her and letting the pup be herself. She's also considerate in including our resident dog, Bristol, who's been really calm and has an assuring presence.
Maggie took great care of our pups! She took them on walks which they loved and while she was doing that, she brought in mail/packages that arrived when she was there which was unexpected but so nice. We really appreciate her and know our pups will be happy to see her anytime
Nia did a great job taking care of our dog, Lulu. Nia was very good at communicating everything she observed and all the things she did while spending time with Lulu. She really paid attention to Lulu’s behavior and mood and her notes really let us know Lulu was in good hands.
I have worked with Bethany before, and every time is the same experience: wonderful and easy. Bethany is very kind, thoughtful, and attentive to myself (I’m a bit anxious when I leave my pets!) and my furry friends. It’s really apparent that she loves animals, and is always happy to meet them where they are. Her communication is great, she’s incredibly thoughtful in her updates and the caretaking of my home, and it’s apparent that she just adores animals. I know that my home and pets are in good hands when I’m away with Bethany, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re still reading this and on the fence: just book her already!
Lia and Alexzander were so great with our cat Grace. She normally does not like most people but I have lots of photos of them petting her and brushing her, so she obviously became very comfortable with them. They were awesome to do the things we needed done and faithfully communicated and sent us photos. I would very highly recommend them!
