About: I love dogs and cats, I am a big animal fan and have always been. i enjoy going on walks and being super active.I am saving up for my dream dog a shiba inu for the future when I get my own place to call home. id love to enjoy having the experience of lightening up you and your furry friends day! I am currently working on a school so through out the day I would like some outside time to enjoy the weather or just help get energy out. I have 2 cats i love dearly and i am a very visual person. I can sometimes pickup when something is wrong or notice specific signs.
“So grateful we met Kristi. She was so wonderful with our kiddos. It’s hard to trust people with your fur babies, but Kristi had such great energy and she was amazing with the rover card putting detailed daily messages and great pictures. I highly recommend her. Our kiddos warmed up to her very quickly and we felt very reassured with the care she provided! Definitely will be using her again in the future!”
“As all her amazing reviews before me attest, Colleen is incredible. She took great care of Max during the holidays, communicated with us often, and clearly loved her job. Max also now thinks she’s his best friend. She’s a delight!”
“Elizabeth did a fantastic job looking after my cat, Murphy, while I was out of town! She sent regular updates and was very easy to communicate with. Recommend 10/10!”
About: Adult cat owner for a year and a lifetime of pet care and sitting experience. I work remotely in communications and marketing, so I have open availability and am very flexible with my time and attention. I’ve been an in-house sitter and dog walker for many friends over the last several years and have lots of experience with senior pets and anxious dogs. I work from home, fully remote, so I’m very flexible! Most of my job involves on-screen virtual meetings, writing and phone interviews so I’m happy to break up my day with walks, cuddles, snuggles and play time! I have an indoor-only cat who loves playtime and cuddling, but I also have experience sitting for anxious dogs and senior pets. I’m patient, calm and caring, and happy to sit with them, walk them or play indoor and outdoor.
About: I’ve taken care of and had several dogs my whole life! I had 4 dogs growing up and have a lot of experience walking/ playing/ being around dogs! I have my own cat now named, Momo! Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for days/ weeks at a time. I’m a middle school teacher off for summer and have plenty of time on my hands! I’m currently working part time in the summers and able to play and walk dogs for most of the day. I am available from 8 am- 3:30pm. I have a cat of my own and have had multiple dogs growing up. I am able to feed, walk, play and provide assistance! I can put them back in a crate if needed.
About: Hello! Nice to meet you, I'm Nick. I offer comprehensive pet care, backed by my lifelong experience growing up with both cats and dogs. I've cared for a variety of breeds, from Great Danes and German Shepherds to miniature poodles and tabby cats. My partner and I currently have two cats of our own, Calcifer and Ponyo, whom we’ve lovingly cared for over the past seven years. I’m dedicated to providing attentive and personalized care for every pet I look after. Some of my favorite hobbies include trying out the local coffee shops, traveling, and catching a show with friends. I currently work fully remote, so I tend to set my own schedule making it very flexible to give your pet the attention they need. I am always attentive and mindful to any animal in my care. It is important to me that your pet is getting the attention they deserve while in my care.
“Kateri was fantastic checking in on my cats! Very reliable to be there when she said she would be and spent plenty of time playing with them and giving them attention. She was great about sending lots of pictures during each visit too, which I appreciate. I’ll definitely book with her again in future!”
“Katie was awesome - it was so nice to know Althea was getting some attention when I was gone for a wedding, and I loved the photos to remind me that she was in good hands. Thank you, Katie!”
About: I grew up with both a dog and a cat, so I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets of different personalities and needs. I know how important daily walks are for a dog’s happiness and health, and I love spending time outdoors with furry friends—whether it’s a quick stroll around the block or a longer adventure. I’m also comfortable with drop-in visits, providing pets with fresh water, meals, playtime, and lots of love when their owners can’t be there. I treat every pet like my own- I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for when you’re away!! I'm available in the Mon-Thurs evenings starting at 5:30 p.m. Fridays I am available after 12 pm and weekends are variable, so please message for availability! I can be flexible. I am happy to do walks and drop ins and can be flexible to whatever routine works best for your pet's care! I am available to do overnights at my home for smaller pets, so please message if interested.
“Lexi took care of our cat, Scarlet, while we were out of town. She dropped in two times per day for about 10 days to feed Scarlet & clean her litter box. It was great to know that our kitty was well taken care of while we were away!”
“Absolutely great! Helped us out on short notice, went with the flow for our senior dogs extra needs, and took great care of our boys! Thank you, we will be returning clients.”
About: I’ve loved and helped watch/take care of dogs since I was little. My family grew up with dogs and I have helped friends/family/neighbors watch and care for their dogs for as long as I can remember. I do work full time, however I am home on weekends as well as early evening to help assist in any way that I can! I have a backyard which is about to be fully fenced in. I live in a very safe neighborhood which is perfect for walks! Also have ample room in my home for animals to roam/make themselves at home. Would also crate in my home as well if needed.

Kristi has become my permanent go-to sitter. She is dependable and has good intuition. She was concerned when my senior cat didn't seem quite himself and alerted me right away. She offered to do a bonus visit the following morning just to check on him, and I was glad she was able to do so. In the end, he was fine - just a quirky senior cat -- and I could enjoy the rest of my trip without worrying.
Elizabeth was amazing!!! This was a last minute request and she couldn't have been more accomodating and easy to work with. You can tell how much she cares as her updates were always thorough. So happy to have found her, she'll be our go-to sitter moving forward!
Bethany was responsible, responsive and just all around amazing with communication/pictures/updates about our kitties. So happy that I didn't have to worry on my trip because I knew she takes such great care of our cats. She is truly a 10 out of 10! I will continue to hire her every team I need a sitter.
