“I was away from my kitties for three weeks and the only reason I wasn't afraid everyday was because of Tatiana! They've never liked anyone else, but very quickly she and them had bonded and I was getting oodles of pictures of them happily cuddling away. She stayed in full contact with me and I could feel how much she cared about them from the pictures and messages. Will be re-booking next time!”


“Briaunna went above and beyond after I'd made an error with one of my most recent bookings. She was so responsive and went the extra mile to make sure my cat was taken care of even when that meant a last minute late night visit! I was super grateful for her!”

About: I have taken care of both my own pets and the pets of close family and friends. Those who have requested my services have become regular clients as I am always happy to spend time with their furry friends! I am currently a full-time college student with 1-2 2-hour classes a day Monday through Thursday. Outside of class, I have plenty of time for pet care as my coursework can be completed virtually. I care for both cats and dogs. This typically includes feeding, walking, playing, grooming, and cleaning. I have also occasionally handled the administration of medications to both cats and dogs.


“Great job, as always! I love the extra thoughtful touches that show Katie truly cares for my cat, and best of all -- I always come home to a happy and well taken-care of kitty!”


About: I’ve always had a love for dogs, even though I grew up in a cat household. Since I couldn’t have a dog of my own, I spent years caring for the dogs of family and friends whenever they were out of town. While I admit chihuahuas make me a little nervous, they’re still one of the cutest breeds in my eyes! I'm passionate about providing loving, attentive care to every dog I meet. I work a part time job at the moment. Wednesdays evenings and weekend mornings. But I’d love to spend time with all the fur baby’s I can !:) Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your pup to relax and feel at home. I'm just a short walk away from several parks and local dog parks
