Maria cared for my cat, Ramona, while we were away for Thanksgiving. She was easy to coordinate with, asked all the right questions during our meet and greet, and sent photos of Mo while we were gone. We will most definitely be rebooking with Maria! ❤️

I can’t thank Aaron enough for looking after our rabbit, Cheeto, and providing us with consistent updates and peace of mind! He went out of his way to come over and meet him first so he could learn how to properly administer his eyedrops. He asked lots of questions and was attentive and thorough. Cheeto seemed so content and relaxed when we came back home. Would highly recommend him as a petsitter!

This was my first time hiring a professional pet sitter. My kitty needed drop-in visits and administration of liquid medications in addition to the usual stuff for one week. Lauren was responsive, friendly, professional, and took wonderful care of my little fur baby. She provided daily check-ins with info and lots of adorable pics that made me miss my cat even more. I’m very happy with Lauren’s services, will definitely hire her again in the future, and give her two big thumbs up for anyone in need of cat sitting.

Rob used to watch our cats and dog when we'd travel. He'd always do an excellent job taking care of our elderly border collie and two cats when we'd be gone for more extended lengths of time. When we'd return, it was as if we never left. We can't recommend him enough.

Zara is awesome! Both Louie and I are so thankful she could come on short notice. She was very attentive and thoughtful in his care. She was also extremely willing to work around my schedule and the small hiccup we ran into. 10/10 would recommend ?

Francesca is wonderful with dogs. She's boarded our dog Lucky multiple times and Lucky has a better vacation than we do. She comes back happy and has always been well fed and well exercised. It's reached a point where she recognizes Francesca's house as soon as we pull up and she can't wait to visit. We can't recommend Francesca high enough.

Amee has been taking care of our dog Juicy for the past 15 years. Amee was literally the only person Juicy trusted when we weren’t around. She would always text us pictures and updates with Juicy, like if she ate her food or used the bathroom and it gave us peace of mind knowing Juicy was safe and in the best care while we were out of town. Amee was always caring and loving towards our dog and our dog loved being around her (and our dog was VERY PICKY with who she gets close to - her chihuahua side was very territorial). Amee knows how to approach Juicy when she’s feeling anxious being in a new place and she knows how to make Juicy feel comfortable (sometimes our dog got too comfortable, like sleeping on top of Amee’s pillows lol). Before our Juicy crossed the rainbow bridge, Amee came by to say her goodbyes which meant so much to us. Thank you Amee for all years of love you’ve given us and to our Juicy girl!

Kay has brought a pleasant, gentle, and attentive attitude to both my cat and our correspondence. I greatly appreciate her service in the pet care. Both my cat and I have felt a safety in attending and watching over what matters to us. And bonus, I returned home to a unclustered space.

Thea is fantastic! Ultra-reliable, excellent listener, great communicator. She has that magic touch with cats (and I imagine dogs, too). She took me on very short notice when my regular sitter canceled on me. I received frequent reassuring texts and photos of my shy senior cat who warmed up to Thea right away. I had a worry-free vacation and came home to a happy, healthy cat with a very clean litter box. I recommend Thea highly and will *definitely* book her again for any/all future absences.

Lucas,...you're asking about this guy right here? This dude? Lucas? Yeah, I know him. Would I recommend him to watch your pets and give them all the love and attention in the world?! YES. Lucas is an amazing animal caregiver. He has a wide range of skills and knowledge when it comes to animals. He has experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it! Honestly, I wouldn't expect anything else from someone with a Masters in zoo science. Lucas has great patience with animals and that is especially shown during his time fostering rescue pups from Norsled! He took care and pride in taking the extra time to help potty train the dogs that came in and learn some basic tricks like sitting during a walk. He has fostered about 5 dogs to date, owns his own dog, cares for a tank full of thriving fish, and has done great work with reptiles at the local vivarium! If you need someone to take care of your pet, you will not be disappointed with Lucas as your sitter! His human to human skills aren't bad either! He is thoughtful, respectful, and just a pure genuine dude. Lucas is definitely a great person to communicate with when it comes to your pet's care. 10/10 dude! Would recommend!

About: I’ve been the primary caretaker for my Yorkie Olivia for 7 years. I love being surrounded by pets, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to work with them! Other than taking care of my own dog, I have assisted in overnight house + dog sitting for multiple nights with two dogs, and hosted dogs in my house. I would love to give your dog or cat all of the attention and care that I know they deserve :) My schedule is open at the moment, I will update this page with any changes! Early morning walks, overnight stays, you name it! I’m fully available. I have a fully fenced yard and an open space in the living room for all of the basic essentials that a dog needs. My little dog Olivia gets along well with other dogs (she came from a household with multiple dogs) so she’ll keep your dog company throughout your pet’s stay.

Miranda has been my cat sitter for the last two years. She truly adores my two cats, and enjoys spending time with them. If anything, she indulges them with more affection and playtime than I do. At least that's what they tell me. She is also extremely tidy, responsible and detail-oriented. When I leave home I always miss my cats, but I never worry about them in Miranda's care.

Lea is one of the biggest dog lovers I know! She's so sweet and affectionate towards them that they get along great. The best part is that when she brings them back they're always happy and all tired from so much playing! I would recommend Lea many many times over, she's the best!
