Lisa was absolutely wonderful. She left fun, detailed notes after each visit and was incredibly diligent and thoughtful in caring for our cats. She connected with both of them so naturally—you can tell she truly understands and loves animals. We especially appreciated the photos and videos she sent; they brought us so much comfort while we were traveling and made us feel totally at ease. Her communication, kindness, and attention to detail truly set her apart. Hands down, Lisa is one of the best sitters we’ve ever had. We highly recommend her!

Janelle did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 cats. She was on time, and followed all feeding and care instructions flawlessly. Janelle sent many pictures and texts to me during each visit. It was very comforting to see my cats looking so happy, eating, and playing, and getting a text about how they were doing twice a day for a week. Janelle is a caring person who put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my vacation knowing my cats, and my home was in good hands. The litter boxes, and cat dishes and water bowls were cleaned daily and mail brought in as needed. She’s definitely a cat person, and made even my skittish kitty feel at ease, and both cats became very friendly with her. I highly recommend Janelle and wouldn’t hesitate to use her services in the future.

About: I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to follow specific routines, dietary requirements, and any special instructions you provide. I have my own e-commerce business so my schedule is very flexible - I work from home all day, therefore I'm able to care for your dog or cat and be by their side caring for their daily needs. I'm very detail oriented so I'll listen to exactly how you want me to care for your dog or cat, if they have a strict diet or certain important needs special to them. I'll be prompt and on time so as to not interfere in the clients schedule. I'll love them like their my own!

About: Hi! I’m Mike! I live in Long Beach. I work in the city 3 days a week, but I can choose which days I go in. So, I can be flexible! A little about my background: I was a volunteer dog walker at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter in Wantagh, NY for about 3 years. I would routinely walk strong dogs with a lot of energy and was involved in training them to walk better on leash. During the pandemic, while working from home full time, I became my neighbors dog walker for their Husky and 2 Chihuahuas because why not!! I walked them at least twice a day every day for almost 2 years. I don’t have a ton of experience taking care of cats, but I have friends and family that have cats. I’d be more than willing to help take care of your cats as well! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work in the city 3 days per week, but I can choose which days those will be. So, I can be flexible. If for whatever reason, you need to cancel, just let me know at least 1-2 days before. Thank you! I provide dog sitting, dog walking, dog boarding, cat sitting, and cat boarding services. Whatever you need and however much you need, I am willing to give! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet!

Becky looked after my cat Klover on Christmas and was nothing but kind, sweet and attentive. Typical cat behavior, Klover doesn’t usually greet people but was out and about when Becky was there. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!

Stacey was incredibly patient, helpful and respectful! She took the time to get to know our dog before doing a drop in visit for over an hour and taking her for a walk. Took many pictures and did more than I could ask.

Jamie was amazing! I just recently adopted my pup and was nervous about leaving him for a long period of time. Jamie helped ease my mind as a new dog mom and took such good care of Roger. She’s super responsive and makes sure to send updates! Would definitely use her again!

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have been a dog owner since age 12. In 2020, I helped raise and train our family puppy, handling potty training, crate training, and daily routines. I have experience caring for pets of all ages for both my own family and relatives, and I’m comfortable providing attentive and reliable care to ensure pets feel safe and happy. I currently work full-time (9am–5pm) and commute into Manhattan Tuesday through Thursday. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which allows for greater daytime flexibility. I’m also generally available most weekends and can accommodate walks and sitting as needed. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine by following feeding, walking, and care instructions closely. I provide plenty of attention and keep homes clean and secure while sending regular updates for peace of mind.

It was the first time using Rover, but Kenny was very punctual and provided excellent communication, he took very good care of our kitties (2), one of them looks like she loves him, by the the way it looks in the pictures he sent us everyday. Will definitely contact him again when we are out town.

Alexis was a pleasure to work with. She communicated with us each day and sent a picture of Leonard when he decided show his face. Everything was neat and clean when we arrived home. I am sure Leonard would give her 2 thumbs up if he could. We will definitely repeat with her as needed.

We are new to the area and felt so fortunate to find John to care for our two cats! He was diligent in getting our picky eater to finish her meals and gave them each some additional attention by brushing them. We have already booked John for future drop in visits! Thanks so much, John!!!

Angela was the best cat sitter we could have ever found. From the moment I requested to book, she was communicative and friendly. She came by the same day for a meet and greet and was so friendly to our little Laszlo. My boyfriend and I knew instantly that we would hire her. This is our first pet together and he’s a little baby so we were really worried to leave him for such a long time. Angela reassured us and made us feel comfortable way before our trip. We booked Angela for a daily drop in and she provided Laszlo with food, water and a litter box change. She gave Laszlo lots of cuddles and play time & provided us with live updates and photos. She also watered our plants and made sure to check in if we needed anything else. She instantly fell in love with Laszlo and gave him such great care and attention. It’s unfortunate that she lives in Brazil 8 months out of the year but we will 100% be using her again when she comes back. Angela is also a really outgoing person so I think I have just found a new friend! 100000/10. Best cat sitter ever!

We were lucky enough to secure Mary once again to take care of our fur baby while we took a quick weekend away. She’s always so accommodating to any request we might have and the communication is always top tier. She’s been our go to for pet care for extended vacations ever since we moved to Long Beach.
