“The cats never miss a beat while Jennifer is here. Jennifer is great about keeping me up to date on the cats' comings and goings and takes the cutest pictures of them.”
6. Hannah C.
“Hannah was an excellent cat sitter. In my eight years of hiring people to care for my cats, she has been the very best of them all. She seems to have made genuine loving connections with my kitties and spent extra time with them. She always sent nice notes about my cats after every meal and terrific, varied photos of them playing, eating, and sitting on her lap. She kept my house very clean. The cats were calm and happy when I returned. I can tell that they were not stressed by my absence because they had such a kind caretaker. I will definitely hire Hannah again and I highly recommend her.”

About: I have owned animals my whole life. I have also worked in veterinary medicine for almost 10 years. I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician and have worked in General Practice as well as ER/ICU. I also operate an animal rescue in which I take in animals in need of medical care and once the animal is healthy, find adopters. I have taken care of numerous animals during my career. I have exceptional knowledge of medical management for animals needing medical care, medications, injections, etc. I currently work as an LVT (Licensed Veterinary Technician) part time. I operate my rescue every day of the week. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me several opportunities during the day/night to provide drop ins to a clients home for walks, medications, etc. I am typically home most of the day so animals staying in my home will have frequent access to the yard and attention from me I have a fenced in yard and a separate entrance and indoor space for pet sitting within my home. I have a finished basement with cat trees, dog toys, couches, etc to make guests staying within my home feel comfortable. Currently, I only have space for one client’s pets at a time to ensure all pets get along and are safe together. Guest within my home will not have access to my own personal pets.
9. Jeremy M.
About: I enjoy taking care of dogs and cats of all sizes. I also am attentive to watering plants, watching out for deliveries, and checking mail. I keep the house neat and orderly just as I would have found it. I also am quiet and would be respectful if there are neighbors. I work remotely full-time, Monday through Friday, which fits well with pet sitting as I would be readily available while I work, and my current hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. I can take breaks frequently to walk pets and do all that is needed. I read instructions carefully left and adhere to all that is needed for each pet. I am glad to ask questions when those arise, and I also at times may take a picture of the pet to send to show how content each pet is and that they are doing well.
10. Julie P.
About: I have cared for pets my whole life from my own, to neighbors, family members, friends and strangers! I love pets of all kinds. I have owned pets from chinchillas to cats and have always had a dog in my household. I am hoping to provide love and care to pets of all ages! I am working between the hours of 7:30-3pm Mon-Fri so I have some availability in the early mornings and a lot of availability in the evenings! My weekends are mostly free to care Friday evening through Sunday evening! My cat has her own side of the house she stays in but I can crate my pet or your pet if needed. I live on 13 acres of land away from main roads so there is plenty of space for your pets to run/go for walks with me and no danger of traffic!
11. Cynthia R.
“Cynthia was wonderful. Very caring, compassionate, and patient. The dogs all loved her. She even took special care of our Beagle who was ill before we left. When we got back, he was better except for a little upset stomach that cleared up the next day.”
12. Crystal G.
“Crystal kept my 2 dogs for 3 weeks while my husband and I were out of town for medical purposes. I had never left my babies for longer than a long weekend, otherwise they went on vacation too. Crystal made this experience worry free. She was great with the dogs, kept us updated with pics and phone calls, and managed tasks at the house. I highly recommend her for your fur children - you can see immediately that she is a pet lover and knowledgeable about their care.”
13. Katie K.
“Katie is absolutely amazing with dogs and I wouldn’t want anyone else to watch my dogs! She responds to messages quick and is great with communicating back.”
