“Xiomara took good care of my cats! Very responsive and great communication always. Love all the pictures included in the visit card every time. Seems my cats also have great time with her. Would definitely have her again in the future.”
“Marilin is an amazing sitter! She went above and beyond. My dog is a little scared of new people and she took time to do an additional meet and greet, made my dog feel comfortable and was a great communicator.”
“Paola was the best!! She gave us such thorough updates, which gave us a great sense of how Milo and Swift were doing throughout our 2-week trip. We honestly loved reading them! She also played with them and did daily walkthroughs, which made us much less worried about them being lonely or getting into trouble in our absence.”
“Victoria was so helpful and amazing with my teenage kitty. She sent so many fun pictures and it was clear that Cleo enjoyed having her around. Definitely snagging her for any time I go out of town! Thank you Victoria!!!”
“Valerie did a great job for us. She was very communicative and followed all instructions to the letter. The cats trusted her enough to interact with her, which was great. Will book again!”
“Anna was amazing with my cat Squeakers. She was VERY communicative before arriving the first visit and after every visit. My cat only needed enrichment which can be boring for most but Anna spent the visit making sure my cat was the most loved.”
“Katie is reliable and sensitive to our cat’s personality and needs. She also sent terrific photos while we were away, which were both amusing and reassuring to receive during our travels.”
“Daniela took many notes on our meet and greet. She took great care to understand our medication routine and to perform it exactly as instructed. She petted our 29-year old finicky cat and prepared his food using a method that ensured he was eager to eat it She made sure to lock up securely. She sent many pictures and a video. 100% satisfied.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and pets for people since I was in high school. I grew up with dogs and all kinds of different animals. I currently walk some dogs during the week, looking to add some more . I am available for walks and drop ins weekdays from 10:30am-3:00pm I am experienced in giving different medication (pills and insulin). I can easily crate your dog if needed. I also know how to use different walking tools( prong collars, harnesses, gentle leaders)
About: I’m a huge dog lover and have been caring for dogs for over 15 years. I started out working for a dog walking company, then ran my own dog walking business for a while. After 2020, I moved on to other things, but I’ve still stayed connected by walking and caring for a few longtime clients here and there. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I’m currently a preschool teacher and off for the summer, so I have plenty of free time to care for your pup! During the school year, I’m available for afternoon and evening visits after 3 p.m. on weekdays. I am available most times on the weekends as well. I’d love to spend my free time giving your dog the attention and care they deserve! Safety is always my top priority. I make sure to follow every routine and instruction pet owners provide because I know how important consistency is for dogs. I also have a dog at home who isn’t very dog-friendly, so I truly understand how important it is to respect each dog’s unique needs and boundaries.
“Linda is AMAZING! I was very nervous about leaving our cat alone for the weekend and the care and time she spends with our spunky little guy immediately eased my mind. We appreciate Linda’s care of little Arlo and will continue to ask her to watch him when we are out of town!”
“Alyssa was so wonderful with the pictures and communication when she visited my fur baby, I totally trust her to take sweet care of her and I know my fur baby LOVED Alyssa!! Thank you so much!!”
“Paula was wonderful with our 19 year old cat Simon. She took great care of him and sent lots of photos and even videos. I was worried that he might be grumpy and unhappy boarding but I think he felt very comfortable and really liked Paula. We are so happy that we found Paula and would definitely bring Simon back to board if we need to go out of town again.”
“Leigh took wonderful care of our two senior cats. She was comfortable giving one of our cats his medication twice a day and sent us good notes and pictures each day. Leigh is also just lovely and easy to talk to. From our initial meet and greet, it was clear she cares for animals and "gets" how to approach them. We feel confident leaving our boys in her care and will definitely try to book her again in the future!”
“We left our precious cat Bootsy in Jill's care for 10 days. Jill took great care of him! We will definitely book Jill again when we need Bootsy to be looked after in the future. Jill was very thoughtful, easy to work with, and went the extra mile while taking care of Bootsy. She communicated frequently, and eased our minds while we couldn't be with our baby boy. She was a great help and you shouldn't hesitate to book Jill to help take care of your fur baby!”
“Alex did a great job with my two cats while I was away for 9 days. Both cats were in great shape when I returned. She quickly learned how our automatic feeder worked so the cats had a second soft meal each day. She helped keep things tidy. She is great with cats and plays with them. I'll request Alex next time I'm away!”
