“Lindsay went above and beyond to help us with our cat, and we plan on continuing to book with her for the future! I absolutely recommend her if you're looking for a sitter!”


“A well deserved 5 STARS. KRISTEN was engaging with my elderly dog and immediately won her over. She understood what my girl might need and constantly evaluated and provides what that might be. Keeping in touch with me as she was able (I was in hospital), she made the necessary decisions and implemented them. I trusted her in my home and with my cherrish Companion. I promised my dog, Shelby, when I adopted a frightened and untrusting puppy, I would take care of her. KRISTEN helped me keep my promise and did not disappoint. RECOMMEND.”


“Lora Renee took great care of our cat! He was diagnosed with Lymphoma 2 months ago and we were hesitant to leave him, but Lora Renee immediately put us at ease. We felt very comfortable having her in our home.”


“Sophia is very diligent and punctual, gentle with our elderly tripod dog and, and best of all our dogs (and our cat) love her. We are very glad to have her as a regular pet sitter.”


“Daniel was great! I'm a first time Rover user, and everything went very smoothly from the meet and greet through his visits with Bobcat. Really like getting the check-ins along with the photos. I highly recommend Daniel.”


“I needed a same-day drop in, and Courtney responded within a minute of my request! She asked clarifying questions before the visit and took lots of pictures. I would definitely ask Courtney to look in on my pets again.”


“I had a family emergency and contacted Vanessa with not a lot of notice, and she was able to fit me in her schedule! She did a fantastic job checking on my two girls again, and Louise, who is shy around strangers, came out to finally meet Vanessa! ❤️”


“🐾 **Five Stars for Natalia’s Exceptional Cat Care!** Natalia took amazing care of my cats, treating them like her own. Her daily reports were detailed and reassuring, keeping me completely in the loop. What truly impressed me was her problem-solving mindset—any small issue that came up, she handled with calm and care, always finding a solution so I never had to worry. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies were in such capable and loving hands. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants their pets well looked after!”


“We have had a couple of last minute challenges during our recent trips, and Katelin has gone above and beyond to help out and ensure that our pets are properly cared for even in our absence.”


“My husky doesn’t warm up to people very quickly but with chip, she warmed up immediately on the first Initial meet. Chip is very responsive, respectful, follows thorough instructions, and kind. Thanks so much!”


About: I love and care for dogs who need the support and care when their owners are gone. All of my family has dogs, and I love playing with them too! I’m ready to be patient and loving for them as well! Pet care will be good and available throughout the week since I am on summer vacation, and I have a lot of time in between the days I am not busy to come and take care of them! Caring for pets at home means making sure they are healthy, happy, and safe. This includes feeding them nutritious food and fresh water, giving them a clean and cozy place to rest, and providing regular exercise and play. Pets need to be groomed, kept clean, and taken to the vet for checkups and vaccinations. It’s also important to spend quality time with them, show them love, and train them with patience. Keeping their space safe and giving them attention every day helps them feel like a true part of the family.

About: I was raised with dogs since I was about 5 years old, and had cats since I was 10. I currently own two beautiful cats that I've had for about 5 years now. I have pet sat for others while in the military, and am excited to do so again! I quit my job so that I can attend college full-time. Until I start classes, I am completely free and available to care for animals. Once I start classes, I will still be able to pet sit and board on my off days and weekends. :) I live in a two bedroom condo with a green belt out back and several nice walking trails nearby. I do have two cats, so any dogs I watch will need to be gentle and play nice!

“Carol was an absolute delight to work with to manage the care of my two senior cats when traveled out of town for the weekend! She was very punctual for our Meet & Greet and when picking up and dropping off house key. Caring for her own two senior cats, I observed an instant connection between her and my two senior felines. While I only required two drop-in visits every other day, Carol checked-in on my "fur babies" one other day because she felt sorry for my cats being alone in a quiet home all day. My cat "kids" and I sincerely appreciated the extra visit! Carol sent me lots of adorable pictures and videos of my "kids" which I just had to 'show off' to friends and family I was visiting at the time. Carol also went above and beyond by taking the used cat litter bags to the trash dumpster after each visit (as I only required leaving the bags outside on my patio for me to take to dumpster upon returning home). I highly recommend Carol for your future cat care needs.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I love all animals but can’t get my own dog right now. I’m in need of some dog time! I’m a teacher and out for the summer! I can’t come at almost any time of the day. I will be tracking but will let any potential clients know ahead of time! I cannot have any pets at my house but am very comfortable coming to your home to walk or feed or just to check in! I’m at in good physical condition and can keep up with your dog. I have a car and can drive to pet parks as well if needed
