Tricia spent time playing with our cats, and left detailed notes about each visit. She let the cats take their time to warm up to her, and we would definitely hire her again!

Amanda is the only person I trust with my dog She handles him easily (he’s 90 pounds) and takes him to the park or hiking on overnights Amanda is very reliable and has been able to help me out in a pinch! She’s also very good with my cats, she sends me frequent pictures and I think they like Amanda more than they like me !

I cannot recommend Dan highly enough! He recently cared for my two cats while I was away, and the experience was beyond exceptional. As any cat parent knows, trusting someone new with your fur babies can be nerve-wracking—but from our first interaction, Dan put me completely at ease. Before the booking even started, Dan took the time to understand my cats’ personalities, quirks, routines, and needs. One of my cats is shy and reserved, while the other is more social and demanding of attention, and Dan navigated both of their temperaments with patience, compassion, and an obvious understanding of cat behavior. I was blown away when I saw that even my shy cat—who typically hides from new people—was relaxed and visible during his visits. That alone says a lot. Throughout my time away, Dan sent thorough updates with photos and notes that not only kept me informed but brought me peace of mind. I could tell my cats weren’t just being fed and checked in on—they were truly being cared for. He gave them plenty of attention, played with them, kept their food and water areas clean, and made sure the litter box was spotless. When I came home, everything was in perfect shape, and my cats seemed calm and content—as if they’d been on their own little vacation. Dan also went above and beyond in little ways that meant a lot—making sure everything was locked up securely, noticing and responding to the smallest shifts in the cats’ behavior, and treating my home with total respect. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, communicative, and genuinely loving toward animals. Dan truly treated my cats like his own. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets with care, attentiveness, and real affection, book Dan without hesitation. I will absolutely be booking him again, and I hope more people get to experience the peace of mind he brings. He’s a gem, and I feel lucky to have found him.

Zack has watched our dog for us since he was just a puppy (6 years ago!) and has continued to do so many times over the years. He is one of the only people we've trusted to watch our fur baby. He's watched our dog both in his home and ours, and we've had nothing but fantastic experiences with him. He's even the one who started to teach our dog to do some tricks, just because he loves dogs so much and is so positive with them. He's always happy to send lots of pictures and videos of the adventures he goes on with our boy, and we can always enjoy our nights away knowing that our dog is being loved

Viulka loves animals. She has always been willing to go above and beyond when caring for dogs. She will prepare special food if needed and make sure all instructions are followed. She offers my dog Ace so much love but follows through with the boundaries that we set for him! Ace absolutely adores her!

Nicole has been watching my dogs for a few years and I can't recommend her enough. My dogs are a handful and Nicole knows their quirks and personalities and they are always well taken care of when she stays over with them. One of my dogs needed special medical care while we were away and Nicole was on top of it and he was doing great when we got home. Its a relief knowing she is with them whenever we are away

8 years of experience

About: I have regularly watched special needs cats and elderly dogs over the past 8 years. This included careful portion control, preparation, and supplemental additions to food, as well as administering pills orally. I have also tong-fed live grubs to geckos. My cat, Winston was born in my room, at my feet, while I was cat-sitting for a friend. I just left my job of 9 years, so I will have plenty of time to look after your pets! I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for you. I am used to meeting the needs and wishes of friends and acquaintances when caring for their pets. I'm happy to follow any rules you may have for pet-sitting and house-sitting

I can’t recommend Steve enough!! He’s been walking my dog, Chloe, for years , and I’ve seen such a positive difference. Chloe is always excited to see him and it’s clear that Steve truly cares about the well-being of my pet. He’s reliable, professional, and always send me updates after each walk, which gives me peace of mind. I’ve noticed my dog is much calmer and happier the days she’s with Steve and I feel so confident knowing she’s in such good hands. Highly recommend to any dog owner looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
