Nancy was an excellent cat sitter even tho my grumpy shy guy did not even once give her the time of day lol (sometimes he's just rude like that) She still dutifully dropped in on him 2x a day for the 2 weeks I was gone spending time on every visit just in case he got curious enoigh to come out and play. (He didnt :P) She was so thoughtful and sweet tho, laying out treats in the shapes of hearts and mixing a variety of toys to entertain and entice him while he was alone. She opted to use is his flower snuffle-feeder on rainy days. :) Just so many nice extra touches. She made some recommendations for grooming products and slow feeders based on her extensive experience supporting shelters and veterinary offices. Her love of animals (especially cats) constantly shines through. And she left the porch light on for me too when she knew I'd get home late. I would absolutely book her again and no one should hesitate to request her services.

About: Hi! I have always been surrounded with all kinds of pets, ever since I can remember. I was always the one to take on more responsibility than my siblings for our family pets, and started sitting when I was 16! From feeding and walking, to administering medication and bathing.. I can do it all and take care of your pets as if they were my own! I work regular office hours, with an hour lunch in the middle of the day which I can use to come care for your furry babies! I am excited to give your pets the best care in the space that is the most comfortable for them! They get to stay at home or walked around the neighborhood, meaning less stress for your little pal

Kristin always takes such good care of my little dude. She’s always on time and when I get back he’s doing great and everything is exactly like I left it. This time my cat threw up a bit and Kristin cleaned it up. She even washes his plates from the previous day. Absolutely wonderful with pets, and I’m always at ease when I know she’s checking in. Thank you!!

Kendall was great with my cats! Normally when we come home from a trip they seem agitated, but after having Kendall check on them they were happy, calm and seemed like they got a mini vacation too. Would highly recommend Kendall to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Ana was a great help checking in on my cat, Rose, while I was away for the weekend! She did everything I asked her to do and gave great updates. Rose seemed to take to her right away and didn’t hide at all like I had expected!

Julia was the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She was so communicative and spent extra time with my kitties. I have an elder cat and she did an amazing job administering her meds. Will definitely be hiring her again. 10/10 recommend for other cat parents!

Nicole is an absolute gem who made me so comfortable leaving my cats at home. She goes the extra mile to keep the space clean and water my plants and collect my packages. I was nervous not having anyone in the area to help with my pets while I was away but I rest easy now! Thanks, Nicole!

Amber did a great job checking on my cat and making sure she had everything she needed! She went above and beyond when there was a bad storm and offered to check on her twice in one day.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little girl, and then I went and decided to dedicate my work life to them, too. I not only have the privilege to care for the four legged family members you love, but my 9-5 is spent ensuring the quality care and training of seals, sea lions, penguins, otters, and manatees! So please trust that the love and care I give to my animals every single day will come right back around to the animals you love most. I work full time as a marine mammal trainer Thursday through Monday with varying shift times, but my hours are a consistent 8.5 hours/day. I am available in the evenings on my workdays 6pm-11pm for dog walks and drop ins! Just be sure to message me to confirm times, please! I adapt to your fur baby and routine at home! If your kid likes to lay on the couch and cuddle, that's what we'll do. If they need walks or to expel energy outside, I will do everything I can to meet those needs. I want their life to stay as consistent as I can make it, for both their comfort and yours.

Sharon was amazing with my three fur babies!! I have one cat who is super shy and she was so great with him and after a few visits he let her give him some love!! I hate being away but knowing she is there and loves them makes it bearable!! I will continue to use her ever time I am away, can’t imagine anybody else loving them as much as she does!!!

We had Jennifer check in on our cats while we were away for Thanksgiving, and she did an amazing job. Her communication was great and always kept us in the loop. She was professional, reliable, and went above and beyond—bringing in our packages and even cleaning up after the cats when they made a mess. We came home to happy pets and everything taken care of. Highly recommend Jennifer for anyone needing trustworthy and attentive pet care!
