Caitlin is always so attentive to Seuss’s needs (and our worries while away!). She’s very communicative and helpful. It’s so nice to know Seuss is in great hands while we can’t be home with him! We will definitely book with Caitlin again!

Sage claimed he didn’t have any experience with cats but he took care of Sophie without a hitch. He is courteous, punctual and dependable and provided all the care and nurturing she needed. His report cards showed a contented cat, and he was considerate in keeping our home neat. We will gladly ask Sage to come care for Sophie in the future.

About: Hello there! I am a former veterinary assistant with 6 years of experience in the field. I have experience with cats and dogs of all age ranges and mobility levels and I’d love the opportunity to give your babies the care they need while you’re out and about! I know it can be quite anxiety inducing to leave your baby in someone’s care, so I am more than happy to send you as many text and picture updates as you’d like! I am currently working a full time 8am-5pm after leaving the veterinary industry, but would love the chance to be hands on with animal care again! I am available on the weekends to watch your baby if you’re working or just enjoying a day in the city. I will be vigilant for anything in the home, yard, or out on the street that may pose a risk to your babies safety and well being while in my care! If your baby has any special instructions or needs, please let me know and I’ll be sure to follow them during our time together!

About: I have been around animals my entire life and absolutely adore them. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their animals while away and I have plenty of experience feeding, walking, bathing, and playing with various types of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, horses, and birds. Currently I don’t own any pets of my own and I’m missing their company! I currently am working from home on a lenient schedule so I have plenty of time to care for your furry baby in any capacity. I am extremely respectful of personal belongings and routines if you’re in need of in home care for your animal. I love the outdoors so I’m more than willing to come scoop up your dog for a fun day outside!

I had a great experience working with Russell. He was friendly, professional, and very accommodating, even agreeing to watch my cat while taking care of 4 other animals for the holiday. He clearly cares about pets, and did a great job with my cat (although my cat doesn't have any special needs). I would certainly ask him to help out again.

About: *Pros with booking my service*: ~I am a full time pet sitter! ~Experience! (Ive been doing this for 6 years) ~Professionalism (I was a lawyer before leaving law to focus on part-time travel and full time pet sitting 😉) ~Trust (The majority of my clients are repeat clients) Hospitality and care go hand in hand with my pet-sitting service. For a house sit, expect your home to nicer than when you left it. Your fur babies will be relaxed and happy to see you when you return having been lovingly cared for in your absence. I will strive to uphold whichever boundaries you h have set up for your pup and work to reinforce training. Have your pup stay with a familiar face while you're away! In addition to personal experience with animals over the years, I have professional experience volunteering at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah. One of the largest animal rehabilitation clinics in the world. I hope I can be someone you wholeheartedly trust with the care of your beloved furry one. I currently work full time as a pet sitter in addition to small freelance work so my schedule is flexible. On weekdays I will be gone for short periods of time but can be back every couple hours. I always make sure to get my pups set up when I leave the house. I'm a very hands on pet sitter. I understand the needs of animals and their lil personalities intuitively and I like to check in to make sure they are safe and happy.

About: I am a flexible, reliable pet owner and lover. I understand the amount of energy some pets can have, and I work to meet their individual needs. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality. I am available many days of the week to take care of your babies while you are away at work. I love sending updates to pet parents through out the day so that they can see what their babies have been up to. I also have an older dog with special needs, so I am understanding of pets with disabilities or medical needs, and I know how scary it can be to leave your pets with someone new. I am available to take dogs on plenty of walks through out the day to ensure that they are getting the exercise and attention they need. I have taken care of various types of animals for many years and I understand how important they are to a family, so I strive to treat everyone's pet as my own. I have toys and leashes and treats so that all my pets have a great time, and to make drop off and pick up easy on the owners! I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can be available according to your pet's regular routine and needs. I like to stick to the pet's regular routine as closely as possible. I like to learn about each pet and it's owner so that I understand their usual routine, so that we can stick to what they are used to as closely as possible to minimize seperation anxiety and prevent any schedule disruptions.

Devin was great! He took great care of our girls (two young cats) and kept their boxes tidy, their bowls full, and their spirits high while we were gone for an extended vacation. He even was able to pop by last-minute when we realized our water fountain had stopped running. Definitely recommend!

Ms. Rachelle is the most amazing cat sitter! Our elderly cat requires daily meds and Rachelle administered them to her, without issue. We are so thankful to have the peace of mind that our fur babies are well taken care of by Rachelle while we travel! We recommend her wholeheartedly and will definitely have her care for Shell again!

I messed up and left the chain hooked on the door so Jasmin couldn't get in. Fortunately, my cats had enough food and water to last until I got home. Jasmin was very kind about my mess up and still came to visit and pet the kitten through the crack in the front door!

Gerome's natural ability to commune with animals was present during both drop off and pick up of my cat. I returned to find my selective/discerning sweet pea snuggled up with her pet sitter in a relaxed and trusting pose. She did not want to come back with me! I will choose Gerome in the future to care for my love. Gerome was highly communicative during my time away from my cat. She sent me many photo updates, which allowed me to feel at ease during our separation.

Deana was awesome. I cannot give enough appreciation for the care and love she provided for my two cats while I was out of the country. My boys are super shy, and they were comfortable enough with her to come out, get treats and cuddles, and she even put my trash bin out for trash day. Will absolutely utilize her services again!
