Abby’s services are great! I used her for a 30 minute check in and asked her to play with my dog but he wasn’t in a playful mood so she walked him instead! She’s keen on listening to the needs of my dog. Will absolutely keep using her for drop ins and walks!

She quickly picked up on their personalities. And, I could tell they thoroughly enjoyed her visits. I'd be happy to have Courtney catsit again -- and I definitely recommend her to others.

Best cat sitter ever! Morgan took our four cats under his wing while we were away for a long vacation. Daily reports where thorough and photos were reassuring, and helped keep us comfortable and worry-free. Morgan is a godsend, especially for cat parents who want the best care for their babies. He is easy to talk to, has a genuine love for cats, is trustworthy, reliable, and will do his best to make sure your babies are cared for. Thanks, Morgan! Our babies are thankful, too! Andy

Heather took excellent care of my cat while I was out of town for a whole week. She provided me with regular updates, sent tons of pics of play time or just to get clarification on anything. I left some notes on details about my cat and things items to address and she followed them to the letter! She even offered to brush her when I mentioned she likes that. Could not recommend Heather any stronger! She’s awesome!

About: I am interested in 30 minute check ins on your cat/cats. I take very seriously caring for animals and will take good care of yours.😊 I work w special needs adults during the week and would like to do something with my time off! Check ins on the weekends and some evenings would be great. I have a rescue cat, Callie, who I adore. My son has a cat, Biscuit, who I absolutely adore. Fortunately they live only a few miles away so I am able to see Biscuit regularly. My son texts me pics of her all the time!🥰 I adore animals and consider myself a responsible caregiver. I would love to do 30 minute cat check ins in my neighborhood. Thank you very much.

Julie was fantastic and our cats clearly enjoyed having her come by for a visit! We needed someone who could provide insulin injections for our diabetic cat while checking on and feeding our other two cats. It was a treat to see all the pictures Julie took of our cats being adorable and clearly seeking her attention! Haha! We're looking forward to hiring Julie again for our next overnight stay!

I am Susan Oliver's sister. Susan is a very kind and loving person and would be absolutely perfect to be a pet caregiver. She is also the most responsible person I know. She would bring these qualities to care for any pet. Growing up we always had a family pet and Susan was very loving and attentive to them. They also always responded to her in a loving way.
