“Estefania is an amazing cat sitter! She was professional, dependable, and truly committed to providing great kitty care for our little girl. On her first visit she took the extra time to show us that all of the care instructions were followed. Most importantly, she treated our cat as if she were her own, which made all the difference. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for cat care!!”

About: I have been around animals ever since I was born. I have had 4 dogs and 9 cats throughout my life. I have been trusted to watch family, friends, and neighbors pets. I love going on walks with dogs and working on basic commands such as sit, lay down, and paw. I enjoy playing with cats and giving them all of the pets if the cat seems like they want them. I can’t wait to help you take care of your pets! I have a pretty open schedule so I am available to take care of your pets throughout the day, any day of the week. I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets. When on walks I’ll make sure your dog is close to me when other dogs are present and make sure interactions with other dogs are limited to insure your dog’s safety. When it’s just your dog, I will give them time to sniff and go to the bathroom as they please. Inside of the home I’ll make sure they don’t have access to items that will harm them. If there are multiple dogs I’ll make sure they are fed separately and monitored. I’ll also monitor them while playing to make sure everyone is safe.

“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”

Kayla dropped in on my two cats a few times over the weekend. She was reliably there at just the right time and left my house in great condition, and the cats seemed calm and happy when we returned. She sent pictures and videos, which I loved. Communication was easy and fast. I would recommend Kayla and will ask her to watch my cats again!
