Aaron is always the first person I can when I need a cat sitter! I can tell he's sweet to my cats in the same way I am, he's truly their cat uncle! I always appreciate how long he stays with them and he's willing to check in more frequently if asked. He's even gotten good at searching around the house in case my more excitable boy has left a hairball pile somewhere, he's always sure to clean it up for me. We love Aaron!!

Aaron Pitman has been our family's pet sitter for many, many years. We first hired Aaron in 2020 when we had two senior cats that needed delicate and attentive care while we went on vacation for two weeks. Aaron cared for our two sweet old ladies with the same love and tenderness that we do! We regularly received photo and text updates about how the ladies were doing, and we even caught a glimpse of our timid girl sitting in his lap (truly unprecedented!) When our sweet girl Punkin passed away in 2023, he grieved her as if she was his own pet and gave us support during that challenging time. Now, we have one senior cat and one kitten. The kitten requires a lot of attention and mental stimulation, but I can always count on Aaron to make sure that she gets to play instead of sitting around bored all day. He makes sure that the senior cat is well taken care of, and that she gets her daily quota of pets in. There is truly no one else I would trust with the care of my girls. So much so that I would genuinely ask Aaron in advance to ensure he's free during the times we intend to go on vacation. If you are someone who cares a little too much about your pets and worries about them when you're gone- take it from another anxious pet owner--Aaron is your man! Your babies will be in good hands so you can enjoy some rest and relaxation.
