Pet care experience
We are huge animal lovers and have grown up taking care of cats and dogs. I (Calla) started petsitting part time in 2020, then my partner Mario joined me in 2023 after we took care of 3 pitbulls and 3 cats together, and we realized we make a great team. He’s also a fitness trainer so he can handle walking the bigger/ stronger dogs and if you have an energetic dog, he will be happy to run or train with them. Since petsitting together, we've had the pleasure of caring for over 30+ furry friends, each with their own unique needs and personalities. From anxious cats to a Collie with a heart murmur, to a Boxer with a tumor, and even a blind 20-year-old senior dog mix, we've provided specialized care, including administering medication and cooking special meals. We're also seasoned home caretakers. We have experience handling responsibilities including: plant care, jacuzzi maintenance, paying housekeepers, coordinating with gardeners and running errands when needed. We're not your typical sitters, we're your pets second family. 🐈⬛🐕🩵 We treat them as our own. We are here to make sure this a anxiety-free experience, ensuring both you and your furry family members can relax and enjoy every moment 😸 And if you aren’t sure, message us and we can schedule a free meet and greet first 😊
Reviews
Calla and Mario are very patient winning over a nervous dog. Appreciate that they go at the speed of the dog. 😁
Calla and Mario are the best sitters we’ve ever had. Their trustworthiness, respectfulness and exceptional communication skills stood out since day one. They treated our house with such care, leaving it spotlessly clean, which was a wonderful surprise for our return. On top of that, they left a really heartwarming note for our return together with a couple of treats to help calm our travel-weary hunger. Most importantly of all, they showed our furry children a lot of love. Seeing our pets so happy and well-cared for in our absence was incredibly reassuring. We wholeheartedly recommend Calla and Mario to any pet parent seeking a worry-free, loving experience for their furry family members.
They were the absolute perfect sitters for our kitty Sherlock. First, Calla and I had a great chat during which she asked lots of great questions to ensure the sit went smoothly. Secondly, it took Sherlock some time to warm up to them but they were very communicative during the time he was feeling a little anxious. We worked through some options and by the second day he had relaxed. I came home and everything was tidy, clean and Sherlock was a happy guy, I recommend them very highly!
Calla and Mario have become my go-to sitters for looking after my 3 pitbulls and 3 cats when I'm away. Traveling has always made me anxious, especially when leaving my pets behind, as I've had experiences with sitters in the past who struggled to manage the care my pets require. With energetic pitbulls that demand a lot of attention, I was pleasantly surprised to return home to content and tired dogs. Calla and Mario consistently exceed my expectations by fulfilling every need and request I provide, making my travels worry-free. I highly recommend them for any pet care needs you have.
