Highlights
Pet care experience
Hands-on substitute pet parents
We have both grown up with and taken care of pets for most of our lives, and are excited to spend time with your pets (furred, feathered, scaled, or otherwise)! As hands-on cat parents ourselves, we treat your pets how we treat ours, which includes: - Lots of cuddles (or vibe cuddles if they're not particularly into being pet - our baby, Chompirras, prefers to just be looked at most of the time lol) - Plenty of activities curated specifically for your pet to keep them entertained (ours love cardboard puzzle boxes, yo-yos, and being given tours of different parts of the house) - Lots of pictures (they just look cute literally all the time - what are we supposed to do, not take a picture?) - Careful preparation of meals. Our cats deserve to have their own personal chefs - Administration of medication, if needed. (We have to give ours oral medications on a regular basis, and have successfully given meds to pill-dodgers in the past) - Monitoring for any suspicious behavior/ailments. We know how good some pets can be very skilled at hiding when they're not feeling well, so we keep an eye out for indicators that they may not be feeling their best - Catering to their little quirks. Does your pet only eat when someone pets them? Sleeps best with a bedtime story? We're not strangers to the many kind of personalities and emotional needs our smaller friends can have. A little bit about both of us: Sarah (she/her) is from Austin, TX and has been professionally pet-sitting since 2016 for many repeat clients. She has cared for the family dogs and her cat, Chompirras, for 13 years. Eko (they/them) is from a small farm in Rutherfordton, NC and has professionally pet-sat with Sarah since 2022. They cared for chickens (egg-chickens, each with a name), lizards (gecko and iguana), cats, and dogs their entire childhood, and two cats, Yue and Zuko, since 2020. As a team, we make sure that all your pet's needs are covered, day-in and day-out. We approach each pet that we have cared for with empathy, friendliness, and meticulousness. While we can never replace a pet parent while you're away on vacation or a work trip, we do our best to make your pet(s) feel as comfortable and secure as possible until you're back home with them.

Safety, trust & environment
When we care for your pet in your home, we keep life as normal as possible for them, i.e., sticking to their normal feeding, exercise, play, and sleep schedules. We also give them their space (if they're more introverts) or interact with them lots (if they can't get enough attention).
Ratings and reviews
Eko and Sarah provided excellent care for our kitties while we were away. They updated us every day with pictures and how things were going. It's nice to have that peace of mind knowing our kitties are in good hands. They looked like they had a good time. We will definitely be looking to book with them again in the future!


Sarah and Eko took care of our two dogs while we were away, and it was honestly the best pet-sitting experience we could have hoped for. This was our first time trusting anyone outside our family with our dogs, so we were nervous going in , but they put us at ease right away. They sent daily updates that made us feel like we were right there with our pups, kept our home spotless, and clearly went above and beyond out of genuine care, not just because it was the job. Because of them, we were able to actually relax and enjoy our vacation instead of worrying the whole time. We will rebook without hesitation, and we can't recommend Sarah and Eko highly enough to anyone looking for pet sitters they can truly trust.
Eko and Sarah were great with my cat. They sent lots of pictures and notes. They were prompt, attentive, and responsive. My cat clearly loved them and I felt great knowing she was well taken care of.

We cannot say enough good things about these two! They took such good care of our dogs in our house while we were gone, which made us feel at ease, leaving our babies with them. We got multiple daily updates and pictures and they were very attentive to the dogs needs and personality quirks. We will definitely book with them again. I feel that when we walked through the door, our dogs were slightly disappointed that it wasn’t Eko and Sarah..



Eko & Sarah always take great care of my kitty!

Eko and Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. They provided excellent updates and were extremely responsive when questions arose. I would absolutely trust them to take care of my kitties again in the future!

Schedule
UPDATE AS OF JUNE 25, 2025 (still current for January 2026): Hi there! We are booked for mid-day drop-ins during weekdays until further notice. We are still available for morning and evening drop-ins, as well as home stays. Thank you for considering us :) Both of us work from home 9-5 Mon-Fri, but have very flexible work schedules when needed (i.e., we're able to take longer lunch breaks, can start earlier or later, etc.). Caring for your pet is our priority.
