Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs Raised Me. Now a Cat Mom.
I started pet sitting by taking care of my friends’ cats and dogs whenever they travel. As a travel lover and a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can truly trust. I always want my own cats to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while I’m away, so I try to give my friends’ pets that same level of care and attention.

Safety, trust & environment
I always try to make pets feel safe and comfortable by following their usual routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box or regular potty breaks, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention and company. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I’m happy to give them cuddles or simply give them space—whatever makes them feel most comfortable!
Ratings and reviews
Pillar took amazing care of my 2 cats and my house on multiple occasions, for multiple weeks at a time. She went above and beyond, sent photos of the kitties and kept me up to date on their mood and well being. She really paid careful attention to my cats, monitoring their health and their medical conditions, of which they have numerous. You can really see she loves the cats, and that gave me peace of mind, knowing they were in Pilar's care. She played with my cats and I could tell they really loved hanging out with her. My shy younger cat, Booboo Sousa, really warmed up to her and even enjoyed cuddles, which is very unusual for her. She took good care of my house, it was very clean and tidy upon my return which was also much appreciated. Pilar is a wonderful cat sitter. Once you find someone who cares about your pets and house as much as you do, you know that you can really have peace of mind while traveling. Look no further for your cat sitting needs!
Pili is a wonderful and trustworthy pet caregiver. She has taken care of our cat, Ash, many times when we’ve been away, and we always feel completely comfortable leaving him with her. She is caring, responsible, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet.
Pilar is absolutely the best! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my pets. She is incredibly caring, reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands, and it was clear they felt comfortable and happy with her too. She kept me updated, paid attention to every little detail, and treated them like they were her own. I would trust her again without hesitation and recommend her 100% to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their pets!

Schedule
I work mostly from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I can easily make time for drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company throughout the day. Since I’m usually working on a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each pet’s usual routine and needs.
