Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My pet gets wet food so if your pets have complex food needs I can accommodate and do frequent bowl feedings and cleanings as needed. I also do complimentary deep cleans of litter boxes and claw trimming (upon request and pet’s level of comfort) for longer stays. Giving your pets a safe, comfy and clean environment is my priority.

Vivian watched our two cats while we are out of the country, she was great in communicating with us and taking care of our babies! She was also thoughtful about keeping our home clean and letting us know when the cats were running low on food. We are really happy with her and will definitely be excited to have her watch our cats again!

Vivian was fantastic watching my dog while house sitting. My dog has a lot of social difficulties and is not the easiest to take care of, but she expertly handled everything in such a way that me feel at ease while I was away. She provided enough updates (including pictures) so that I knew that my dog was not only cared for, but that he was very happy happy and healthy. Vivian was also an excellent caretaker of my apartment. She watered plants as necessary, and most importantly. When she left it was cleaner than I had even left it. All in all, Vivian went above and beyond to make sure that I enjoyed my time away from home without a single worry for my dog or my apartment. I can't recommend her enough!

Another great experience with Vivian. Vivian had an overnight stay with my two cats - she was communicative and I came home to happy cats.

Vivian was great, very accommodating of a last minute request and communicative. I would gladly have her sit again.

Vivian stayed in my apartment for an overnight with my two cats. She's kind and communicative. I came home to happy cats and a clean apartment, as a bonus. Thank you, Vivian! Highly recommend and would love to work with her again!

My preference is for cats and dogs that are open to meeting new people but I can adjust to the energy level or shyness of your pet.
