Sarah is amazing!! She’s very kind,thorough, and responsive. She always kept us updated and charmed even our most suspicious feline. We have a kitty who needs medications and she always made sure to include an update about that which is super appreciated and comforted. She did exceptional care and we will definitely be requesting her care in the future for our fur babies.

Jessica took good care of my two cats and my kitchen while I was away. She was flexible in returning my key the following day in case my late-night flight was cancelled. She took pictures daily showing that even my shy cat gave her the thumbs up.

Kara was wonderful! We had never left our cats alone for more than 2 days and were anxious about just having drop in visits for 4-5 days. She was communicative, thorough, and great with the cats. Even our shy cat came out of her shell for play time during visits which amazed me. I will absolutely be using her services again and would recommend her highly!

Jeff did a wonderful job with my 4 cats. I was really nervous leaving them alone with a stranger, but from the beginning he was very responsive and communicative. When he came by for the meet and greet it was clear he was a cat lover, and took the time to get to know my cats individually. I left him very complicated instructions (4 cats, 4 different diets, all 4 needed medicines), and he handled it like a pro. He sent me a ton of updates, photos and videos, and it was clear he put a lot of time into playing with them, petting them, bonding with them... I felt like I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation because they were in good hands. Highly recommend him!

Addelynn was great watching my cats, and would definitely recommend her! Super easy communication to schedule and coordinate keys with her. She took care of both my cats & sent updates and photos for my peace of mind while I was away. It seems like she already became close friends with my cat Ricky who was purring in her lap after only 2 visits, which makes having to be away even easier <3

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, with experience ranging from dogs and cats to turtles and hermit crabs. I’m comfortable caring for pets in all stages of life, from energetic puppies who need patience, consistency, and basic training reinforcement to senior dogs who may require extra attention, slower walks, medication support, or mobility assistance. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I understand that each animal has a different personality and routine, and I work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they are my own. I am currently in grad school, so my daily schedule is a little wonky. My days usually start around 8 am and end at 4 pm. Besides that I am wide open to care for your pet and I will be able to stop by during breaks in my days! I am more than comfortable to crate animals if needed. I am attentive and caring, the same levels I would wish someone would give my own pet.

Ashtin & Jenison are awesome! This is my second time booking with them to watch my cat, Duchess. I always get lots of photos and Duchess looks very happy. They even brought in a laser toy for her! They helped me out with last minute requests and also with two extensions on my last visit. They are super friendly and helpful, and seem to genuinely enjoy spending time with my cat. i will definitely book with them again!

We felt so comfortable throughout our trip with Angelee checking in on our cat! She was communicative, provided important updates with wonderful pictures, and paid close attention to our instructions! Our cat can get a bit finicky/down when we are out of town, but Angelee did an amazing job keeping him on his routine and making extra efforts to make sure he was well fed and well loved! We came home to a very happy and well cared for cat!
