“Laura is a treasure! She took care of our 2 cats in a loving and caring way, spent quality time with them each day, and made sure they got their medication and treats on a steady schedule. She also took care of our chickens feeding and egg collecting, as well as giving our hens some time to roam the yard each day. She communicated with us every day, sent photos regularly, and was very responsive to our messages. She has a calm demeanor, and was very attentive to our pets needs. I highly recommend Laura for your petsitting needs.”
About: My name is Maya. I am 19 years old and I am available all day everyday! I have 5+ years of animal experience, I have worked in the veterinary field, kennel environment, pet sitting and volunteered at rescues. I am also Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. It may seem I charge more than others but I do not charge much for more pets ☺️ Currently pet sitting is my full time job and I have full availability. I do want to start schooling by the end of this year to be a veterinary technician! To ensure every pets safety I am always outside with your dogs and I like to make sure all pets are accounted for. I understand that not all pets are super friendly and have boundaries so I try not to approach pets until they feel safe with me.
About: I’ve assisted with dog sitting alongside my mom and grandma, helping with playtime, and companionship. I’m patient, attentive, and following routines to ensure dogs feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have flexible availability as I am unemployed and already care for my own two cats and two bearded dragons daily. I provide attentive care in peoples homes, following routines closely. As an owner of two cats and two bearded dragons, I’m experienced with safety, cleanliness, and gentle handling.

Lauren did a fantastic job of taking care of my two cats for 8 days. They both are shy and do not come out for strangers. She came twice a day to check on them made sure they had fresh food and water. Cleaned the litter box and updated me on any odd behavior. I will definitely hire her again on my next time away from home.
Natalia was amazing. She immediately was comfortable with my three cats (all very different personalities) and so thoughtful of the care instructions provided. The photos she provided after every drop in were also great, and adorable. Highly recommend her services and will look to booking with her again in the future.
