“Marta is the best! She takes such good care of my 2 cats and is super reliable. It is such a nice thing to have peace of mind that my pets are being so well cared for when I'm away. This is our second booking with Marta....she is now one of our favorites”

“Overall Liz was great! Good communicator and sent lots of photos. She was very nice and friendly from the start. She gave detailed updates every day. Liz went above and beyond by cleaning the food and water bowls, scooping the litter and taking out the trash. The home was clean and just like how it was left when we came back.”

“I can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our cat while we were away. She was attentive, reliable and genuinely caring. Our usually shy cat really bonded with her and he got a lot of pets and one on one playtime, which was great. The updates and photos after each visit gave us total peace of mind. Truly a fantastic sitter!”

“Daisy was fantastic! She was proactive in reaching out to set up a meet-and-greet, asked good questions, and took fabulous care of our cat. Will very look to use her again and highly recommend her!”

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 wonderful years, dogs are my passion! They love me and I love them, from puppies to seniors, toys to giants. I am lucky have a fenced in, wooded, private, 2 acre property with plenty of room for zoomies. My beagle, Piglet, is also a fine hostess. She loves to have canine company to play with, then snuggle with us and relax at my comfy, quiet home together. Piglet is my sweet rescue senior beagle. She's friendly, quiet and submissive. She has the final say on who may enter Her Queendom. Dogs are my main gig, so I will be with your babies almost 24/7. When I go out, I bring Piglet and friends along with me everywhere I can, especially to parks, trails and forests. But if your dog is more of a homebody, I can easily stay home with them all day. I live in a safe, wooded, quiet, 2 acre, fenced-in lot. There are lots of dogs on my block who love to socialize and have play dates if that's what your dog is into. I'm at the end of a dirt road, nowhere near any traffic, so it is very safe and private.
About: I have been surrounded by animals all my life, I had take care of dogs, cats, birds, tortoises and fishes. Animals have always been a important part of my life and I love them I am free all the days of the week except for Tuesdays and Thursdays, it's when I go to college, but I I still can make some arrangements if necessary I lived in a beatiful home 🏠, in a good neighborhood to take walks with my dogs 🐕, it has locked doors so my pets stay inside and safe
About: As a kid, my family would often take care of our friend's dogs, but we never had one of our own. Now, I'm a dad of three young humans and one bundle of fluff named Simba. Oh and let's not forget Victoria, our rabbit. We love havinganimals, and we still love watching other people's animals too. I'm also offering to house-sit, and take other people's dogs (either solo or with my Simba) for walks. I mostly work from home and never leave a dog alone while in my care. We take several walks per day, including morning, lunch, and at least two in the evening. I have a comfortable living space, a nice yard area, nice green space and a park nearby. When dogsitting, I take very little space for myself and leave the space better than when I found it.

Christy is very responsive and took excellent care of our two elderly cats. Each has his own special needs (diabetes and kidney issues) and need to be kept separately while we are away. Christy made sure each was taken care of and have attention to each. We will definitely be using her again

Cheryl was taking care of our cat Chimney for a week and we are thankful to find a happy kitty upon our return. Our furry friend was well fed and loved and the feeding area was clean and perfectly maintained. Cheryl responds in seconds, maintains great communication and really cares about wellbeing of the whole family!!! Thank you, Cheryl!

This is the second time Stephanie has taken care of our cat. She is wonderful - trustworthy, caring and responsible. Our shy cat really responds to her and while we’re away, we’re so happy that he’s in such good hands. She really understands and knows how to relate to cats!
