“Ember had fun playing with Vicki over Christmas! She was very detailed and competent and it was a relief to know I didn't have to worry about my kitty while I was gone! Thank you!”
“Bonnie did such a great job taking care of our cat while we were away! Her communication was excellent and we loved the daily updates! We would highly recommend her!”
About: For my first birthday, my parents' landlord gave them a puppy to give to me as a present. Since then, I've rarely been without at least one dog or cat companion. I've cared for dozens of pets for friends and family over the years: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even the occasional reptile. I'm ready to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I’m available both weekdays and weekends. Morning, afternoon, or evening, whatever works best for you and your pet! I have tons of experience with dogs and cats and can follow any directions and honor any requests you have so that you can feel certain your pet is getting safe, loving, and quality care.
“Booked Lauren at the last minute sight-unseen for drop-ins with my cat over Labor Day weekend. She showed up on time each day and sent a message with photos each day too. Upon arriving home, I found everything in order. And the cat had been acting very normal. So happy with Lauren. Highly recommended.”
“Mikael made sure out kitties were well-fed and loved while we were out of town! They seemed very content when we came back home! Very communicative and easy to get a hold of! We would be happy to have her pet sit again!”
“Alexis is the best and worked really hard to make Walter feel comfortable, I will definitely be using her again. Let me tell you a story. One morning, Alexis was checking on my dog. She accidentally locked herself out of my house. Bummer, right? I was really mad for a while. Not Alexis' fault, since I thought my roommate wasn't going to be home but he actually was and locked her out without realizing it. Anyway, instead of leaving my dog in the yard and leaving, she stayed with my dog until I came home from camping that afternoon, gave him water, walked him extra, and kept him from freaking out. She really treated my dog like her own.”
“David did a great job with our dog with behavioral issues. His thorough updates helped to keep me from feeling anxious about her care while on vacation. He was very professional and reliable. I highly recommend!”
“She was amazing with Beans. Love the daily pictures. Super thoughtful, brought in some packages that were left out in the rain for us. Very happy with the service.”
“Dylan is a kind and attentive cat sitter who not only ensures my cats get the care they need but also treats my house very respectfully cleaning up pet messes as he sees them.”
“A very nice, well adjusted young lady. Listened to, and followed instructions. Asked the right questions. Took excellent care of our very shy cat. We already have her booked for another stay.”

“Rachel did a fantastic job watching our cats while we were away. She went above and beyond their needs and was very prompt with communication! We will definitely book with her again.”
About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.
“Kelly was so great! Pistachio isn't the most friendly cat but Kelly got some "Stache snuggles" out of her. Very prompt and super communicative! We'll be inviting Kelly over to play with Stache again soon!”
“Dakota appears to have checked all boxes requested! Cats are older and pretty inactive, but i see no problems at all. Communication was steady and reliable. Thanks Dakota! Planning on using her in the very near future if she is available.”
