“Julia is a fantastic pet sitter! She is extremely reliable and we can tell that she truly loves animals — it is apparent in the playtime, snuggles, and beautiful photos she sends. She made us feel so comfortable while we were away. She went above and beyond for us - we had forgotten to cancel a meal delivery kit and she brought it in and unpacked it into fridge for us. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be booking again!”
“Yana was fantastic and a great help. She took notes on how to best care for our fur babies and made sure they were happy and healthy. Her care gave us such peace of mind!”
“Alana is fantastic! Our cats took to her quickly, which is the highest compliment. She was punctual, an excellent communicator, and provided thorough reports during her daily check-ins. She went above and beyond by doing things that weren't asked of her, like sweeping up. Alana made us feel confident our pets were well cared and we will definitely contact her for future bookings.”
“I cannot recommend Samantha highly enough! She took absolutely amazing care of my two cats while I was away. From the moment we first spoke, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. Throughout the entire time, she kept me updated with lots of adorable pictures and sweet messages, which made me feel completely at ease. It was clear from the photos and videos that my cats were not only well cared for, but also genuinely happy and comfortable in her presence. She spent quality time playing with them and making sure they had everything they needed. Thank you!!!!”
“I had a great experience with Kathleen! She took wonderful care of my two kittens while I was away—both were happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. Communication was excellent throughout, and I really appreciated the updates and reliability!”
“Our pup loved spending time with Brian! He was easy to schedule and communicate with, and made sure our pup had everything she needed. She has some anxiety and she has been more relaxed after his visits. Will book again!”
“Sasha was punctual and followed instructions to a T! She proved to be really kind and gentle with our cats, and was especially patient with one of them that is pickier about eating. She even tried to find different ways to encourage him! Would definitely book with her again! Thank you so much, especially since it was a last minute request!! 🫶🏼”

About: I am an active individual who loves caring for animals and spending time with them! I have had two dogs in my life and have always been attentive to their needs. I just graduated from undergrad and will be starting my masters in counseling this fall while working part time, too. I manage my time well! I care for pets in clients home by being respectful of the fact that this is not my house. I am being trusted to care for a pet in someone else’s home and I take that very seriously.
About: As a behavior therapist, I have extensive experience observing and understanding animals’ behavior, which helps me provide thoughtful, individualized care. I’m skilled at reading cues, redirecting play safely, and providing comfort to shy or anxious pets. This background allows me to create a calm, fun, and safe environment, whether your pet needs gentle guidance, interactive play, or just lots of love and attention. Pet care is a regular and meaningful part of my routine. I enjoy spending time with animals daily, whether it’s playing, providing affection, or observing their behavior to ensure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m organized and attentive, so I can easily incorporate walks, feeding, and playtime into my schedule while giving each pet the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every visit. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure the environment is secure and pet-proofed, with doors closed and hazards removed. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, provide plenty of attention and supervision, and use treats or toys to encourage positive behavior. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and happy space where pets feel comfortable and cared for at all times.
“Cressida was terrific and I highly recommend her! My three cats loved her and well cared for by her over the course of five days while we were away. She was responsive, communicative, shared photos of the kitties every day, and follow all of the instructions that I had shared with her during an in person introduction ahead of our vacation. We will definitely hire her again for help when we are out of town!”
