Megan was amazing with our cat Roxy! Roxy takes a little while to warm up to people and Megan was SO great with her. She’s the first sitter that our cat has been really comfortable with. Megan was also quick to respond to any messages and left very detailed visit summaries with great pictures. I would definitely recommend Megan as a pet sitter-she was fantastic!

Zhao was absolutely amazing! My two cats loved her and she always sent thorough updates with plenty of pictures and videos. She responds to messages fast and I never had any worry about the cats in her care. She also went out of her way to help me with key logistics after my extra key ended up not working on my door. I 100% recommend booking with her!

Clare was wonderful with my 2 cats. She followed the instructions well and gave thorough reports (and pictures!) from her check-ins. My cats don’t usually warm up to a new caretaker right away but seemed to really like her. I also appreciate that she came over ahead of time to meet them and review their care instructions. I would definitely book Clare again in the future.

Jordan was a terrific sitter for our three cats. She was responsive, communicative and thorough in her care and her updates. We really appreciated her notes on how everything was going at home and how much our cats enjoyed her care. We have two cats that receive medication and Jordan seemed very comfortable and confident in caring for them. We'd definitely recommend Jordan and would use her services again!

About: I grew up with yellow labs my whole life so I have tons of experience with large dogs. I pet sat and walked dogs all throughout high school, college, and beyond! I have lived with many cats over the years and also love watching them ☺️ I’ve always lived with animals, so caring to them comes second nature to me. I currently work as a nanny and care for their dog, which is a great joy! I typically work in the afternoons and evenings (around 1-7 on Monday-Thursday), leaving me with plenty of morning and weekend availability! While I won’t be offering in home services due to my family’s dog, I will follow all expectations of your pet’s typical routine. I have experience walking large dogs who don’t get along well with other dogs and know how to navigate those situations with ease! Whatever it is you need, I can make it happen!

My cat is skittish and Kathleen had her eating from the palm of her hand. Literally! She was so patient and understanding of my cat’s weird little quirks. I would definitely recommend Kathleen to any pet owners out there. You can trust your pet with her.

Sarah was so amazing to our orange tabby Biscotti! He sometimes acts shy around visitors, but he was instantly engaged with her and got plenty of purring and play time. He recognized her even though he hasn't seen her since the meet and greet a while ago! Sarah followed instructions perfectly, communicated clearly, and definitely made our cat happy while we were out of town for the weekend. Highly recommend and we will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.

Lucy was very receptive to what my cat needed. She came for 1 visit while I was out of state. She provided a meal, checked water, checked my cats litter, and sent a few photos. I also got a few screen shots from my apartments camera and saw that Lucy even brushed Zelish and played with her which was really nice. I felt happy knowing my cat was well taken care of.
