I have nothing but praise for Shannon. She was eager to help with care of our house as well as care of Junia. She sent each “report card” so punctually after every drop-in visit that we never had to worry about anything. I hope she will be available the next time we have to go away.

Anna took great care of our Ombre cat while we were away. She was very responsible & trustworthy. She followed all our directions, spent time doing things our cat loves (like going outside), checked her litter box and provided updates/pictures. We are so grateful and would definitely book her again!

About: I've helped care for my previous roommate's 60 lb dog for 6 years while living together. This included letting him outside, taking him on walks, feeding him, and giving him medication when needed. I've also watched and cared for several other friends' dogs and cats while they were away. I'm currently working part-time and will have most of the summer off, so my schedule is relatively flexible at the moment. Happy to chat more about it! I will respect and oblige by any rules or boundaries set forth for your pets and within your home. Happy to accommodate and meet you where you're at!

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.

Each day during our weeklong trip, we looked forward to the detailed notes and various pictures of our boys whom we missed so much! Anna was reliable and responsive, and she cared for our cats as if they were her own ♥️

I can’t say enough positive things about Jess. We have a reactive dog, Harper, who is slow to warm up, and Jess treated her with patience and compassion. Now Harper jumps up on her when she sees Jess because she loves her so much. She will love your babies like they’re her own. She’s incredibly responsible, responsive, and a gentle soul.

Pulkeshian took amazing care of my cat for 10 days while I was away. He kept me updated regularly with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind. My cat, who can be shy around new people, warmed up to him quickly and looked happy and well-cared-for when I returned. I could tell she was given plenty of attention and affection. I highly recommend Pulkeshian to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter!
