David has been awesome with Roxi! He is great at communicating if he's running late, when he is grouping her together with other dogs, and clarifying if something looks odd in the schedule. He has been really accommodating with last minute changes, and making sure he prioritizes her safety.

Jose did such a wonderful job caring for our cats while we were away. Even if they were rather shy and rarely showed their faces, Jose ensured we were kept apprised of any activity to ensure they were alive and well. This is such a huge thing for us. We would absolutely recommend his services to cat families in the area.

About: Hi! I’m the pet sitter with real-life experience, not just puppy love. I grew up with a well-trained family dog, then raised a 1-year-old rescue with leash issues and behavioral quirks—turning him into a chill(ish), better behaved, happy pup. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, including seniors, and I’m confident handling everything from nervous first-timers to seasoned couch potatoes. I bring patience, structure, and affection to every visit. I usually work in an office 4 days a week but I have a very flexible schedule to come in late/leave early or chose a specific day to work from home. I care for pets like they’re my own, whether I’m in my home or yours. I follow your routines closely to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free. I’ve helped retrain rescue dogs and cared for senior pups, so I’m comfortable handling everything from medication schedules to leash manners. I keep things clean, calm, and consistent, and I never skimp on belly rubs or snack breaks. Every visit gets my full attention.

My husband and I have been trusting Chloe for the past two years with our girl Lucy! We used to board her but this caused her anxiety which in return caused us anxiety. But with Chloe we are able to relax and enjoy our time away with the one on one attention that Lucy is getting. Chloe goes out of her way to make feel Lucy feel comfortable and at home while away home! As a dog mama I always appreciate getting videos/ photos and little updates while we are away and Chloe always makes it feel like we are never missing a thing! Our girl can even be a little picky when it comes to places to do her business and Chloe went out of her way to accommodate her and find a spot that she felt safe at. We will definitely be using Chloe for many years to come!!

About: With over four years as a devoted pet owner and trusted pet sitter, I understand how it is to have someone reliable and compassionate caring for your pets. What sets me apart is the personal attention and consistency/consideration I bring every visit. I treat every animal like my own. From maintaining routines to providing comfort. I make sure your pets fed safe, seen and loved while you’re away. I take pride in being dependable and communicative so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands! I work full time during the week so weekends are preferred! Friday after 5:00 PM until Sunday the latest 11:00 PM! Weekdays are not preferred I have an apartment with two others. Open access for the dog to wander and play. Will take him out for walks when needed to get some fresh air and freedom!

Leylanah is the best pet sitter anyone could ask for. She has taken care of my cat several times and even some of my reptiles. I know she has several pet reptiles and rabbits of her own at home and she is such a dedicated sitter and lover of animals. She is the first one I will call if I ever need a sitter because she is reliable, organized and caring. My cat and my reptiles are more than comfortable with being handled by her and she ensures they always have everything they need even in the case of any emergency which did hape once and she handled it gracefully. I truly highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Just remember to leave to me spot too because she's literally my fav lol.

Carla was a great help during our recent trip, helping to care for our dog Poppy, as well as our two cats. She was on time, super communicative and sent so many cute pictures which put our minds at ease knowing the pets were having fun. We are excited to know Carla and work with her again! Thank you Carla!

Mia was great! We have a beagle who we rarely leave and she did a great job with him and our cat Sunny! The pictures each visit made the separation easier!

Eduarda was a fantastic cat sitter! She was considerate of all of my care instructions and the little preferences that my cats have with playtime and food. She was also attentive with keeping the place tidy (such as cleaning up after one of my cats had messed around with their water fountain) for the wellbeing of my cats.

Willow did such a great job looking after our queen! She came in advance to do a meet and greet and we knew it was a good sign when our 17-year old cat came right out to say hello. Willow asked all the right questions and we felt we were in good hands. All throughout our time away she sent tons of pictures and updates each day. She even shared potential concerns we hadn't specifically mentioned just in case they were things we wanted to know. We would for sure try to work with Willow again!

Vanessa did a lovely job caring for my elderly cat, Chia. She was able to give her pills straight into her mouth - a tricky task! I will definitely ask Vanessa to care for Chia again!

Ben is incredibly communicative and attentive. My cat Salem tends to get a little anxious when I’m gone, but thanks to Ben I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty! Would definitely hire him again, and highly recommend!
