Natalie took excellent care of our cat Milo while we were away. She was very detailed in her updates and even brought in a package that was delivered in our absence. I will definitely use Natalie again!

Tiffany is awesome! She did drop-in visits with our cat Marshall while my husband and I went out of town for a trip. He warmed up to her right away. She is very communicative and super quick to respond. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be re-booking in the future!

About: I have a deep love for animals especially since I have a 10 year old schnauzer back home in Florida who I miss every day. Being around pets again brings me joy and comfort, and I always strive to give that same feeling back to the animals I care for. I treat every dog like my own; with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I also genuinely enjoy walking outdoors, so your pup will always get the exercise and fresh air they deserve. Whether it’s energetic playtime or gentle care for seniors, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I love going on walks every day, especially in the spring/ summertime. So taking dogs along just makes those moments even better. Since I work as a competitive gymnastics coach in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are wide open for drop-ins, walks, and quality time with pets. It’s the perfect balance of movement, fresh air, and furry companionship! Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or dropping in for a visit, I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I take time to bond with each pet through play, cuddles, or just calm companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family, always making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well cared for while you’re away.

I scheduled Anna for drop-in visits to watch over my cat while I was out of town for a few days. Anna was wonderful! She kept me updated daily with messages and photos. She provided scheduled meals to my cat and spent time playing with him, all will being respectful of my property. If you’re looking for pet care while away, I recommend connecting with Anna!

Savannah was truly outstanding. I had just started fostering a dog a week prior to her coming in, and she stepped in flawlessly. Had no issue washing the bedding when an accident happened, exhausted both dogs and made them happy and safe through out the whole week. She’s competent, figured out where everything was, and professional to a T. Would rebook her for a longer vacation anytime.

Jackie was great with our pups! We’ve recently had a mobility issue with our one dog but she was understanding and was able to provide her medicine without any issues. She took our other pup out for a little walk each time in addition to taking them both outside for breaks. I could easily see how much fun our pups had with Jackie in the photos that she sent over!

Lauren was open to a thorough meet and greet prior to watching our two kitties, and she took the biggest weight off our shoulders while we were away. She sent plenty of updates, gave them their favorite treats, and lots of loving and play time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for loving them like your own! They’ll be excited to see you next time!

About: As someone who has hired many pet sitters myself, I know exactly what it takes to give an owner total peace of mind: immaculate communication, unwavering reliability, and putting safety above all else. I have extensive experience caring for dogs (and cats) at every stage of life. Whether it’s keeping an energetic puppy calm and safe after a spay/neuter procedure, or providing gentle, attentive care to a sweet senior, your pet is in expert hands. Why we’ll get along great: Medical & Post-Op Experience: Fully comfortable managing medications and post-surgery recovery restrictions. Love for Long Walks: I regularly exercise my "doggy nephews," and long, stimulating walks are one of my absolute favorite hobbies. Tailored Communication: I communicate exactly the way you want—whether that means frequent photo updates, quick text check-ins, or a detailed summary at the end of the day. Safety First: Your dog's well-being and the security of your home are always my top priorities. I work a standard full-time job, meaning your dog or cat will have my undivided attention during peak prime times! My availability includes: Weekdays: Before 9:00 AM & after 5:00 PM Weekends & Overnights: Fully available! Your Home, Your Rules: Safety is My Priority I fully respect and abide by all the household and safety rules you have in place. I am incredibly meticulous and will always ensure your home is left exactly as you want it. Here is how I keep your pets secure: For Dogs: Whether they use a fenced yard or require a leashed walk, I double-check that they are fully secure. If they use a crate, I ensure they are safely tucked in and the latch is completely locked. For Cats: I keep a sharp eye out for curious kitties to make sure they can't get into any hidden hazards. For Your Home: I am extremely detail-oriented—everything will be kept in its right spot!

Eronda provides exceptional pet care services. In addition to managing all the necessary physical tasks, she offered the genuine care and emotional support my cats needed during my absence. Because my pets are accustomed to my constant presence at home, being away was highly stressful for both them and myself. Eronda’s attentive approach mitigated that stress entirely. I highly recommend her services and will absolutely utilize them for any future extended travel.

Disha was absolutely incredible! My wife and I were away for 10 days, and she took amazing care of our cat, Little John, who is truly our pride and joy. She stopped by every day, provided great updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Disha is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!
