“Briana did a fantastic job taking care of our cats. It set my mind at ease knowing she was comfortable with administering medications had the need arisen. Thanks!”
“It was such a charm to have Jessica take care of our cat during the busy holiday time in December. She is very prompt with timely responses, was able to understood our situation so well that she even proactively assisted us with a basement water leak problem when we were away. Saved us from a lot of damage during our absence. Would love to have Jessica sit for our cat any day.”
“Xuni was fantabulous. My kitties loved her! She even offered to entertain them with her own laser pointer. My younger cat, Soda, had just gotten spayed a couple days prior to me leaving, and Xuni handled the care of both of them so well. Baxter and Soda had to be separated while her incision healed, and Xuni made sure that both cats were given enough attention each!!!”
“Kim was great and took such good care of my cat! I really appreciate the updates and adorable photos she sent throughout the week. This was the second time Kim has taken care of my cat and I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Chelsea was great!!! She took great care of hops during her visit. She sent great pictures and was very good at communicating prior to visiting!! Will book her again!!”
“Holly was great at watching over our two cats, we recently adopted a kitten who is shy but opened up to Holly so well! She was responsive, nice, and kept our kitties company while we were away!”
“Nicole took great care of my pets while I was out of town. My maltipoo’s tail was wagging the first time he meet her. You can just tell that she loves animals. She is very reliable and sends pictures. I will happily be asking her to watch my pets again!”
“Nicole was great with my cat Hallie! Hallie is a very sweet and loving cat, but also very skittish around strangers. In a few short days, Nicole was able to gain her trust and Hallie would hang out with her. Nicole was very quick with responding to messages, particularly when I had questions or concerns, especially when Hallie was found to have some health issues less than a week before I was going out of town. Hallie seemed much happier and more energetic when I came back than when I left. I attribute that to Nicole taking such great care of her.”
“Sara is an outstanding find! I almost didn’t want to leave this review because I didn’t want other people to take her away from my sweet babies! She is incredibly kind and goes above and beyond. She leaves detailed information about each visit and share so many excellent photos so that we know our dogs are being very well cared for. We are so lucky to have her take care of our two dogs.”
“Paulina is a great cat sitter! She was easy to communicate with and was happy to meet us and our cat before we hired her. She is reliable and gave our cat plenty of attention while we were away. Would absolutely hire her again. Thank you, Paulina!”
“Kelly is an amazing cat sitter, took care of our little monsters not only for their basic needs but also going the extra mile trying to make them happy with a little more time to make them comfortable. Thanks so much, and see you next time! Cheers, Martin”
“Jen was fantastic! We couldn’t be happier with her exceptional care of our dog Finn! Jen kept us updated with texts, videos and photos. Between the long walks, movie time and playtime, I don’t think she missed us at all! I would not hesitate to call Jen again!!”
“Ashley was great with taking care of my dog while I was gone. My dog was just getting over being sick, so she needed a little more TLC, and Ashley kindly delivered. I am so grateful for her.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. Now I have 2 cats of my own which I adore. I love getting outside for walks any time of day and can do as long as your dog wants to! We just moved and I will not be working until a spot in daycare opens for my son. I can do daily drop-in’s and walks any day of the week. I will treat your home the way I would want a guest to treat mine and I will care for your pet like they are my own!
“Maya did a wonderful job taking care of my Lily. She sent lots of pictures and her updates were very informative. She also gave her meds, which Lily did not make easy, but she got it done. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Lily was well taken care of. I cannot give her enough stars!! I would book her again!!”
“Michelle is amazing with our three senior dogs. One is deaf, one is stubborn, and one is very excitable, so it’s definitely not an easy group to manage. She handled them all with patience and care, and after her first visit we felt completely comfortable.”

Great experience with Xuni! She was professional, punctual, and communicative throughout the entire trip. I especially loved the twice-daily check-ins; the 'proof of life' photos and videos she sent were fantastic and really put my mind at ease while I was away. Beyond just the basics, she went the extra mile by bringing in packages and keeping the litter area spotless. Most importantly, I came home to very calm and content cats—it was clear Maizey and Clementine were well-cared for and not stressed at all. I’ll definitely be booking her again. Highly recommended!
Jessica went above and beyond for us. While we were traveling she visited our senior cat multiple times a day during snowfall and even shoveled the snow. Nothing but ease and peace of mind while our cat was in her care. We look forward to working with her again! Thank you!
Kevin took great care of my cats and made me feel a lot better about leaving them alone for the first time. I was unusually anxious, but he came over to meet me and them and learn their routine, and made me feel comfortable right away. He was very patient with Biscuit, who's shy, and I could tell Mango felt comfortable around him. Will definitely book with him again the next time I need a cat sitter.
