“Pam is awesome! Very responsive and an excellent communicator. I was nervous about leaving our kitten in someone else’s care but she put us right at ease and took excellent care of our kitty and our home. I would love to have her take care of our pets again anytime!!”


“Jovani took wonderful care of my dog and cat! My pets clearly loved her and even my cat who is afraid of everyone was excited to see her. She is communicative, reliable and friendly. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs!”


“Donna was great. Prompt arrival and constant comma while we were away. She sent pictures and let us know Shirley was scratching her face likely due to anxiety. She treated our dog wonderfully and I would not hesitate to book again”


“Jeff was so kind and took great care of our two cats while we were away for the holiday weekend. Our girls can be very timid and they warmed up to him no problem. He came over and met with us on short notice, and was very professional. Highly recommend his services to anyone. Thanks again!!”


“Bert was terrific! He had lots of patience and was caring with Sammy. Sammy is an 11 year old senior cat I adopted 5 weeks ago which means she’s still getting used to me and her surroundings. I was hesitant leaving her alone for a weekend so Bert house sat. She hid a lot under the which was completely understandable and didn’t surprise me. She ate her meals two times a day and he was able to coax her out a bit a couple of times with a lickable treat which was huge. Bert also sent several pictures a day which helped me rest easier. I would definitely have Bert back!”


“It was great having Cynthia care for Oliver yesterday. She arrived promptly and kept me updated with texts and photos which put me at ease since he suffers from separation anxiety. Throughout the day, my sweet boy enjoyed nice belly rubs and lots of cuddling. :) I was so happy Oliver enjoyed their time together! Cynthia is extremely kind, and I'll definitely contact her again when the need arises. Thanks again Cynthia!”


“Ashley was great - our dog liked her right away and he seemed very well taken care of when we got home. She stayed in our house and left it clean and tidy. She sent updates and was easy to communicate with. Mature and reliable. We will definitely be asking her to sit for us again!”


“Kelcee was fantastic! She took amazing care of Asya and sent the best pictures and kept me updated on how things were going. She made being away from my fur baby more calming for her momma!”


“Lia was a outstanding taking care of our cat, our house was clean and she followed our instructions perfectly. Lia gave us daily updates and pictures of Atari and it was very easy to communicate with her during her stay in our home sitting for our cat. We’ll definitely book with Lia again and we can recommend her if you are looking for a perfect sitter.”


About: Hello! My name is Anna, I am from Ukraine and I truly love animals with all my heart. I’ve spent my whole life around pets - dogs, cats, birds, and caring for them brings me joy and peace. I’m gentle, kind, and always patient, especially with nervous or shy pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality, and I do my best to respect that while also making them feel safe and loved. I’m very responsible, and when your pet is with me, I’ll treat them like my own with lots of cuddles, attention, and care. I’m also very respectful of routines and special instructions. Whether it’s a fun walk outside or quiet time at home, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and relaxed. I would be honored to care for your furry (or feathered!) family member. 🐾 I have over 15 years of experience caring for animals. I grew up around pets and have always felt a deep connection to them. Whether it’s walking energetic dogs, comforting shy cats, or looking after birds, I love making every animal feel safe, loved, and happy. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m always happy to make it part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon visits, or overnight stays, I plan my schedule around the pets I care for to make sure they get the attention and time they need. I’m responsible and very organized, which helps me stay consistent with feeding times, walks, medications, and play. I also love spending quiet time with animals, just being present with them. Whether it’s a busy day or a calm one, pet care is something that brings me joy and peace - it never feels like a chore. 🐶🐱 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly space free of hazards and stress. I follow all instructions carefully, especially with food, medications, and routines because I know how important consistency is for animals. I’m very gentle and respectful with pets, especially if they are shy, elderly, or need time to adjust. I never force anything - my goal is for your pet to feel safe and loved. I also pay attention to their body language and needs, whether they want playtime or just quiet company. Building trust is important to me, both with pets and their humans. I always communicate clearly, send updates, and treat every pet like they are part of my own family. 🐾

About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and have been taking care of my friends and families dogs the past 5 years. I have taken care of dogs of all different sizes and breeds. I am a full time social worker with a hybrid role which means I’m home a lot during the week even when I’m working. I always have weekends off and am available to take care of pets pretty much every weekend. I offer at home services and can easily stop by multiple times a day to provide food, walks, and all the pets necessary to make sure your pet is happy while you are away. Also open to house sit if 24/7 care is needed.

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and hamsters and I am willing to experience a lot more! Don’t worry, I always enjoyed animals and providing them with love and care, so your mind will be at ease when you are away. I currently am in school full time. I am on a per diem work schedule right now. Aside from studying, I have plenty of time to see your cute companions, and spend time with them. Who knows, maybe while we’re together we can become the best study buddies As I’ve had plenty of experience with Cats, I’m well aware of choking hazards on string like materials. I try to keep items like this out of reach! I am very clean when it comes to my space and noticed that this helps as some kitty’s can be a little curious and knock things off surfaces. When things are put away correctly there’s less chance for mess or danger. I am still gaining some experience with Dogs and puppies. As far as safety, I only do leashed walks to not only protect your pup but others who may be passing by as well! Again, I'm pretty organized and will avoid leaving items out, especially food! I know some animals are very food motivated and leaving food products out can be dangerous.

About: I've had the opportunity to work/volunteer at a dog kennel for 7 years. I've taken care of small puppies, big dogs, and everything in between. If you need a dog walker, house sitter, or just a play mate...I got you! I've also have two little puppies back home (Milo and Kiba)! I work fully remote, so I can stay over or swing by if needed! My time is fairly flexible, but would like a days notice of possible. Can make this a frequent routine! I unfortunately cannot provide housing as I live in an apartment complex at does not allow it. However I'm free to come over and visit if provided!

About: I have experience caring for a wide range of animals—including cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, chickens, and bunnies—and I bring compassion and attentiveness to every pet I look after. As a dedicated student currently applying to veterinary schools, my passion for animals drives everything I do. You can trust that your pet's well-being will always be my top priority. When I am not at the veterinary clinic, I am with the animals I am pet sitting or walking. I give plenty of time for enrichment and to let them feel at home and loved. This involves more than an hour of enrichment plus feeding in the mornings before I head off to the clinic, an hour for exercise in the afternoon, and then I spend my evenings with my four legged friends after work. I don't host animals in my own house, but I am more than happy to stay overnight at your house so your animals are more comfortable in their own environment.

About: I absolutely love animals, have a dog and 3 cats myself. I spend a good part of my day with my dog either at the park or walking in nature. I can take your dogs for a walk or stop by for a visit, feed them and let them out for a potty break. I can also visit with your cats or dogs and give them some food and love while you are away. I can be trusted to treat your animals with the same love and respect I do my own. I am also available to board dogs overnight on a limited and case by case basis. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns that you may have. I am also an EMT and have been trained in both human and canine CPR. I work from home and local afternoon visits or walks are easily worked into my schedule on a weekly basis. House Sitting and stays are on a case by case basis once you are an actual client and I have had a few visits to get to know you and your fur babies. Please ask any questions on availability. I can work with you on whatever is best for you and your animal. Whether you are at work and would like to leave a key, give a passcode or some other arrangement just let me know.

“Ani is amazing!! She sat for our two dogs, Bunny and Sheila for over a week. She took wonderful care of them and went above and beyond (brushing them, cleaning their eyes etc.). Sheila, our Pom, is adopted and has issues on her leash. This didn't stop Ani from walking her! Instead she took the time to work with Sheila and try to get her leash issues to improve. Ani sent us multiple daily updates, walk routes and photos. Our dogs are the most important things in our lives and it is hard leaving them at home when we go away. But with Ani we know they were cared for in a warm and loving environment. And we know they had fun! You shouldn't hesitate to book Ani to care for your pets!”

About: I have owned, loved and cared for many dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and rabbits since I was very young. I take pride in my work! I currently work full-time days, but have a little bit of time early mornings before work, and have plenty of time after work and nights, and weekends most of the time. We have fenced in yard with plenty of space for running, playing. My family members and I love pets. I pay special attention to detail.

Anna K.
“I’ve known Ania for several years, and if there’s one thing I can say with full confidence—it’s that animals absolutely love her. She has a natural gentleness that pets trust right away. I remember when my cat, who usually hides from everyone, walked straight over to her and curled up next to her within minutes. That never Ania is extremely responsible and thoughtful. She always pays close attention to details—whether it’s giving medication, cleaning the litter box thoroughly, or sticking to a feeding routine. She also sends updates and photos, which is so reassuring when you’re away from your pet. What sets her apart is her emotional intuition. She truly sees animals as individuals. She notices when they’re nervous, when they’re tired, when they need space or play. And she responds with such care and understanding. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Ania is the one. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust her with any animal I love.”

Danny T.
“I definitely recommend Danny as a "go-to" dog sitter. He's a very caring, reliable, and knowledgeable sitter due to his experience working at a kennel working with dogs and cats in the past. He had been a long-standing pet sitter for me for the last 4 years. He has gone above and beyond whenever I had a last-minute emergency on needed a dog sitter, he would be available to help me out.”


Oriana A.
“I had Oriana come to check on my cat Peter who has a lot of medical issues and needed medications. Oriana came to my apartment on time, was respectful of my items, and medicated and fed my cat without any troubles! Oriana is kind, professional, and detail-oriented. My cat is nervous of people and she was able to give him his medications. I would trust Oriana to come to my apartment again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend. 10/10.”
