“Hannah was the perfect sitter for our three cats while we were out of town! Our boys were extremely well-taken care of and Hannah provided plentiful photos and information during her drop-ins. She was kind and very communicative through the whole process. I highly recommend Hannah for anyone looking for high-quality pet care!”



“Jamie is the BEST! She has done about 20-25 drop in sessions with my cat and everything goes so smooth! I can trust her in my house and my cat adores her (and she’s afraid of everyone lol). But even better she brings in all my packages and mail. If I could give her 20 stars I would! Thanks Jamie!”


“Ashley was on time and attentive to my timid cat. She refilled the necessities and within a week the cat warmed up for pets and a chat. Would hire Ashley again!”


“I used Molly for drop in visits. Molly went above and beyond what I asked and maintained very good communication with me throughout my trip.”


“Lexi was very good at communicating and sending updates about my cat. She seemed very responsible and took good care while I was gone. I felt at peace leaving my high energy kitty in her care!”


“Jaden was GREAT!”


“Brianna has continued to do an outstanding job of caring for my cat. She has spent extra time giving her love or play time periodically and has helpfully collected mail, packages, and put out the trash for pickup. She responds very quickly to messages and is very considerate in communicating any short, unexpected delays in to the house due to road construction, etc. Brianna was also very accommodating when I had to extend my trip an extra day.”


About: I’ve had pets since I was 2 years old! I’ve also worked with animals since I was 19 at several animal shelters, animal hospitals, and boarding places! I don’t currently have a car of my own to drive, which is why my pet care schedule is the way it is! I will be able to drive to see your pets when I have a car available to me which is Friday-Sunday, anytime after 12pm! I can drop in to give your fur babies much needed love and potty breaks! A fenced in yard is preferred so that there is plenty of room to play with your pup! However, I will gladly take your pup on a nice brisk walk if you don’t have a fenced in yard!
