“Suzanne did a wonderful job with our fur babies. Our girl cat can be cranky or a sweetheart and Suzanne knew how to bring the sweetheart out of her. She sent delightful photos of Peanut rubbing all up and down her leg in greeting and running around the house excitedly playing or having zoomies. We knew our cat was in good hands with her from the very beginning - just a vibe - but she proved to be responsible, attentive, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure we knew Peanut was being loved, food and maintenance was being taken care of, and that our other pets were also safe.”
“Maria was amazing with our cats while we were away! We have an older cat that needs to be fed twice a day for health issues he has. She was always on time with feedings and took extra time to play with the kitties and keep them company. Would definitely rebook with Maria and recommend booking with her to others!”
“Audrey is my go-to every time I need someone to watch my cat. She sends the cutest pictures and updates. She is also great about communication around when she’ll be dropping in, if there are any changes to her schedule, etc. Thanks again Audrey!!”
“Rhea did a great job with Spock and took pictures so I could see how he was doing! I got home to a happy kitty and I appreciate her also bringing in a few packages I got. Thanks so much!”

“This was our first experience with Rover. Kristin did a great job dropping in to visit, feed and let out our new puppy. I loved the photos she sent! We will definitely book her again.”

“Tara is a great cat sitter! She was very patient with and loving toward my standoffish cat, very prepared for everything required for catsitting, and willing to go above and beyond when I needed it while I was away. I would definitely recommend her as a catsitter and am looking forward to working with her again in the future!”
“Amanda was great with my black lab! She visited my home when I was at work to let my dog out. Amanda provided my dog with lots of play time, a walk, and sent plenty of pictures. Would highly recommend her services! 🐕🦺🐾”

“Ally has been amazing with Gunther! She is very good about communication and providing updates. Leaves the house in great shape. He is always so happy to see her and know he’s well taken care of!”

About: When I take care of pets, I treat your home as my own and go above and behind to treat your fur babies as I would my own. My compassion and work ethic make me a perfect candidate for any pet sitting job. I work full time in an office but am very used to taking care of pets in other people’s homes. Due to my work schedule, weekends are best since I am able to spend more time with the pets. However I am totally fine with commuting from other homes to my office if that works for my clients. I figure out what each pet needs and I act accordingly. I treat clients’ home (and their pets) as I would my own: respectfully and with great attention and care. I believe it’s important to be open and communicative with my clients to establish expectations with both the home and the pets.
“Kelly took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. She was a great communicator and made sure to meet with us before we left so everyone was comfortable. I would highly recommend Kelly, and plan on contacting her any time we go out of town!”

“Gary obviously loves animals and they love him! He took great care of our pups at our house while we were out of town for a weekend. He also watered our plants which was super helpful.”

Second time booking Samantha, who was a referral from a coworker. I have two cats - one of them being medically complex and I feel relief knowing they are in her competent hands. I trust she has good judgement and cares for them. Last time I booked she allowed me to book an extra day last minute after I got stuck in a snowstorm. This time she turned on different lights and the tv for my cats to watch, which cracked me up but I thought was so kind and a cute idea. Thank you so much, Samantha!

Kelly is absolutely fantastic. She is super communicative when taking care of my pup, sends photos, is extremely timely, and my pup looks like she is having the best time. She took the time to do a Meet and Greet with us ahead of time and it made us feel super comfortable. We've had a great experience and would highly recommend her.

"Carissa was PHENOMENA with my cats! Even my most skittish cat warmed up to her quickly, which is rare!! She clearly has a natural way with animals and made sure my pets felt safe and loved while I was away. I came home to calm, happy, and well-cared cats. I will definitely be booking with Carissa again and highly recommend her
