“Emily was just so incredible with my cat, Freddie. I was so nervous about leaving him for the first time after he experienced a urinary tract blockage. Emily provided informative and loving updates each day and followed my (perhaps unnecessarily complicated) food and medication instructions perfectly. She made me feel so relieved that my cat was in safe hands while I was out of town. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Richard and Karen were great caretakers for our old cat. They showed up on time and shared photos of their visit to let us know he was doing alright while we were away. Definitely will work with them again!”
“Camila provided excellent drop-in care for both my cat and dog! They warmed up to her instantly! She was always on time, followed care instructions, and communicated well while sharing many reassuring happy photos of the two. I definitely look forward to using her services again.”
About: I have been cat/dog sitting for 3 years now. I have experience taking care of cats. Ive also watched many different types of dogs including large ones. Ive always been a huge animal lover and growing up around dogs always walking and taking care of them, making sure they get the love they deserve. I love doing anything that I can for the animal community Im currently working on online college so im looking to get any side jobs i can in the meantime to try and make some money right now In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions and routines to maintain consistency for the pet, and I always respect their space and privacy. I give regular updates to the owner, and I’m prepared to handle emergencies responsibly.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and understand the care each one (puppy-senior) requires. Many friends, family, and coworkers have trusted me to care for their fur babies - walks, feedings, drop-ins, etc. They have all become family to me! 🧡 That being said, I’d love to be apart of your pet’s daily care! I am currently available after 5pm Monday-Thursday, after 3:30pm on Friday and between 8:30am- late evening on Saturday and Sunday. I am very flexible overall! I have experience teaching basic dog training commands - sit, lay down, roll over, paw, etc. I can walk (3) dogs at a time. Long walks and play are essential for their well-being and health. Happy to take them to dog parks too!

Vanessa G.
“When i was looking for a dogsitter i was not only looking for someone who had experience working with dogs. i wanted someone i could trust with the care and love that i have towards my dog Lupita. Lupita is about 8 years old, has a few health issues with a strict diet. I had a business trip and needed a reliable person who not only "watches" my dog but also gives the love and care that i would. A friend of mine recommended Vanessa, she mentioned that Vanessa has dogs of her own and that she had previously cared for her dog as well so i accepted. Vanessa was phenomenal she not only did the regular things such as walked Lupita, and fed her. Vanessa made sure Lupita was comfortable with her before i left for my trip. I could feel at ease knowing i was leaving her in good hands. When i came back from my trip my Lupita was happy with vanessa, and she became my regular person when i went to trips. I would 100% recommend her to anyone who shares a strong bond with their pet as much as i do.”

April M.
“April has taken care of my cat numerous times. She is always on top of things and I always feel like my cat is in good hands when I leave for an extended period of time. Since my cat is very shy and has high anxiety, April always makes sure to give her CBD in her food and always makes an attempt to make my cat feel more comfortable. She keeps on top of keeping the litter box clean and makes sure to lock up when she’s done. April is a great cat sitter and I would recommend her to anyone!”
