Patricia was absolutely wonderful with our three cats! She was willing to come do a meet-and-greet so our oldest was more comfortable, and she made sure our cats got plenty of attention while we were out of town. Will definitely be booking in the future!

Anna was AMAZING! We booked her for a week long trip VERY last minute for two daily visits for three animals. We've never needed a sitter before and I was worried how our fur babies would do but we came home to happy, healthy pets. She sent multiple pictures every visit and laid all our worries to rest by the first day! We will definitely be booking with Anna again! We recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!

About: Hi! I’m a teacher and lifelong animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets and keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I bring a calm, patient, and reliable presence, and I’m very comfortable following routines and special instructions. My background as a teacher means I’m organized, responsible, and attentive to small details. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel at ease while their owners are away! Pet care fits well into my routine during summer break since I have a much more flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting with plenty of availability in both the morning and afternoon! I enjoy being active and outdoors, so incorporating pet care into my day feels natural and easy to manage while giving pets my full attention. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and making sure they get plenty of attention and companionship.

Angela was very flexible with us and was able to visit with Misty twice a day while we visited family out of state for a weekend. She made sure to get Misty her medicine, checked her water and litter, and gave her lots of love. She always gave updates and cute pictures. We appreciated working with her!

I highly recommend Ali’s services. I was looking for a sitter who not only loves my cats as her own but understands subtle changes in their health during my vacation. One of my cats is over 12 years old so I needed a sitter with veterinary skills and knowledges. I am glad that I have chosen Ali for my cats and will ask her again for next vacations. Her services are beyond my expectations.

About: I’ve had dogs for 7 years and regularly care for my parents’ and sister’s dogs. You can count on me to keep your home tidy, stick to your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates—because peace of mind is just as important as excellent care. I am a teacher, so during the school year I will be available weeknights and any time on weekends. During holiday breaks I’ll have more availability! When caring for a client’s pet in their home, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s normal routine to minimize stress and ensure comfort. I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, litter box cleaning, medications, and playtime. I take the time to bond with each pet, offering affection and attention on their terms—whether that’s active play or quiet companionship. I also respect the client’s space, keeping things tidy and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos and notes so they know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make both the pet and the owner feel completely at ease while they’re apart.

Allison did a perfect job checking in on my two cats while I was out of town. Booking her was fast and easy. She is punctual, respectful, follows directions, and is very communicative. She gave a thorough update and went above and beyond in her care. I definitely recommend booking with her. Thanks again, Allison!

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved being around dogs. I have grown up around many dogs my family owned and learned how to properly take care of a dog from a young age. My high school job was working at a doggy daycare facility and thats when I blossomed. It was a job I was excited to attendant and fell in love with many of the dogs there. I am very patient with dogs and will give them all of the attention they need. I would be a great fit for your dog because I will love the dog just as much as you do! At the moment I only work 3 days a week. This benefit's me because the other 4 days off I am free and more than happy to take care of your dog. I have flexible scheduling on my days off and can even set up a weekly schedule if needed. I live in a very loving home. It will just be me taking care of your dog so you wouldn’t have to worry about any strangers being around. I have a very big yard to be able to play fetch with your dog and a very nice neighborhood to take your dog on walks. I am more than willing to travel to your own home to take care of your dog as well and any needs that come along with it.

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!

Took good care of my dog. She gave him a bath and he smells like butterscotch. She even went back for an unscheduled last moment visit to check on the dog when I asked her because the dog was freaking out so much during my long day at work.

About: I grew up with animals and as an adult i have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have also enjoyed caring for friends and family pets when needed. I have volunteered at the ARL and received some training. I have an open schedule with lots of flexibility that allows for plenty of time to take care of or hang out with my furrbabies. I prefer to keep dogs leashed when a fence is not available. My cat stays indoors. I treat my pets as my children. For outdoor cats, it depends on the owner. I have seen GPS used to keep track of their location outside.
