1. Izzy Y.

“Izzy was so sweet and attentive to our kitties! She updated us on them everyday and took such good care of them! Normally one of our cats does not like strangers at all and will hide the entire time, but she warmed up to Izzy fast! We will definitely rebook Izzy for any future trips!”

About: I am a student with free time and a love for animals! I’ve taken care of rodents, cats, dogs since I was a teen and I currently have 3 cats of my own. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and helping them feel comfortable. I am comfortable giving medications (one of my cats has special needs) and/or following other specific instructions. Please reach out with any questions! I have a flexible schedule, but sometimes limited during the day based on classes, almost always free on weekends. Please reach out with specific inquiry! I live in a two bedroom apartment with 3 of my own cats. The building hallways are indoors, no risk of your pet running out into the street.

15. ChunNing Y.
“ChunNing is a fantastic dog sitter! He has taken great care of my golden retriever, ensuring she gets plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet caregiver!”


16. Jessica C.

“Jessica is amazing and went above and beyond to take care of my two 100lb+ Pit Bulls for a week. We did an initial meet and greet prior to me going on vacation and she spent a good amount of time getting to know the boys and me, as well as familiarize herself with their routine and the layout of the home she would be taking care of them in. She was thorough and very attentive to them by playing with them and giving them lots of hugs, which in turn made them fall in love with her. While I was gone, she took them on walks up and made sure they had the time they needed to get in their bathroom breaks in (even if it took a long time), run around the yard, get hugs, and be calm. She did this even if it exceeded the time limit I had set for her drop-in visits. That’s how much she loves dogs and cares about their well-being and happiness. I never had a single doubt in my ability to trust Jessica, with the boys or in my home. They were exceptionally emotional and anxious the day I left and Jessica stayed with them, cuddling and hanging out with them on the sofa all night. She is an incredible person and dog lover and I would 110% use her again and refer her to everyone who wants reliable and loving care in a heartbeat. Her level of care made it possible for me to take my vacation in peace and trust and for that, I am eternally grateful.”


17. Alexander S.
“Alexander is great with animals he has a dog and a snake of his own which he takes great care of. I have a Rottweiler that he has watched many times over the years for me and she loves him. He makes sure she is well taken care of and makes sure she gets all the attention and exercise she needs. She loves seeing him walk through our door and I know she will be in great care with him. He has no problem sending updates and pictures of her while under his care.”


18. Tirzah W.

“My pup was in great hands!!”


19. Hailey L.
“Hailey walked my dog every day for a few weeks. She was so dependable and kind, and took such good care of my dog. Charlie loves to see her around and she is so sweet and affectionate with him!”

About: What sets me apart from everyone else is that, I have a strict and detailed time on when my cats get their treats and play time. And if you guys have the same for your pets I will follow those rules like I have been following mine for 4 years! I currently am in online school for dental assisting, so whenever anyone needs me to watch their fur babies I will be available most days. I have two cats that’s 2 and 4 years of age. They’re very friendly with other pets and children. It will be my top priority to make sure I keep your fur baby safe from any dangerous behavior. I will treat your fur babies like they’re my own!
