“I would have left more than 5 stars if I could. Kayla is a wonderful human being before bein g a great pet sitter. She pet sitted our cat during our long trip overseas. She exceeded expectations. She truly cared for us and our cat. Kayla went above and beyond in every possible way, keeping us updated regularly, being attentive to every detail, and most importantly, showing so much love and care for our furry friend. Our pet clearly felt safe and happy, and we came home to a calm and well cared for companion. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”
“Emma was a fantastic choice to house sit and watch our two cats. She regularly sent updates, followed our instructions, and was really easy to communicate with! We loved having her stay with our kitties, we had huge peace of mind while we were away for the weekend. We absolutely recommend her!!”
About: I have worked with dogs since elementary school, when I started a dog walking business in my neighborhood to pay for summer camp. Friends, family members, and neighbors, have relied on me to do tasks as simple as stop in and feed their pets, to staying with their furry friends for extended periods of time. I have also grown up with Great Danes so I know how to handle extra large dogs! I am a college student who is off for summer break, so my schedule is completely open to care for your pets, whether thats a walk a few times a week or staying over at the house for a period of time. I don't offer boarding services since I rent the space I am living in and it does not allow pets. However, when it comes to services provided in the home of the pet, I will follow any directions that are given to me to my greatest ability!
“Emily was wonderful and did everything we asked. Our needy kitty was taken care of, I'm sure. Emily did a great job at confirming what our communication style was and then following through. We'd recommend & will happily request her again.”
“Lindsey was spot-on each visit and made us happy to see all the photos from each trip. She communicated with details and helped us modify our dates. Thanks for letting us book last minute and for being so sweet to our kitties!”
“Kati went above and beyond in taking care of our two kitties! She was extremely communicative, helpful, and really went above what we expected from a pet sitter. When one of the nights we were gone was much colder than expected, Kati drove back to our house to turn the heat on for our cats so that they would be comfortable. We came home to a clean house and happy cats. We'll definitely be booking Kati again, if she's available when we next go out of town. A+ service!”
“Imani was caring, professional, and overall fantastic. I would highly recommend her and hope to hire her again for future care needs. Thank you for helping our animals while we were away!”
About: I have grown up taking care of my pets and others for family and friends! I have grown up in agriculture, and been exposed to many different animal types like traditional farm animals, amphibians, rodents, and of course—cats and dogs. I am very easy going and any needs that your pet requires, I will accommodate! I am a graduate student, so I am more flexible than most! My schedule is variable from day to day, and I will likely be able to accommodate all of your pets needs while you are away! I am also available during the summer months! I currently live in an apartment style home with a cat. Growing up, we had a yard and we would let the animals out to play with them. I’m comfortable in neighborhood environments as well where a leash and harness are required. I love playing with the animals, giving them an extra affection rather than just the basic needs of food, water, and bathroom breaks. You will not be disappointed!
“Maya was great! First time rover for me and she communicated well and always kept me up to date with pictures of their time together. She even was so kind to leave a nice bag of my dogs favorite treats as well as a whole pack of poop bags as a bonus! It was awesome!”
“This was our 2nd time having Emily cat sit for us. She took excellent care of our two cats for 2 weeks over the Christmas holidays while we were on vacation. I could not ask for a better cat sitter! Emily is super responsive and both cats (even my super shy and skittish cat) were very happy during and after their stay. I would highly recommend Emily as a cat sitter for anyone and we will definitely continue to bring our cats to her.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and taking care of them just comes naturally to me.

I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and a lot of belly rubs. I pay close attention to their behavior and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

Ethan K.
“Ethan is great with animals and genuinely loves being around them. Before he left for college, he helped take care of both my dogs and cat over the years, feeding them, playing with them, taking the dogs for walks (and even the cat in a cat backpack!), and cleaning up after them. He’s super responsible and has even pet-sat at my house a few times when I was away. He’s also helped out with my elderly father’s dog when needed and used to volunteer at a cat shelter in Seattle, picking up rescue cats and kittens from the airport and getting them safely to the shelter. Even now, he’s the kind of person who leaves food out for the neighborhood feral cats and makes sure they have a warm spot when it’s cold out and a cool spot when it’s hot. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly cares about animals, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ethan.”
