“Elaine provided very thorough updates. Spent quality time with our cat. Seems to be a natural cat whisperer. Would definitely recommend and use Elaine again.”


“Cait is awesome. She gave great detail for her interaction with our cranky old cat. He took to her almost immediately. We felt very good about having our little guy in her care. We will absolutely book again. Thanks, Cait!”


“Diane was so helpful and our cats loved her! She checked in daily and always gave us an update with cute photos. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommended. Thank you!”


“So grateful to have found Hadija to take care of Lily while my partner and I were away! She treated her with the utmost care and even brought her little toys which was so kind of her to do 🥹💖 Our home was spotless and well-taken care of as well. Hadija shared videos and photos frequently between meals/playtime and was very communicative/quick to respond. Was also so nice of her to help bring in some mail/boxes that had arrived while I was away. Lily can’t wait for her to return! ✨ I highly recommend Hadija’s services & will be booking again soon!”


“Cassidy was fantastic! She was great with communication, punctual, and attached lots of photos and videos. Thank you for taking such good care of my bunny. 🐰”


“Maria gives us such peace of mind when she stays with our cats! Lots of communication and a steady stream of photos. I recommend her highly.”


“Lisa was fantastic! She took great care of my Charley. She got him to go out when he is not a fan of leaving the house especially when the weather is not good!”


“Highly recommend! five stars ,very communicative and came promptly”

“Jade was an excellent communicator. She was prompt to all of our pet services. She provided lots of photos which showed or zoo of animals loved her! We highly recommend her.”



“Elizabeth took great care of our two cats while we were away. She stopped by our home to feed and play with them each morning. They were well cared for and it was great to have her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”


“Claire did a good job keeping the cats happy and playful. She spent reasonable amount of time with the cats and followed our specific instructions to keep house in an orderly manner. Thank you!”


“I was impressed with Kim! From day one, the cats bonded with her, which is unusual, especially when meeting someone new. She went above and beyond doing what was asked, including crushing pills, giving them attention if they wanted it and opening the door so they could get some fresh air and sun through the screen. By the third day they were following her around the house. She's light on her feet and very patient with them. To add perspective, when my adult children come home, the cats hide, even though two of the cats grew up with the kids. Before the week was over, I had already booked her for several other times this summer!”



“Tracy is excellent!! She took such good care of our cat Madison while we were on vacation! She came twice a day to feed and check in on her. And she sent us pictures during each visit. Would highly recommend Tracy!! Thank you Tracy!!”

About: Hello and welcome! My name is Chelsea and I have an extensive background in doggy daycare services and volunteer shelter support! My qualifications extend to fur babies of the dog and cat variety. You can count on my calm demeanor translating to animals with anxiety concerns & medication needs. I look forward to speaking with you regarding how I can fufill your caretaking needs! Please see calendar for updates. Afternoons and weekends are my main availability, but I do have some time off where my schedule is more open. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on creating a calm and familiar environment to keep them happy and stress-free. I maintain their regular feeding schedule, ensure fresh water is always available, and take care of any medication needs with careful attention. I love engaging pets with playtime, walks, and plenty of affection—always respecting each pet's unique personality and comfort level. I also keep their living space tidy, clean up litter boxes or backyard areas, and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home until you return.

“Talia did a great job watching my dog and cat. She even helped me at the last minute when I had a delayed flight. Will definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since high school! Was never lucky enough to have one for myself, but that’s what makes petsitting so special for me. I love spending time with animals and I truly value the time spent while petsitting! I have currently been petsitting a 1 yr old Staffy/bully mix since she was just a few months old and I love her! I am a full time lab technician and have flexible hours to watch over your furbabies! I have a full time job that is very flexible with my hours. I work as a lab technician so it has taught me to be detail oriented, punctual, and patient. I am free outside of work and would love to occupy my time, whenever need be, to help someone else who needs help watching their dog or cat! My biggest worry is not letting your furbabies run loose! I always check my surroundings before entering a home and be cautious so that no animal runs out or gets hurt in the process. While taking care of pets it is easy to let them run wild and have fun, but we can also do so without making the home messy! I will treat anyones dog or cat as my own, as well as make sure that I leave a home the way it was when coming in.

About: I've been caring for small pets such as, Hamsters, Guinea-pigs and Fish (from goldfish, etc. to Oscars,etc.) from a very young age. Therein, for example, when I was still a little girl, my friend and neighbor could no longer care for their beloved, hamster, Andy; who did they think of... me ! So, Andy, the hamster was adopted and added to the fold. Next, Cats and Dogs. When my neighbor found a stray cat had given birth in their shed closet, again, who did they call?! I adopted one of the 3 kittens; adopting their sibling from the same liter soon after the first adoptee, was unable to care for it. I began caring for Angel and Geisha, my first two cats. Last but not least, Dogs... Cream was a white Pittie, whose owner, again, became unable to care for her so she lived with me and my 2 year old daughter at the time, and they loved each other dearly. After, finding Cream a permanent home, I had the honor of caring for other dogs for friends and neighbors even the homeless, from which I cared for Lulu, a pittie, living with her owner on the street. However, she received a healthy diet, vet care and patience, training to reverse some of the habits she developed living on the street. Now, although, I've cared for others such as Bamboo, the Pitbull, that seemed to take care of himself, lol and Karma, who needed a foster during the Covid pandemic; I'm entrusted with the care of my Pittie/German-Sheppard Gran-pet baby, Nasir aka Nas, while my daughter's in college. Nice enough, I still get to switch it up and care for the Cats (and small pets) of various friends and neighbors in my community. With that, I try o create a Pet-care Staycation like atmosphere when boarding or Home care while pet-parents are away and a Family like atmosphere for Fosters. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and four legged family members :) Pet care is not only therapeutic, it fits into my schedule perfectly, since I am a semi-retired administrative professional who suffered an untimely stroke at a young age. However. after an almost miraculous recovery, I'd like to move forward in a direction that nurtures my empathetic personality. Therein, leaving the desk behind, affording me with a more active lifestyle, all year round. As to that, my days generally consist of assisting my daughter with her dog, exercise, personal errands and volunteering a few hours a week. Although, I take pet care jobs occasionally, I'd like to "officially"extend my services to do something I love (I believe I'm good at it.) and rewarding because the pets (my clients) always seem to appreciate it. I have a fenced in yard and super friendly and silly, one year old fur gran-baby that would be happy to show a visiting canine "the ropes", lol. I can also crate and/or crate train your dog(s), when necessary. They will always have access to clean water; be walked consistently and fed on time and kept in a clean an organized space, whether at your home or mine. I make sure to follow pet parents care instructions. I send photos or video of fun moments to give insight as to how your pets are doing and cared for. I play, pet and communicate with each pet in their way to build trust, friendship and joy while their pet parents are away. In addition, I have had some dog training in the recent past and will have more dog training in the near future to help me care for our hairy pals compassionately and efficiently. [NOTE to Drop-in Clients: Please understand, Safety is a concern for Everyone; pet care givers, pet parents and pets. I work on a basis of professional Trust between all parties, including the pet party. All I can offer are my Referrals, my Word as a trusted professional and a background check conducted by Rover. I expect the same appropriate professionalism, trustworthiness and mutual respect from those who accept my Services. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.] I look forward to working with you. ;-)
