“Heather was amazing with our two cats! We had very specific instructions since our cats were separated while we were away, and she did a wonderful job making sure they were fed, safe, and doing okay. She was very thorough and extremely helpful, responsive, and all around a great cat sitter! We would love to have her cat sit anytime we are away in the future. Thanks Heather!”
“Excellent communication and very diligent in her care of the pets and home. She was excellent and so responsive and responsible. Pets seemed happy when I returned and house was in order. Highly recommend”
“Katrina was wonderful with my cat when I was out of town for over a week. During that time the a/c went and she alerted me and stayed while the repairman fixed it. I will definitely be having Katrina take care of my cat in the future.”
“Anne was a great sitter for our pet kitten. She communicated well and left detailed reports with plenty of pictures. She played with him and made sure he was well taken care of. I will definitely be utilizing her again for our next trip.”
“Nina was extremely caring and friendly with my cat Siwon and a pleasure to communicate with as she was professional and prompt with responses. I felt very reassured knowing that she was our cat sitter while we were on vacation for two weeks. Thanks Nina!”
“Kassidy was an absolute dream to book with! She helped my husband and me out when we went away for our wedding. She took great care of our three cats and made sure they were well taken care of. All three of them loved her and were super friendly anytime she came by. Kassidy paid attention to detail from the note we left her. 100% we would book her again 😊”
“Jill was such an incredible cat sitter! She watched our two cats over the course of three days, and sent regular updates and lots of pictures. From the photos, I could tell that they were being very well looked after and getting lots of play time. Thank you, Jill, for taking such great care of our pets!”
About: I grew up in a cat-loving household and currently have a 10 year old cat of my own, so I understand the needs of both kittens and more senior kitties. I have been a cat sitter for friends and family for two years now and I am experienced with feeding routines, playtime, and litter care. I respect each cat’s unique personality and will be patient and friendly to make sure your cat feels comfortable and safe while you are away. :) I am currently a graduate student at Princeton. Therefore, I am available in the area year round and my availability on the weekdays is after 5 pm while weekends I am flexible. I will respect your cats and your home while I perform my drop in visits, making sure that your cats are well cared for while you are away.
“It was a pleasure having Veerja as a cat sitter. They went above and beyond for our cat, Reese. She updated us on her visit multiple times with pictures and detailed summaries. She truly cares for your pet as if they are her own. 🩷”
About: I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a longtime pet owner myself, I’m attentive to routines, behavior changes, and safety, and I focus on keeping pets comfortable, calm, and well cared for in a stress-free environment. I currently work a hybrid schedule and return to the office a few days each week. I plan pet care around my work hours and am available for visits after work on office days, with more flexibility on remote days. I always make sure visits are reliable, calm, and never rushed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while caring for them in their own home. I follow instructions closely, respect routines and boundaries, and maintain a clean, calm environment. I’m careful with doors, food, and litter areas, and I always prioritize safety, close observation, and clear communication with owners.
“Melanie was an exceptional sitter for our outdoor cats. She was extremely communicative. She even noticed a burst pipe that was flooding into our basement. We wouldn’t have noticed it for weeks if it hadn’t been for her and we were able to send people to resolve the issue almost immediately. Thank you so much for your attention to our kitties and our home while we were away!”
“Kelly watched my cats over Christmas, and she was fantastic: text and photo updates every time she checked on them, brought over toys to keep them from getting lonely, kept everything neat and tidy while I was away. Just all around wonderful. I'd recommend her highly.”
“I feel so secure in my travels when I know Boryanna is with my Oreo. Oreo loves when she comes to feed her and play with her and I get great pictures throughout the visits! If you choose Boryanna you will never be disappointed!”
“Elizabeth is reliable and always sends photos of my cat when she stops by while I’m away. She is flexible and follows the instructions I leave. I have booked her multiple times now and will continue to do so! ☺️”
“So happy to work with Ella! She took great care of Bao and made him feel safe and comfortable. I felt a lot better traveling when I knew he was happy and had someone to play with.”
“We are so thankful to Cami for looking in on our Frisco kitty while we were away. She sent a photo and an update at the end of each visit, and our cat was very happy upon our return. We will definitely consider Cami’s services again in the future.”

Anne was so wonderful and thorough with all of our instructions and with the cats, and she really goes above and beyond! She does an amazing job and cares for the cats as if they were her own. We’re so glad to have found her to care for our kitties while we are away. Thanks so much Anne!
Heather did an incredible job taking care of our cats. She was responsible and communicative. Our travel coincided with the recent blizzard; she adjusted her plans to visit before the storm hit and offered to visit again if we could not make it back in time. Needless to say, we were very happy with the care she provided.
