“Hannah does a great job taking care of my cats and is very dependable. They know her already and they are very comfortable with her. I will always ask for her service first when I travel.”
“Jamie is the BEST! She has done about 20-25 drop in sessions with my cat and everything goes so smooth! I can trust her in my house and my cat adores her (and she’s afraid of everyone lol). But even better she brings in all my packages and mail. If I could give her 20 stars I would! Thanks Jamie!”
“Absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and patient with our shy, older cat. Kept us informed and sent photos and detailed updates after each visit. Her care and attention put me at ease while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Kristi and will ask her to visit again when we travel.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember - I got my first pet when I was just two years old, and I've been caring for animals ever since! Over the years, my love for animals grew into a passion I wanted to turn into a career. Since I was nineteen, I've worked in animal hospitals, shelters, and pet boarding facilities, caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether it's a bouncy puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet who needs a little extra TLC, I put my whole heart into making them feel safe, loved, and happy. Caring for animals isn't just something I do, it's truly the heart of my day-to-day life! My schedule revolves around giving my pets (and hopefully yours!) the attention, love, and care they deserve, and I take that responsibility with pride! Whether it's early-morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cherished at every moment. Pet care is my top priority, and I'm always ready to make time for them! When I'm caring for pets in your home, their comfort and safety always comes first! I make sure they get the playtime, exercise, and fresh air they need to stay happy and healthy!! I also take pride in leaving your home exactly as I found it - if not a little cleaner! I'll tidy up after play sessions, clean any messes, and make sure everything is secure before I go. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that feels just as you left it, so you can relax knowing everything is in good hands!
“Tyler cared for our Balinese cat and bearded dragon while we vacationed in Japan for two weeks. I was really worried about leaving the cat for that long, as she can be shy and we adopted her just a few months ago. Tyler is in fact a cat whisperer - as evident by the photos he sent, she adored him. We came home to a happy, heathy cat and lizard. Tyler went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to friends and family. I will definitely use him in the future.”
