“Grace did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away. She was quick to update and respond with communication and I returned to a happy and healthy cat 😊 Thank you Grace!”
“Athena took fantastic care of our 5 cats (2 needing daily medication to include injection and pills). She made sure to verify which medication was whos and ensured she had all the information she would need to be able to properly check in on them. She gave awesome checkin reports with pictures and even took care of basic things for us without even being asked. Overall 10/10 very professional, highly recommend.”
“Jazmin was very good with our diabetic cat. She was here at the feeding times we set. She also was able to help us out at the last minute. We will definitely use her again.”
“Allysha did an absolutely wonderful job. If you are looking for someone to care for your animal that they are their own allysha is that person, will definitely be booking again when we need someone to check in on Marco.”
“Jessica is a big help with our beagle and 2 cats. My beagle loves going on walks with her. She does a great job tidying the cats’ litter box and filling their food and water. We are grateful for her assistance!”
“Chelsea took exceptional care of our cats while we were away. She communicated clearly and sent so many photos for us to see! Our kids missed the cats so much and being able to see them and know they were being loved meant the world to them. Our cats are very shy, but Chelsey was able to befriend them and give them some much needed snuggles. She not only followed the instructions we left, but she also went above and beyond to make sure we came home to a clean and nice smelling house. I will definitely check Chelsey's availability the next time we go away, as well as reccomend this app and Chelsey to anyone who is in need of pet sitting in the area. We are so impressed, thank you!!!!”
About: I've had cats and dogs since I was a baby. I've been responsible for animal care since I was 8, starting with my little baby kitty Angel. I can teach dogs basic manners and I'm happy to help seniors up and down the stairs. I have small hands perfect for administering medications and the skills a patience for nail trims. I hope to get pet CPR certified soon and have a background in human medicine, which, while not a direct translation, definitely helps with understanding the basics. I also have some experience with fish and snake care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry babies! I work full time but my shifts vary. The next couple of months I will be working a lot of night shifts so I'm happy to take in clients in the early morning or evening. I'm available for boarding most weekends. Any animal in my home will be treated like family. Special instructions will be followed to the T. Dogs will have plenty of time to play in the yard if they so wish but won't be left outside unsupervised. Snuggle and play time and exercise are important to me so each dog gets two walks a day unless health problems prevent them from doing so, and floor snuggle time at the end of the day. If you have special requests, I am happy to help!
“Such a great help! I enjoy how thorough and thoughtful you were with my guinea pigs! Glad you were able to help out and will definitely follow up next time I'm need of a pet sitter.”
“Amy is awesome! She’s always willing to come and help me out by letting May have a potty break while I’m working late hours. She’s is so good with May and has been super helpful each time she comes and always makes sure she has food, water, and plays with her! I will continue to trust her with May in the future.”
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family since I was a freshman in high school. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I currently have two pups of my own—a playful Frenchie and an energetic Pit Bull—so I’m no stranger to managing different temperaments and energy levels. Whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or just providing love and comfort, I treat every pet like family. Although I work full time during the week, pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy it. I’m available on weekends from early morning to late night, and I can also do Friday evenings. I make sure to plan my schedule so your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. When providing drop-in visits or walks, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for in their own environment. I stick to their regular routine—whether that’s feeding, fresh water, playtime, or just some comforting company. For walks, I ensure they get plenty of exercise and attention, and I always prioritize safety and their unique needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure you stay updated with how they’re doing.
About: I am 24 years old and a recent graduate at Johnson and Wales University. I have been taking care of my dog India for the past 6 years I even trained her on my own. I even took her to college with me for 4 years. I also took care of a Scottish terrier when we had her when I was in high school. I currently help take care of and train my grandparents schnauzers. I have taken my dog on many walks and bath her weekly. I have experience taking care of a cat as well as horses! I am adept at dealing with dogs with separation anxiety, PTSD, and big personalities. I currently work full time and my schedule varies based on the week and holidays. I typically have off Tuesday, Sundays so I will be available all day those days. I am also usually off by 3 at work. I have a fenced in backyard but due to my dog India being so small we typically keep her on a leash when taking her outside. For my 2 lab puppies they just wander the backyard. I do request a meet and greet for most bookings for safety reasons for new clients. At your home I will ensure all instructions are followed based on the needs of your pets!

Grace was amazing! Our previous sitter dropped out last minute, Grace was available and responsive and we were able to get everything sorted 2 days before we left. She even got our shyest cat out and about and made sure to send plenty of action shots of the cats playing!
