Laura was absolutely wonderful with my cat Max and I would 100% use her services again. I adopted my cat before the pandemic and was nervous about leaving him alone for a week to travel home. Laura was always on time for visits, sent tons of pictures, and gave great updates which helped relieve my anxiety.

Charlie has been amazing with my dog Oliver. He walks him during the day and is always reliable, attentive, and caring. I can tell Oliver genuinely enjoys his time with him, which gives me peace of mind while I’m busy. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Charlie makes it effortless. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and kind dog walker.

Melanie was amazing! Not only did she come through after a last minute request, but made was incredibly attentive and asked plenty of questions at our meeting to ensure she was giving the best possible care. She sent prompt, detailed updates with each visit, and followed the instructions perfectly! My usually anxious kitty was in great spirits when I got back, so I know he felt comfortable and safe with Melanie’s care! Melanie is a wonderful sitter, and you can rest assured leaving your little one in her care!

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.

First time arranging a sitter for my cat and I was nervous, but I got Christy and she has been amazing and lovely. Cats can be cats and I worried if my girl got overstimulated and took a “stop petting me now” swipe a sitter would be upset, but Christy gets cats! I got updates and photos every visit and she made sure I knew my kitty was doing well. It was such a relief that she genuinely likes my cat! Will definitely be using Christy again!

Kelsy was great and went above & beyond what she needed to do! Everything was clean & tidy, and she even brought in my mail for me. It’s clear she knows how to take care of cats well because Pluto warmed up to her pretty quickly even though she’s quite shy and scared of strangers normally.

Great with guinea pigs! I recently had Catalina do some drop-in visits to check on my guinea pig, and she was fantastic. Guinea pigs are very social animals, so usually when I leave mine alone for very long he's quite grouchy and cold afterward. With Catalina, though, he was super friendly and happy when I came home. She definitely took the time to play with him and talk with him, and I really appreciate it!

Sunita truly went above and beyond taking care of my two cats while I was away. She is extremely reliable, friendly, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. The city experienced a major heatwave part way through my trip and not only did she make sure my cats were comfortable, but she also put my mind at ease by sharing plenty of photos and updates with each visit. I highly recommend booking her for your pet sitting needs—I definitely will again!

About: I've taken care of all types of pets since I was 8. Ranging from 3 month old puppies to 15 year old seniors. Family and friends have relied on me to walk and care for their pets. I am also currently in college pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. I'm currently in college and working part-time but I will have more than enough time to truly care for and walk your pups! I will put great amount of time and energy into each walk. I have 3 dogs which I have cared for, for many years and take on extensive walks 3-4 times a day. I know how to leash-train and can deal with pulling. Dogs tend to trust me quickly because I take time to let them know I’m here to care for them. I make sure my animals and those of others feel all my love.
