Shauna was fantastic! She really set my mind at ease when taking care of Stella while I was away. She was always very prompt and caring. She even took the time to wash out her food bowls so I appreciated that also. I will definitely be asking her if she can pet sit again in the future!

Nicole was an amazing cat sitter to our senior cat Cayenne. He is 17 years old and never had a stranger look after him- she did a great job. Cayenne requires oral medication twice a day and is a picky eater and she handled both things perfectly. You can tell just from talking to her how much love for animals she has. She left very thorough Rover cards at each visit and also texted to check in with photos. It is always stressful to leave on a vacation with an elderly pet but we were able to relax knowing he was with Nicole. We will definitely be using her again!

Laura was great with my two cats! One of my boys needs meds twice a day, and she administered everything perfectly. She was sweet and kind and even gave them a special treat on the last day. Highly recommend and will be calling on Laura again next time we travel!

Sara truly is a cat whisperer. She gained the trust and affection of both our friendly extrovert cat and our scaredy cat who hides from everyone. We felt so much more at ease knowing Sara was caring for our fur babies. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Michiru was great and Cali took to her well! She was very thorough with Cali’s dietary needs and I was thankful that I was able to find her when I needed a cat sitter last minute. If you are looking for a cat sitter, don’t hesitate to book with her because you will not be disappointed!

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life, and dog-sat and cared for many different dogs over the years. I will treat your pup like family. They will feel secure and safe and get a lot of attention and affection. I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule between 8-5. In addition to a great walk, your fur-baby gets cuddles, play time, and loads of love. Your dog will never be left unattended or alone in a yard. In my house, your dog can sleep in the bed if they like (and you OK it). My own dog is a 9 year old trained therapy dog. She is calm, sweet, and gets along with all dogs both big and small, chill or playful. She'll be happy to share her home. I use positive reinforcement only.

We had such a great experience working with Ed who dropped in daily to care for our cat while we were away. He met us and our cat ahead of time and took notes and asked thorough questions regarding caring for our cat. While we were away, he provided daily updates and photos. Highly recommend Ed!

About: I have experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments, from hyper, to aggressive, to calm couch puptatoes and catatoes! I also have some experience helping special needs kitties at a rescue growing up. I’m open to special needs pups too! I also have experience with leopard geckos and jumping spiders! I’m open to any and all animals! I currently have a very good availability since I just got married and moved in with my husband! He is an animal lover too! He won’t be the caretaker, I will he just lives with us and will enjoy your fur babies company :) I will protect them as my own! I do have a dog and 2 cats in my home, so if they aren’t comfortable with staying here I can go to their home to make them feel better! I work on building trust at the animals own timing! Lots of treats if allowed!
