“Erin has been great with our kitties Zoey and Tango. She always shows up when she's supposed to and keeps us updated. The kitties really like her too! I would highly recommend her 😊”
About: I have given dogs medicine and have experience with taking extra care of old dogs and puppies whose energy is off the roof. I have one huge dog so I’m also not afraid of pit bulls or mastiff’s and am able to fulfill any requests you have. I have just started summer and go to unm as a art student so I am constantly having free time especially during the summer as my only plans are on Tuesday for counseling and Sunday’s for church. So I have a completely free week Everytime I go to a house I make sure to clean up after myself and to clean up extra just so when you come back it’s even cleaner than you lef!
“Crystal is the best pet sitter ever. My cats adore her. She was able to give my cat her pills twice a day without any problems. She was very professional in our communication. I appreciate how reliable Crystal is. I knew my cats were in good hands while I was away which gave me peace of mind. Crystal kept me updated the entire time.”
About: My flexibility, dedication and reasonable pricing. I am very reliable in the workplace, And I am confident that could translate to doing this kind of work. For 14 years, I had a very high maintenance cat, she had several medical conditions including an allergy to fish, pancreatitis and bladder/kidney stones. At one point, she became ill and required tube feeding for a couple of weeks while she recovered, including administering medications, liquid and pill form. If need be, I could go in the morning before work, at lunch time, or in the evening after work. I would be available anytime on the weekends. I'm pretty open to what is needed. Contact me if you have any questions. I no longer have a pet at home, and that is part of what makes this special, as it would give me time to spend with animals again.
“Literally had a worry free vacation knowing that Ludo was well taken care off. Brandi sent us pics and updates daily. Will definitely have her watch our pets again!”
“"Kat" B. provided an incredible experience when she took care of my two cats and the house. The cats loved spending time with her, and she followed all the instructions and did extra tasks without being asked. The "Kat" has the special animal magic due to her knowledge and experiences with a diverse population of animals!. I would not hesitate to contact her to take care of your pets. You will be happy with what she can provide for your most important family members. Thank you for all you did Kat, and I look forward to seeing you again.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.
“Jocelynn is the sweetest and always provides the best care for our 9 year old 105 lb German Shepherd/Pit Bull rescue. She is reliable and consistent and follows care instructions perfectly. I highly recommend her!”
“Natalie was great with our medically complex cat! She took great care of all of our cats but made sure our epileptic cat got all his meds as needed. She always made sure to check on our hidey cat too. Will be rebooking her!”
“Ginger was great to work with and took wonderful care of our two cats! She was prompt at sending photos and updating us about how our cats were during her visits. Their space was kept clean and managed by Ginger as well. Looking forward to working with her again!”
About: I have a soft spot for all animals and treat all pets as if they were my own. As someone who grew up around many types of animals since I was a kid, I know how much they mean to us. I make sure they are taken care of and loved! I’m available Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays all day! If other weekdays are needed, i’m available but only for check ins, as I work those days. I do not take pets in my home as I have other animals in the house. I am happy to provide care at the clients home. I do walks, play time, dog parks, etc!

“Lucy stopped by once a day, gave my cats snacks, and love. She sent regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. When I got home, everything was in order and the cats seemed happy and cared for. I’d recommend Lucy and would book again!”
“Cindy was amazing with our Bella! We've never seen her take to a sitter so quickly. She was very reliable and thoughtful of our home. We'll definitely be keeping her in mind for the future.”
“Satara did an awesome job watching my cats. She kept me informed of when she’d be over to take care of them. One of the cats threw up in the kitchen and she kindly cleaned it up. I greatly appreciate Satara’s service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”

Crystal was absolutely fabulous! Our cat Maxine usually is never seen by cat sitters, but that changed with Crystal. Maxine came out to eat treats, play with her wand toy, and even pose for pictures. Crystal was great at communicating with us. We recommend her highly.

Ceara unfortunately stepped into a lousy situation when she agreed to sit for our 3 cats. We had just had one die from illness and another was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. While the cat had antibiotics on board, she was still not urinating like a healthy cat. The cat is also afraid and anxious, so it was difficult to find her for a picture. We were worried sick, so Ceara asked if she should go back until she found the cat. It was late, so we told her to go next day. She did track down the cat who was obviously alive and scared, but we could at least relax for the duration of our stay away.
