“She was prompt and very gentle with Fisher. She fed and even cleaned out his litter box. I'm definitely going to go to Emma to look after Fisher whenever I have to stay late for work”

“Courtney and John were incredible! Our two cats loved them and warmed up to them quickly. They played with them a lot, and they sent super cute pictures after each visit! They did everything we asked, plus vacuumed and did dishes on the last visit! We came home to happy, relaxed cats and a clean house. Couldn’t recommend them more!”

“Aubrey did a wonderful job watching over our cats again while we were away. We have an elderly cat with some simple medications that was well taken care of. All 3 of our cats were loved and played with each visit. We are very happy with Aubrey's services, including updates and cleanups.”
“If I could give Crowe and Taylor a 100 out of 5, I absolutely would! These two went *above and beyond* in every way possible. Just a day before my flight, my senior pup had an emergency vet visit and was prescribed time-sensitive medications. I had to make last-minute changes to the care schedule, and they were not only incredibly understanding, but also immediately adjusted everything without hesitation—which was such a huge relief during an already stressful time. They cared for my dogs with so much love and attention. They followed every instruction to the letter, kept my home spotless, and even cleaned up after my dogs (one of whom had tummy troubles all weekend). I came back to happy pups and a clean home, which says everything about the level of care they provided. Crowe and Taylor are kind, respectful, responsible, and truly passionate about what they do. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to rebook them for future trips. Highly, *highly* recommended!”

About: I really like animals, I am very patient and I have experience taking care of pets of my family, friends and now Rover!! , I have a very flexible schedule, I can do anything the pet owner needs for them. And I have a lot available days, if I am not at home because I work part time as a CNA now , my husband will be there and watch them! We have different schedules and and I am pretty much at home studying online!! Your dogs never would be alone 😊 I can work walking your pets, taking care of them in the client's home, buying and leaving things that the pet needs and any other different service you need we could talk about it.
“Super last minute back out from my neighbor and Laura was awesome! My girl looked so happy in all of the pics, got walked and taken to the park. Got back to me fast and was super communicative about everything. Definitely plan on having her come check in on my girl for the next work trip away”

About: I have a 10 month old Rottweiler and a 2 year old rescued XL bully. They are my pride and joy! I love walking and training them daily:) I currently work full time but I’d love to walk or hang out with any furry friends that need it. I’m open in the mornings until 12! I have a fenced yard and my dogs are always kenneled when we are not home. When we are home we play, go on walks and train whenever possible!
“Megan always goes above and beyond when watching our cranky old cat. She sends us daily pics and updates and goes out of her way to make sure he’s comfortable. We really appreciate her (and so does Tuna the cat)!”

“I’ve booked with them multiple times now, and they’re always amazing. Incredibly caring with my cat and follow all of my instructions perfectly, which gives me so much peace of mind. They’re also very thoughtful and kind with Miko, and it really shows -he genuinely enjoys their visits. I also love the pictures I receive, they make me feel so connected while I’m away. Thank you for keeping him happy!”


About: I will provide your best friend a good time going on walks and getting some exercise done. I’m responsible, I will care and love your best buddy as if they were my own family’s. I don’t own dogs myself but I have been caring for my cats for about 3 years now and I love dogs since I was little, there has always been dogs in my family and I have always loved and care for them as they were my own. I will make sure all your buddy’s individual needs are meet and taken care of while they are with me, I’m really attentive and patient too, I have experience with young pups and I’m not afraid of large dogs. I’m currently working part-time as a paraprofessional from Mon-fri and assisting college classes part-time as well only on Monday’s and Tuesday’s nights, so I can take care or your fur babies on Wed -Fri from 5 to 8pm and weekends during the mornings only from 8-11am. I will love to take care of your fur babies at their own home where they feel the most comfortable and safe in their own environment. I don’t want them feel more anxious or stressed out since they will be missing their parents already. I’m flexible so I can adapt pretty well to their daily routines and provide all the attention they need. My goal is to keep them as happy as possible during this time to make them feel safe and comfortable as they are with you since this is the most important thing for them.
“Jessica is GREAT!!! My cats are a little spicy when it comes to strangers. She was so patient and kind. One of them ended up on her lap giving her cuddles within just a few days! She was also very attentive when one of them threw up, she contacted me immediately. She also sent sooo many picture updates and it made me feel at ease knowing my furr babies had an expert sitter watching out for them. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were safe and sound.”

About: I grew up with dogs since I was about 4! I have a big family with lots of aunts and uncles that rely on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone on trips. I love getting to know pets with all different personalities. I work 8-5 five days a week with rotating days. I go straight back to your home after work and am able to spend the rest of the night with your pets. I have a lunch in the middle of the work day I can check on the pets depending on distance. I am easy to reach outside of sleeping hours and can give any updates needed. I keep a close eye on your pets and keep in touch if anything seems out of the ordinary with them to take the best action.
“This is the second time Jess took care of my dogs while I was away. She fed and cared for them, cleaned up after them, and was understanding of the anxiety they felt while I was away. She was also very understanding when my boyfriend was at the house for an unannounced visit when she arrived for check-in. I don't worry about my dogs as much when Jess is caring for them.”

I’m a returning customer! Elizabeth is amazing. So quick to reply she even accepted my last minute booking within an hour. I really appreciate the care she gives my cats (even when they’re a bit difficult sometimes). I feel really comfortable letting her do her job and don’t feel the need to supervise at all. I will re-book with her 100% ♥️

We couldn’t have asked for better pet sitters! While we were on vacation, they took amazing care of our two dogs and cat, sending us lots of pictures every visit and keeping us updated daily so we always knew how everyone was doing. They went above and beyond, even vacuuming up pet messes and making sure our home stayed tidy. Knowing our pets were in such loving, capable hands gave us complete peace of mind the whole time we were away. We can’t thank them enough and would trust them anytime to watch our pets. Highly recommend!
