Kyle was an excellent choice, to care for our energetic puppy who needed more supervision. He was communicative with us, while away and also interactive with our pup, keeping him busy and safe. I will definitely rebook with Kyle, when needed next.

Julie was wonderful with all 4 of my cats! They absolutely loved her! Two of my cats aren’t always super excited to meet new people but they both took to Julie immediately which told me I had made the exact right choice! Julie was attentive and loving to my fur babies and I would not hesitate to ask her to take care of them again. ❤️

About: I have always worked with animals ever since I was little. I grew up around a farm and took care of various small pets. I also have experience cat sitting and dog sitting from some friends. I have my own elderly dog who needs accommodations, so I’m ready for any task needed! I go to college mostly online, but I do have a class or two in person some days. I’m able to drop in whenever because I’ll be very much free. I can give your pet some comfort and take care of them while you’re gone! I love to go on walks and play with any furry friend!

Noelle had done a beautiful job caring for our puppy while we’re away at work. Daisy likes her so much, and when we come home after Noelle has visited, she seems to have extra pep in her step. Thrilled to have found her. Thank you so much for your care!

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and bring a calm, attentive, and personalized approach to every animal I watch. I understand that each pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to adjust my care to fit their needs—whether that means playful energy, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats, including senior pets and those who may need medication, and I’m very mindful about keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. I also have experience in multi-pet households, so I’m comfortable managing different temperaments while making sure every pet feels secure and cared for. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine, and I’m home most of the week to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care. I keep a consistent schedule with potty breaks, meals, playtime, and rest, making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I’m only away briefly once a week, and I always plan around that to make sure pets are still well taken care of. I truly enjoy being present with them, creating a calm, loving environment where they can feel relaxed, safe, and happy. I create a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at ease. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality, making sure to follow all care instructions and keep things as consistent as possible for them. In my home, pets are always supervised, and I take care with introductions and space to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m very mindful of safety, from secure spaces to feeding routines and behavior monitoring. My goal is to provide a calm, stress-free environment where pets feel safe, respected, and truly cared for.

About: For as long as I can remember I have always lived a life surrounded by animals of all kinds. Professionally speaking I am a Veterinary Technician/Assistant at an all cat shelter as well as a part time Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital. It felt only natural to fall into a career of animal care. I come vetted with tons of different experience- be it handling chickens, kissing cats, walking dogs or hanging out with your cold blooded friends. All of my pets are rescues and with that comes an array of experience with all temperaments and needs. I work full time and would best be able to accommodate visits and walks around my current work schedule. Currently my availability is: Sunday *early AM* and *anytime after 4-5pm* Monday-Thursday *early AM* and *anytime after 7:30-8:30pm* Friday-Saturday *anytime* Between my partner and I we share three dogs and three cats together. We often joke how no one would ever know we have animals in our home outside of their barking because nothing touches the floor in this house without being scooped up. I am very seasoned in efficiently caring for all types of animals and hope to put you at ease that your pets AND your space will be cared for and respected 🤍

Jessica did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs. One of the dogs being nervous. She took them on walks, fed them their meals and treats. I left them in her care with 100 % confidence and was very pleased when I returned home to see the pups happy and well. Jessica is a reliable and kind person.

Julie was absolutely wonderful with our cats, Ronnie and Sushi. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with cats. While we were away, she kept us updated and gave us real peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Ronnie and Sushi can be a bit particular, and Julie handled them with patience and care. When we got home, they were relaxed, happy, and clearly comfortable with her. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with your pets and your home. We would 100% recommend Julie and will definitely be using her again.

Julie is an absolute treasure. She treated our kitties as if they were her own fur babies. When we came home, our cats looked healthy and happy. I could tell that Julie really spent some great quality time with them. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs a Cat Sitter.
