Anna was excellent. She showed kindness and compassion toward my cat, going the extra mile to take care of him on days he showed anxiety. Will definitely rehire!

I am always worried when I move to a new area and need to find a sitter. But, I found Jade and she takes wonderful care of my 2 cats. It worked so well, that I invited her back for more stays with my fur babies.

About: I’ve dog sat for many family friends since I was 16 and have had no complaints! I’ve also raised my own miniature dachshund since she was a baby! I’m currently a senior in high school and working part time at skateland. However, I will always prioritize pet care. I go to school at 8:40 and leave at 2:35 so I can take care of animals before and after school. I work in the evening and make sure I leave in time to take care of the pets. In my home, I bathe the dogs at least once every two weeks. More if they get dirty. My dogs get fed a rice mixture every day at 5 pm. I don’t keep them outside for more than 5 minutes if it’s not warm. I would apply all of this to anyone else’s pet!

Fantastic as always! Laura is absolutely amazing with our cat Axel and she has earned our trust in our home overnight cat sitting for us. She is also a wonderful human overall and pays so much attention to detail when caring for your pets. 10/10 as always. She is transparent, accountable and compassionate.

Honestly if I could give her 6 stars, I would. She was SO sweet, so caring and sent me updates with pictures and videos daily and nightly. My pup Archie stayed with Chloe at her home while I was out of town AND she also stopped by my house to care for my cat Siggy. She had no problem with doing a "meet & greet before hand" so I could meet her, see her house, and see how our dogs interacted together since she has some pups too (who both were adorable and sweet btw) - I recently moved here from out to state & was sooo anxious about leaving my pets with a stranger, but as soon as I met Chloe I was instantly calmed. Very kind, very warm, and Archie was comfortable right away, I knew it was a good fit. Archie loved playing with his new friends and even got a nail trim (truly a battle) - when I picked him up I think he was actually more disappointed that he had to leave! LOL. Will 100% use her again. Highly recommend.

Lisa was a fabulous caregiver for my cat, Rizzo! She is a loving and caring person and went above and beyond the perimeters of our engagement and spent extra time with him, bought him toys, and watched over my house and watered flowers too in my absence. I highly recommend her for any pet care or house sitting or both.

Sarah did an excellent job checking in on my cat while I was on vacation. She met with me beforehand to get to know my pet's needs and sent me update pictures of him while I was gone. It made my trip so much more enjoyable knowing I had a reliable person checking in on him and I will definitely use Sarah again in the future.

This was our first time using Kayla as we normally board our dogs, but our go to and backup boarder we’re both full and due to a previous instance I don’t use any other boarders. Kayla did awesome! She communicated throughout her visits, kept us updated and even sent us several photos, where it was obvious our pups were enjoying her being around! We will use Kayla again and I strongly recommend her - you’ll pups will appreciate it.

Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D

Experience: Cats: 17+ years Dogs: 10 years Ferrets: 4 years Reptiles: 3 years There are other various small animals I’ve taken care of sporadically but I’m always willing to learn more about any type of animal!

I treat each, and every animal as one of my own. I am very conscious of how they are doing, and make sure they get the love, and respect they all deserve! Will provide plenty of pets, and playtime with your animals!

About: I have been taken care of animals since I can remember! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals/different breeds and I love it! I have been taking care for friends and family, and I’m just trying to get more out there! I’d cuddle with them, play with them, feed them and give them treats, I take them on walks, I’ve taken some dogs to get groomed, I’ve even given baths before, and I’d do whatever needed to be done! I’ve stayed over night with animals before while the owners were out of town and I love being with new animals! I’ve also had to take care of some animals that needed insulin and other medications! I used to have a senior dog that I would have to help get up and carry outside when he needed to go! I love taking care of any animals and have so much fun doing it! I am currently working part time so I’d definitely have time to play with the animals and take them out as many times as needed! I work morning shifts so I’m free in the afternoon! I’m always taking care of my animals as well so I’m definitely used to it! My kitties have a cat tree they love and lots of toys we play with! I can do whatever is needed to take care of them! I can create your dog if necessary!

Ruby was very reliable with dropping in 2x daily to give an insulin injection to our diabetic senior cat and daily care for our two younger cats. In addition, she cleaned litter, played with the kitties, brought in mail and sent pictures and a report twice daily. We came home after nine days away to three happy cats who were well cared for. We are so pleased with Ruby’s pet sitting services.
