Like other reviews stated it worked out really well. She was responsible, did exactly what was needed and more. Worked out perfect. Glad I hired her and my cat was noticeably less crazy when I got home.

I can't recommend Ava highly enough as a dog sitter. From the moment I met her, I knew my furry friend was in good hands. Ava exudes warmth and compassion, and she treats every pet as if they were her own. Communication is key when it comes to leaving your beloved pet in someone else's care, and Ava excels in this department. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, giving me peace of mind knowing that my dog was happy and content. What truly sets Ava apart is her genuine love for animals. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, quirks, and routines, ensuring that Stella (my dog) felt comfortable and at ease during her stay. Whether it was going for long walks, playing fetch in the park, or just curling up on the couch for some cuddle time, Ava made sure that my dog received the attention and care she deserved. Reliability is another hallmark of Ava's service. I never once had to worry about her being late or cancelling last minute. She is incredibly professional and organized, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free.

About: I am 30 years old and have always grown up with pets in the home. This includes cats, dogs, reptiles, rabbits, and ducks. Since getting older I have gotten my own (a cat, not a duck) and have gained even more experience and knowledge of the importance of proper animal care. I enjoy spending time with them and learning their personalities and mannerisms and mentally stimulating them as well. I am great with directions and have a keen attention to detail that will allow me to care for your baby with the same love and respect as you would if you were home. That same love and respect goes for your house as well, I know trusting someone with this job is daunting and I want to make your time away from your pet and home as stress free as possible and you know everything is in good hands. I just quit my corporate 9-5 job to travel so I am available anywhere, anytime. I can stay overnight in home, or do daily check ins, walks etc. When house sitting, you can expect respect, communication, and the upmost concern for the safety of your pet and your home. I will spend 24/7 with your animal and make sure all needs are met and they know they are loved and not alone. I will send picture updates as well as multiple text updates throughout the day and make sure you have all of the information of what’s going on at home while you’re away.

Over the summer, I hired Jenna to look after my three cats for multiple weeks. Her attention to detail and care for my pets made her a great pet caregiver. My cats loved her and I appreciated her taking daily photos of my cats for me! I highly recommend her and am planning on hiring her again in the near future. 10/10! Thank you Jenna for taking care of my cats with such love.

Cheryl is a terrific cat sitter. My cats warmed up to her immediately and she spent time playing with them and my finicky male even let her brush him and he loved it. She also left calming music in for them and it was so good to come home to relaxed kitties.

About: My motto is that it’s my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I’m with your pup , I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it’s my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they’re used to at home . I’m a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as can just come second nature for me ! Although I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far reaching than that. I’ve worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally It’s always great to chat with owners about what makes their pup tick ! Finally , I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all

Annie was attentive and went above and beyond for our (2) cats and our outdoor guinea pig! We appreciated her level of care for each pet’s individual needs. Our white cat is incredibly needy and we were nervous about leaving him either alone or with someone new, but we feel confident about having left him with Annie!
