“I highly recommend Melanie for your pet care needs! My husband and I went out of town for a week, so Melanie dropped by every day for about half an hour to spend time with our two cats. We’ve never had a pet sitter we let into our house before, so we were a little nervous about the whole thing. But I was beyond happy and reassured after hiring Melanie! She went well above and beyond what I ever could have expected or asked of her! In addition to caring for my babies, she came over for a meet and greet, picked up packages off our porch, swept up kitty litter that made it onto the floor, and took tons of daily pictures of the cats (all things I never asked or expected her to do!). She truly took great care of my babies and I will trust her to come back and watch them again until we’re out of town. I’ve recommended her to all my friends and family because I’ve been so impressed! If you’re unsure about a stranger in your home caring for you pets, I can assure you Melanie is the perfect choice. She’s professional, trustworthy, communicative, and great with animals!”


“Autumn took such good care of our two senior cats and was incredibly respectful of of home. She was quick to respond and left us notes daily about how they were getting on. She followed our instructions to a tee which allowed me to relax and know they were in great hands. Do not hesitate to trust her with the care of your pets. We will absolutely ask her back in the future.”


“Amanda is great with animals. She came daily to feed and play with the cats. They loved her and were not stressed out when we got home. I would highly recommend Amanda and Gregory!”

About: Ever since I was a child, I've always loved animals, specifically cats. Something about them just clicked with me. My grandmother used to foster animals in Modesto, California. I helped her out frequently, by keeping the animals company and taking care of their needs. Now that she's retired, I wanna continue to be around animals as much as possible without her help. I work part time, so I have a lot of time available. My schedule is very flexible, and I work best in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently customizing my home into an environment where a cat could be comfortable. I'd say the essentials for are a happy kitty are wet food packed with protein, a clean litterbox, places to scratch, and lots of personal space. A happy dog is one that has outlets for their energy. I can stop by and feed your cat, clean it's litterbox, and play. I can also come over for a few days, making sure your feline friend is supervised while you're away. I love to play with cats, I'd never turn down a play session, and I'm also a big cuddler. What matters most to me is that your cat feels safe.

About: Hi! My name is Beau and I worked for a 1 year with a 24 year old established dog walking and care service. With my time at the company I walked between 7-10 dogs/day as well as puppy and dog sat for clients in their apartments and brownstones overnight (sometimes for multiple nights). I’m good with dogs and love all shapes and sizes. I have spent also the last 10 years dog sitting and walking friend’s dogs. I don’t own one myself so having the opportunity to play with someone else’s beloved pup is very fulfilling for me. I work remotely so I’m very flexible for pet sits. I’m able to travel to you and your pet, and will stay near them if I am sitting. I will keep a close eye if they’re outside, or on a leash if in public. I will make sure they use the bathroom, and eat properly. You can rest assured your pet will be well taken care of.
