“Elaine kept me informed with great communication and pics every day! My cat was in great hands and I’m sure that she enjoyed Elaine playing with her while I was away! Thank you Elaine!!”
“Lisa was wonderful and I would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet! She asked to do a meet and greet (at no charge) ahead of time which I really appreciated - it was great to be able to explain instructions in person. She arrived on time, sent updates and was an overall pleasure to work with. Will definitely use again!”
“Amanda went above and beyond with my babies. I received pics and videos everyday of them which was always great to see. I'm glad they were in good hands while I was away. Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Gabriela has been exceptional in caring for my beautiful Himalayan cats, Coco and Donatella. She is incredibly caring, intuitive, and attentive to their individual needs, always knowing exactly how to make them feel safe and comfortable. Gabriela is responsible, reliable, and consistently goes above and beyond, all while being genuinely warm and friendly. I have complete peace of mind knowing Coco and Donatella are in such loving and capable hands. I highly recommend her without hesitation.”
“Nalisha was amazing and got to meet me and my dog, Henry, before doing the drop-in visits so she could get a feel for where everything was, what my Henry likes, etc., which did a lot to help me feel comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. She was accommodating of my schedule for drop-in visits and also took super cute pics of Henry. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Great experience! Drue took amazing care of Nitro and kept us updated the whole time. Nitro was happy, well cared for, and comfortable. We’d definitely book again and highly recommend them.”
“I prefer to book with Angelina, especially on longer vacations because she does a great job. She reliable, always shows up, and does a little extra and thinks of small ways to help.”
“Linnea was great! We were gone for two weeks and I could always count on her being at our house at a specific time to look after our two cats. She took excellent care of them. I previously used another sitter from this site and when I would come home one of our cats (who is very loving but also extremely high strung) would be all wound up and "hyper". This time when we came home she was calm and relaxed and ready to snuggle. I will definitely be using Linnea again. She has become my number one choice.”
About: I’ve had pets for the past 27years of my life and can’t imagine my life without them. Pets may only be around for part of our lives but we’re their whole lives and giving them the best happiest one possible is always my goal. I have lots of patience for your stubborn pets and tons of energy for your hyper ones. Have confidence knowing I will fulfill all your pets needs while keeping them safe, clean/tidy, and happy. Currently a stay at home mom of a teen daughter who is going to college soon and needing to save up money for schooling and other expenses. I’m experienced with many things; long walks, higher intensity activities for your bigger pals, training simple commands and potty training, preparing/cooking nutritional meals or simple feedings, some grooming like baths, brushing hair/teeth. I’m also very adamant about safety and good hygiene so I’ll always be making sure your pet and their space is clean, tidy, and most importantly safe.

“Cheryl was amazing caring for our dogs. This was the first time we had left them for more than a short time and she was awesome. Cared so much for our senior frenchie and our chiweenie. Sent tons of pictures and communication on how they were doing. Gave us peace of mind knowing she was dropping in on them. Went above and beyond when they were not eating and getting my girl to take her meds. She is the best!!!!”
“Rachel is an awesome sitter whom my cats really learned to like. We have 3 cats and she cared for them well and communicated to us frequently, as well as send photos. She replies quickly and have not had any issues when we use her. She is trusted and will be our future cat sitters! Recommend to all!”
“Our senior dog was well taken care of and loved the company while we were away. Already rebooked with Jacqueline for our next trip away. It's nice to have somebody you trust taking care of part of your family.”
