“Billi provided an exceptional experience caring for my two cats, Mimi and Pin-get, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mimi is my 9-year-old tuxedo cat and is normally very shy around new people, so I was amazed when she immediately felt comfortable with Billi during the meet and greet. That moment alone reassured me that Billi truly has a natural connection with animals. During each drop-in visit, Billi kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which meant so much to me. Seeing Mimi happily sitting on her lap and watching both of my fur babies interacting comfortably with her made my heart smile and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Billi is professional, reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She clearly takes the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Her communication and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I highly recommend Billi. I will absolutely be booking her again for future visits with Mimi and Pin-get.”
“Sabina loved Nicole from the meet and greet! I got lots of pictures from the drop-ins and Nicole was super communicative. I also really appreciated her making sure everything was clean before I got home!”
“Very communicative and sent lots of photos! Was able to come on pretty short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks so much again! I highly recommend!”
“I am super blessed that I found Dawn! She takes care of my cat in the best way possible and also gives her medicine that my cat is on! Dawn is the best!”
“Estefania has taken care of our cats twice now and we are so thankful to her for her loving care and attention. She is always responsive and gives us great peace of mind while we are away. Thank you so much”
“Mara was absolutely awesome! Very communicative and friendly! My dog is shy & she was comfortable with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Mara again!”
“Briana has been great with my mini Australian Shepherd puppy. Very reliable, she gives updates throughout the visit and follows any instructions I give her. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs and several cats since a young age! I was even a pet sitter throughout college. I’m here to lend a helping hand to make you and your fur baby as comfortable and happy as possible. I’m currently working a full-time job from 8-5. However, I am available Wednesday mornings before 9. I am also available every weekday after 6 and have COMPLETE availability on the weekends! I will treat your pets as my own. I will make sure to adhere to their schedule to ensure that their daily routine is maintained.
“I moved to the area recently and was looking for a new kitty sitter. Marianne is phenomenal. I will definitely be using Marianne going forward. She wrote thorough notes on how my kitties were doing for each visit along with pictures and videos. I have full trust in Marianne taking care of my kitties and respecting my home. She even took out our recycling for us. You can tell she is an animal lover and so thoughtful.”
“Having a 16 year old blind and deaf dog we are reluctant to go away at all! Having a three week trip planned made us very nervous! Finding Robin has been a blessing. She provided such TLC that Oscar didn’t miss a beat!! Robin goes above and beyond and gives her heart to her four legged buddies! Thank you Robin!!”
“Another awesome job with Creed. She takes pride in making sure your pet is comfortable while you are away. That in itself makes for a stress free trip for the parents.”
“Great experience! It was our first time requesting their service for our elderly dog and cat as our normal pet sitter was unavailable. It was very apparent how much they cared about the pets and would put in extra effort to make them feel safe and comfortable. Our dog was having a rough couple days and Vadim was so patient and caring during every visit. Thank you so much for doing such a great job and making us feel like our pets were in good hands while we were away!”
“Most pet parents can agree it can be challenging to find someone you can trust to take care of your pet/fur baby for you. However, Alyssa was very attentive and did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was away for a week.”
“I was a little nervous at first to use a service but it came recommended by a friend, and then I found Kimmeth. Kimmeth came into my home and treated my two kitties as her own. One of my kitties is a little skittish and overall a mommas boy and Kimmeth was so patient, intuitive and awesome with him, making him comfy while we were away. She made sure they were fed, had water, got treats and divine long rubs, and kept their litter box neat and tidy. She went all the way by making sure the house was secure and even watered my orchids. Kimmeth also has a knack for writing so her daily write ups were so cute and good for a laugh. Best of all, when I got home the kids were all chilled. No ignoring, no attitudes, just happy and chilled. Thank you Kimmeth ? Tiger and Lily adore you.”
“Agustina was fantastic with my cat Butter. She administered eyedrops, pills, and an oral syringe full of liquid supplements that Butter needs to take. She was communicative, responsive, and very eager to learn about the needs of my cat and myself!”

“Jessica accepted a last minute request to check in on my cat daily over the holiday weekend. Leaving your pet is incredibly stressful, but I definitely felt at ease knowing she was there to check in on him. She was great at communicating. Thanks again for coming through on such short notice!”

This was my second time booking Hailey to watch my kitties and she was fantastic again! She’s very reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the pets she watches. She kept me updated and made sure everything was taken care of. I came home and it was like I never even left. I’ll definitely continue booking her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
Estefania was an amazing pet sitter! She took wonderful care of our two cats and treated them as her own. She went above and beyond bringing in our packages, watering our plants and even took out our trash, which we really appreciated. We look forward to working with Estefania and her daughter Agustina in the future, would highly recommend!
I had a great experience with Mafalda for drop-in visits. She was reliable, punctual, and very communicative throughout the entire booking. I received consistent updates and photos after each visit, which really put my mind at ease. Duke was clearly well cared for and comfortable, and all instructions were followed perfectly. It’s obvious that Mafalda genuinely cares about animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would absolutely book her again for drop-ins and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.
Dawn was fantastic!! So easy to communicate with, very friendly and upfront, and absolutely knows what she’s doing. I’ve never seen my cat warm up to a sitter faster than with Dawn - she usually hides the whole time! - I received so many fantastic photos of my girl during her drop in visits. Would absolutely recommend!
Laura minded our two bulldogs while we were away for a long weekend. She was punctual (like clockwork!) and our dogs got spoiled to lots of walks and outdoor time. She kept us informed and when we came back, we found the dogs just fine, they barely missed us! Thank you, Laura!
We’ve had a wonderful experience with Kayla. She is great with our two cats, including our elderly cat who needs medication, and we feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her care. They clearly enjoy her visits and are relaxed and happy when we get home. We especially appreciate the photos and updates she sends—it really gives us peace of mind to know she’s keeping such a close eye on them. We would absolutely recommend her!
