“Will ABSOLUTELY be booking with Rebecca again! She was so amazing with my cat, Helena. Sent so many pictures and videos, and was so communicative, especially with my anxiety about leaving my girl. Would absolutely recommend her 🖤”
“Tess is conscientious and kind. I love the consistency of her cat sitting for my baby girl when I travel. I would definitely recommend booking with Tess; she's a great cat sitter! Irene”
About: I’m a former vet tech who grew up with dogs, and have experience with most breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I would love to help take care of your pup while you are away! I currently have a hybrid work schedule, so my hours are pretty flexible most days of the week. Mornings and evenings are preferable, but if you need middle of the day care, I can try to organize that. In your home, I’ll try to keep everything as calm and routine as possible for your pet, and give them all the attention and cuddles!
“I'd definitely rebook and recommend Mckenna. My dogs immediately liked her. She's responsive, easy to communicate with, timely, and has a kind energy. Couldn't ask for more.”
About: Although I don't currently have any pets of my own, I am very much an animal person and would love to watch your pets! I grew up with 3 dogs (a Golden Retriever when I was younger and two mutts when I was in high school) and 2 cats. I've also pet-sat for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a kid-- watching puppies, big dogs, small dogs, and cats. I've also attended a few dog training and behavior courses. I've attended various dog training and behavior courses I work from home (7 AM to 3 PM) Monday to Friday so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet-sitting! If overnight sitting for you, I can let your dogs out multiple times a day (and hang out with your dogs/cats) and can be more hands-on (walks/play time) after 3 PM! I am also in SLC most weekends! I love exercise and am happy to offer slow-paced or fast-paced walks with your dog(s). I would frequently dog-walk between classes in college and loved the experience! During home visits, I'm happy to work from your home and chill with your dogs/cats, let your dog out throughout the workday, walk/play with them in the afternoons, and water your plants, etc.!
“Sheila is the best! She is trustworthy and provided peace of mind that our pup was in good hands. We loved all the daily updates and photos from her. Highly recommend using Sheila!”
“Saya was great doing drop ins for my 2 cats while I was out of town for the weekend! She communicated well, followed instructions, and my cats seemed to love her. Highly recommend :)”
“Etiana was super helpful and watched Pepper while I was away for the holidays. She kept Pepper fed and happy and kept the litterboxes clean. I will definitely contact Etiana again if i need another sitter :)”
“Michelle did such a great job taking care of our senior cat! I appreciate that Michelle met us beforehand to get comfortable with our cat and was open to taking care of her while in a cone. Michelle gave very detailed notes of each check in and tons of cute photos! Overall we are super happy with the way Michelle took care of our elderly cat while we were away. Thanks Michelle!”
“She always does an amazing job caring for my pets while I’m gone! It’s nice to have a trustworthy sitter who cares for your pets just as much as you do :)”
“Elena was absolutely incredible. I have an older anxious cat that I never feel at ease leaving when I travel. She took wonderful care of him and I was confident he was in safe hands. She was super prompt responding to lots of overbearing pet mom messages. I got tons of pictures and feedback in his rover card and was never made to feel like a burden for my questions. Will absolutely be looking to book Elena when I travel again! Could not recommend highly enough.”
“Anna gave us reassurance our cat was well cared for while we were out of town for over a week. Enjoyed receiving pictures of each visit. Our cat was much less anxious when we returned home. Would definitely rebook & highly recommend! :D”
“Kaitlyn was SO WONDERFUL with our cat Moosh. She gave incredibly detailed written summaries and always a ton of photos. Her communication was top notch as well. She’s the best!”
“Paige was a fantastic sitter. She checked in on my dog and fish for feedings twice a day and made sure they were in a safe and clean environment every time. Thank you!!!”
“Marissa was responsive and descriptive in her check-in cards every day. There was one incident where one of our cat knocked down a glass bottle and she cleaned it up for us. We didn’t have any issues and would recommend her for any cat sitting needs.”
“Molly took great care of my boy Sam. She was fantastic with communication, and I felt very safe leaving Sam in her care. Thank you so much for all your help, Molly!”
“Morgan did such a wonderful job with my high energy Aussie/border collie. She came over every day for a week while I was away. I really appreciated all of the photos and videos I got each day. Morgan also communicated really well. Couldn’t have asked for better.”
“Andrew was incredibly communicative and truly listened to our needs for our cat. He did an excellent job with the check-in visits and kept us well updated the entire time. We felt very comfortable leaving our cat in his care and would happily book with him again.”
“Emily is fantastic! Our two kitties love her visits and we always come home to them well fed and loved. Lots of play time! Love the consistency, reliability, and communication during our time away. Oh, and the funny pictures of our kitties she always manages to snap :)”

Anna just watched my finicky cats for the first time and they had a great experience with her! She left detailed and thoughtful updates after each visit with cute pictures. I have never felt so comfortable having someone I don't know personally, care for my kitties. Thank you again ❤️
Jenn was absolutely amazing again! She took such great care of my kitty! She was responsive, on time and helped even when I had a last minute flight delay. Jenn also gives such great updates, and cares so much about my kitty’s well being. I came home to a happy and secure kitty, who was well taken care of. I can tell Jenn LOVES cats. 😻 Gave me such peace of mind while I was away, thank you Jenn!
Jaden stopped by twice a day to take care of my old grumpy cat and did an excellent job while I was away. Everything was clean and tidy when I got back, and my cat seemed happy and the space well cared for. He even watered my houseplants, which I really appreciated!
We just wrapped Mina’s third booking with August and I have no notes- as always he was reliable, communicative, patient with our rescue bb and kept her safe. This trip however had some exciting new developments- our little pitty is slow to warm up to people and it was evident in the photos and notes that she has grown to trust August after just three stays! She also showed significantly less anxiety when we returned, giving this helicopter parents much relief. August was also great about following up to make sure we made it home safely, ensuring Mina wouldn’t be without care. As always, he’s been incredible to work with!
Sierra was very communicative and did a great job with all of the instructions we left her. My cats don’t get along very well and she did a good job managing them and making sure they were separated. She also did a great job with administering medicine to my cat that needed it daily. Overall, I am very pleased with the services provided and I would absolutely hire her again!
My Jilly🐈🐈really enjoyed meeting and playing with Breanna. She’s nornally a little shy, but not around Breanna! Bre was right on time to feed and play with Jilly. I didn’t ask her to scoop the litter box, but she did it anyway. I will definitely be booking with her on my next out of town meeting. Thank you Breanna!
Etiana was very sweet, warm, and communicative. I could tell my cat gots lots of loves from her, usually he is very shy with people but warmed up to her very easily. She sent photos on a daily basis with detailed descriptions, it was lovely to have. I would highly highly recommend her! 🥰
Emily is fantastic! Our two kitties love her visits and we always come home to them well fed and loved. Lots of play time! Love the consistency, reliability, and communication during our time away. Oh, and the funny pictures of our kitties she always manages to snap :)
