“Criss was fantastic and I would absolutely recommend her. One of our kitties was a little more shy than the other but Criss took the time to befriend her and was able to get her to play by the end of our trip. She sent us lots of photos which we enjoyed throughout our trip. I would absolutely rebook with Criss if she’s available next time we need to use Rover!”

“Heidi took excellent care of our cat, plants and home while we were away, and was very flexible with us when our plans were a bit chaotic throughout the weeks. Our cat loves her, and she always gives us plenty of updates so we don't miss him as much. 🥹❤️ Thank you again so much, Heidi!”
“Another stress free trip knowing our bunnies were in Kayley’s caring hands. Kayley is extremely reliable and great about communicating updates and sending photos. Will continue to book house/bunny sitting with her.”
“Julissa followed all instructions, and kept me informed the four days we were away. She took good care of my very shy, older cat. Everything was so tidy when I came home! I will definitely hire Julissa again.”
“Kiansu, Was fantastic! She took great care of our cats and our house while we were gone. Kept us updated with photos and texts throughout her stay. Our cats were unfazed by our absence which tells us Kiansu was very present and caring with our spoiled cats. Yay! She left the house immaculate. She was pleasant to interact with and communication was superb! We would be happy to have her come back.”

“Buffy is awesome, she’s on the ball and makes me feel like my cat is totally taken care of when I’m away. This is my second time booking with her and I’ll be doing it again for my next trip if she’s available!”
“Felix went above and beyond! I’d give 1000 stars ⭐️ if I could. Whiskers is quite shy, but Felix really took the time to play with her / feed her treats to make her more social. He also sends lots of photos and videos that makes us so happy while being away from our cat. Highly recommend!! Will book again”
“My cats immediately loved Xicheng. That says it all. She’s great with animals, and went far and beyond to take great care of my boys while I was away, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”
“Chelsea sent great pictures of my cat! It felt great to see a variety of pics so I had an idea of how she was interacting with the cat. They looked very cozy together, which was heartwarming.”
About: I have been watching other families pets for 5 years. My experience ranges from long term stays to daily walks. I have helped numerous families during this time. I have experienced times when dogs have had medical emergencies and been able to get them the assistance they need, along with taking care of senior dogs that require more assistance and care (pills, baths, massages) Currently available for full time pet care. I am available daily for walks beginning at 9 am. For house sitting, please reach out and we can discuss the dates (I am fairly available at this time) I do have other dog walking clients that I attend to Monday-Friday so I would not be able to stay with your dog all day long. I could be gone for up to 6-8 hours during the day. I have a fenced yard with 2 dogs and have a fair amount of experience with dog safety and care. I would not be able to house dogs at my own home at this time
“Kim is our go to sitter! She was kind enough to watch our kitties on Christmas Day. Our cats were very excited to see her again! She’s great at giving medications, even though our cat Pebble throws a fit when it’s time for her medicine. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Kim!”

I've had cat sitters for about 30 years and Teagan is the absolute best! She was very thorough, followed instructions very well, followed up with me and sent me amazing photos. I cannot recommend her highly enough! Do yourself a favor and stop looking at all the other pet sitters and just book Teagan.
This trip was the longest I have left my pets with a pet-sitter, and Kim gave me total peace of mind in doing so. I knew they would get all the care and attention they needed (which is a lot!) and she always knows what to include in her reports to put my mind at ease. Kim is the best. Plus, my very shy cat ADORES her.
Thien-Nha is absolutely wonderful and I’m so lucky to have found her. She’s reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind. Even my super shy kitty came out of hiding to say hello when Thien-Nha came over. I feel she really goes above and beyond for our pets and that is simply invaluable. Will definitely hire her again for our next trip.
Our experience with Rong was terrific! She cared for our cats for a couple days while we were away. She was prompt, thorough, and communicative. One day it looked like the cats got into a tiff and there was hair tufts all over the hallway. She let us know, sent photos and cleaned up after them. We appreciated her care for our cats and home, as well as the updates and pics that she provided. Thanks so much Rong! We’ll be in touch again!
This was my second time booking with her to look after my two cats, and she was wonderful yet again! She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and provides great updates. It’s such a relief to know my cats are in good hands while I’m away. She has officially become my go-to sitter!
I could not have been happier with Sameena. It was the first time I left my old ladies alone and for a whole two weeks! The care is quite demanding, with diabetes care and other supplementation and medication that older cats need. Sameena did not only bring the knowledge around animal biology and technical handling expertise, but most importantly was very attentive and loving with my cats! I could not have wishesd for a better care for my cats and I am sure to book her again! Highly recommend Sameena to anyone without hesitation!
