“Evelyn was AMAZING during my 2 week trip. My cats are very skittish, and they quickly warmed up to her. All food, water, and litter was well handled and I really appreciated the communication. Lots of pics were provided, which were wonderful since I was missing my kitties. I'll be rebooking Evelyn for all of my future trips with her since my cats felt comfortable with her, and so did I.”

About: I've had dogs since I was born and they're make life so special. Your pet will be well taken care of and loved just like it was my own. I have lots of free time to spend with your animals and make sure they have so much fun and love. I'm excited to meet them and spend time with your fluffy friends! I will make sure to understand the specific care and requirements you have for your pets to make sure they're happy and comfortable with little change in their routine.
About: I worked as a veterinarian for the past 5 years in Belarus. In April, I moved to the U.S. and am currently improving my English to get my diploma certified. I adore dogs—they make me happy, and I already miss interacting with them so much! I can walk your pets, play with them, feed them, and provide at-home treatments/medical care as prescribed by your veterinarian. I offer flexible pet care at your convenience — morning, afternoon, evening or night (advance notice required) . Services include walks, playtime and vet-approved treatments. I easily connect with dogs and cats of all temperaments. With patience and a gentle approach, I earn their trust and friendship, always prioritizing animal-friendly care.
“Ashley was great. Our senior cat is very shy and hides from everyone. She was very understanding about his personality and made sure he was eating and had plenty of treats even though he wasn’t very social. We felt very comfortable with him in her care.”
“As usual everything was fantastic. Romana does a fabulous job caring for my cats!”
“Lauriel was so great with the animals and I would definitely book her again. Highly recommend her services.”
About: I’m the designated pet sitter in my family and family friends. I’m able to watch and take care of both dogs and cats. I respect your pets time to gain their trust as well as monitoring their body language and behavior to foresee and issues they may have. I’m able to swing by for potty breaks and brief socialization during the day. After 3pm I’m able to spend time with the pets fully. Depending on what day of the week will impact how long I’m able to care for your pet. For both dogs and cats the treatment is different. I’m able to watch body language and respect your pets time so they can adjust to having a new person touch and take care of them.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs for as long as I can remember; our pets have always been treated like family. I come from a big household where caring for animals is second nature. Over the years, I’ve helped raise and care for many different breeds within my family, friends, and colleagues—cats and dogs—from energetic to shy; big and small! I genuinely love being around all types of pups/cats, and always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I currently have no set schedule, I will have a lot of time to take care of your fur babies. Being a morning gym-goer, my current availability will be after 7:30AM to 12:00AM for dog walking/drop-ins. I go back to school (local) starting August 18th (Monday - Thursday). Please keep in mind my schedule is subject to change** When caring for dogs in my home or a client’s, I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment. Through caring for my own dogs, dog sitting for family, and currently helping care for an adopted pitbull with my parents, I’ve gained experience in playtime, exercise routines, and giving each dog the individual attention they need. I’m comfortable following detailed dietary, supplemental, and medicinal instructions, and I always make sure each dog feels loved and cared for.

He truly spoiled them, and we’re so grateful for the love and care he gave our fur babies. Thank you so much, Christian!”

10/10 as always! We have used Doreen before and highly recommend her. She is extremely prompt with replies and does a great job with our boys. :)
Evelyn was outstanding with our 4 fur babies! She was also great with sending pics from every visit and communicating with us while we were out of town.
Mia is a real pro. Our cat Puma, who is normally a little shy around strangers, bonded with her immediately. She sent me detailed photo and video updates every time she went to our house, and took initiative when Puma was experiencing some digestive issues by bringing him probiotics and other supplements. Knowing that Puma was in good hands gave me the peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away from home.
Mya is so wonderful and is my go-to sitter for my elderly cat! I had so many issues with dates and times this last work trip and she made the process of having to make changes to the booking so easy and less stressful! It is great knowing my cat is so well taken care of when I have to be away!
Alina did a great job with taking care of Rusty. He won't forget his full body massages. Would like to tip her.
We had another great experience! Annie was punctual, followed all our instructions carefully, and even went above and beyond by doing a few extra favors while we were away. Our cats were well cared for and content when we got home, which gave us real peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax on our vacation. Thank you!
Great care for my fur babes. They warmed up quickly to her and everything went super smoothly. Caren left great details about her visits, and was super flexible in adjusting days for me. Full confidence for a rebooking.
Faatima was amazing at taking care of my three cats. Her calm presence made the cats come out and interact with her. Usually they hide when others are present. Will definitely be reaching out to her for next time.
Lauriel was wonderful! My pets were very well taken care of and I don’t even know how much they missed us. They enjoyed her so much! That is how I want to be! She was professional, prompt, and always sent pictures of my dog and cat! We will definitely use her again. She was wonderful.
