“Mallory was very sweet and did very well with my animals. All of them was happy when I returned from my vacation and I got several pictures of them everyday. Would absolutely hire her again!”
“Kayla is the best! I have a sweet 4 month old kitten "Chandler". She plays and engages with him and he looks forward to her visits. She has taken excellent care of him. Thank you!”
“Liz did a great job making us feel comfortable while we were away from our two cats for the first time ever. She is a pro! Your fur babies will be in good hands. She even brought in packages for us which was very much appreciated.”
“Aelish went above and beyond in caring for our cat. We have a senior special needs kitty who can be a handful, and Aelish handled her with extra special care and patience. We are so pleased with her flexibility and genuine caring for Mitzi that we wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
“Siara is great! She has taken care of our cats twice now and I know we’re always in good hands with her. She’s Kind, very friendly, prompt and communicates beautifully while caring for our cats. We will most definitely call her again.”
“Sarah is wonderful! Dropped in for us with just a day's notice! She is great with our cats as well... and made sure our fat cat didn't eat our other cats food lol which is a common occurance. Thanks again Sarah!”
“Will is awesome! This was our first time using Will and he did a great job. I was gone for 9 days and was updated constantly. One of my cats gets spicy and temperamental. Will handled it with ease and got her back to feeling comfortable within a few days. When I came home my cats were happy and my house was clean. Everything was just as I left it. Thanks will!”
“Heather is dependable and has done a great job taking care of our dogs. This is the third time we’ve had her sit for us and I’m relieved to have someone I can count on. Thank you!”
“I would give her 20 stars if I could!! I was in an emergency situation and needed help fast. She was at my house in 10 minutes!! I could not have asked for better care of my cats. She sent pictures and updates. I did not worry about them. She allowed me to come and visit also. My fur babies were played with and not stuck in a cage like at other boarding places. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again if needed. BEST CARE EVER!!!”
“Nicole stole the hearts of each of our fur babies! She is professional and experienced even with storm anxiety. All the animals look forward to the next visit. Total peace of mind for the owners too!”
“Jessica is a dream come true! Having an older pet brings extra anxiety and guilt when there is a need to travel. Jessica took the extra steps to not only care for my furbaby but to give me reassurance and allow me to leave the guilt behind. Things I said my baby liked but weren't necessary, done! Pictures, done! I will use Jessica again without hesitation and am going to recommend her to my friends and neighbors.”
“Amazing!! We are very pleased with Sydney's service. Our cat probably didn't miss us, because she was great! Sydney took the time to send us videos and pictures. She even informed us when our furry baby was a little sick! I can now go on vacation in peace, knowing Sydney will take care of our sweet cat! Thanks!”
About: I have been a pet owner my entire life. I now own 2 cats and a guinea pig (thanks to my son!). I have a calm, friendly tabby and a wild, energetic Bengal. I have experience with a variety of felines. I also have experience with pets who may need medication. I have previously cared for a diabetic cat. I have a pretty flexible and accommodating schedule. I am available for potty walks throughout the day and multiple feedings/check ins as they are needed. Due to rental restrictions I am unable to keep pets in my home, but am happy to visit your pet in their comfortable safe space.
“Samantha did a wonderful job checking in on our two boys (cats), everyday while we were gone on vacation! She kept us up to date on how they were doing and sent the cutest pictures. We will definitely be booking Samantha again!”
About: I've taken care of cats all my life and dogs from time to time. From back when I was a teen at home with our family cat to my own Tuxedo Kiwi I've been caring for cats all my life. I have a deep understanding of cat body language, respecting their boundaries, and providing the attention and care they need. I work from home as a software developer and am looking for something to break up my day between calls and project tasks. Being a remote worker means I don't get much excitement day to day. Let me change up my day to day by helping you out with your pets! I live in my own home with plenty of space for walks, trails nearby for exploring, and an open and clean home for time away from the sun.
“Trina is a gem! I feel so lucky to have found her and she took wonderful care of my kitty Izzy. So good in fact I didn't even get meowed at loudly on my return 5 days later! She played with her, fed her let her sit on her lap as much as she wanted which was a lot I'm sure. She's very conscientious and I felt like she cared for my kitty like she would want hers cared for. Izzy looks wonderful and wasn't traumatized by my leaving. BTW, my cat is 17, deaf, arthritic with kid ey disease who is super attached to me so I was terrified to leave her. But once I met Trina at the interview, I knew she would love Izzy as one of her own. I highly highly recommend her for persisting and overnights. She's the best!”
About: I have experience with dogs and cats. I grew up with a family dog and have experience caring for him as a senior. I also have experience in walking dogs. I am available anytime, I am currently not working but am looking for work. I am available on weekends, most holidays (can communicate a plan), and weekdays. I will play with your furry friend, keep them safe, and make sure they enjoy their time with me until their owners return! I don’t know the area too well but I am open to walking your dog or cat around the neighborhood!
“Leah is wonderful she took such good care of our cat Jackson! We thought he might be stressed because we don’t leave him very often but she did Drop-In visits and he did great! She kept him on his routine, lots of pictures for us and even got our mail. She is definitely our go to when we travel we have a happy boy!!!! Thank you Leah!!”
About: I have looked after both dogs and cats for multiple years of friends and family. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care I give to each pet. I treat your pet like family, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra cuddles, or understanding their unique quirks and needs. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medication and even handling leash reactivity for dogs. Clear communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals are at the core of everything I do. I currently work full-time but will be leaving soon to continue my education in a Masters program! I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.
“Lisa was punctual for each visit. She provided updates and photos during each visit and responded to questions quickly. The boys (my cats) were relaxed upon our return home. I will definitely request her the next time we need a sitter.”
