“Addison did an amazing job of caring for Sea Biscuit while I was out of town!! I was super anxious about leaving Biscuit while I went on vacation, but Addison understood what my cat needed during her visits with ease, earned Biscuit’s trust like it was nothing, and kept me informed of how she was doing so that I could enjoy my vacation without stressing. My cat was in good hands, and I’m so thankful for Addison’s good work!”


“Karen was great with my cat! She refilled Smokey's water and food bowls, emptied her litter box daily, and made sure to give my cat treats and play with her. Every day Karen sent me a paragraph describing the visit along with several photos, which I greatly appreciated. Highly recommend!”


“Marla made me so confident that my cat was well taken care of while I was away for a work trip. She was extremely communicative, I could tell my cat LOVED her, and I will definitely book her again.”


“Sherri is fantastic! She was so great with last-minute communications and was easily the most loving and interactive sitter with our dogs. We are in the middle of a cross-country move, as well as out-of-state graduations and events, and our house and lives are absolute chaos. Sherri was just so chill with it all and went above and beyond!”


“Ms. Rebecca did an amazing job caring for my shy little boy, Yong I. I had never been separated from him before, and he tends to be a very timid cat. What could have been a challenging situation for anyone, she handled with incredible patience and care! From the beginning of the booking to the end, her communication was excellent—prompt, clear, and understanding. I highly recommend Rebecca as a pet sitter. I’m already looking forward to our next visit on July 21st and will definitely continue to trust her with my fur baby. Thank you so much, Rebecca!”


“I am so happy I found Veronica for drop-ins while I traveled out of town for work. Both pups are used to having someone home all day since I work from home, and even when the anxiety got the best of one of them, Veronica was patient, kind, and caring for them. We will have her back again!”


“Ashley did a great job communicating the visits she had at my home I appreciated her loving care and attention to details. Plus, her humor in accepting the silly dog and chickens I letting her charge. Everything looked great when I returned home.”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, needs, and comfort. I’ve also been a dedicated dog mom to my two pups for more than 7 years, so I know firsthand the love, patience, and attention that pets deserve. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or senior, I’m confident in my ability to provide thoughtful, reliable care tailored to their unique personality. Caring for your pet is more than just my full-time job—it’s something I truly love and feel honored to do. I’m here whenever you need someone you can trust, whether it’s during the week, on weekends, early mornings, late nights, or overnight. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. I provide a safe, cozy, and welcoming home where your dog will feel comfortable and loved. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with my two friendly dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Boxer—who are both well-socialized and gentle. If your dog prefers or requires their own space, I have a spacious crate available to ensure they feel secure. In my home, pets are treated like family—they’re welcome on the furniture, including the bed, so they can feel right at home. We also enjoy relaxing on the small patio in the mornings, soaking up some fresh air and starting the day together in a calm, peaceful way. When I’m caring for your dog or cat in your home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease in their own space. I take great pride in treating your pet—and your home—with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, snuggles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow your routine closely so your pet feels as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. You can count on me to provide updates, lots of love, and reliable care every step of the way.

“Karina is the BEST! Our dogs love her and we do, too! She is excellent with communication and makes us feeling totally at ease knowing our fur babies are in great hands! Highly recommend! 💕🐾”


“Olivia came over to let both my pups out and she was super sweet and kept in touch! She is going to be helping us until my little one is completely potty trained and I couldn’t be more thankful!”


About: Aloha Y'all, Amanda here and I am wicked excited to meet your pet! I have always been an animal lover and love to meet new furry friends. If they are super active, I can take them on 1 to 3 mile runs or hiking. If they like to be a couch potato, I have a great big bean bag with their name on it. I can even teach them a few fun tricks while they stay with me to keep their minds active. I will work with your schedule and be attentive to your animal. I will follow your every instruction and send photo updates. I will care for your animal like they are my own with lots of love! Hope to meet you soon!

Amanda M.
“Amanda is an amazing pet sitter! She was friendly, reliable, and very flexible with her visiting schedule when it came to the care of my fur babies. I have two cats, one of which required a strict feeding schedule due to being overweight. While I was on an extended business trip, Amanda promptly came to the house three times a day to feed my chubby fur ball while making sure my other cat did not eat the “diet food”. She cleaned the litter boxes and kept my kitties entertained with play time. Amanda sent me photo and video updates of my cats each visit so that I knew they were being well cared for, too. I have referred her to my close friends for dog watching/walking and they have said she is just as great working with their dogs! I will definitely be asking her to pet sit again for me in the future!”
