Abby did an exceptional job with taking care of my boys. She was on time and communicated to me about how they were doing and sent photos too. I have already booked her for more visits and would like to continue to use her in the future.

Deena did a great job taking care of my cat and I felt comfortable knowing someone was checking on him every day and giving him attention while I’m not there to do so. She also sent lots of cute photos so I could tell he was having a good time.

About: I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember, and I'm lucky to say that my home has never been pet-free! From dogs to hedgehogs to the cats I care for today, my lifelong experience with pets has been filled with joy and companionship. My love for animals has also given me experience caring for the pets of friends and family, in addition to my own. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I strive to provide care that is tailored to each individual animal. My goal is to help pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. As a dedicated college student who works part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for pets throughout the week. I prioritize communication and careful planning of my responsibilities to ensure that the pets I care for receive the attention and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I take the time to learn and closely follow each pet's unique routine, preferences, and any special care instructions to keep them safe and happy while their owners are away. Having five indoor cats of my own, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for and protecting beloved pets, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every animal in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same level of care, patience, and attention. My goal is not only to provide pets with reliable care, but also to provide owners with peace of mind.

Angie was wonderful with my 2 dogs! She did 2 drop in visits and we will definitely request her to care for our dogs in the future. She is very friendly and trustworthy. Thank you Angie, for taking great care of our dogs while we were gone!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have four cats, two dogs, and two rabbits, so I’m used to taking care of multiple pets with different needs and personalities. One of my dogs is very old and has become blind and deaf, which has taught me a lot about patience, paying attention to details, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for him has given me experience working with animals that need a little extra support and attention. I also volunteered at a horse rescue and rehabilitation facility for a year, where I helped with feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, and caring for horses. Working with horses taught me how to safely handle large animals, stay calm under pressure, and understand animal behavior. It gave me a lot of confidence and responsibility that I still use when caring for pets today. Besides my own animals, I’ve helped care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, basic medications, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m a 19-year-old college student currently on summer break and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I feel the same way about my own. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. ❤️ As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability outside of my part-time job. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent, quality care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, clean up after pets, ensure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and carefully follow any special instructions. I also treat each home with respect and keep pet owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

Jennifer did a great job caring for whimery! She sent in-depth updated every time she was finished with her check-in. Additionally, Jennifer stayed with whimery for longer than we requested free of charge! You can really tell that Jennifer has a passion for animals. Would definitely use her again!

Jo came to my rescue when last sitter needed to cancel for unforeseeable event. She agreed to a late meet and greet before the starting day. She was so patient with me explaining care detail of a new puppy. She stays longer every time, even helps me train my puppy. There is always very detailed feedback after each session, also gave me a in person evaluation session after a week of caring for my new puppy. I highly recommend Jo to pet parents with busy schedule or need help with your furry baby.

Up front I will say I don't trust many people with my doggies, but after meeting Cheryl I felt so comfortable. She is kind, compassionate and great with animals. She took the time to get to know them prior and asked questions to really understand their needs. I would 100% recommend and am so glad I have found someone I can trust to take care of my babies when I can't be here.

Adina is super kind, dependable and attentive. A perfect match for our cat Lupe! Luckily she was available to book several drop-in visits with him. Thanks to her we were not concerned at all about the well being of Lupe while we were away, because she never left us hanging! We came home to a happy, loving kitty. Adina will definitely be on the top of our list whenever we might need someone to take care of Lupe in the future!

About: I’ve grown up with and spent many years living with pets of all kinds! I love animals and have done many overnight sits, walks and feedings for the pets of friends and family. I work part time and have an extremely flexible schedule. I do not have any children and I do have my own vehicle so it’s easy for me to schedule pet care on almost any day. I can feed, water, walk, crate and care for your animals based around whatever your normal day-to-day care system would be. I’m very adaptable and believe in keeping your pet’s normal schedule as much as possible.

About: I’m majoring in business and I own a long haired chihuahua. I’ve cared for neighbor’s and family’s dogs in the past by walking and dog sitting. I’m on a very flexible schedule, so most times during week days I will be able to walk your dog! I’m excited to take them on walks :) For dog walking, I like to make sure we walk in areas with sidewalks that are safe. I’d bring water to keep your dog hydrated, especially if it is warm out!
