“We were so grateful to have Molly looking after our animal crew while we were on vacation! She sent daily updates, pictures, and we felt confident our pets were in good hands. Molly was reliable and communicative throughout the entire time we were away. We’d highly recommend Molly to anyone looking to have their animals taken care of!!”

“I cannot recommend Leah highly enough! Leaving my cat, Bailey, is always stressful, but Leah made it completely worry-free. I received daily updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bailey wasn't just being fed, but was actually getting genuine affection and he loved every minute of it. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Angela was great! She sent a detailed visit report and pics, and was very easy to communicate with and fast to respond. My cat is usually very shy with new people, but she even came out of her hiding for a few cuddles with Angela.”

“Kara did an amazing job taking care of Milo. She administered insulin for him in a timely manner and she made accommodations last minute when an emergency popped up. I will definitely be using her when I am away.”

“Esmeralda was FANTASTIC. My husband and I were out of the country for 5 days and we were in need of care for our English bulldog and senior French bulldog. Esmeralda did an outstanding job of communicating, providing gentle care, timely visits multiple times a day, doling out medications, keeping the house clean, sending follow up photos and more. I will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs professional and compassionate care for their pets.”

About: Hi! I’m Katie :) I’m a freelance environmental communications consultant with time on her hands and a love of all animals. Previously, I worked on farms caring for chickens and goats as well as two dogs. I love the outdoors and will happily take your dog on walks! I grew up with a Beagle and a Beagle-bloodhound mix and would pet-sit the next-door neighbor's Beagle as well as another neighborhood golden retriever. When walking or petsitting your dog, I'll make sure to give them lots of attention, active play, and follow your dirctions to the T! I'm more than happy to take photos or videos of your dog for you and will provide updates on how they're doing. Due to my love of animals and nature, 10% of revenue from each booking is donated to Painted Dogs Conservation, a nonprofit protecting the endangered African Painted Dogs in Zimbabwe. Given my current freelance work, I’m able to spend extended periods of time with your pets. You tell me how often you need your dog walked or checked-in on and I’ll adjust my schedule to accommodate it :) While taking care of your pet, safety is the Number 1 concern. There will be double checks of leashes, no doors opened unless the dog is secure or faraway from it, and regular communication to you to confirm what is going on with your animal.
About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats. In the past few years I have been a regular dog sitter for a close family friend. I also have experience handling reptiles. I’m working full time but I am available primarily in the afternoon and evenings during the week. I have open availability on Saturday and Sunday I care for pets by paying attention to their needs and wants. I love to play with dogs & cats, making sure that they are completely taken care of.
About: Growing up, my household was always filled with pets. These pets ranged from fish, birds, hamsters, cats and of course, dogs. I think we might have had more dogs than any other of the pets listed. There were times when we had three dogs at once. By growing up surrounded by puppies, I learned how to manage my time around taking care and playing with multiple dogs. I still have and care for two dogs. I can tell if they want to play or if they need to go out to do their business. I have so much love for dogs and I will show your dog as much love as I show mine when I am at home. He/She will never feel neglected while in my care.... I am also on wag.
“This was my second time reaching out to Bruce to watch my cats while away on vacation. He did a great job taking care of them, and was flexible when I asked for additional drop-ins when one of my cats was having stomach troubles. He sent lots of photos and updates, which was greatly appreciated and nice to see. Thanks Bruce!”

Naomi is a fantastic pet sitter! She took care of my shy cat, Rio, and I was (literally) shocked to see photos/videos of her out and about and getting pets from Naomi! I felt at ease while traveling, knowing she was there for Rio and taking good care of her. I will absolutely be booking with Naomi again!
