Emi-Lu was so great with my two cats! It’s comforting to have sometime to trust while out of town to take care of your babies and Emi-Lu was that for us! She fed them, played with them, and cleaned the litter box (who doesn’t like coming home to a clean litter box - honestly!!!). Will definitely rebook with her in the future!

Amy took wonderful care of my three cats! They looked healthy and happy upon our arrival home. She worked everyday to bring our one hesitant cat out of his shell. We won’t hesitate to use her again in the future!

Theresa is the best cat sitter we’ve ever had. Our cat warmed up to her almost immediately which is a feat! Her updates and pictures made it obvious he was well cared for while we were gone. We are so happy we found Theresa! Don’t hesitate to book with her - can’t recommend enough!

We've loved working with Makaila over the past few months and multiple trips. She's been wonderfully professional, friendly, and very comfortable and knowledgeable about cat behavior. I was always very comfortable leaving my cat in her care, and would continue to work with her if she wasn't moving away! Highly recommend to anyone who needs a sitter.

I really hate to give Barb a great review since then everyone will want her. I have used Barb several times to watch my two cats. She is reliable, leaves the house in good order, and looks around for the cats and appreciates how well they hide.

About: I started dog sitting in 2022 for a coworker at the time, and since then I now have 9 different families I regularly sit for. I have experience with a range of dogs (from Toy Aussies to German Shepherds) as well as cats, which I grew up with, and some experience with fish and birds. I love all kinds of animals and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities! I am primarily doing online classes for school and working part-time. My working schedule can be flexible with advanced notice so I can spend the most time with your pet(s)! Whatever is best for you and your pet is what I provide! I’ve cared for very high-maintenance dogs that need multiple walks a day, special diets, etc., as well as very chill dogs that just come in and out as they please and eat whenever they want. I’m very flexible to provide whatever care the pet requires!

As an owner of an angry cat, a quiet cat, and an outgoing cat, I was worried that they would be a handful. Luckily, they loved Taylor (even the angriest older cat), and everything was great. Thank you Taylor!

Chelsea took great care of my cat while I was away for a week. She sent detailed reports and photos at each drop in visit. Was very easy to communicate with all throughout the booking. And best part is my cat loved her! Will use her again in the future
