“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 is an amazing pet sitter!! We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog and cat in her care. She gave updates and photos with each visit, and even got our mail and took out our trash. We will definitely book her services again!”
“I have really appreciated Makaila taking care of our cat while we were gone. She always goes above and beyond, and even went out of her way to get supplies for Buddy when we ran out. She is truly amazing and will always book with her! Your pet is in excellent care with her! Thank you Makaila!”
“Lyle cares for our two pooches and elderly kitty on a regular basis. He is always super responsive and does his best to help us if we have a last minute need for him to drop in our fur babies. Our pups love him and we know they are well cared for when we're not home.”
“Needed a last minute drop in visit to let out our bulldog Miggy. Theresa responded quickly to our request. We relocated due to my husbands work so could no longer have family help us out. Loved getting photos also!”
“Kara was amazing to work with and took such fantastic care of my 2 kitties while I was out of town! It was clear they were well cared for and she attended to every detail! Communication was also very good!”
“Barb has been watching my two cats for several years. I'm always pleased. Even though they are tremendously shy she has finally gotten them to come out of cover at least for a little while. A major accomplishment!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for about 2 years now. I usually help family or friends when they go out of town. Im currently going to school online part time and I work at Trader Joes on the night shift. Please let me know 2 weeks in advance if you require house sitting. If I’m in a clients home, I will do what the client says is more better for the dog. Whatever is comfortable for them and what they are used to.
“Arden was the best cat nanny I’ve ever met! She took care of my 2 cats for 3 weeks! She was very attentive to their needs! She gave them so much love and very good care! I highly recommend her and definitely would use her services again no doubt! 1000/10!”
“Thank you Kristi&Jason for taking good care of our puppies! First time using this service and they were so kind and helpful and the puppies had a great time. I even got a breakdown of each puppy after the visit. Will be using again!”
About: I’ve worked for people in my neighborhood and they love what I do and l love there pets too and I’m trusting and I take really good care of there pets. It gives me a sense of responsibility and I take it seriously and I wanna do a good job at it. And I would love to work around pets more then people and when I do it it doesn’t feel like work for me, it feels like something I love to do. I take care of my two cats by giving them a strict diet and I fallow the instructions to the letter and I make sure there litter boxes are as clean as possible so I’m always on top of things.
“Kelena was great. Proactive communication, went above and beyond when one of my pups was sick, and she really wants to get it right. Plus my dogs liked her immediately which is a great sign! Highly recommend.”
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!
“We have used Michelle two times now for dog walking and drop in visits. She was able to do 3 drop ins over 2 days to feed our cats while we took a trip up north!! We so appreciate her! She took pictures and kept us updated!! I recommend her for your pet care needs.”
“This is the first time we have used Rover. Laura is a great sitter. She sends notes, lots of pictures, and even videos. It is comforting to know our kitty was taken care of, played with, and loved. Laura truly treated our kitty like he is her own. We already booked with her for our next trip.”
