“Natalie was very communicative, took good photos, and overall gave our cats excellent care for a couple check ins, which we booked on somewhat short notice. Definitely recommend!”

“Martha did an amazing job again, she is very caring and responsible. She sent me plenty of pictures of my fur babies which I loved, and let me know how they were doing at every visit. Thank you!!”
About: I have three of my own pups and 2 cats, and if my husband would let me have more I would! We don’t deserve animals! They are literally the best thing! I hope I can love your animals as much as I love mine while you are away! My boys love new friends and would be so excited to meet your fur babies. I work full time, but only work 8 hour shifts with some remote days. If your pets do well with other pets and hanging out for a few hours alone, I’ve got you covered! I have an elderly boy (14), so I know all about meds and providing comfort! Message me for more scheduling details, I can sometimes move my schedule around to accommodate. I have a fenced yard, my animals are indoor mostly because of this sac heat. I have the ac and fans on always to make sure they are the most comfortable they can be!
“We have a feisty old kitty who is very hard to medicate. Andee has been more successful with medicating her than any other pet sitter we have tried! We are very grateful for Andee’s excellent animal care skills.”
“Extremely kind and communicative! It was amazing seeing so many photos and videos of my babies while I was away. Natalie took the time to hang out and play with my cats, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Debbie has now cared for my dog twice, and she has done an outstanding job both times. I look forward to seeing the many pictures and reading the summary from each visit, and I am comfortable being away knowing my dog is being well cared for at home.”
“Absolutely an above and beyond sitter; she dog sat one of our pups that has behavioral health issues from prior abuse. I was worried all weekend how his care would be, but she handled this job with such ease. My dog liked her off the bat, which is a bit uncommon for him. She pet him, played with him, refilled his food and ensured water was there everyday. She even assisted in cleaning one plastic bottles that my dog got into when I was gone, she was so kind and respectful to the home. On top of her amazing work and compassion, she also gifted my doggie a bed, since he loves to destroy the many we buy him. Along with her kind gestures, she also provided pictures of my dog during her stay over with him. Overall she is an amazing sitter and I will love to have her again. I definitely look forward to booking her again for any future dog sitting.”
“Reece was conscientious and accommodating—meeting the cats before the first drop in and getting all the details of their care. He sent lots of pictures and helpful updates following the drop in!”
“Bethany did a wonderful job taking care of our two boys. One is young, huge, and very energetic. The other is an old man. She was able to manage both dogs very different needs. We received pictures with every visit which is a huge comfort. Thank you Bethany!”
“Alyssa was great! She dropped in twice a day while we were gone to feed and play with/walk my dogs. When we got home the dogs were happy & relaxed, couldn’t ask for anything more. Will definitely book her again.”
“Monti took my dog on daily walks and gave him food & fresh water. I witnessed a little bit and he was highly competent with my dog. I asked him if I can extend. He did extend, though the price was higher.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, so pet care is second nature! I've been walking, feeding, and loving on furry friends since for the last 15 years. I'm also great at giving meds (even the sneaky ones!) and making pets feel comfy and cared for. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. Your pets will be in caring, capable hands. Working remotely gives me a flexible schedule, so I can easily visit pets during lunch breaks or before and after work to give them care and attention. I always prioritize each pet’s safety by following all care instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication and walk guidelines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also keep emergency contacts and vet info handy, so I’m fully prepared. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority!
“Emily was great with my elderly cat. She has perfect instincts for when to get closer and when to give her space. My cat was happy, healthy, and calm when I got home from vacation. I will use her services again.”
About: I’ve grown up near animals my whole life and they have my heart. Knowing that family members had pets was the only thing to get me to go to functions as a kid. I’m caring and attentive and understand that our furry friends need the best care in the world and I’m here to provide that! :) I work in the mornings until around noon each day, after that I am free to care for your pets! I’m also open weekends all day for pet care! I have one older cat, Camilla, who is friendly, shy and gets along well with other animals. I have a fenced off backyard with plenty of room to run around and play in, and able to care to whatever your pet needs!
“Georgia was great with my dog and cat! They enjoyed spending time with her and were happy to see her walk in the door! Will definitely use Georgia in the future!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life, from big and little dogs and puppies, kittens and cats and the animals on my aunt's homestead. I put a great level of detail into the care of animals and enjoy seeing them happy and well! I am very flexible with my schedule. I can do weekdays or weekends, and can schedule work in the evenings if that is what works best for you. I can work with you to form care schedules and will keep you updated on your pets behavior and well-being so you can rest assured they are being taken care of.

Dominique F.
“Dominique is amazing, she is awesome with my fur babies. My 2 standard poodles and kitty love her and when she comes over and they smother her with their wonderful wet kisses. They all fight for the place of honor on her lap. She is patient and loving and treats my babies like they are her own. I feel total safe when I know it’s Dominique coming over or walking my babies. My girls can tell the true spirit of a person the minute they meet that person and they have been in love with her ever since they met her. Like I said she is amazing, loving and caring and I would recommend her to any fur-baby parent - your precious babies are safe and alway loved with her - she is the next best thing to me lol 😁”

isabella d.
“Bella has watched my cat for extended periods multiple times over the last few years and is the most reliable and trustworthy pet sitter I've ever had. Bella is detail oriented and follows all pet care instructions to the letter. She is also a responsive and detailed communicator and always provides me with regular updates on how my cat is doing. I have never been left wondering if my cat was ok or if Bella was taking care of her properly. I can also attest that Bella thoroughly prepares for possible emergencies, as each time I leave for a trip, she double checks that she has updated health and vet information. She has never needed to use that info but it puts my mind at ease to know that she takes that possibility very seriously. I feel that Bella treats my pet with the same love and care as her own, which is exactly the type of pet sitter you want. I would recommend Bella to anyone - there isn't anyone I trust with my cat more than her.”

Hope is the best!!!! When she is watching our two cats I know she cares as much about them as I do! She is an excellent and thorough communicator. Hope takes and shares the best cat pictures which helps us miss them a little less while we are away. We are so grateful for the love she shows our cats!
We are incredibly lucky to have found such a caring and loving doggy care giver! We have two dogs with very different personalities, and Cyrene was able to care for them in the best way. Not only did they follow all our instructions, but they also went above and beyond to ensure our doodles were healthy, happy, and had some outside time/exercised. Our boys are patiently waiting for more Cyrene visits!
We are so grateful for Jandy. We messaged her at 2:30AM looking for someone experienced to help us out with our sweet sick cat. He has chronic diseases and was pretty stable before we left for a short trip, but we noticed on our cameras he was having a flare up while we were gone. Our regular sitter wasn’t ready to manage it. Jandy answered us that morning and was at our place by 11:30 AM giving our cat SubQ fluids, meds, and sweet snuggles. He was doing much better after she took care of him. She is clearly very knowledgeable with cats with medical problems. She shared some of her experience in taking care of cats with similar issues, and what worked for them, obviously discuss all treatment with your vet, but we found it helpful! Because of Jandy we got to enjoy the rest of our trip knowing our cat was in good hands.
I cannot overstate how grateful we are to have found Shera as a pet sitter. She is fabulous: incredibly communicative, very trustworthy and kind, and clearly cares deeply about each animal. We always have a hard time being away from our pets, but she makes it so much easier. Thank you, Shera!!
I’ve had Alma scheduled for drop ins for the past few months on the days I work. She is really good and patient with my teenage dog. She even helps with his training. She’s very communicative, replies fast and leaves a detailed note with good pictures. Very flexible with her schedule especially in hotter days. Never missed a visit. Able to do any of my requests. She has been very consistent with me.
Josilyn was amazing with Lucy! She brushed her, took her on walks, played with her, and made sure she felt loved and happy the whole time. She even accommodated an extra day last minute, which I’m so thankful for. I’m really glad Josilyn was the one taking care of Lucy — she went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!
