Anna has been reliable and trustworthy. She drops in with our 2 month old pug Luna multiple times a week. It’s been great knowing Luna is in good hands.

Avery took amazing care of my dog & 2 cats while I went away. She sent personalized updates multiple times a day and cute photos as well! There was a big storm while I was away and she even went out of her way to tidy up my outdoor furniture and made sure everything was secured. Will absolutely book again and highly recommend!

I’m excited to offer the level of dedication and affection your pets deserve! With my flexible schedule as a student, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet’s well-being. My availability allows me to provide attentive, personalized care that fits your pet’s needs, whether it’s daily playtime, regular feeding, exercise, or just extra companionship. I understand the importance of consistency and a steady routine for animals, and I’m committed to creating a comfortable, joyful environment for them. With my experience and love for animals, your pet will receive exceptional care and attention, helping them feel secure and happy while you’re away. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I understand that pets thrive in familiar surroundings, so I take special care to maintain the routines they’re used to, whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, or daily walks. I also ensure your home is respected and secure, taking the same approach I would in my own space.

Kyle was invaluable by looking after our reptiles on short notice that we were able to have peace of mind while abroad without having to board then. We definitely would recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Kelly does an incredible job every time she watches my cats. She doesn’t just feed them and leave. She spends real, quality time with them, which makes a huge difference. I can tell Steve and Luci really like her and feel comfortable around her. On top of that, she’s an expert-level pet photographer. The photos she sends are always amazing perfectly capturing their personalities and giving me total peace of mind while I’m away.

About: Hello, I'm Angelo! I've worked with pets since I was a child, and would love to help you free up valuable time while helping your pet get the care they deserve. I grew up with many animals and was responsible for their care, including regularly walking 4 dogs at once. As I became a teenager, I started working within my neighborhood walking the neighbors' dogs, and professionally worked as a dog walker entering college. Assisting people's animals helped put me through undergrad, and I'm excited to resume to help put me through graduate school. I've worked across the spectrum, from small dogs with big tempers to very large dogs full of energy, as well as puppies and elder dogs. I'm also very familiar with caring for cats/kittens, and even less traditional pets such as snakes, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, fish, shrimp, and even jumping spiders! As a bonus, I'm well versed in caring for house plants of different varieties. I hope this helps you feel at ease entrusting me with your pet's care. Thank you for your time and I look forward to working together. I am completely available this summer for daily dog-walking and sitting needs! This includes weekdays and weekends, from 8 am to 9 pm. If you're interested in a regular schedule, I'm happy to talk! I'm comfortable with new situations and environments, and can easily crate your dog if needed. I'm also familiar with many different leash/harness set ups. I likewise do strength training, so in the event a dog needs to be picked up, I have been trained in animal first aid carrying techniques and can do so even with larger dogs.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated cat mom with 4 cats of my own, so I truly understand how to care for cats with patience and love. I’m experienced with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to provide updates and photos during every visit. I’ll treat your pets like my own 💛 I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care on both weekdays and weekends. I make pet care part of my daily routine, so your pet will never feel rushed. I always ensure they receive consistent feeding, playtime, and companionship, and I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I carefully follow all instructions from pet parents, including feeding routines, medications, and any special care needs. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and I communicate regularly with updates, photos, and messages so you always feel at ease. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.

It makes such a difference to have someone as trustworthy and professional as Joy to take care of our kitties. From the photos and updates she sends, it is clear they live having her visit with our Puma and Reina. We appreciate her consistency, attention to detail and from bringing our packages/deliveries into the house when we are away. She's very good at making sure everything is done right.

She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.

Mari is such a pleasant person to be around. She understood exactly what it takes to care for an older cat with health conditions like our Ziggy. I really appreciated the level of enthusiasm, attentiveness, and experience she brought, even with a long list of medications and feeding instructions. It’s clear that she genuinely cares deeply about both the animals and the people who love them.
