Super last minute request and she was so accommodating with my 3 lil kitties. They were well taken care of and loved on and I came back to all of them relaxed and happy :) Will book again!

Can’t recommend Alicia enough!! She was incredibly attentive to Indi while I was away and left amazing updates and I enjoyed all of the photos she left while I was away - not to mention she was able to book last minute when my usual sitter fell through. 10/10 will be reaching out to Alicia first for all future pet sitting needs!

Lillian was great! Very friendly, had no issues with communication or the cat care itself. She sent photos each check in and I had no worries during my travel.

Kelly was the perfect sitter while we were out of town for an extended period of time. I’m not used to being away from my babies, but Kelly regularly sent detailed updates and lots of pictures, which made being away a bit easier. I would absolutely recommend Kelly to anyone needing someone to love on their animal(s) while they are busy/away!

Literally just booked again - so accommodating and willing to work with my chaotic ass, while ensuring my sweet boy got all love and care he needed while I was away. Always let me know when they were dropping in and sent the best photos. Couldn’t imagine anyone else watching my cat !!! 🖤

About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs throughout my family and neighborhood growing up. I have taken care of puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I’m currently between jobs, so I am available most days unless I am traveling. When I am working, I work remote so I am pretty flexible. I care for pets however the owner prefers. For example I can crate them and leave them off the furniture if that is preferred or they can be allowed on the couch/bed in my home/owners home for some cuddles!

About: Hi, my name is Jamie! I grew up on a small horse ranch boarding and training horses as well as multiple dogs and cats! As an adult I’ve always had a pet and have become the designated pet care friend when folks go out of town or just need extra help. I work fully remote so my schedule is very flexible, I can tailor to your pet’s needs! I live in a dog friendly apt complex with a fenced dog park and next to a walking trail. I’d love to spoil your dogs! I work remotely full time and my schedule is very flexible so I have plenty of time and flexibility for your pet! I live next to a trail and dog park as well so lots of outdoor time is very accessible! I live on the fourth floor with an easily accessible elevator or stairs. I have a small patio if your pup enjoys sunbathing and live next to a fenced dog park and walking trail.

About: Dependable and attentive sitter focused on keeping pets comfortable and routines consistent. I’m clean, communicative, and make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. I'm currently working part time and am trying to fill out more of my schedule! I have a lot of flexibility right now and want to take advantage of that to spend time petting some cute animals. I don’t offer boarding, but I prioritize a clean, safe, and calm environment when caring for pets in their home. I stick to routines and provide a steady, low-stress presence so pets feel comfortable.

Brandy was great with my cat Rudy while I was abroad. She took care of all of his needs and was super handy and helped readjust his water fountain, food dispenser, and even my camera when he knocked them down. She’s been really fantastic, especially seeing as Rudy was a little skittish and shy at first, but she took the time to get him to be comfortable around her. Thanks Brandy for your help!

Alyx was wonderful with Hex! She did drop-in visits and handled everything perfectly: keeping the litter clean, making sure he was fed, and clearly taking the time to make him feel at ease. Hex is my world, so it means a lot that he was totally comfortable with her. She also sent the cutest photos, which honestly made my day every time. Super responsive and reliable throughout. Would absolutely book again, highly recommend her!
