Kaylee/Joe were amazing! I had reached out last minute for a few drop in visits while I had last minute travel. They were very accommodating, provided updates each visit with lots of pictures to know my baby was in good hands! Highly recommend!

About: Finding someone to trust with your pet is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly at all. I grew up in California surrounded by animals, so taking care of pets has always been a big part of my life. I’ve looked after my own pets, family pets, and friends pets for as long as I can remember, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs, from big breeds like Rottweilers and Newfoundlands to smaller ones like Papillons and Pomeranians, plus everything in between like Golden Retrievers and Pit Bulls. Every dog has such a different personality, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy. I also have a lot of experience with cats. I grew up with them, have cared for many over the years, and have even bottle-fed kittens. I’m also experienced with giving medication and caring for senior pets, so I’m happy to help with more specific needs too. I currently have an English Bulldog named Phoebe, and she’s very loved (and very spoiled), so I completely understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet like family. That’s exactly how I approach every pet I care for. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm, comforting presence, I’ll adjust to whatever they need to feel safe and happy. And as someone who’s a bit of a perfectionist, I’ll also make sure your home is kept clean and just the way you left it. Right now I’m studying for the LSAT and saving for my wedding with my fiancé, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can give your pets a lot of attention and care. My goal is for your pet to feel completely comfortable and loved while you’re away, and for you to feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets 🐾 Right now, I’m studying for the LSAT and saving for my wedding with my fiancé, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can give your pets all of my undivided attention and care. I currently live in a clean, quiet, and dog-friendly apartment building. There are dog parks nearby and plenty places to walk your dog! However, I am also more than happy to follow your dog's current routine and take them on their favorite walking routes or to their favorite park! The duration and location of walks are entirely up to you while your dog is with me!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Friends, family, neighbors, and pet owners have trusted me to care for their pets as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what helps them feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, reinforcing routines, or simply providing companionship, I am attentive, patient, and dependable. I know how important communication is when you’re away from your pet, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins for peace of mind. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. I work remote, so I’m often home throughout the day and can accommodate pets who need companionship, regular walks, medication, feeding schedules, or frequent potty breaks. I enjoy maintaining pets’ routines and providing updates so owners can travel with peace of mind. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any household guidelines provided by pet parents. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats through house-sitting and pet-sitting assignments, including senior pets. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, communication, and making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owners are away.

Nikita was on time (2X) every day, was very attentive to our “little old lady,” and kept us well-informed while we were away. She also took the initiative to work with our building security to remove an “overnight camper” from our patio while we were out of contact range. Thank you, Nikita!

About: Hi! I’ve always loved dogs and really miss spending time with my family dog, who lives out of state. I’d treat your pet like one of my own! I’m available for morning and evening walks during the week, plus Fridays and weekends. I have flexibility in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my routine. I enjoy walking and spending time with dogs before or after work and can commit to regular walks or check-ins during those time windows. While I don’t host pets in my home, I take great care to respect not just pets but clients' homes during visits and walks. I follow instructions carefully, ensure doors are locked when I leave, and always double-check leash and harness fittings before walking.

I loved having Katarzyna take care of my cat while I was away in a work trip. Despite the last minute request, she took the time to meet up before I left to meet my finicky kitty. She treated my anxious cat with the perfect amount of care and respect. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages. I will definitely rebook with her in the future!

I got detailed summaries of each visit and lots of pictures which always puts my mind at ease! I will definitely be booking them again in the future.

Kara was wonderful with Pukka! She stayed with her while I made a quick trip to the vet to pick up her medication after surgery, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing Pukka wasn't alone. She was kind, patient, and caring, and I truly appreciated her help. I'd happily recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

I'm so glad to have been able to book Russell for a second round of visits! Russell visited my two cats every day for nearly a month and took great care of them. He sent daily visit photos which put my mind at ease. On the day of my return my flight was delayed over 5 hours, and Russell very kindly made an extra visit to my guys to make sure they were fed and watered despite my delay. My cats and I loved having Russell!
