“Xeque, was a fantastic sitter for my two outdoor cats. She communicated thoroughly and was flexible with last minute changes. Thank you so much for accommodating my kitties need!”

“I’m so grateful for Sarah! She took such great care of my very shy cat, and coaxed him to open up to her. I had some out-there instructions based on my trip and pet car situation, but she handled everything perfectly. Very communicative and so sweet!”

“Ashley was fantastic with our two large dogs! We loved seeing the pictures she sent and reading her thorough description of the drop in. She communicated well, was accommodating to our schedule, and reliable. We'll definitely be requesting her again!”

“Love Hannah & Tiffany!! Panicked because my boarder closed & I’m picky about who watches my pups. However, they were able to drop in & my pups loved them. I will definitely ask for their assistance again & cannot recommend them enough.”

“Once again Jacqueline and Michael were fantastic with our dogs during their drop in visits. They are on-time, provide frequent updates and flexible with a last minute schedule change. We will use them in the future!”

“Rodrigo was very accommodating, especially considering we requested a 3-service visit for our three kitties just 9 days before an unplanned trip to Texas. Rodrigo fit us into his busy schedule and made time to visit us and our three kitties before we left town. Rodrigo was extremely professional and detail oriented, asking questions to ensure he took care of our kitties to our satisfaction. We highly recommend him for trustworthy and wonderful pet care.”

“Nicole is so nice and easy to work with!! She’s very responsive and gives great updates on her visits. My cat enjoyed her check ins and was in a good mood when we came home after our trip.”

“Kim and her daughter did a wonderful job caring for my cat. She made sure she had enough food and water, had 30min playtime and pet sessions with her, and made sure she wasn’t sick somewhere. Will definitely be choosing her services again in the future!”


“Taylor did a great job making sure our kitty got her medicine and lots of love while we were away! All 3 cats were well cared for! We have already booked her again.”

About: Ive owned 3 dogs of my own, i enjoy walking and playing outdoors so adding a dog makes things 10x better! I have experience overnight sitting and just popping in on my lunch breaks for my neighbors and pastors dogs I work 10-4 monday-thrusday but im open all weekend, before and after work as well. I work 5 minutes down the road from my home so I don't have a long commute leaving more time to see pets! im there to focus on the pets, i ensure to leave a list and updates of everything done and i dont want to invade on your space! i like being told where toys, food, leashes etc can all be found to ensure i create a fun environment for your pet!,
“Absolutely phenomenal with our rottie. She was so excited to meet him and it’s evident she’s an animal person because he loves her right back! Laura is our go-to dog caretaker. 🩵”

“We just started using Lacey and she is wonderful with our dogs, and takes care of them as we would. Couldnt be happier with her car and attention she gives our beagles. Love her writeups and notes. Very thorough and fun to read. They have really taken to her and by the looks of the pictures she provided they really enjoy her company.”

“Raffish was amazing with my two Rotties! She came twice a day and performed drop in visits where she gave them lots of outside playtime and ensured they had ample food and water. She even went over and beyond and gave them extra playtime outside on sunny days! I couldn’t ask for a better extension of my family. I will be booking again!”

“It was our first time using a pet sitting service, so we started out with a 30 minute visit. Ashlee communicated with us as needed, and she was very patient with our shy pup Luna. We've already booked two more visits with Ashlee.”

“Carlita treated my baby just as I would. She was very timely, she ensured to do all the things I do for my dog (heat her food, put on her pajamas, etc). Zoe was always excited to see her. She took such excellent care of Zoe. It’s hard to find good people you trust with your pets who are family and I’m so glad to have found her!”


About: I've taken care of pets since I was a child. I've pet sitted for friends, family, and neighbors. I don't have any pets of our own to love, so sweet faces and wet noses are greatly appreciated. I work full time but my weekly hours are flexible and I'm able to work some from home. We have no pets so your pets will have all of our attention. We have plenty of yard space with lots of trees for sniffing, a large closed in private deck, and 2 walkable parks in our neighborhood.
“Fang has been and continues to be a reliable and trusted sitter. I’ve had a handful of last minute needs and Fang has been clutch every time. Trust is golden when it comes to my animals plus giving access to my house when I’m not home! Thank you again Fang!”

“Kelsey made the last minute request easy-peasy! Molly didn't want to get off the bed or the couch and Kelsey was patient and got her to go outside so I really appreciate that!”

“Whitney was absolutely amazing! I needed help on short notice, and Whitney went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and to make sure that my cats were taken care of while I was away. We were able to communicate feeding plans, and she kept me updated on how my cats were doing on each drop-in. I would definitely work with her again or recommend her services.”

Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.

We are so thankful to have found Amy! We have a rescue pup who is very apprehensive and anxious of new people, and Amy’s calm yet knowledgeable demeanor made our pup warm up quicker than we have experienced before. We trusted Amy to watch all of our pets (2 dogs, 2 cats) and knew they were well cared for, which was such a relief!

Our kitties absolutely loved having Amaya look after them while we were out of town! We did too! They are usually pretty shy around strangers and can take some time to warm up but both kitties came out without any hesitation and enjoyed their playtime and hanging out. Amaya was very patient with my detailed information about the kitties and super respectful to the house. She was super communicative and gave me awesome updates with pics of both kitties. I felt super comfortable that both our fur babies were with someone very trustworthy who cares about animals while we are away. We will definitely be trying to book with Amaya again the next trip we are able to take.

Stephanie was such a fantastic caretaker for our dog ! Nothing but great things to say about all her care, attention, and communication ! Would strongly recommend if you're looking for someone to take care of your furry family member. Bodhi is already looking forward to the next time he gets to see his new friend !

Arely was simply fantastic with our two senior dogs! She arrived at every visit promptly, fed and treated our babies wonderfully, snapped some great pictures (honestly, I'm impressed) and made sure to lock the house up afterwards. We even had to change our booking last minute and Arely was very accommodating! She gave us peace of mind while we away and we look forward to using her again!

Gianni is an amazing. If you’re looking for a person who loves animals and is going to take amazing care of your pets I highly recommend Gianni. She took care of my cats and gave insulin to my diabetic cat. She took extra care of my diabetic cat and he was so happy when we got back ❤️
