“Ali was Amazing with my cats!! I felt so comfortable being away for almost 2 weeks knowing she was taking care of them. She has such a heart for animals and truly loves on them. They were usually waiting at the door for her. She followed our specific feeding needs, maintained the water fountain and cleaned up after them of any of their feeding messes! We will definitely continue to use her in the future”
“Mallory was very sweet and did very well with my animals. All of them was happy when I returned from my vacation and I got several pictures of them everyday. Would absolutely hire her again!”
“Kayla is the best! I have a sweet 4 month old kitten "Chandler". She plays and engages with him and he looks forward to her visits. She has taken excellent care of him. Thank you!”
“Liz did a great job making us feel comfortable while we were away from our two cats for the first time ever. She is a pro! Your fur babies will be in good hands. She even brought in packages for us which was very much appreciated.”
“Sarah is wonderful! Dropped in for us with just a day's notice! She is great with our cats as well... and made sure our fat cat didn't eat our other cats food lol which is a common occurance. Thanks again Sarah!”
“Will is awesome! This was our first time using Will and he did a great job. I was gone for 9 days and was updated constantly. One of my cats gets spicy and temperamental. Will handled it with ease and got her back to feeling comfortable within a few days. When I came home my cats were happy and my house was clean. Everything was just as I left it. Thanks will!”
“Heather is dependable and has done a great job taking care of our dogs. This is the third time we’ve had her sit for us and I’m relieved to have someone I can count on. Thank you!”
“I would give her 20 stars if I could!! I was in an emergency situation and needed help fast. She was at my house in 10 minutes!! I could not have asked for better care of my cats. She sent pictures and updates. I did not worry about them. She allowed me to come and visit also. My fur babies were played with and not stuck in a cage like at other boarding places. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again if needed. BEST CARE EVER!!!”
“Nicole stole the hearts of each of our fur babies! She is professional and experienced even with storm anxiety. All the animals look forward to the next visit. Total peace of mind for the owners too!”

“Trina is a gem! I feel so lucky to have found her and she took wonderful care of my kitty Izzy. So good in fact I didn't even get meowed at loudly on my return 5 days later! She played with her, fed her let her sit on her lap as much as she wanted which was a lot I'm sure. She's very conscientious and I felt like she cared for my kitty like she would want hers cared for. Izzy looks wonderful and wasn't traumatized by my leaving. BTW, my cat is 17, deaf, arthritic with kid ey disease who is super attached to me so I was terrified to leave her. But once I met Trina at the interview, I knew she would love Izzy as one of her own. I highly highly recommend her for persisting and overnights. She's the best!”
About: I have grown up with animals and pets my whole life. Growing up by farm in Germany, I fostered a love and care for all animals and I am my happiest when I’m with them. While I have always owned cats myself, I also have experience with dog-sitting (including walking, playing (of course☺️), and minor allergy medications). I adore pups/cats and am excited to care for your little ones! I currently work 3 days a week in EMS (W-F) and am very flexible outside of these hours to love and care for your pets. Safety is of utmost importance!! When leaving the house, I will ensure all doors are locked. I will keep an eye out to make sure your dog doesn’t try to eat something they shouldn’t or bring things into your home. I will also keep an eye on other animals around your pet, especially when walking and leaving the home. I have two cats of my own - Flo & Mo. While one is apprehensive, the other is goofy (and very orange). Every pet is different and I will respect their needs and comfort zones while in their space.
“Leah is wonderful she took such good care of our cat Jackson! We thought he might be stressed because we don’t leave him very often but she did Drop-In visits and he did great! She kept him on his routine, lots of pictures for us and even got our mail. She is definitely our go to when we travel we have a happy boy!!!! Thank you Leah!!”
“Lisa was punctual for each visit. She provided updates and photos during each visit and responded to questions quickly. The boys (my cats) were relaxed upon our return home. I will definitely request her the next time we need a sitter.”
About: Life long animal lover and pet parent, who recognizes that our furry friends are our family and deserve the best care and consideration! I've taken care of animals since I was kiddo, and currently share a roof with three cats and one pup. Friends, family, former employers, and my very own animals trust me to watch, walk, feed, water, groom (brushing, bathing, trimming nails) and lavish their cats and dogs with attention. My availability varies, as I work in the Events field, but I am ready and interested to take on regular weekday workday (9-5) walking duties with your pups! As a guest in your home, I will show your space and family the utmost respect. Being invited into your family's space is a privilege.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I got my first dog when I was 12 ever since then I've become very close with dogs and I have grown to love them very much, and now I take care of my little pomeranian! My schedule is super flexible! I'm an early riser, so I'm totally up for taking your pet on an early morning stroll if that works best for you. I'm here every day except Sundays. Just let me know when you need a hand! 😄 I'm lucky to live within walking distance of both the greenway and Mill Mountain. Your pet is in for a treat – I'd love to take them for a stroll in either spot, and I'm pretty sure they'll have a blast! 🌳🐾
“Katie did a great job!! She was very personable and easy to work with. She checked in with pictures and texts throughout her stay. I have five dogs that have different energy levels and personalities and Katie mastered them all! I will definitely have her back and recommend her highly.”
“Brendle is very reliable and trustworthy. We have used her numerous times and we know our dogs are in great hands when we are gone! She sends lots of updates and pictures. Very responsive to us checking in on our dogs.”

Sarah H.
“If I needed someone to watch my pets Sarah is the first person I would call. She is a natural caretaker and is incredibly diligent. She owns pets of her own (and has been a pet owner since childhood) and it’s clear when I watch her interact with her pets that she loves them and they improve her life. Sarah is attentive and responsible; her day-to-day job requires she medically care for people, and in the past she has babysat for neighbors. She does every job with the utmost care.”
