“Zachariah and Morgan take wonderful care of my cats! They are very communicative about how the cats are doing and always send pictures as well. I always feel comfortable going out of town knowing the kitties are in great hands!”
“Sasha was amazing! While on a long trip Sasha kept me updated on Irwin’s habits and even checked in on him extra. She is super sweet and attentive and cared for my cat as her own. I was confident he was receiving the best care and will definitely be booking with her for future pet/home sitting! Thank you!”
“Carey is the best! She took incredible care of my senior cat, who is notoriously suspicious of strangers and requires medications and supplements. She provided very detailed updates with each visit, and was incredible communicative, which really gave me peace of mind and enabled me to enjoy a trip out of town without worrying about my girl. To top it all off, I came home to a very tidy house - Carey was kind enough to wash up Kitson's dishes, all of her meds and food were organized, and the litterbox area was incredibly clean - all of this was very appreciated after a long day of travel. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Marisa is great. She's conscientious, observant, and even our scaredy cat eventually lets Marisa pet and play with her. We've used Marisa before and will definitely hire her again.”
“Hilary did an awesome job with our 2 cats! She was on time, fed and medicated them, hung out with them and sent pix! She is by far the best person we've ever had watch our cats. Hilary took care of cleaning the litter and bringing in the mail every day, too. We highly recommend her - she clearly enjoys what she does, and we are super grateful!”
“Ashley was super attentive to our four cats... even the most shy of them came out for cuddles!”
“Cassidy did a great job taking care of my cats! She came on time, followed the instructions I left, and sent a ton of pictures. I would book with her again in the future.”
“Amy took excellent care of our cat while we were away! We did an initial in person meet and greet beforehand and as soon as we met her, we knew we’d picked a reliable, trustworthy person to check in our cat. She was punctual each day to make sure he had his food bowl refilled, litter box scooped and send us detailed after visit reviews and photos. Having Amy caring for our cat allowed us to truly have a relaxing vacation with peace of mind knowing everything was okay at home. Would love to use her pet sitting services in the future.”
“Elena was a great sitter for our two cats! my wife and I had a million special requests, cat care changes, and trip changes. Elena was nothing but understanding, kind, and helpful. She clearly loves all animals and does everything she can to make them feel happy and cared for. She was great with medicine and with dealing with our furry family member. I would not hesitate for a second to ask Elena to watch our cats again! Thank you Elena!”
About: I have had experience caring and loving for dogs almost my whole life. My family has always had a dog in the house and I've been caring for dogs from a young age. I'm experienced, passionate and safe. If you're looking for a fun place for your dog to have their very own vacation, you've come to the right place. I began dog sitting for friends and family since I moved into my fabulous dog-friendly apartment. When your dog stays with me, they can enjoy my fenced front yard and I'm very close to a fun dog park. Dogs in my care will enjoy lots of snuggles, playtime and treats--with their owner's permission of course. I understand dog body language, and have cared for dogs of all types. If you pup is anxious, I will make them feel comfortable by offering them kindness and gentle playtime. Dogs--and their owners--love me because I know exactly how to make a dog feel at ease. If you think I'd be a great fit for your pet, please give me a call! I can't wait to hear from you. I love going for walks in my neighborhood and sitting on my back patio, especially when I have a dog to join me!

About: Most of my pets have been trained by my family so I have a pretty good training schedule for dogs. My own dog was trained very early on at 8 months and it was just based off of knowledge from my parents. I’m super grateful to have had that experience growing up because it’s definitely made me want to take care of dogs and even kitties, the more knowledge I had about them grew into what made me love them so much. Their minds aren’t much different from ours❤️ I currently work full time, about 8 to 4:30 through the week but have 1.5 lunches so my evenings are open and so are my mornings and then weekends, most the time I’m available during lunch as well I treat other people’s home like my own. I don’t want my things disrespected so I will not disrespect yours. I grew up in a military family so I am very by the book as rules go that are given to me. You’ll be trusting me with your fur baby but also your home, there’s a respect there that cannot be broken. Fine believer in treat others how you would like to be treated and that goes for anything in life!
