“I am so grateful for Caroline’s exceptional care of my cat during the days I was away for a second time since my last bookings! She went above and beyond to ensure he was well-fed, happy, and comfortable. Not only did she make sure he took his pills without a hitch, but she also spent quality time playing with him, which I really appreciated. Her communication was fantastic, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a responsible and loving sitter. Thank you, Caroline!”

“Rico is amazing and as quickly become a valued part of our family. He is thorough, kind, and highly communicative, which is so appreciated as pet parents.”


About: I’ve had a dog my entire life, so caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, though I’ve primarily grown up with small and medium breeds. I can handle daily routines, walks, playtime, and different personalities with patience and care. I’m open to caring for larger dogs as long as they are well-behaved and non-aggressive :). Clear communication about your dog’s temperament helps ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone. I treat every dog with love, respect Baths are available upon request for $15.

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.
“Lavinia was an amazing sitter & very pleasant to work with! Our 3 cats got to spend a bit of Christmas with her & we are so so pleased with how the visit went! She was always timely in her responses which was so appreciated. She was even willing to be flexible on short notice & I’m so thankful for that! The photos she provided from her stay brought huge smiles to my partner & I as well! Highly recommend Lavinia as a sitter!”

“Heather has been so helpful checking up on our pups while we’re at work! It’s clear they are super comfortable with her and she always sends cute photos of their time together!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Isabella. She was so kind and attentive to our cat while we were away. We felt like he was in the best hands! She was a great communicator, sending daily updates and pictures and it was clear that our cat felt comfortable with her. We would absolutely recommend her and would love to have her again in the future!”

About: ❤️dogs! Had them since child, first one was Shepard mix, couple of pitbull terriers, my new buddy is a 2 yr old doberman named todoroki, we go on long walks all the time I currently work on the door dash app so my schedule is free during the day from about 7 am to about 4pm I usually deliver at night Lots of walks, I can take your puppy on the walk he desperately needs while your working never worry if your baby had an accident again
“Alexandra was very accommodating towards Mr Cat. She treated him as if he were her own, provided me with pictures on every visit. She went the extra mile to make sure Mr Cat was well taken care of. I definitely will be contacting her again if I go on a trip.”


“We had a last minute need for care over February break, so not an easy time to find someone. In came Baela to the rescue! Her schedule lined up with our kitten’s normal feeding times, too, so that was a bonus! She spent time playing with our little high energy guy each visit, and followed our directions perfectly. Thank you, Baela!”


“Rachel is a phenomenal pet sitter! My cat immediately took to her and absolutely loved spending time with her each time she visited. She sent plenty of pictures playing with my cat each visit and kept me in the loop consistently. Definitely rebooking with her again in the future!”

“Huge huge huge shout out to MacKenzie for watching my pups while I was out of town! I just moved up here and was a little worried about being away from the new place/state and leaving the dogs up here in the meantime. However, MacKenzie just seemed trustworthy, cool, and kind, and I was right! Not only did she want to make sure she did a good job and followed their schedules and everything to a T, she also just loved and cared about them instantly. What really sold MacKenzie as just being a rockstar was her willingness to work with my one dog who has major stranger danger and takes a bit to trust especially with females. MacKenzie did what she could and spent a lot of time focusing on his comfortability and building his trust with her while still ensuring my other dog got her attention and love as well. Throughout the visits, MacKenzie gave me numerous photos and videos as well as updates from all her visits. I am truly grateful to have had her help and her love and care for my animals while I was away. I will 100% be using MacKenzie from here on out for my animal’s care!”

“Jenine did a great job checking in on my cat. She kept me updated with pictures after every visit and gave my cat the love and attention she needed. I felt at ease knowing she was caring for my girl while I was away. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Dog sitting was my first job as a teenager. My mom actually gave me the idea to start because she never wanted to have a pet, so this was such a fun compromise! Since then I’ve dog sat for small, medium and large dogs! I myself am an active person and love to be active with a furry friend! It’s nice to have company on a walk run or even someone to explore new parks with! I work full time but my schedule is fairly flexible! I am a therapist and have ability to work from home at times as long as I am not in a session or scheduled to run group therapy! I am happy to stay at your home and care for your pet with the instructions you give! I am happy to walk, play, pet, feed and clean up after your dog.
“Priya was amazing and attentive to detail and to my pups! She gave them lots of love and affection and was extremely playful w them! They adored her! Will def be booking her again! 10/10”

Take it from someone who does not do well away from her fur babies, BOOK LAVINIA. She communicates well, asks all the right questions, loves on your kitties like they’re her own and truly took all of the anxiety I had about leaving them, away! She genuinely cares about animals, and it shows. Seeing dozens of pictures of my cats every day truly made my vacation and I can’t wait to book her again!

Ona did such an amazing job taking care of my 2 cats. She sent the best pictures and extremely detailed updates. She went above and beyond, even bringing in my mail/packages and followed all directions (and there were MANY directions) exactly as I asked. I will absolutely use her again :)

HUGE thank you to MacKenzie for doing this one-off semi last-minute visit with my pups and her continued patience with my one dog who is a little more nervous and difficult. She is a blessing and I will always be grateful for her love and care she gives my pups while I am away.

My first time using a pet sitter to visit my cat daily and Paige made the whole experience super easy and convenient! She followed all instructions, provided detailed daily updates and sent lots of photos of my cat. I would definitely work with her again as the experience was so much easier than packing everything for my cat to board and he was much happier at home. Thanks Paige!

Emalee once again did a fantastic job caring for my cats while I was away. She last minute was willing to increase the frequency of her visits to help apply some eye ointment when one of the kitties needed it right before I was going away. She did such an amazing job with them and I never have to worry about them while she is caring for them.

Percy was well taken care of and we received daily pictures as well as notes which helped to calm my son down as he was quite anxious about leaving our cat for a week. Darian also fed our axolotl and sent pics on him too! Would absolutely reach out to Darian for future cat visits if the need arises!

We had a last minute need for care over February break, so not an easy time to find someone. In came Baela to the rescue! Her schedule lined up with our kitten’s normal feeding times, too, so that was a bonus! She spent time playing with our little high energy guy each visit, and followed our directions perfectly. Thank you, Baela!

Saoirse came for a meet and greet and a 1 hour drop-in ahead of a planned longer stay. She was fantastic with my dog right off the bat, and very thorough when we went over Isla’s needs. She is super communicative and sent great pics, even during such a short stay. Isla had a great time hanging out with Saoirse, and we can’t wait to have her again!

Emma listened to, understood, and executed all of the directions for my cat, 🐈⬛ Milo. More importantly, she brought her caring spirit to her daily check-ins for feedings, litter sifting, and love-petting. And I appreciated the photos of Milo and his sweet face. I highly recommend Emma.
