3. Emily C.
“Perfect, thank you!”
4. David T.
“David did a fantastic job watching our dog and two cats while we were away! Photo/video updates showed our dog got plenty of exercise outside and the cats' litter boxes were clean when we returned. We really appreciated David's level of communication and were confident while we were away that our pets were in good hands. Thanks again!”

6. Katie K.
“Katie was an amazing and attentive sitter for our menagerie of animals. She provided excellent communication while we were gone and we came home to our happy, relaxed critters. We would use her again without hesitation! Thanks Katie!”
7. Mia D.
“Mia was excellent! She kept in great communication, sent lots of photos, and my dogs really liked her. When I came home, everything looked great, no messes. I noticed she even cleaned up the kibble cat food my cat's sprinkled around while I was gone (they do this to protest my leaving 🤣). I would definitely recommend Mia for sitting services.”
8. Miesha B.
“Miesha gave constant updates and daily pictures on how my cats were doing. She tried to spend as much time with each as possible even the shy one who doesn't like new things. She took time to learn about each cat and their routines. Will definitely have Miesha visit my cats next time I go on a trip.”

10. Jules S.
“Jules was great! Made the cats very comfortable and even our scaredy-cat princess came out from under the couch for games eventually. Loads of pictures and details from each visit. Thanks Jules!”
11. Claire B.
“I can't recommend Claire enough! She did an outstanding job caring for my cat while I was away. Every day, she sent me thoughtful updates and tons of adorable pictures, so I always knew how he was doing. Her communication was top-notch, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Claire is incredibly responsible and reliable—she went above and beyond to make sure my cat was happy and comfortable. I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking such great care of him. Highly recommend Claire for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
12. Leslie M.
“Leslie is incredibly warm, calm, and accommodating! My dog is reactive, and can be scary to someone when they first meet. It usually takes her anywhere from 5 - 20 minutes to relax and stop seeing the person as a threat. With Leslie, though, it was nearly instantaneous: with a "Hi, Josie!" and a few words in a soft voice, Jo immediately melted and ceased the reactive behavior. It was wonderful and refreshing to see this, and I immediately felt safe leaving Josie with Leslie. I would HIGHLY recommend Leslie, especially for nervous or anxious dogs, because she is just a natural with dogs and seems to put them at ease right away. On top of that, she was very punctual, kind, and easy to work with. Great communication. She's a real gem!”
13. Heather S.
“Heather took perfect care of our cats, plants, and fish. She was available on short notice and very attentive to our animals needs, including our special needs blind kitty and our cancer patient who takes meds daily. It was clear she really cared about taking care of our babes. We would absolutely book with Heather again!”
14. Mariah B.
“Mariah watched my dog and senior cat many times when I traveled for work. She was fantastic - my dog loved her and was so well cared for. She made sure to give him lots of exercise and attention! Mariah also cared for my elderly cat and was gentle and kind to her. She is very communicative and provided plenty of updates and photos. I absolutely trust Mariah with my pets.”
15. Seda B.
“I could not ask for a better pet sitter, Seda took great care of my dog, with frequent pictures and videos and detailed reports of how he was doing during the visit. (She also took one of my now favorite pictures of my pretty boy!) I will be asking Seda to look after my dog next time I go out of town!”
16. Clareese P.
“Clareese was so kind and attentive. She took great care of my cat and also kept me informed the whole time I was away. I was not worried at all. She was a perfect fit for our needs, and I definitely will be rebooking her!”
17. Haley R.
“Hayley was great. She was fast to reply to messages and sent updates with pictures :)”
18. Keilah V.
“Keilah is a great pet sitter! I have an extremely shy and anxious cat and somehow she got him to come out and play a little and even got a photo of him giving her a kiss! I was shocked! I recommend her for any pet needs and will absolutely be going back to her.”
19. Shannon P.
“Shannon would be a great pet sitter or dog walker. She's genuinely the kindest and most loving person I know. She has two cats of her own that she adores and gives a happy, healthy, and safe life. She's great with dogs. Her family has a dog and she always gives him love and attention. She's shown how loving and supportive she is with my most recent dog. If I needed a sitter or walker, Shannon would be who I trust the most. She's honest, reliable, smart, compassionate, and so much more. I can't recommend her enough.”
20. Kristi L.
About: ***I HAVE MOVED & MY PROFILE SHOULD UPDATE TO THE ZIP CODE (15218)*** I've been watching family, friends and neighbors dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and horses for over 20 years. I started taking care of fur babies full time in 2019 and have absolutely loved all the pups and parents I've been lucky enough to meet and keep relationships with. I do my best to help with any last minute vacation plans go more smoothly. I only watch ONE DOG in my home at a time (unless they live together) as I can monitor their food intake, their stools and give them one on one attention they love so much. That rule also includes any Meet and Greets, I will only schedule them on days I don't have a doggy guest. I've learned that it's way too much stress for all parties. I allow them on my furniture and will adjust to the specific dogs routine or training as directed. I made a special dog tag that says "Call my pet sitter Kristi if found" w/ my phone #. I put this on every dog I watch just in case you have an escape artist. I live alone in a duplex home on the main floor (my entrance is in backyard) with a patio and partially fenced in back yard (I will be putting a gate so it's fully fenced). I have a Maine Coon cat (Hashbrown) that is very chill and won't chase or try and play with your pup. If either her or your pup is uncomfortable with the other then Hashbrown can be moved to a separate area. I do this full time and try to make any appointments when I don't have a fur baby here. They will be spoiled and loved like my own while they're here. I have a fenced yard for quick early morning potties then typically 2 long walks a day. I send pics/video at least 2x/day so you know you fur baby is happy.
