“I'm so lucky that I found Amanda! She takes such good care of my sweet cat Nellie and really treats her as though she were her own. I can really relax when I go away, knowing Nellie is in such a good pair of hands!”


“Love love love ! Jess was amazing with my baby :) She provided descriptions and photos from their night :) I felt safe with Jess and will be using her immediately :) Thank you !”


“I recently had the pleasure of having Niki take care of my two senior cats for the past two weeks, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! One of my cats, Nana, has kidney failure and requires medication and fluid injections. Niki's professional experience made all the difference in our situation. What impressed me most was Niki's ability to administer Nana's fluid injections on her own, which usually takes two of us(my husband and me). She not only handled it with ease but also took the time to teach my husband how to do it himself. The results were amazing! We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Niki and will definitely continue to work with her in the future. Thank you so much, Niki, for your exceptional care and support!”


“Sydney was great! She went above and beyond for my pups. She sent pictures and left very detailed updates. I had a peace of mind while being away b/c she took such great care of them. Will definitely book again!”


“I was staying in an Abnb so my dog was highly anxious being in a new place. Aivy was wonderful dropping in on him for a few visits over a long weekend. Photos and updates for every visit was great! Won’t hesitate to have Aivy again the next time we visit!”


“Genevieve did absolutely amazing! Our puppy is still learning and she did amazing with all the instructions I gave her. I was really nervous before the visit due to our baby , but after seeing the pictures and notes she left, I felt so much more at ease. She definitely will be our go to person going forward!”


“Absolutely amazing. We hope Emma will be available furever! She really went above and beyond for us and helped us feel at ease while we were away from our pets and our plants and our lives. We could not be happier with the help Emma provided”


“Sofia was great! Our cats immediately liked her which made us feel comfortable. She sent great pictures and videos during check ins and gave proactive updates. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi there! I’m a nurse, dog mom, and animal lover who knows how much your pets mean to you. I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and showered with love while you’re away. I’m a lifelong animal lover with lots of experience caring for all kinds of pets from dogs, cats, and horses to chickens, peacocks, fish, hamsters, and even lizards! 🐶🐴🐓 I’ve been riding and caring for horses since I was little and have owned and helped take care of countless animals since. Today, I live with my two sweet pups, Haylee and Luna, and love spending my days nurturing and playing with them. I offer reliable and loving drop-in visits and dog walks, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Here’s what sets me apart: 🩺 I’m a nurse, so I’m confident administering medications and recognizing health concerns, perfect for senior pets or those with medical needs. 🐕🦺 I’ve helped with leash training and basic behavioral support for friends and family, and I volunteered at animals shelters all my life. 🐾 I volunteer at a therapeutic riding center for children with disabilities, so patience and compassion are second nature to me. 🧼 Clean, dependable, and respectful of your space and your pet's routine. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or just a cuddle buddy while you're away, I’m here to help! Let’s chat — I’d love to meet you and your furry family! I am open on weekends and holidays for walks and visits all day. I work 8-4 Monday-Friday, so I could work out early mornings and later evening visits during the week depending on availability and location. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I bring a calm, caring energy to every visit and make sure each pet feels secure and loved. With a background in nursing, I’m confident handling medications, senior pet needs, and health concerns with extra attention and care. I follow your instructions closely and treat your pet like they’re my own—because they deserve nothing less. I’m reliable, gentle, and always happy to provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Deepika and her daughter Nyla are the best sitters you can ask for. My cat was so happy spending time with Nyla, and getting all the gentle care. She would drop in to feed my cat before school and then spend long duration in the evening to ease him out of his boredom. They even waited for him to finish his bowl, made sure he has enough fresh water and made his play time as he likes it the best. They combed him regularly after his meals and gave him enough pets and belly rubs to feel home. She regularly shared pictures and video of my baby with me after each and every visit. Informed me about the smallest of details, which made my travel much easier as I wasn’t worried about him back home alone. On top of everything, Nyla took great care of my plants as well- everything looked healthy and alive. She kept the area clean and made sure everything is in place. I couldn’t ask for more.”


“Nana and Scott were excellent! They were terrific with Bella who had a great time with them. They provided updates during their visits so I always knew how Bella was doing.”


About: I have four pets of my own! Mikey, my 9 year old Pitbull who recently went blind, Bella my 10 year old Husky, Teddy my Shih Tzu who is 3 and keeps the other pups young, and Leo my 11 year old easygoing tortoise :) I’m very comfortable with a wide range of needs, temperaments, and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and cared for and to give you total peace of mind while you’re away! I am currently available full time while I'm on the job hunt so I am flexible to you and your pets needs, feel free to reach out and let me know what you need! Since I have a full house, I am unable to care for other pets in my own home, but when I am in yours I am very mindful of sticking to what you and your pets are comfortable with and what is in their routine!


“Laurinda has quickly become our go-to cat sitter! She is thoughtful and an excellent communicator. She is detail oriented and has an easy kindness for pets. My cat warmed up to her so quickly on her meet and greet. Laurinda is empathetic and helpful as she supported me navigating a small scare when my cat ate a string. She provided vet recommendations and quick tips to look out for. I’m so grateful to have found Laurinda and I highly recommended her!”


About: I have always had a dog ever since I was a kid. I started walking dogs for my elderly neighbors and so I thought why not help out other pet parents! I work remotely and have flexibility throughout the day (unless I have a meeting scheduled). I’m here to provide lots of head scratches and cuddles for your pup! I work remotely. If I have enough heads up, I am very flexible with my times. If I have a conflict, I will let you know. I will respect your home as it is my own. I’ll follow all of your instructions that you provide me and I’ll make sure to give you pup lots of love and attention.

About: I have lived with pets my whole life and am comfortable walking them, playing with them, feeding them, cleaning up after them, and administering medication. I do my best to make each pet I work with feel comfortable by reading their preferred level of interaction as well as paying close attention to the details provided by the owners. I currently build my own schedule, so I am able to care for your pet with home visits or walks anytime within my available hours. When I visit your home, I will follow any instructions carefully and to a T. I slowly introduce myself to the pet and then follow the pets behavioral cues along with any specific instructions to interact with your pet. Once we have a feel for each other, I will perform any specified task and leave your pet safe and secure until you get home.

Khaleynie M.
“Khaleynie is one of the most reliable and loving pet caregivers I know. I’ve witnessed firsthand the care and compassion she gives not only to her own three rescue pets—each with unique sizes, temperaments, and personalities—but also to foster animals. One of her dogs was even saved directly from the streets, which speaks to her deep commitment to animal welfare. She is incredibly patient, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable about animal care. Whether in her personal life or her career, she brings the same passion and dedication to everything she does. Khaleynie is known to go above and beyond. If I ever needed someone to care for my own pets, she would be—and already is—my first choice.”
