Jess was a fantastic sitter! Very communicative and flexible when it came to coordinating the key/fob pickup, and the girls got lots of TLC during her drop-in visits. I will definitely rebook with her next time I go out of town!

Katarina is amazing , tentative, and everything Sevyn needs. I can’t express how much I value her time, consistency, trust and thoughtfulness weekly. She has been providing excellent care for Sevyn since she was 8 weeks. Here we are now 7-months and Katarina has never disappointed, flexible, accommodating, and exudes care. Sevyn is always, smiling in her pictures with Katarina. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter.

About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life and they are so dear to me. My family has had multiple cats at all times and a dog and caring for them has always been a joy. This has included several very senior cats over the years (16+ years old!). I am experienced in tending to cat litter boxes, food, water, and play time. I also have experience giving medication orally and topically for cats. I am also experienced in walking dogs and providing food, water, and oral medications. I am a pretty active person, so if your dog needs longer walks I can easily accommodate them! I am a student working on my own schedule, so I am flexible with my availability. Mornings are especially good for pet sitting - I love starting the day with pets. As a cat mom I always want pictures, so I will keep you updated through photos and text. I am also happy to address any incidental messes in the house while I’m looking after your pet.

Lauren took wonderful care of our two cats, including our 17-year-old tabby who had a few issues to keep an eye out for. She sent us very helpful video reports and overall kept us well informed. Communication was also great. All in all, a very positive experience!

About: I have grown up with dogs and adopted cats as an adult. I have dog sat for my family (Golden named Goose). I have also watched my roommates dog and two cats, on a regular basis. I know I can’t get my own (dog) for a few more years, so I’d love to take care of yours!! My wife is also a dog and kitty lover, so if more time is needed around the pet she can help when needed! M-F: I work in the office (8am-4p) as a GIS Analyst. I'm off Saturday and Sunday. I don’t mind watching during the week, as long as they can be left for 8 hours. You can also get help from my wife (free of charge), she only works Mon/Tues right now, so there could be more drop-ins later in the week, if necessary. I will make sure they are fed, taken out and walked. I don’t mind having them sleep with me or putting them in a kennel, if needed.

Eric took excellent care of our cats while we were away! He spent quite a bit of time with them and made sure our cat who needed medicine took it again after she had a bad tummy and threw it up the first time. Definitely a sweetheart, would have him look after them again. <3

About: Hello, my name’s Alexa! I have six years of experience looking after and working with animals. I started with helping with my friends’ pets before moving to the apps care/wag. I’ve worked with plenty of cats, puppies, elderly dogs, high energy/reactive dogs and plenty others. I’ve administered oral and injectable medications to both dogs and cats and even a lizard. I’m detail oriented and focused, so I’ll follow your directions thoroughly and with so much love given to your critters. I’d love to be considered for your pet-sitting needs! I currently work part time as a bartender, so i’m around most mornings and afternoons! I’m not home too late from my job most nights. When i’m in a client’s home, I try to make the animals as comfortable with me as possible. I don’t make a lot of noise and I stick to their schedule as much as I can.

Maia is definitely my cats' favorite pet sitter. It's clear from her pics and updates that she really got to know them. Usually they act out a little while we're away, and there was none of that. I can tell they were very happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely want to work with Maia again.

Rachel took great care of our cat while we were away. She visited exactly as scheduled, made sure our cat was fed, and spent time playing with her during each visit. She kept us updated after every visit with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Rachel is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We would happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. You can go away with peace of mind that your cat is well looked after.
