Top rated Thrift cat sitters

“Amanda is absolutely the best. She goes above and beyond. She took great care of my girls and was a comfort to my sweet Molly in her last days. Amanda is a wonderful and caring person. I highly recommend her.”


“Steven was very kind! I was in a bind, and he came right away late at night to meet my pets and was more than happy to help me out! My puppy warmed up to him very quickly, but my cat doesn’t take well to strangers (although, we did catch her purring while he was holding her). I can tell that he really cares for animals. I would definitely use him again in the future and I highly recommend his services!”

“Anna Marie frequently checked in with me on my vacation to update me on Mochi, and sent tons of pictures!! She showed up on time every day and took amazing care of her, I’m incredibly thankful for all of Anna Marie’s help. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for someone caring, attentive, and professional to take care of your pets!”


“This is the 2 time I’ve had Krystin watch my cat and I’m extremely grateful for her! Super attentive to his needs, very communicative, and adaptable. I highly recommend!”


“Can't recommend Autumn enough! From the very start, she was attentive and sweet with our cats and prioritized their comfort and needs. She's responsive and clearly has a lot of experience cat-sitting, based on her communication and organization. I felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of our cats while we were away, and will absolutely hire her again the next time we need a sitter.”


“Aiyana is an amazing human and sitter!! They checked in every day, were super attentive and responsive, and took amazing care of our kitty. Our kitty was diagnosed with a couple of minor health issues right before Aiyana was supposed to be staying with her, and Aiyana seamlessly adapted the vet's regimens into her care. We 10/10 recommend Aiyana for your house/cat sitting needs!!”


“Max did a great job taking care of my kitties. They are indoor/outdoor and he was a good sport about taking them outside and climbing through the brush in my backyard with them.”


“Loved having Aja as our pet sitter! She is so nicely and communication with us was exceptional. She even went above and was willing to help us out and come back to our home after a visit when a friend accidentally locked our cat in a room. Can’t wait to use Aja again!”



“Corissa did a great job taking care of my 2 cats while I was away. She visited exactly as scheduled and shared updates each time. I highly recommend her and will hire again for sure!”


“Jasmine has been a fantastic pet sitter! She’s always so loving and affectionate with our cats, and for our recent trip when we had to start one of our cats on a new medication not long before we left, she was super accommodating about picking up the extra work and even offered to stay at ours to make it easier to give our cat his medication. Would definitely recommend her to anyone ❤️”


About: I love animals so much, I'm devoting my career to taking care of them! I want your friend(s) to feel happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away; I will do anything and everything to help them feel that way! I have a passion for understanding animals in a way that makes them feel heard! I think of them more as friends or companions rather than pets :) Experience: I’ve taken care of dogs of various breeds since I was 12. When their own family was too busy to trim their nails, brush out their matted fur, or give them a bath, I would do it! I’ve had multiple senior dogs + young dogs with health complications that I took care of until they passed away. I am in the Air National Guard, so I have mandatory drill weekends; but I have marked those dates as unavailable on my calendar, so that should not pose a problem. Currently not in any classes, so I have nothing but free time! I will be completely and absolutely available to play with, walk, feed and be friendly company for your furry (or maybe hairless) friends! Sometimes I leave the house to get meals, usually only 1-3 hours at a time. I will fulfill all of your furry friends’ needs and wants! I am good at following instructions - so if you could please leave instructions on the daily care you would like me to provide, what your pets like/dislike, feeding/potty schedules, etc. on paper or through text, I would highly appreciate that! I am also experienced in reading dog and cat body language. If they have boundaries: no touching, no fast movements, don't like being pet in certain places -- I am skilled at reading and respecting those boundaries. If your pet does have boundaries like these, it's much better to let me know in advance though!

“Meeka was fantastic with our kitties! She even befriended our really shy kitty super quickly - it was impressive! Would definitely recommend her and will be requesting her check ins again 😊”


About: I will follow your pup's usual schedule for walks, meals, and bedtime snuggles to make their stay feel just like home. I have a little experience with training my own puppy. I work shifts so I'm off certain days of the week and get every other Friday-Sunday off. My schedule is very predictable and I keep a consistent routine with my fur baby. I also have family members living with me that likes to help out with pet care. Fenced yard is currently underway so once that's established, the fur babies can run around freely! I have a mini poodle mix to keep company and she's very friendly towards other dogs and people.

“Kalar is AMAZING! We have two 9 year old cats, Tux & Skittles. Tux has diabetes and needs insulin injections twice a day. This was our first time using a paid pet sitter. The first time the cats were cared for by a stranger. Kalar was the absolute BEST choice. Tux is also VERY SPICY. She does not like to be handled by anyone especially strangers. Kalar was so calm and so patient with her. He was also prepared. He brought a bite proof glove. Tux was very stubborn. She hid, scratched hissed and bit. I was concerned that he wouldn't be able to give the injection. But he did it each an every time. He was so gentle and patient. Eventually she stopped resisting. She was still not happy about it but she allowed it. She went from hiding hours after he left to coming out within 10 min after he left. Kalar built TRUST. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kalar to anyone. He will care for your pets like his own. He is so easy to work with and just the sweetest person. We will definitely be using him again.”


About: I’ve been a proud fur (and shell!) mom for over nine years, caring for my dog, cat, and turtle. Over the years, I’ve learned the importance of providing not just food and walks, but also patience, love, and attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic playtime, calm cuddles, or making sure a pet feels safe while their family is away, I treat every animal like my own. From daily care routines to special needs, I’m dedicated to keeping tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and shells happy. Pet care is already a natural part of my day-to-day life. As a long-time pet parent, my mornings and evenings include feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, and cuddles with my own pets. I’m used to structuring my schedule around animals’ needs, making sure they get attention, exercise, and comfort at consistent times. Weekly, I handle grooming, litter changes, enrichment activities, and any special care routines. Because caring for animals is something I do every day, welcoming your pets into my schedule feels like a seamless extension of my normal life — and a joy I truly look forward to. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home for my pets. They have free range throughout the house during the day, with plenty of room to explore and relax. My fenced-in front yard is perfect for supervised outdoor time, and my large backyard offers additional space for play. My dog is crate-trained but prefers his cozy space in our laundry room area in the basement, where I keep the crate open and the area gated for his comfort and safety at night. I make sure all pets have a clean, secure environment, regular exercise, and plenty of affection every day.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, I am able to keep an eye on your dog throughout the day, and make sure they have all the love and affection they need. Feel at ease with updates and communication to allow you to be able to enjoy your time away and know that your fur baby is in loving hands. I work in IT and work a 5-5-4-4 schedule so on some given weeks and weekends I have 4 to 5 days off in a row free and am flexible in taking care of your furry friends. My goal is to provide service where I come to you and take care of your loving pet in house, take them for walks or play with them and be there best friend I have had over 12 cats and 8 dogs in my life time so far so I have a good knowledge of dogs and currently have my Bella and Coco
