“This was the third time I booked Yadi for my 3 cats (2 with meds). I’m so happy I connected with her earlier this summer. She followed my detailed directions perfectly. She went above and beyond her duties - one of my cats regurgitated lots of food on a very large litter mat and she somehow emptied the litter that falls through the holes and cleaned the entire mat and left it on my screened in porch to dry. I highly recommend Yadi for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats (and geckos) since I was young. I fostered an old cat August 2024 too. I'm good with pets. I am currently a college student, but I've got some time to take care of some lovely pets. I'm free almost everyday, never Wednesday though. I have fenced in yard, it's decent sized. I also have two leopard gecko, and a dog (Diesel). He's about 16 years old. Old man.
“Grayce was awesome with my cats!! She replied quickly to messages and left detailed notes during visits letting me know how my cats were doing and how much attention they were basking in while we were away! I would definitely book with Grayce again :)”
“When my cat needed to be picked up from the pet hospital, Bonnie made it clear that the cat’s health was the most important thing, not exactly what the charge would be. She was caring and diligent, which is an excellent combination for this type of work. She cared deeply about my pet, and I recommend her unhesitatingly.”
“Colin always goes above and beyond when it comes to looking after the house! Most importantly, though, the cats love him, which is not a given with them - they tend to be shy around new people. I would definitely recommend Colin, and my husband and I plan to rebook in the future!”
“Nicole went above and beyond caring for our five cats, even making it out during snowstorms. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our pets. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands.”
“Lyndsey went above and beyond for our cats! She provided great updates and photos, was very communicative and proactive about any issues/potential concerns, and came through for us when our return plans were impacted by weather. We feel we left our kitties in the best hands with her and I would not hesitate to rebook with her/recommend her to others.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful, kind, reliable, and very responsive. She was available on short notice, which was a huge help for us. She took great care of not only our cat, Nuggets, but also our 4 chickens! We felt completely at ease knowing our babies were in such good hands. We were so happy with her care that we have already hired her again for our next vacation. Highly recommend!”
“Our pets seemed to really respond well to Amy, and her updates gave us a lot of peace of mind during our vacation. We will definitely be seeking her services for our next vacation!”
“Mariah did such an amazing job with my 2 kitties while I was away on vacation!! She made sure plenty of treats, food, attention and brushes were given when she visited. My boys love to be around people, so it’s always hard to leave them, but with Mariah’s daily visits they seemed very happy? she even made the time to visit on a holiday!!! Thank you so much Mariah!! Moose, Bruce and I truly appreciate you and will definitely rehire if needed!”
“We decided at the last minute to go away for the weekend and had no dog sitter. Emily was available that day to meet our pups and then take care of them for the weekend! We received pictures and updates from every visit and came home to happy healthy pets. Thanks Emily!”
About: I have been pet sitting for many years now. Started out as helping out family and friends in high school and college and has evolved to much more over the years. I also have 8 years of experience owning my own dogs. I have cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, cats, lizards, and turtles. I am comfortable with transporting pets to vet or grooming appointments, bathing, brushing, and brushing teeth for dogs, feeding, giving topical and oral medication, walking, playing, picking up after, cleaning litter boxes. I am genuinely happiest when I am with animals so getting to spend time with your fur babies would be my absolute pleasure! I will treat your pets as my own while they are in my care and I will always make sure they are kept happy and safe. I work a 9-5 Monday - Friday with a hybrid schedule. I typically work from home Wednesday and Fridays. I am available for daycare bookings on my WFH days, overnight bookings any time and walks/drop-ins in the evenings & weekends. For overnight bookings during the week, on my in-office days, my brother is available to check in on the pups at home and give them mid-day bathroom breaks and some company. I have a new fence being put in for the yard at the moment and in the meantime, I have extra long leashes so the pups can still safely explore and get some exercise in the yard. I have 2 pups of my own to keep your pet(s) company and have lots of playtime with. I have plenty of space throughout the house to keep dogs separated while I am not home and have pet cameras to keep my eye on them! I also have 2 large crates and 1 small crate if needed. I prefer to sit for dogs that are crate trained to ensure extra safety but this can be discussed during the meet and greet! My 65lb male dog does not always enjoy other males that are larger than himself in the house but we can still have a meet and greet to check, with this in mind! I always suggest sending your dog for an overnight stay with their doggy bed/favorite blanket and a favorite toy to make them the most comfortable!
About: I’ve always had a dog since I was a child. Daily walks and bathroom breaks are all routine. I trained my last pup to sit and give his paw, he could even switch to left paw :) I only take care of one dog at a time to keep things less stressful and so your pup can get all the attention they deserve. I’m currently the caretaker of my family’s property while they’re away on vacation. They brought our dog, Duke, with them, so I have the house to myself with a ton of free time. I’m available 24/7 for you and your pets. I have a partially fenced yard with 1 acre of land. There’s plenty of space to walk, play, or use the bathroom. There’s an indoor pool for any swimmers and it’s in a quiet neighborhood. I live on a dead end, so there is no through traffic.
