“I am beyond satisfied and so pleased with Linda's care for my kitties while I was away. It can be so stressful for Pets (and Pet Parents), trying to make sure all is okay when out of town, especially when an older animal may need special care. Linda went above and beyond, was reliable, respectful and responsible (a huge snow storm didn't prevent her from visits) flexible-my plans changed due to a family issue, twice. Linda was calm and accommodating, which gave me such peace of mind. And my home was tidier than when I left! Most important- my cats are happy, apparently well fed and amused, and not traumatized by being away from their home or ignored. Linda's daily photos and "report card" was terrific! Thank you, Linda, for everything. Now my cats are back to ignoring me, I know they're probably waiting for Linda to come by...!”
“We tasked Larry with a last minute booking for our two kittens. He did amazing with them and followed all instructions. He was very respectful of our apartment as well. Will definitely book again!”
“Kimberly is very sweet and approachable. She was very patient with my very shy cats. While visiting them, Kimberly checked in with me by sending me videos and pictures of her visit. She took the time to play with my cats and give them one-on-one attention. I wanted to add that I made a mistake of booking incorrect dates for Kimberly's visit. She was very accommodating to my mistake and I really appreciate that. When I arrived home, my cats had food, water and their litter was clean. I am very happy with Kimberly.”
“Great first experience hiring a pet sitter! Michelle was attentive, thorough, and left us detailed updates every time she came by the feed our cats. We’ll definitely hire again!”
About: Ive always been around animals, both wild and domestic. I feel very fulfilled and passionate about working with animals, and understand their language quite well. Im happy to give exercise or comfort, whatever is needed. I can do some behavioral training as well. Im happy to adapt to whatever needs present themselves! I'm currently back at my parents house, waiting to join the Navy. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend it taking care of our furry friends! I have been traveling all over the country the past ten years, taking care of others pets and houses. This includes large lands, with chicken, goats, compost...the whole thing! I also have my own husky mix, and have kept her super happy and healthy. Ive also worked in behavioral health for years, and understand the approach that needs to be taken for both people and animals who have suffered from abuse.
“Lawrence was great! It was my first time using Rover, but they were very understanding and communicative. Our cats are shy, and they were great with respecting their boundaries. Their daily updates were thorough, and the pics always made us smile.”
“Ashlie did an awesome job taking care of my kitty! She kept his litter box and eating area clean and cared for him like he was her own cat. We loved the updates and adorable pictures and will definitely book with Ashlie again! Thank you for everything!!”
About: I've had dogs in my family for over 30 years and cats for over 10 years! Animals should be treated with kindness and love because that's what they give us. I understand the time and attention that new pets require as well as the gentle and caring touch that all pets deserve. I've always been my friend's dog sitter and own two cats of my own. I'm a teacher so I will be free for most of the summer during the week. I enjoy the outdoors so would love to take your dog for a walk and also care for your cat or dog indoors. I've never had a fish but would happily check in on those water babies as well! At this time, I am not able to board your cat or dog in my apartment as I have two cats of my own. Thanks.
“This was our first time working with Emily and her husband and they did a great job caring for our cat Ronnie. They were very communicative and responsive to any concerns that came up, and were able to pick up an additional visit last-minute when we got stuck out of town for an extra day. It makes a big difference knowing our cat is in good hands when we are far away, thank you so much!!”
“Daniel took excellent care of my cat! She is shy and will almost always hide when sitters visit, but when I'm back I can tell from her mood and behavior that she felt safe and comfortable. Thanks Daniel!!”
“Christina was great. She dropped in on our 2 cats while we were out of town. We have a sick older cat and we were nervous leaving and stressing him out but he did great with Christina. Very reliable, friendly and professional! Would definitely hire again! Thank you Christina!!”
“Book him now! He’s the best with my two kitties Luna and Stella. Takes amazing photos (seriously better than some of my own!). I can tell they are super happy with him! I come back and they are relaxed and content.”

I can always count on Kaitlyn to go above and beyond expectations. She made sure Kittie was well taken care of, gave get lots of attention, and even vacuums and cleans up the litter that falls out of the box without prompting. She does it on her own which days a lot. I fully trust her and feel confident my animals are taken care of and loved on when she's there!
