Izcali was fantastic! Super responsive, easy to communicate with, and followed instructions to the T. Our furbaby looked happy every check in photo dump and seemed very happy and content when we got home. I can tell she got lots of love and attention while we were away. I will absolutely recommend Izcali to others and will rebook again.

Catherine did an amazing job watching my babies while I was out of town. I am so glad I found her on here! It can be difficult finding someone trusted that is also good with your pets. Catherine came right in and immediately my two dogs took a liking to her. Thank you so much Catherine I’ll def be reaching out again soon!

Megan is so caring and responsible. Our Persian kitty is on a fairly regular feeding schedule, and Megan made sure to visit during the time frame we set out for her. We also appreciate that she properly locked up & set our security system to the right settings before leaving. We came home to full food bowls & a clean litter box. We also appreciate that she took the time to try to play with our cat and brush him.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and have experience with both dogs and cats. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and provide attentive care for their pets. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a student and my schedule is pretty flexible, so I can usually make time for walks, drop ins, or boarding during the week and weekends. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or just someone to hang out with, I’ve got you covered! I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to follow whatever routine your pet is used to, and I’ll always keep you updated so you have peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic puppies or gentle seniors. I have experience with basic training for young pets, helping reinforce good habits, and I’m patient and compassionate with older animals who may need extra support or mobility assistance. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind. I can work part time and spend as much time as needed with each pet. I love taking care of animals. Pet care is a part of my daily routine I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to accommodate different needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks and any specific instructions. I also keep the home tidy, provide updates (Pictures), and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. At the end of the day I want each pet that I meet to have a loving care experience and feel relaxed and well cared for at all times.

Becky took great care of our cat Reggie! She followed our care instructions and left the house in pristine condition. Reggie got lots of playtime during Becky’s visits. When we got home we could tell Reggie wasn’t stressed, so we know Becky made him feel safe and loved. We will definitely book her again.

Sharmily is an excellent sitter! She is very reliable and doesn’t skimp on the updates and photos. Communication and handing off keys was also super easy both times I booked with her! My cat likes her a lot and she is a huge comfort to both of us when I am out of town. I will continue to book Sharmily when I need kitty coverage in the future, and would recommend her services to any cat mom/dad!

Ashley is a gem — she is consistent, thorough, thoughtful and always eager to go the extra mile. She not only developed immediate rapport with my mean old cat, she also takes plenty of photos and was able to water some sprouts in our garden while we were away. If you can book her, you won’t regret it!
