“Angela was amazing with my cat, Marley! She sent me daily updates and photos, and I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I came home to a relaxed, and content kitty. I’ll definitely book her again—highly recommend!”
“Misty did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She was available for a last minute holiday booking and worked around my schedule to come over to meet my cats. She was super communicative during her visits and sent adorable photos of my cats. She took great care of my pets and my home. I'll definitely rebook and recommend Misty to other pet parents.”
“Samantha was a treat. Our cats warmed up very quickly. She followed our rules of the house, even the temporary rules for neuter recovery. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures and videos.”
“Ariana took care of our 17 year old cat for over 3 weeks while we were away. We are relatively new to this area and were a little reluctant to let someone we didn't know visit our house and take care of our cat. We feel very lucky for finding Ariana. She did a wonderful job taking care of Dashy and communicating with us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter.”
“Judy is incredible! She took such great care of my cats and made me feel at ease while on a long vacation. Judy went out of her way to update me on the cats and went above and beyond in every way. Thank you Judy!”
“Connie is a top notch sitter who really loves all animals. I exclusively try to book Connie when I am away and I need someone to take care of my cat. It takes a lot to get my cat moving and playing but Connie has a magical way to get my cat moving and grooving each time she visits her. My cat is always happy and content when I return after a few days. Connie is affectionate, kind, and will go the extra mile to respect your home and accommodate your fur baby. She also takes amazing photos of your pet too. I will definitely be booking her again and again. Please consider her as a top choice for any type of pet you have. I promise she will not disappoint!”
“Cindy was amazing! One of my cats is very shy with people and during her time she was able to get close and friendly with her. She updated me on the progress with them every day with cute pictures. Very thoughtful and is very flexible!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I love animals. I find it an honor for someone to trust me with their furry friends. I work as a free lancer so I’m available most days from 8am-6pm. I can stay the night if needed and am happy to sit over the weekend. When visiting a clients home I make sure that I do what I came there to do and not too much more! I make sure to clean up after pets and leave the way I found it.
“Sheila was fantastic, taking wonderful care of our sweet dogs while we went away to visit family. She arrived promptly and shared photos of each visit so we knew that they were happy and safe! We received a few packages while away and she brought even a really heavy one inside for us!!”
“Dominique was amazing with my 2 cats during all her visits! She responded quickly to messages and went above and beyond to care for my pets. I definitely recommend Dominique to anyone!”

“Audrey took such wonderful, loving care of my cat. It took a few days for my cat to warm up to her, but once she did she couldn’t get enough of Audrey. I would definitely book Audrey again.”
About: Welcome , we care for your dogs like family! My love of dogs come from growing up with more than 5 dogs at a time in my childhood home back in the Philippines. So, I am used to having and being around multiple dogs at a time. Your pets would be in a loving and caring home where we treat your pets as part of the family. I’m currently working from home. I take my dog on long walks during my lunch break and we would love some company during the day and on our walks. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I live across a dog park and a community park where I take my dog to play with her favorite ball and to run around.
About: Ive loved animals my whole life. I've volunteered in two animal shelters working with all animals and have worked in dog daycare. I currently still volunteer in one of those shelters. I also have two cats at home. Working with animals has always been my dream and I hope to take care if your pets to make sure they are happy. While I do not own a dog myself, I enjoy being around them and spending whatever time that I can work them. Your dogs, cats, or any other pet will be very well taken care if and loved while on my care. Happy to help you out when you need it. While i'm a very shy person, I would be happy to speak to you. I have previously worked for two dog daycares. I have volunteered in a shelter with many animals and I am now a pet sitter :) I do not have a fenced yard so they would be brought back inside if in my home or owners home. Whatever is needed for them

Haley took wonderful care of our two kitties, Miami and Virginia, through drop-in visits. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly caring, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Thank you, Haley, for taking great care of them. We would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to work with her again.
