Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.”

Indi gets her own vacation when she stays here and we love knowing that our she gets to enjoy herself, too! Between Carlie's loving and kind family, the huge bonus yard, and Carlie's attention and ability to continue medicine (she even notices any behavioral changes!), we just know we've made the right choice.

Highly recommend.”

“Megan had great communication during the booking experience and accommodated our need to change the date of the Meet and Greet. She was very friendly and professional when she came over to meet us and Frank. She double checked and confirmed all information. She sent us pictures during her time watching Frank. She made sure to play with Frank in front of the PetCam so we could see him being cute. He was healthy and content when we returned home. We would be happy to ask Megan to watch Frank again in the future!”
“Cassie K was absolutely amazing! She cared for our cat Tessa for a full week and went above and beyond—feeding, tending to her litter box , giving porch time, and even wiping Tessa’s little drippy eye. She sent daily photos, videos, and even a fun cartoon picture, which gave us so much peace of mind. On her last day, she surprised us with a compilation video of Tessa from the week! Cassie also fed our outdoor critters, watered plants, emptied the pool filter, and brought in a package. She was always on time, reliable, and left everything perfect. We couldn’t have asked for better care—We highly recommend Cassie K!”
“Debra has been coming for drop-in visits at my house for 2 weeks to take care of my sweet pup. She always spends the time taking great care of him. I hope to continue to use Debra on a long term basis when I need help caring for my pup. Highly recommend!!”
“Kayla was amazing! Always on time and made sure our cats were taken care off. Felt really comfortable leaving them in her care while my fiancé and I were cruising. Took plenty of photos and pets. Would definitely book with her in the future!”
About: I definitely have more experience with dogs, but I have lived with/taken care of cats before. I have been tasked with feeding/cleaning litter box/medicating, and making sure the well being of the cat is at its best, and if not I am keen to find the issue!
“This is the 2nd booking Shannon has come to look in on our cats while we’re away, our cats absolutely love her. We have one kitty that is scared of everyone except for my husband and i, even he loves when Shannon visits. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our babies when we’re not home.”
“Casey did a fantastic job with our diabetic cat Sally! She was super communicative, right on time (sally is on a strict eating/insulin schedule). We will definitely book her again for any other upcoming trips!”
About: I've owned and have cared for animals since I was a child. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and small creatures of every age and size! Currently, I own a few animals and volunteer with a local rescue. I work part time in healthcare, but I have 4 free days a week as well as most afternoons. I also care for my own animals every day. I care for my two cats by giving them the love, attention, and treats they deserve. They have tons of toys, scratch pads, and free range of our home. We also had a sheltie for years, which had special medical needs that we handled. He was pampered like a prince! Our lizard is very easy, he likes to sleep all day under his heating lamp.
“Emily watched our 3 cats and turtle while we were on vacation. She was great with our fur babies and I felt like they were in great hands. She updated me daily about any issues and the kitties seemed to love her. Will use her again in the future.”
“Mackenzie was great! She connected with our cats so well and captured their personalities in daily update photos. Mackenzie is very responsive and reliable and we will be reaching out to her again. Thanks Mackenzie!!”

Before we found Naya, we were really concerned about leaving him somewhere else for so long during the day. But we really lucked out in finding Naya! Naya has her own 2 dogs and a huge backyard that our pup loves to play in! She takes him for walks, teaches him tricks, and helps us so much by training with him as well!

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats, including those with medication needs and I've managed to make connections with pets that had apparently never warmed up to sitters. My internal alarm clock has me awake before 7 on most mornings and I immediately feed my own cats Flower and Eevee and my dog Sprocket. After this my day is mostly open to fulfill your pets needs! I I always try to make the pet feel comfortable with me just existing in their space before care begins, I've found that the pets seeing me with their owner is a good way to start off establishing trust. I do my best to adjust myself and my activities to the pet's routine and their needs so that my presence is a minimal disruption.
