“Very happy with the care of our baby 😁 Jay is really picky on who he takes medications from, and Jasimine was the exception. He was comfortable enough to trust her from the beginning (first time in 3 years since he has been comfortable with anyone right off the back!) Very pleased and happy with the care he received.”

I was confident I made the right choice after our meet and greet and seeing how much experience James has with dogs. He sent daily updates and lots of photos of Bella enjoying walks, play time in his large yard, companionship with his dog Xena and lots of snuggle time. James is really easy to work with and very responsive. It was such a relief to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing Bella was in good hands. I would definitely go back to James for boarding services again.”

I would definitely use them again!!”

“Aimee was so sweet and so good with updates when it came to Echo’s stay! I’ve always had issues with receiving regular updates and photos from sitters but Aimee was very communicative. I would love to have her watch Echo again for future travel plans!”
About: I first fell in love with cats when I was 14 years old and over the years I have come to appreciate the unique personality each feline brings. From curious kittens to wise senior cats, I provide gentle, attentive care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to create a calm and nurturing environment where every cat can truly thrive.
“Rowan was absolutely everything we were looking for and she definitely delivered!! We needed her to check in on our cat 2 days while we were away. She fed him, played with him using multiple methods and toys, gave him a ton of attention and mental stimulation and made sure to send us the cutest pictures ever! We highly recommend booking with her. You can depend on Rowan for high quality care!”

“I booked Ryan for a second set of visits with my cat Casey and he was excellent and Casey enjoyed having someone he knew. I felt reassured that Casey was not going to be stressed or afraid of having yet another stranger in his house. The pictures Ryan sent made it quite clear that Casey was very comfortable with him and was being well taken care of.”
“Lanese was extremely sweet and patient with our very shy elderly kitty. We got great daily updates with a photo. Although our kitty is shy and often difficult to locate, Lanese was sure to make a connection and help her feel loved while pet sitting. I would definitely recommend this compassionate pet sitter!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Tiger! From the very beginning, she was attentive, gentle, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Tiger was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for when I returned — always the best sign. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet. Thank you so much, Emily!”
“Excellent service! My cat was in great shape and everything had been taken care of exactly according to instructions. I got detailed updates every day, with pictures, so I never had to worry about how he was doing. I would highly recommend Simone!”

“Naya is AMAZING! My husband and I have a long commute and needed someone to take care of our pup during the way while we're at work. 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! Our pup comes home every day happy and tired, and is excited to go back in the morning. Naya is so attentive, caring, and loving to our pup and we feel so lucky that we found her!”

About: Hello, I am here to make sure your fur baby is safe and comfortable while you are away. With 8+ years of experience I have learned that every furry friend is different. Different distractions, different tastes, different attitudes but one thing each furry friend can’t resist is love and attention. Some positive energy is all a friend needs to enjoy the company of a new friend. I will cater to our furry friends as needed and instructed by you. Maybe there is a medication time we need to fit in or even some training you guys are working on. I am more than happy to stay consistent with whatever is going on in the daily routine. I work with all ages and sizes. Dogs and cats are all welcome❤️ Pet care fits into my daily routine by being my daily routine haha. I work from home and I have a lot of extra time to provide love and attention. I am practically home 24/7 and thats the way I like it❤️ I am always available if your fur baby wants to tag along around the house. I have crates if a friend needs to be crated or separated in another room. Always keeping a friendly calm environment. I live in a 3 level home with a nice yard for some exercise. Also, the neighborhood has a nice trail for some walks.
“Jazmin took great care of Bella. She was very accommodating with a last minute schedule change. Bella had injured her leg previously and was still recovering, needing to be kept quiet during her stay. Jazmin was sensitive to this request and gave great feedback about her activity during the day. I'll definitely be booking again!”
“Liz and Jeffery were amazing sitters for my sweet Sadie. I was in the area for work and found them to watch my dog during the day. They went above and beyond to make sure that Sadie was comfortable and well taken care of while I was at work. They truly treated Sadie like she was part of their own family. Sadie was always so happy to go to doggy day care in the morning. If I am ever back in the area, I will definitely book with Liz and Jeffery for any type of care they provide.”
“Jaylen was absolutely great with Medusa. I received pictures and updates throughout her visit. By the second visit, I could tell how good of a time she had with him by how excited she was to see him when we pulled up.”
About: I’ve owned cats for 30+ years. I helped care for a family dog in my young adulthood for 4+ years. Our family just started dog sitting for friends when needed and all parties involved adjust well to bringing new pets temporarily into the home. Even though we do not have our own dog we love and enjoy dogs. We are flexible with the type, age and size of dog. My kids and I love going on walks and being out in our big back yard. Having a dog join us for these times just makes it even more enjoyable! We understand that a pet is a part of the family and therefore we will treat your pet like part of our family for the duration of their stay. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule is flexible and we are usually not out of the house for more than a couple hours at a time and this is just occasionally. We have an excellent yard that any dog would go crazy for. I have young kids who will love on and play with your dogs. I am happy to go by any instructions you give me on how best to care for your pet. I am flexible in my schedule. I am a stay at home mom. This allows me to be available for your pet and their needs. We will treat your pet like they are part of the family while they stay with us. My kids and I will engage with them throughout the day by playing outside/inside and going on walks.

About: Since I was a kid I've been the person neighbors, friends, and family have relied on to watch their fur babies of all shapes and sizes. From maintaing clean litter boxes to taking long walks around the neighborhood, spending time with fur babies of all ages is my passion. While the parents are not home, it is all snuggles and play time. I devote my full attention to keeping our furry friends entertained and happy until their parents return. **Please Understand That if I am Contacted Before 8AM or After 10PM, I will not be able to respond in a timely manner as I too enjoy sleep** I am currently going back to school online, so I'll be able to spend plenty of time hanging with the pups and kitties just goofing around and snuggling. In my client's home, I will be respectful of their property. I can ensure the pets are fed and provided fresh water. I will clean after the animals if there is an accident, and will help maintain tidy litterboxes. If the owner has a fenced in yard that they prefer for the dog to potty in, I will still go behind and bag the fresh poop.
