As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.
“Lorraine was a blessing! She took excellent care of my baby girl. She was very kind and listened to all my neurotic instructions. She treated my girl like her own and gave her lots of love. As per my request, I got daily updates and lots of pictures. My Lucy loved staying at her house with her new BFF Koko (Lorraine's dog). I am so happy to have found my new permanent sitter!”

“Winnie's stay with Rosa could not have gone any better. We were a little apprehensive at first because we were afraid Winnie wouldn't feel comfortable, but our worries proved to be just that....merely worries. Rosa was very considerate to Winnie's needs and her feelings. She was also very considerate with us by sending us pictures multiple times a day as well as keeping an open line of constant communication. She was very comforting as well as very professional. We really could not have asked for a better family to watch our Winnie. We would recommend them to anyone.”

About: I've grown up around cats of all kinds: house cats, feral, barn cats, you name it. I've even raised two litters of bottle babies. My cats are named Manson and Salem. Manson has been with me for over 10 years and is the other half of my soul (sorry to my husband). Salem is a certified daddy's girl and is still a little feral. Weather your feline wants unlimited chin scratches or zero eye contact with a 10 foot social distance, im happy to be there for them!

About: Cats are such energetic, lovable, and curious companions! I’ve had them in my life since I was young, and I never get tired of seeing their unique personalities shine. I truly enjoy caring for them. Whether it’s cuddling, playing, feeding or simply keeping them company. I have experience giving medicine when needed and always do my best to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I've had my own dog for 11 years and I've pet sat for many friends/family. No dog is too big or too small. I have no issue with particular instructions, and will follow any rules you have in place for your dog I work full time on 1st shift, Monday to Friday, so I will be available evenings. On Saturday and Sunday, I will be available all day/night! I have a fenced yard and two dogs at my home. Most likely, our dogs will be separated at all times, even though mine are friendly. I would rather stay on the safe side. But I will treat your animal as my own while in my care. Giving them all the attention, love, and time they need while you're away.
About: I have a special place in my heart for cats as both of my cat babies were off the street stray rescue kittens that I have nurses back to health. I have a Russian blue and an orange one! I can do whatever cat care is needed and know how to get along with some feisty cats.🐈 ❤️
About: I have been taking care of cats for over 20 years. I’m great at clipping claws, cleaning and showing love ! I have 2 cats of my own who even have their own cat room with auto litter box, water fountain and cats toys galore.
About: Having had numerous feline companions, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and body language, which makes me exceptionally equipped to take care of cats. My journey with cats began at a young age, and over the years, I have become deeply attuned to their distinct personalities and behaviors. I derive great pleasure from deciphering the unique language of cats and providing them with the care and affection they deserve. Cats are known for their independence, but they also require a sensitive and attentive caretaker who recognizes when they need affection, space, or medical care. My experience has taught me to identify subtle changes in a cat’s behavior, which can often indicate health issues or stress. This skill is essential in ensuring that a cat remains healthy and happy throughout its life. Furthermore, I have spent considerable time educating myself about feline nutrition and health. This includes learning about the best dietary practices, understanding the importance of regular vet visits, and staying informed about common feline ailments. This knowledge allows me to provide the best possible care for any cat under my supervision. Moreover, I am adept at handling various cat temperaments, from the most sociable to the more reserved or skittish cats. My patience and ability to adapt my approach based on a cat's personality have allowed me to form strong bonds with cats, making them feel safe and loved. In conclusion, my extensive experience, coupled with a genuine love and respect for cats, makes me ideally suited to take care of feline companions. I am committed to providing a nurturing, stimulating, and healthy environment for any cat that becomes a part of my life.
“Nicole was phenomenal! She gave my diabetic cat her insulin injections while I was away. She was very responsive and sent updates which eased any worries I had. I didn’t need care for my dog this time around but next time I do, I will be reaching out to her in particular. You can tell she cares about animals so you know your babies will be in good hands. If you’re in need of any care I would definitely recommend her!”
“Both of my cats have their quirks and health needs, but Dani was able to ease my worries about leaving them in her care. She was great with communication at each visit and didn't hesitate to reach out with anything to make sure my boys got what they needed while I was away. I came home to safe, happy cats and I would definitely have her check in on them again in the future!”
“Beth has been incredibly loving and patient to my 2 cats when we were away from home. We enjoyed our vacation knowing that Beth stayed in with my 2 cats to take care of them. She treated my cats as if they were hers, provided them with utmost care, and spoiled them. She even let them use her own ipad so my cats could play the mice hunt in her ipad. She would update me everything whether they are sad, or not feeling well. But, she would reassure me that she would do her best to make them comfortable and eat and drink. I am now at ease that I found an amazing and trustworthy sitter if I have planned vacations next time.”
About: I was raised with many pets, including 2 dogs. A pit bull and a shitzu mix. We raised kittens to find them their forever home. I bottle fed and nursed puppies that were without their mother. I learned the value of money by walking my Aunt's shitzu until I started high school. I naturally had an unspeakable connection with animals my whole life. I couldn't ever imagine my life without them. As of right now, our home is being ran by 4 dogs: Coach, Stella, Winnie, and Sage. And 2 cats: Sunny and Ash. Our backyard is big and fenced in. We let them out for an hour or so to get playtime and exercise in. Taking them for walks is not a good idea because Winnie can be reactive. We crate all of our dogs. They eat separately in their crates. Feeding instructions will be left in our refrigerator so they get their adequate amount. They also have slow feeding bowls.

About: I have two cats of my own. I’ve had them my whole life. The one is about to be 16 soon and he needs to wear a diaper whenever he’s roaming the house. Both of our cats were saved from the streets from a young age and we cared for them and still have them. I also go to college for animal studies and have kennel duties that require me to clean the cat room where theres like 10 cats in a night room. So, I know how to care for many cats at one time and for cats that need special treatment as well.

“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.
“Lorraine was a blessing! She took excellent care of my baby girl. She was very kind and listened to all my neurotic instructions. She treated my girl like her own and gave her lots of love. As per my request, I got daily updates and lots of pictures. My Lucy loved staying at her house with her new BFF Koko (Lorraine's dog). I am so happy to have found my new permanent sitter!”
“Kira was great to work with! I reached out to her last minute and she was extremely accommodating and easy going. I boarded my 2 Pomeranians at her house for a week while I traveled. My dogs seemed perfectly happy when I picked them up! Would absolutely recommend Kira as well as use again!”
“Michaela took amazing care of my dog and provided daily updates. He came back so happy, and it gave me so much peace of mind to know he was in good hands. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you!!”

“Lynnea was absolutely wonderful with our Fredi girl! She loved her and took care of her as if she was her own. She sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We will definitely use her again! Fredi girl loved her and her husband Bryan! She misses them already!!”
“Another great experience with Crystal! Our kitties came home bright eyed and with shiny coats to tell us they had a grand time. We couldn't ask for more! Communication throughout their stay was daily and let us know how well the stay was progressing. We are thankful to have Crystal as a host for our cats!”
“This was Mack’s first boarding experience and it was a great one. He is exhausted from playing in the grass and making friends. I’m so glad he had a great time and was safe while our family went on our vacation.”
“Very happy with the care Seneca received from Karter. She must have had a great time playing with their Shepherd puppy. Seneca is much stronger now after her stay with them. We plan on using Karter M. again in the future. Thanks again Darice”
“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
“Daniel and his kids were awesome with Charlie. He was able to meet with some accommodations that were required for the drop off. He took Charlie around and kept us updated throughout the stay. I recommend and will book again.”
“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”
About: I have cared for all kinds of animals since I was a child. I put only three years of experience because that’s when I turned 18. I have dealt with small dogs, big dogs, medium dogs, cats, and other kinds of furry and non-furry pets. I am here to give your four legged animals love and attention and their parents the support they need. I am currently working full-time 3 PM to 1 AM. I am always off Monday and Thursday and have a random third day off. That may seem like a tight schedule now but that is subject to change soon and I’m looking forward to meeting every one of your loved furry babies! I have a very large yard, although unfenced, but I do have two different leads hooked up outside. I do have a large size crate, if needed and wanted. My mom lives with us and she has two dogs, one big and old, one small and young who are both well-behaved and socialized for other dogs. We are also able to keep them away from your loved ones if preferred.
“Jessica was amazing with Felix, kept me up to date on how he was doing and provided a bunch of pictures. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous, but she made it extremely worry free. Her dogs were extremely friendly and even welcomed Felix the minute they saw each other. I will definitely choose her to watch Felix again!”
