She and her husband are well-trained and I knew my dogs were great hands when I did an initial meet/greet with them. Highly recommend!”

“We cannot say enough good things about Jason and Becky Z. They take such wonderful care of Calypso when we are away.

About: I have more experience caring for Cats than Dogs, since I own two 6 year old cats myself and have cared for them for years. I also cat sit my family friends cats and dogs. I am experienced in feeding, playtime, cleaning after pets, and administering both oral and topical medications. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand the importance of patience, attention, and making pets feel safe in their routine. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs and following any instructions regarding medications, schedules, or behaviors.

“Sierra is great! This is my second time having her take care of my cat and she does a great job, stays in contact throughout her visit, and will make sure your pet is well taken care of”

“Lindsay did great with our cat! She shared nice updates and photos every day and followed all the instructions we left. She also took excellent care of our plants.”


“She was exactly who we needed to care for our finicky sweet cat. Abby communicated with us every time she visited with photos and videos of our kitty. She updated us on our kitty’s patterns and eating habits and learned when she wanted attention and when she needed a little space (so important for cats!). She was flexible with needing to find supplies in the house like trash bags when we didn’t leave enough out. Our cat clearly loved having her there and warmed up to her quickly. Bubs is usually visibly stressed after we are gone even with care but this time she was happy and relaxed when we got back. Abby was really the perfect cat sitter for us!!”


“Sophia took amazing care of my senior kitty, including handling an unfortunate mess which she absolutely didn't have to do. She communicated super well and I'd highly recommend her, will book again!”


“HIGHLY RECOMMEND: MUST BOOK HER!! Alice did an absolutely outstanding job!!! I have a dog (Cooper) and a cat (Mochi), Alice took her time ensuring each of them was taken care of. She played with cooper, let him outside, walked him around the block and kept him healthy throughout my time away. She even got to play with Mochi, which is CRAZY, because Mochi is super shy and never plays with anyone! She just has a way with animals! I cannot recommend her enough; she will follow all your instructions then go above and beyond to meet every need of your family. The gentleness, kindness, and love she treated Cooper and Mochi with was exceptional. 10/10 will be using her for every single booking going forward. Thank you, Alice!”

“I can't recommend Zosha highly enough. I scheduled daily visits while we were on vacation for our cat Chloe to be given her medication and some love - and Zosha did such a great job at both! He went out of his way to give her plenty of affection and even treats on her puzzle toy. Everything was clean and left in great shape, Zosha was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures! Chloe is definitely a fan, and so are we. Thanks again, Zosha!”


“Mitzi was really great! Communicated consistently and her care for my cat while I was away gave me real peace of mind. And my cat was definitely much happier when I came back home.”


“I reached out to Anne to come do a few drop ins with my cat while I was away for a weekend with my husband. We did a virtual meet and greet ahead of time and Anne asked good questions! We were looking for a rover somewhat last minute and Anne was flexible and accommodating. We got updates and photos from Anne while we were gone which we appreciate very much.”

About: I enjoy caring for cats just as much as dogs and appreciate that every cat has its own unique personality. I've cared for a friend's cat and dog in the same home, and it was wonderful to see the special bond they shared. I understand that cats thrive on routine, patience, and respecting their space while still giving them plenty of attention and play when they're in the mood. Whether it's feeding, cleaning the litter box, engaging them with toys, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is happy and well looked after.

About: I once said something to a friend about how my cat was just communicating his boundaries when it came to our new kitten, and they laughed and said that was the most gen-z thing they had heard in awhile. I love my cats deeply, and really enjoy spending time with other people's cats as well. I don't have a lot of expertise in administering medication, other than flea and tick topicals (which is a two-person job in our household). I do have a wide variety of cat toys and strive to give my cats enough daily enrichment to keep them fulfilled and happy, and I scoop both cats' litter boxes daily. I would love to drop in and take care of your cat too! And I'll definitely respect their boundaries - even if my friends make fun of that terminology!
“Kateland was excellent in taking care of our cat for the week while we were out on vacation. She would send plenty of pictures and descriptions of her visits and was very kind!”


About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities, including my special needs fur niece, who I love playing with! Friends and family have trusted me to check in, feed, play, and clean litter boxes. I’m patient, gentle, and always aim to make cats feel calm and safe in their space during visits. Happy to meet and greet to see if we are a great fit!

“Our little kitties love it when Alexis visits! She takes such good care of them and sends daily updates/pictures to us. We know they’re in good hands when Alexis stops in!”

About: As a stay at home spouse, I am very vigilant and attentive with my furry companion; I enjoy petting and giving lots of attention to any dog. I dont mind snuggles and doggy kisses. I'm sweet but disciplinary when need-be. I enjoy grooming( I brush hair) and talking to dogs. I give treats and am mindful of eating schedules and diets. I walk dogs as much as I can. I do take pictures and update on dogs happiness. However, I can only sit small and medium dogs. I can walk or check-in really early in the mornings or late at night. I can be flexible! Available for walks and check ins throughout the day every day depending on availability due to medical appointments but will notify ahead of time. Best times are early in the morning and late at night and weekends mostly afternoon/evening and super early mornings. No answer at this time. Willing to negotiate conditions. Thank you for understanding.Looking forward to meeting your fur baby and developing a friendship. N n

About: I adopted my cat Albus as a kitten in 2014 when he was found in a box on the side of the road. He was dehydrated and covered in bugs. After getting him to the vet and nursing him back to health, he loves staying close by! He is about 12 years old and is now losing his eyesight but is still so playful. After caring for Albus I decided to extend my help to other cat parents in 2023 after settling in Virginia. I have experience with feeding, administering oral medications, playtime, and liter box cleaning whether it’s a drop in or overnight stay.

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Devora is so kind and accommodating and a pleasure to work with. Trusting your most precious pet with a stranger can be difficult but she was assuring, communicative, kept me updated and I really felt my senior dog with many needs felt comfortable and safe in her care. Many other dog care options have many dogs of mixed sizes and activity levels in large areas where they can play and be very active. But a small, more fragile dog really needs a particular place where they can be safe and comfortable, so Devora’s home really was a perfect fit for this niche that put my mind at ease and allowed my dog to have a stable space he could relax without anxiety at the times we weren’t able to take him along with us. I would absolutely recommend Devora for any pet care services she offers.”

“Fantastic time for my pup! We learned she loves cats and now has a new best friend! My dog was having fun being chased around the house by a cat. Catherine was super flexible and very attentive to Cami as well as her whole family.”

“We are grateful to Andrew for taking care of our dogs, Roscoe and Luna! He did an amazing job looking after them. They had a wonderful day filled with relaxation and fun, and it was clear that they felt comfortable and happy in his care. Andrew provided updates during the day showing our dogs enjoying their time away from home. We highly recommend Andrew as a dog sitter.”
About: Since I was five,I grew up with pets and having the responsibility of taking care of their basic and emotional needs to the best of my ability. I'm currently in college and many of the classes I take are online so most of the time I am at home caring for my cat sage! I’m so glad to be able to spend much of my time at home since I get to spend a lot of time with sage! I have a pet friendly house meaning everything in my apartment is safe and secure for the fur babies to run around and play. I also have many toys and treats to offer to any cats or dogs that I do end up taking care of! Sage is also a very friendly kitty and loves spending time with other cats, so it would be like a big sleepover for sage and whichever fur baby stays over!

“Lina had a great time with Helena and Nathan. The backyard is huge, and she loved running with her new dog friends. Didn’t get to meet Nathan this time, but Helena was wonderful with Lina. We will definitely book again.”

“Peace could not have had more fun with Michelle and Cinnamon running around in their very spacious back yard. It was a rainy day, but Peace didn't want to come inside. Michelle did a great job communicating to me and made sure Peace was dry when I picked her up. I seriously haven't seen Peace so excited about a daycare visit.”

“Loreen was really patient with Milo, who is a bit skittish around strangers. She took the time to get him acquainted with her house, yards and kids. She and the kids genuinely love Milo and she sent great pictures of his stay at her house. I’ll definitely use her again!”

“This was our 1-year-old puppy's first time away from home and she came back so happy, calm and relaxed it was clear she had a wonderful day and felt right at home!
