“Shelby was wonderful with my 5 year old female mix. She showed up early and stayed an extra night as my flight was delayed. She sent photos regularly and any time she had questions she reached out. I highly encourage you to use her!”

“Jessica was great with Coby. He was so glad to see her and loved her attention. She is very knowledgeable about caring for dogs and dog behaviors. We will ask for her help again. Great personality.”
“We are so happy to have found Karolina! She and our kitty seem to really love each other. She takes such good care of our house, and keeps our kitty happy while we are away. We have no worries when she is there.”

“Donna did a wonderful job looking after our older kitty for a couple nights. His (and our!) anxiety visibly lowered, thanks to her care, and we so appreciated the pictures she sent.”

“We had Ron stay at our house and care for our dog, Ruby. Ruby was well taken care of, and the house was immaculate upon our return. I would definitely recommend Ron for caring for your animals.”

“Finding someone we can trust with our girls has always been the biggest reason we don’t travel much. But after working with Morgan, we’ve finally found that person! She was absolutely amazing with our Abby and Penny, treating them with so much love and care. We got daily updates and photos, which totally put us at ease. It felt like we were still connected to them even while we were away! When our flight got delayed, Morgan went above and beyond and stayed late to make sure the girls were fed and walked, which was a huge relief. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and who genuinely loves and will treat your fur babies as if they were her own, Morgan is your girl. We couldn’t be more grateful!”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8 and all my dogs have shown great love towards me because I give them the full love back. I am known in the family as the family caretaker when our dogs get old and need special attention. The reason I take care of my dogs when they get older because I have the patience, attentions, and most of all, love in supporting them through their elderly stage. All pets deserve the best and I am more than happy to provide that! I am currently taking the year off from work to travel the world but in between my trips I have a lot of free time and feel it can be better spent taking care of pets while other people can enjoy trips or another activity that requires them to leave their pet at home. I have a 5-year old Havanese and I take him on walks daily, I make sure he is bathe at least once a month, and try to take him on as many trips so I can, so he can enjoy the world as much I as I do.
“Katrina was a very lovely person and Buda really seemed to like her. She did a great job of communicating and our home was way tidier than we left it! Truly appreciate her and will reach out to her again for future needs.”

“Liz was fantastic with the cats and their specific needs. She was very communicative and The house was very clean when I got back! I'll be booking with her when I go out of town again 100 %.”

About: Hi! I’m Abby — a lifelong cat lover and experienced pet sitter with over four years of caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I have one cat of my own, along with five dogs, so I understand how to create a calm, stress-free environment even in multi-pet homes. I’m passionate about making sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away — whether that means quiet companionship, playtime, or extra cuddles. Hi! I’m Abby — I work a few part-time jobs, but I’ve always loved having side hustles on the go.

“Jasmine did a phenomenal job taking care of my elderly dog. I came home to find him relaxed, clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. My home was left immaculate as I left it. She is by far the best sitter we have ever had. I can’t thank her enough. She sent me a pic and responded promptly any time I sent a message.”
“Stefani was outstanding! I couldn't ask for a better experience. She took superb care of my dogs (3) and my home. I had a fabulous vacation knowing Stefani was at home with my dogs. We received photos and communication from Stefani every day. She answered any messages we sent immediately. The dogs got lots of love and attention. I trusted Stefani with our home and 3 great friends. Great decision! She is FANTASTIC!”
“Roman actively communicated with us and shared plenty of photos. He went above and beyond to take care of our three and I can tell that Magrat got plenty of snuggle time. Even our shyest cat warmed up to him over a few short days. I hope we can book with him again in the future. Thank you!”
