“We had Emilie drop in and care for our cats while we were out of town for a week and felt so comfortable with them in her care. She provided text and photo updates for each drop in visit, made all the visits at the requested times, and even brought in a package for us that was delivered while we were gone! I really appreciate her taking the time to get to know our cats and make sure they were as comfortable as possible in our absence. We highly recommend Emilie and will definitely have her petsit again in the future!”

“Lauren was great! Very communicative and from the beginning sought to define clear expectations for her visits. She asked for feedback between visits and was all around great!”


“Melissa and Jordan were AMAZING!!!! It was my first time having a pet sitter who was someone I didn’t personally know, and they made me feel so comfortable and at ease. They went above and beyond from the time we first started chatting to the very end when I got home from my trip. I cannot recommend them enough!!!!”

About: I have extensive experience caring for cats of all kinds. I grew up with a cat who has become sick so I understand the demands of sick animals. I have lived with cats of friends during college and have since had them stay with me for over a week at a time while their owner was away and their needs always come first. I currently work full time, 8.5 hrs a day in person during week days. I am mostly available to do daily check ins, weekend/holiday boarding, but am otherwise available for boarding in the case that your cat is lower maintenance (ie not sick) and you are fine with the animal being by itself during the work day! I have boarded a friends cat for 1 week+ while working with no issues in the past, but this depends on the animal. I can offer morning/evening check ins to feed your cat, supply medicine (with instruction), have playtime, and scoop litter. Same goes for boarding the animal, I make sure litter is always clean, food is on time, and always make time to play!
“Alyssa took great care of our cat, even cooked salmon skin for her to have as a treat. We got several precious photos every day and enjoyed the daily updates!”

“Vivian was excellent. Our cats warmed up to her immediately. She was very communicative and sent more than enough photos each visit. We highly recommend her!”


“Grace took great care of my cat, Camilla, during four days of drop-in visits. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Grace genuinely enjoys spending time with cats, and she quickly bonded with Camilla. She even told me that Camilla was one of her favorite cats she has cared for. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and would gladly book Grace again.”

“Renee is absolutely amazing. Our dog Birdie loves her. She took care of him for three days. She sent us very detailed reports and many photos during her visits. She is great at communicating and everything went so smooth thanks to her. I would ask for Renee's help again in the future with no hesitation.”

About: Hi :) I am an animal lover and excited to care for your fur baby! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, growing up with a Miniature Schnauzer and a calico cat. I currently have a cat of my own, and my family has a Giant Schnauzer and Great Dane, so I’m comfortable with large dogs. I’ve also cared for dogs and cats for neighbors and family friends and am an experienced cat foster. I have experience caring for animals with special needs, including blind animals and a three-legged Bullmastiff. One of the cats I fostered had an amputated leg, and I was responsible for giving her oral medications and helping with her recovery. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you’re away! 🐶🐱💕 I graduated this past May with an MPH in Epidemiology from Rollins School of Public Health and am currently looking for a full-time position. In the meantime, I’m open to daily pet care opportunities and would be happy to help in any way I can! Recurring unavailable times due to existing bookings in the Old Fourth Ward area: • Tuesday & Wednesday: 11:30 AM–12:00 PM • Tuesday–Friday: 12:30–1:00 PM • Tuesday, Thursday & Friday: 9:00–9:30 AM and 4:00–4:30 PM I’m very flexible and happy to tailor care to whatever your pet enjoys! I love taking dogs on walks, to the dog park, or wherever else they love to go. I also love playing with cats and giving them plenty of attention, especially since I have an orange tabby of my own!
“Amy was an incredible cat sitter, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care she gave Luna. From the very beginning and throughout my entire trip, she maintained excellent communication, always responding quickly and providing detailed updates. She followed all the instructions I left for Luna with so much attention and care, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away for such a long time. When I came home, I could immediately tell that Luna was happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. She clearly never felt lonely or neglected, and it was obvious how much love and affection Amy gave her while I was gone. I am incredibly grateful for Amy’s professionalism, dedication, and genuine love for animals. Most importantly, I’m thankful for how wonderfully she treated my Luna. Knowing she was in such caring hands made being away from her so much easier. I would absolutely trust Amy with Luna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet as if they were her own. Thank you so much, Amy! ❤️”


“Caroline was great with my one year old cat! She noticed right away Ivy can be very shy and nervous to meet new people, yet she was incredibly patient with her and eventually made sure to make her still feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend”

“Maria provided lots of great photos while i was away. i came home to a happy cat and she even cleaned up the litter he usually tracks around. i would definitely book with her again”

“Shirley Mae was the best - she came a day early for a meet and greet which really helped us feel comfortable with the system as first time users. She was punctual and easy going. She gave a great write up and took pics which we also loved. Thank you!! Def would hire again.”

“Olja is great! My wife and I had complete peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good hands while we were on vacation. It was clear he was well cared for, and we truly appreciated the attention and care he received. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care.”

She was great with Ziggy, who can be pretty anxious with new people. She was patient with him and clearly knew how to make him comfortable. Sent lots of great photos! Very responsive and accommodating with a last-minute booking too. Would definitely book again!

Erin was so great with Fig and Olive! She kept us updated, took such good care of the girls and even checked in on them to make sure they were okay when a thunderstorm rolled through. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were well cared for while we were away.

Hayley is amazing! Our pets absolutely love her and she did such a great job taking care of them during our long trip. It was so nice to be able to go on vacation and not stress so much about our pets knowing that Hayley has everything under control. We highly recommend Hayley to anyone who needs a trustworthy, reliable, and caring person to look after their pets.

Amy was amazing! She was prompt, reliable, and did a fantastic job taking care of my dogs while I was out of the country. She sent me pictures throughout the trip, and my dogs always looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands, which allowed me to truly enjoy my vacation without worrying about them. My dogs absolutely love Amy, and I felt very comfortable and safe having her care for them. I would definitely book with her again—and honestly, I’d book her over and over! Thank you so much, Amy, for taking such great care of my babies! 🐾❤️

He was wonderful with both Winston and Pepe, and they seemed very comfortable and happy with him. He followed all of my instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout the visits. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in good hands. I would definitely book with him again!

Melanie has been my pet sitter for years. She gives my cat, Oliver, SO much love. Oliver loves her and she is incredibly reliable! She has helped me in a pinch multiple times and has always made sure Oliver is cared for. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to take care of my baby!

Emilie was absolutely wonderful with our two kitties, Perry and Poppy. Emilie was loving, kind, and attentive, and we could tell they were in great hands while we were away. Emilie sent the cutest, most interactive photos that really showed Perry’s and Poppy’s personalities. I especially loved Emilie’s action shots that showed Perry and Poppy eating their Churu. Emilie gave us so much peace of mind knowing our kitties were being cared for. We would absolutely book Emilie again and highly recommend her!
