“Lexi was great with my particular and somewhat shy senior dog. We planned drop-ins prior to the full weekend, which worked great for Lexi and my Coco to get to know each other a little. Lexi is very responsive and gave updates. I will feel more comfortable taking trips and time away with Lexi caring for my girl!”


“We were very happy with the communication and attention to detail while watching bella. Not only did she take great care of our dog but also our house 🧡 we would definitely recommend her and use her in the future”


“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”



“As usual, a smooth transaction/stay! We absolutely love Ashley. She is very flexible, punctual and most importantly - clean (we only do home stays). Our pup is always happy to see Ashley and enjoys her company very much.”


“Highly recommend Emily’s services!! She made our senior dog so comfortable during her 4 day in home pet sitting. We received daily updates & pictures, and we could tell how much our dog enjoyed spending time with her! It can be nerve wracking leaving a senior dog at home, but we were never worried about our dogs care and safety while we were gone and Emily was with him.”


“Maiah is great and my dogs love her! Rebooking her again!”


“Adrinne was incredible! She took great care of our dog, Rita, taking her on my walks, to dog-friendly coffee shops, and many snuggles. She sent photos and updates every day. We would highly recommend her and look forward to having her back!”


“Jessica has taken care of our cats, pup, and home while we’re traveling multiple times. She is such a wonderful sitter, and we’re really grateful to have found her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, communicative, and wonderful to work with!”

“Absolutely wonderful!!! Claire is very reliable, communicative and sends the best photos. Most importantly, Charlie adores her and she adores him right back!!! I am so happy and feel extremely confident leaving him in her care. Will book her again without hesitation!🩷”


“Rachel is amazing! One of our dogs is hesitant with new people, and Rachel deals well with her noise and makes her feel comfortable quickly every time. Our dogs love spending time with Rachel and we love getting regular photos of all the fun they're having :)”



“We have a 4 year old terrier mix, a Dachshund and an Boxer who are both 8, and a 12-year old Chihuahua-Dachshund mix who is very nervous and afraid of just about everyone but myself and my husband. We've not been comfortable boarding them for a few years now, so have not really been able to go away overnight unless a close friend or family member was available to sit with them. That's all changed now, thanks to Jeremy! A friend had recommended Rover.com, so we read through hundreds of reviews for dozens of sitters, and Jeremy sounded like the best fit. We booked a couple of house visits and then an overnight house-sitting. He was great in general, and absolutely amazing with our little frightened girl. He was so patient and made extra effort to make her feel comfortable around him, and in no time she had warmed to him more than she has with most of the family members she's had contact with for years! Jeremy sent frequent texts and photos while we were away so we could see just how they were all getting along. We were comfortable we'd left our babies in good hands, and were actually able to relax and enjoy our time away. We will definitely be booking with Jeremy again in the future! Thank you, Jeremy!”



“Billy was awesome and responsive. Gave us updates throughout the day, and took great care of Apollo. Billy asked questions and followed instructions as well us took good care of our place. Would definitely recommend and use Billy again.”


“Did amazing”


“Margit did a beautiful job managing two dogs and a puppy for us. She was on time, took good care of our house and our trio, and worked on behaviors and training with the puppy. We appreciated daily updates and pictures and our three really seemed at home with her.”


“Amanda was great to work with! She was prompt to respond and set up a meet and greet. She had a questionnaire for me to fill out covering all bases about Theo’s care and house sitting which I thought was really helpful! Theo seemed to like her a lot and was quite relaxed when I returned from my trip. I got daily updates with pictures. Would definitely like to work with her again :)”


“Zoey was amazing with my dogs and had incredible communication. This is the first time I have left my babies alone with someone and she couldn’t have made me feel more comfortable about it. Highly Recommended and I will, without hesitation, book her again!”


“Julia was awesome!! I felt so comfortable with her being at my home and taking such great care of my puppers. I’m certain they adored her. Such a lovely person.”


“Riley was great at making sure to hang out with our dog Obie while we were out of town. He was not even quick to whine upon returning from a trip. Great at responding when asking for any updates and we had good communication while trying to meet up to get details down. We would definitely recommend for any pet needs :)”


About: Hi! I’m Kat. I have experience looking after animals of all kinds - dogs (big and small), cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, turtles, you name it. I have three cats at home who get lovingly spoiled every day, and I have experience dog walking, dog-sitting (included overnight stays), and cat-sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I have a genuine love for all types of animals, and I put their well-being, care, and enrichment above all else. I work from home as a jewelry maker, so my schedule during the week is flexible as can be. I can easily make time for morning, midday, and evening visits. I am detail-oriented and will follow any given care instructions to the letter. My goal is to treat your pet just like you would, with the same love and attention you give them every day.

“Cindy was absolutely amazing! She gave plenty of updates of on fur baby photos included which made it so much better. She was super flexible on start and end time to make sure that our lucky was taken care of no matter what . Lucky came home so happy I just know he had a blast hanging with Cindy. Any time we need some one to watch lucky we will be asking Cindy first before any one else”
