Brooke was a fantastic sitter. She went above and beyond to care of our kitties and clean up any messes they made. I will definitely be booking with Brooke again

Needed a couple drop-ins on short notice so I contacted Hailey and she got back to me right away. We set up a meet and great for that evening and she was right on time. All 3 dogs just loved her at first sight! After they got their attention we went over all the details of food, water, etc. She was on time to appointments and sent pics during visit. Hailey has great communication and I will definitely use her again.

Allison has been very pleasant and professional to work with. She communicates well and always leaves a detailed report on how the visit went. I have a new 5 month old German Shepherd rescue dog (who is still recovering from surgery). She can be a handful at times. It’s been such a relief knowing that she’s in capable hands with Allison. I highly recommend her for dog walking and/or drop in visits.

Heather is such a fantastic person who really goes above and beyond for your pets! She has taken such great care of our two senior kitties and is always incredibly responsive, detailed, and proactive. She has made sure to really know our pets and what behavior is and isn’t normal- even making an additional visit to make sure one of our kitties wasn’t sick! She is amazing and will continue to be our tried and true ❤️

Julia was an absolute godsend for us. My dog had quite a few issues while we were out of town, and Julia was amazing. She gave me constant updates, came to check on him regularly outside of what was originally booked, and made sure that my dog was safe and cared for. She helped ease my worries, and I would definitely rebook her, no questions asked. Our cat also loved hanging out with her!

Brenda took great care of my recently adopted feline, Atticus, when I was suddenly called out of town. I found her punctuality and dependability assuring, and her approach to providing care to a skittish kitty in alignment with mine; when I arrived home, Atticus was in great shape, physically and emotionally. Absolutely recommend her with enthusiasm.

Leah did a great job checking in on my cats while we were away. She was communicative, super nice, and followed through with what we asked. She sent lots of pictures of our cats when she checked in on them. When we got home, nothing was out of place and our cats had a clean litter box plus plenty of food and water. I definitely plan on booking Leah again in the future.

About: I love all animals but have a soft spot for older dogs and cats that might need a little extra love and attention. I grew up with dogs but currently have a 5 year old calico cat named Coco. I am a teacher who has much more free time in the summers. I am looking for afternoon/evening weekday jobs for this summer! I love walking. I will come to your home and make your fur baby feel comfortable in their own space. I can also take them for walks and/or play with them in your home. I can also bring animals to my apartment for animals that need more attention and care.

Knox can be a bit particular, but he absolutely loved the attention and care he received. We got regular updates, photos, and little notes that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear he wasn’t just being “checked on”—he was genuinely cared for, played with, and kept comfortable in his routine.
