“She did not lie when she said she was “The Cat Lady” lol. She was amazing to our 2 fur babies and welcomed them in and treated like her own. She communicated very well, she didn’t judge when I came in with instructions on their feeling schedule lol and she was very sweet. A great experience overall. Thank you”
“Caroline watched my dog for the first time and took such great care of her! She is a senior dog and Caroline makes sure to give her the attention she needs always. Thank you for all the pictures you send!”
“Risa is terrific with our cats. She is reliable and follows all our instructions. She stays the full 30 minutes and gives attention to our cats beyond our minimum expectations. We’ve used her twice now and she will always be our go to sitter.”
“William is awesome! 10/10 recommend. We met prior to the booking to ensure a good fit for all parties. He is communicative, seems to care about my baby, and spent the time to take her on good walks as well as valuable playtime. I looked forward to pictures of Maple along with William’s description of the visit after each one! He had mentioned having a girlfriend in town during our meet & greet, so when he asked if she could join for one of the visits I was thrilled! More love for my girl. And I know had I told him I wasn’t comfortable with that he would have respected my choice, too.”
“From the second Minal walked in during our meet and greet, my cat immediately loved her. You can tell that she is the type of person that animals immediately trust. She did an amazing job looking after my cat while I was out of town. Would highly recommend and definitely book again for any future trips.”
“Sophia was amazing! Went above and beyond to make each of my cats feel cared for during my time away. Especially my youngest, who is shy and never connected with previous drop-in sitters, for the first time didn't look scared in the visit photos!”
“Miranda was amazing, she was timely and thorough. Our guy seemed happy and content when we returned home. I will absolutely book Miranda again as my first choice when possible for all further needs!”
“Cecille made an otherwise challenging process so effortless by being available with very little notice and by being communicative and flexible in making arrangements. Throughout the process, she was willing to go above and beyond my expectations to make sure my fur child was cared for, and in doing so, provided such valuable peace of mind. Cecille, thank you so much for your time and kindness!”
“Kylie did an amazing job stopping in to check on my two cats! She took great care of them and communicated well the entire time! She made sure they were brushed and got some cuddles. All the cat things were clean and neat when I arrived home. We will definitely be using her for future cat sitting! Thank you Kylie!”
“Chris was great! Spyder can get nervous with new people but he was comfortable with Chris. She even brought him a toy! It was nice to have someone trustworthy when I was gone for a long period of time.”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, from family pets to neighbor pets while they are away. I have fed, walked, and played with their furry friends whenever they needed it.

I send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Laura is super thoughtful too, and she seems very experienced with hosting and handling cats.”

Jessica was fantastic! She was very responsive and took excellent care of my cat while we were away. She followed all of the care instructions closely and handled my temperamental girl with patience and confidence. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in her hands. Highly recommend!
This was Emily’s first time with our Luna. So, she was kind enough to have a meet and great to get the lay of the land. I really liked meeting Emily first. Emily came and kept me in the loop with how things were going. Our cat can be shy and may take a bit to feel comfortable. Emily gave a little info most days. Emily was also very easy to contact if needed. After coming home… we found our home to be on the same clean place as we left it. That is also important to me. We really would be happy to have Emily come back to see our cat again and again.
Kiwi is just amazing! She took great care of my cat for over a month and was super responsive and considerate the whole time. She also went out of her way to vacuum the area around the litter box during each drop-in visit. Please definitely consider Kiwi if you are looking for someone that’s caring, dependable, and knowledgeable!
Avi was great! She worked with us to get and return keys and meet our cats before our trip. She took care of feeding our cats, and even was able to make sure to give one cat his insulin shots. We got several pictures each day showing how the kiddos looked, and the seemed to warm up to Avi quickly. This was our first time using a pet sitter, and our experience was wonderful! I highly recommend Avi and Rover!
