“Alyson was amazing. She took such great care of our 10 year old cat this weekend and gave us great updates and pictures during her visits. She took the time and care to cater to our *very* particular cat's needs and habits. She definitely goes the extra mile for your pet!”
“LIsa was very amiable and did everything that was requested of her; she also sent over pics of my cat to show that he was doing okay. Would absolutely recommend Lisa for any other pet-sitting jobs.”
“Highly Recommend! Kathleen is fantastic—caring, reliable, and attentive. My cat was happy and well cared for, and the updates gave me peace of mind. It’s clear that Kathleen truly loves animals and treats them like her own.”
About: I've always loved dogs and now I have a family that loves dogs! I care for friends' dogs and we have a 3-year-old Australian Labradoodle (before that, I had a dog for 17 years). I have a good yard and am close to parks. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can take several walks a day and live in a great neighborhood for walking dogs. I treat dogs like they are part of my family. They are welcome on our couches and are free to roam in my back yard. At night they will sleep in a bedroom and they'll never be alone.
“Thank you so much for looking after Binx while we were away! We appreciate your communication, care, and attention given to our little one, especially when his separation anxiety kicked in.”
“I couldn't have chosen a better sitter to drop-in for my dog and cat during my short getaway. Rilee was phenomenal while caring for my two fur babies. They got lots of attention and time outside and they were happy and healthy upon my return. My home and pets were well cared for and Rilee dropped in for them on schedule, as promised. I was updated promptly upon her departure with pictures and a drop-in update that I thoroughly enjoyed. I will definitely use Rilee again in the future.”
“I engaged Chuck's services for the first time. I am happy with Chuck's work. Our cat has recently been adopted and is incredibly shy. However, thanks to Chuck's diligent care, she did well during our absence.”
About: I've helped care for my previous roommate's 60 lb dog for 6 years while living together. This included letting him outside, taking him on walks, feeding him, and giving him medication when needed. I've also watched and cared for several other friends' dogs and cats while they were away. I'm currently working part-time and will have most of the summer off, so my schedule is relatively flexible at the moment. Happy to chat more about it! I will respect and oblige by any rules or boundaries set forth for your pets and within your home. Happy to accommodate and meet you where you're at!

“Ani was in great communication before the booking and made sure she had all the info to take care of my cat. My cat can be pretty skittish and came right out to be pet, and she’s the most important judge! I’ll definitely use Ani next time I go away!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Ethan! From the moment we met him, it was clear he truly loves and understands cats. Our furry friend instantly took to him, which is always a good sign! He sent us amazing pictures and videos that felt like little stories - our cat’s own mini adventure series! It was so fun to watch, and you can tell he’s seriously talented at capturing those moments. He even left his backpack behind while he was with our cat and when he had to step out for a few hours, so our cat would feel more secure - such a sweet and thoughtful touch. Our cat was happy and relaxed the whole time, and we felt totally at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Ethan to anyone looking for a cat sitter who truly cares. Can’t wait to book him again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 15, taking dogs for walks around my neighborhood and cat sitting while their owners are away. I have also have helped taking care of our family dog for years, taking him on hikes and to the vet. I am currently in college, so I am looking to do more short term work throughout the summer, during which I am usually available throughout the week and on weekends. I will happily take care of dogs in your home, playing with them, feeding them, and taking them out for walks! Unfortunately, I cannot host dogs at my own home.
