Caitlin watched our Shih Tzu, Brooklyn, for 3 days and 2 nights, and we truly could not have asked for a more caring and compassionate person to trust with her. From the moment we met Caitlin, we could immediately tell how deeply she cares for animals, especially dogs. Throughout Brooklyn’s stay, Caitlin constantly kept us updated with endless pictures and thoughtful messages that gave us so much peace of mind. We always felt confident knowing Brooklyn was being loved, cared for, and given the patience and attention she needed. After recently losing her sister of 13 years, Brooklyn has struggled emotionally and requires extra patience and understanding because of both her grief and old age. Caitlin handled her with so much kindness, gentleness, and reassurance. Hearing about her experience rescuing her own dog and fostering others made it clear that caring for animals is truly part of who she is. We are beyond grateful for the love and comfort Caitlin gave Brooklyn during her stay. She treated her like family, and that means everything to us. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their pets as if they were her own.

Tammy and Tony are amazing! From the initial "meet & greet," to drop-off, during our pup's stay, all the way to pickup - they are a warm, dog-loving couple who will treat your dog like one of the family. We received frequent photo/text updates, and it was obvious that he was in good hands. I would strongly recommend them to anyone. You can enjoy your trip, and your dog will be happy too.

Jessica was a great cat sitter for Stanley. She was able to care for him as per my instructions and really reassured me during the stay. Since she has experience with cats, it greatly helped since Stanley can be a little bit difficult at times. If you need a cat sitter I recommend her as she was thoughtful and really helpful for me at a time when I really needed the help.

Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.

We had Cookie with Melanie for a week during our winter break and she was amazing! She sent me frequent updates and pictures which I really appreciated seeing while being away! Also when our picky eater refused to eat her kibbles (we usually mix her food with meat but didn’t send it in for logistical reasons), Melanie shared her concerns and asked if there’s something she likes and made chicken, just for her! Thank you for taking care of our four legged child!

I was a bit skeptical using Rover, and a bit nervous to leave Dilon. Paloma explained the process and was very helpful. I loved that Dilon stayed in good hands and I was able to have peace of mind. Paloma kept me informed of Dilon’s day to day, she would answer promptly to the messages and would also send pictures regularly. Thank you again for taking good care of Dilon.

Took great care of my babies as if they were her own and they had a great time on their stay, given the many couch lounging photos sent daily.

From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!

About: I have over 10 years of pet care experience, taking care of my family’s two dogs and cat, fostering dogs for two years at a local animal shelter, and sitting/ walking neighborhood pets. I currently am free all day, 7 days a week until I begin work as a preschool summer camp counselor in the end of June. After that, I still have a lot of availability, M-F anytime after 3pm and anytime on weekends. I have a fenced yard and crates available if needed. I live in a safe neighborhood with a park nearby which is perfect for walks, and have an animal-loving family. I am an avid rule follower, responsive communicator and will prioritize ensuring the safety of each pet.
