“Chris was great with my puppy! Very attentive to both my needs and my puppy’s needs during his visits. Great communication and photos to ease my nerves. I’m would highly recommend him for any of your pets needs!!”

“Nicole is wonderful with my Atlas. She is always on time, communicative, and sends lots of pics. I was concerned that he might develop separation anxiety when I returned to work, but Nicole’s drop-ins keep him happy and engaged (the only separation anxiety is mine 😊). Her consistency and experience is helping him learn his manners (leash and potty etiquette) very well.”

“We feel so lucky to have found David; truly, we only wish that we had found him sooner! He is reliable, considerate, and, most importantly, our dog LOVES him. Our dog is older, with some medical issues, and can be standoffish to new people but David won him over almost immediately. We always have complete confidence and peace of mind that our dog is well cared for.”

“Nina is so great! She is so quick to respond and was able to accommodate a very last minute meet and greet and drop in services for our pup! She is very communicative, sends great updates, and our pup loved her. Will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”


“i never met elvia, only spoke on the phone, making arrangements for my dog. Having never met her, leaving my house keys was honestly a bit uncomfortable for me. however, given her excellent reviews, i decided to just trust and go for it. elvia came exactly on time, fed and played with my dog for a half hour and then left. everything went just as planned. her communication was great, which was essential, and put me at ease. i had a postive experience.”

“Daniela was a great cat sitter! She was very communicative and organized. Not to mention, she was very attentive with my cat. I would definitely hire her again!”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Alison! She stepped in at the very last minute and took such wonderful care of our cats. There was even an unexpected fire alarm while we were away, and she handled it calmly and professionally - we felt so relieved knowing she was there. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets 💛”

“We love Ursula- she is WONDERFUL! Our shy little kitty loves her, and I know I can count on Ursula to look after her and save all of us tons of stress. She even saved some of my plants from death during the heatwave while we were gone!”

“Hanaya was great with our anxious mini-Golden doodle. She took great care of him, and was extremely flexible with dates and times. We will definitely use Hanaya again!”

“Extremely impressed with Maria taking care of my cat. My cat is newly rescued and very scared of people. While I was away my cat found some places I didn't even know were possible to hide that were probably not very safe for a cat. Maria went out of her way to get my cat out, and prevent her from going back. By the end of the week my cat was even opening up a bit towards her.”


About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, especially getting outside for long walks and playtime. I regularly care for my family’s pet, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, and making sure pets feel safe and happy. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog loves energetic walks or a slower, relaxed pace, I’ll tailor each visit to keep them comfortable and engaged. I also make sure to communicate with updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. Although I work full-time, I’m mainly remote, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care throughout my day. I can schedule walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins around my work, making sure pets get attention, exercise, and companionship when they need it. I enjoy spending time outdoors and going on long walks, so dog walking fits naturally into my daily routine. Being at home most of the day also allows me to monitor pets, provide care, and give them comfort and reassurance. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe and happy while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. I provide care in your pet’s home so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care needs. For dogs, I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and companionship they need through walks and active time. For cats, I keep things calm and consistent, maintaining litter boxes and giving attention based on their comfort level. I’m very respectful of your home and always keep things clean and organized while I’m there. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
“I am very grateful Emma was available last minute to drop in and take care of Honey. She responded immediately and followed through. She is very reliable and professional.”

“Emily is an exceptional pet sitter. We recently left her in charge of our two cats while we travelled abroad. She not only sent us daily check-ins and photos which eased our minds, but she also spent time playing with them and giving them the loving attention and affection that they needed and were missing. Emily was responsible, reliable, responsive and even left our house clean and tidy. But most of all, our cats seemed happy and stress-free when we arrived home. I highly recommend Emily and will most definitely request her service in the future.”

“Stephanie is amazing! She follows all of my instructions and is a natural with my Golden Retriever puppy. She takes very good care of him and treats him as her own. I would highly recommend her :)”

“LisaLeigh really helped us out when we were in a bind. She was communicative and took great care of our two pups for the night. I will absolutely be calling her again!”
“Ashley and Mauricio were absolutely amazing with our cat Porfirio during the holidays. They went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. They were super reliable and communicative. Porfirio warmed up to them quickly and seemed to really enjoy their visits, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend! 🐾”

Serena was great with my two cats for 10 days. My two cats were very trusting with her. My orange cat ahoweed his belly on day one and my other one who is usually very cautious and scared of strangers approached her. She was very consistent and showed up every day. She is also very responsive and provided pictures daily.

Kamila is the best find I ever had for my cat. Lots of photos and detailed feedback. She looked after my cat like her own and can tell she truly is an animals lover. She checked in on time each day and I can tell from the photos that she had a bond with my cat. Will definitely use her again for my next trip!!

This is my 2nd time with Maria and I could not be happier! We usually have a friend house/ pet-sit for us, so I was a little nervous about having a stranger caring for our dog and 2 cats, but Maria immediately put those worries to rest! Our pets loved her so much they weren't even that happy to see us when we returned home ;) Highly recommend!

Connor was great watching our cat Pepper while we were away! He sent photos and a detailed check in each day, making sure she had everything she needed. He went above and beyond cleaning around her little box and taking out the trash when he noticed it was full. Pepper can be quite shy, and he took the time to coax her out with toys and give her extra attention! Would highly recommend Connor for any pet sitting needs!

Hanaya is perfect! I can only say good things! She helped us out in a terrible pinch. She was responsive and prompt about it, willing to commit to what I consider to be a challenging job, and she did it reliably and proved very flexible as well. I’m going to use her again the next time something comes up!
