Rene was a great sitter for our two cats! She followed all our (complicated) directions for feeding them and they both loved her - even our shy boy! We’ll definitely book her again. Thank you, Rene!

Maddy was a fantastic house/cat sitter for our two cuties. Her communication is excellent, she carefully followed our sort of OTT directions for feeding and we returned home to happy kitties and a sparkling house. Thank you, Maddy!

Havana was an absolute dream to work with and I could not recommend her enough!! Our sweet dog is a very anxious and selective girlie and she warmed up to Havana much quicker than she typically warms up to people! Havana was great about prioritizing her comfort, minimizing stress, and building trust. She was also extremely detail oriented and communicative and sent regular updates and check ins. Not only was she amazing with our dog, but we also had some emergency flooding that happened right before we left and Havana went above and beyond to help out with making sure maintenance could do what they needed while we were away. She left our place in great condition and gave us such peace of mind while we were gone. I’ll definitely be using Havana again and couldn’t say enough great things about her!

About: I have about 10 years of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and needs, and am capable to provide individual care tailored to each pet. I'm currently in school about 4 hours or less a day so I have plenty of free time every day to spend with your pet! I have an unfenced yard, but plenty of access to local parks! I am capable of crating a dog if needed, and feel entirely comfortable fulfilling any other special requests!

About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets since I can remember. My family has had three dogs, four chickens, and a cat in my life with different needs and routines. I love animals and am able to adapt my pet sitting style based on their needs. My pet sitting experience ranges from a miniature schnauzer puppy to an old farm dog retriever. I will be shadowing at a Physical Therapy clinic, as well as peer mentoring for summer courses, so I will most likely be gone during the day. I am a morning person, so I don’t mind having to wake up early to make sure the pets need to go to the bathroom or get fed. I can adapt my schedule to fit the needs of your pet pretty easily, I am able to juggle many commitments at once. I am very detail-oriented, so I can follow any routine or set of care instructions precisely. Pets can be like an extra family member, and I understand how it is important to find someone you can trust to take care of them like so. I approach every new pet I meet with love and care, and will make sure they are as comfortable as possible. If there are any special needs or time where a pet needs, I make sure to set alarms and reminders so I don’t forget. When I interact with a pet, I make sure to read their body language so I don’t overstep any boundaries they may have.

Paulina is a fantastic animal care provider! She recently watched our lab mix and cat while we were on vacation. From the beginning Paulina was an attentive listener and all-around strong communicator. During our initial meet-and-greet it was obvious that she has a way with animals- both of our fur babies took to her instantly :) While we were away on our trip, Paulina would keep us updated with texts/photos and it always reassuring to see how much the fun the furry ones were having. We have already booked her for next trip in a few months and we would highly recommend her services to any of our friends in the area. 5 stars!

Madison was very responsive and sent me photos and updates every day! Yuki (my cat) took an immediate liking to her and it was nice knowing he wasn’t alone while I was gone as he’s getting very old! It was also very nice to get home from a trip to a still clean apartment and not have to immediately scoop the litterbox. Would def book her services again and recommend them!

Katarina was an amazing sitter for Zuko. She was incredibly accommodating, gave me continuous updates on Zuko, and went above and beyond with her care. Zuko ended up having some tummy issues and Katarina immediately updated me on the problem and even picked up his prescription from the vet on my behalf. She took great care of the home and was always available to help where she could while I was away. I would 100% book her services again and I am incredibly grateful for her care. Thank you so much Katarina!

Lauren was great! My two Saint Bernards loved her and her bf. She was a great communicator and provided lots of adorable photos. We came home to happy dogs, most importantly, and a clean house. She even went above and beyond by starting the bedding in the wash, not necessary but appreciated. We'd be happy to have Laurem stay again!

Absolutely incredible experience with Taylor 🌺🐾 From the moment we left, we knew our fur babies were in loving, caring hands. The constant updates, attention to detail, and genuine aloha spirit gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed, and clearly spoiled pups. Mahalo nui loa for treating our pups like part of your own ʻohana! We would trust you again in a heartbeat and highly recommend you to anyone looking for world-class care for their furry family members. 🌴☀️🐶

Chloe has been absolutely wonderful. She regularly stops by during the week to walk and care for our elderly pup, and has been so patient and caring while building a great bond with her. She recently stayed overnight with both our dog and bearded dragon, giving them amazing care, sending regular updates, and giving them lots of attention. We came home to happy pets and an immaculate house. She’s reliable, communicative, flexible, and someone we completely trust with our pets.

Havana been awesome with my two dogs, and they’re definitely not the easiest—one is older and needs meds, and the other is anxious and super high-energy. She handles both of them so well, makes sure they get their exercise, and stays on top of medications. Havana keeps me updated with how they are doing, which I really appreciate. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands.

Daniella looked after our 2 adult lab/shepherds (6 year old brothers) and home for 3 weeks. We couldn't have dreamed of a better experience from beginning to end and absolutely recommend Daniella 110%. Most importantly, our pups love Daniella. She's a great communicator, super responsible, and overall a joy to work with. From day 1 of our absence, we felt confident that our pups and home were in very capable hands. As we expected, we returned home to find the pups happy and healthy (albeit, likely missing their new friend, Daniella) and our home in pristine condition. Thank you, Daniella!
