Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!

Kay was a wonderful sitter for my three cats for my last minute trip out of town. The photos and notes she left in her reports made it obvious she was paying attention to each of their very different personalities and preferences and that even my very human-selective older cat was comfortable with her. If she is available, I will absolutely hire her again.

About: Call me Libby :) Dogs are my absolute passion in life! I was raised in a home with dogs and I’ve been a personal pet owner for over 10 years. I have experience raising and fostering puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ve had dogs in hospice care, with special needs, medical issues, etc. I have basic training skills and there are no stairs in my home in case your dog can’t use them. I have a large fenced in yard for play time or sunbathing in a safe and quiet neighborhood. They will be treated as if they are my own and loved on for every minute they are in my care! I run my own business so my work hours are flexible. I never leave the home for more than 4-5 hours at the absolute maximum. My 2 dogs and I go on evening walks everyday (after it’s cooled off in the summer time) and lots of outdoor time in between. My life revolves around my dogs needs so yours will fit in perfectly! I have a large fenced in yard and crates of different sizes if you need or want them to be crated. I have two friendly dogs so your baby will never be alone. My youngest dog will be a loving companion to your pet and make sure they feel like they’re at home. Whether that’s playing or napping, he will fall in love with them instantly!

Kylie is pleasant and positive to deal with, a good communicator, shows up on time, posts great photos, and seems to like my dog (well, you know, we all have a perfect child, even when we don't!). I will hire Kylie again.

Fergus (our cat) loves Virginia. He never purrs for anyone the way he purrs for her. When we got home today after being away for several days, my husband heard Fergus meowing through the door before we entered and said to me, "I pretty sure he's meowing 'Virginia! Virginia!' He's going to be so disappointed that it's us!" Virginia is great with Fergus, very kind to us, and has been just a perfect pet sitter.

As always, Jeffrey knocked it out of the park. We always feel so comfortable and confident heading out of town knowing that our babies (and house) will be perfectly cared for. He really goes the extra mile for the pups and with general tasks around the house and we really appreciate it. Communication of all events, big or small, is quick and clear. I’ll recommend him forever to anyone!!

About: I have owned dogs, cats, birds and reptiles for most of my adult life, and always had them in my home. I am retired and want to spend my free time with animals. I currently have one dog, a 15-pound neutered male, Leo. I am not working, so have plenty of time to help take care of your pet. I don't mind getting up early, like dog walks, and have a very flexible schedule. I have a good-sized fenced back yard, and a very friendly and playful dog in my home. I live within two blocks of Forest Hill Park, and walk there several times per day.

About: Hi there! I’m Julia, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, horses, and pets of all personalities and needs. I have experience housebreaking and training puppies in basic commands like sit, stay, and roll-over, as well as caring for senior dogs up to age 14. I understand the patience and care pets of all ages need and always make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I am a full-time college student taking several classes online so I am often home and your pet is never alone for too long. : ) Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always start by discussing expectations and routines. Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to fit their lifestyle. I focus on keeping pets both comfortable and active through walks or playtime.

Kay did a wonderful job caring for my cat by giving him medication and playing with him. I got detailed reports on the visits including great photos. I could tell that he was having a great time. It’s clear that Kay is excellent with cats, conscience of their needs and personalities, and willing to ensure continuity in routine.

Nina has looked after our two cats twice now and she will always be the first sitter that I look next time I need to book a sitter! Both cats were extremely well cared for and I have total peace of mind while on vacation knowing she is looking after them. She shares great updates and it is clear to me she “gets” our two quirky cats. Thank you as always, Nina!

Abigail was very attentive and I would definitely entrust my pets with her care again. I would say she went above and beyond the call of duty because my phone got stolen on my out-of-country trip and this was before I had had a chance to send her pet care instructions, which I could not do until I replaced my phone. She could easily have just abandoned the job but she did all the things a responsible and caring person would do in such a situation (like calling emergency contact etc., since she couldn’t reach me). I felt so so horrible about that but it all worked out, thanks to Abigail!
