“Ruth took great care of both my cats while I was away! She even took the time to look for my cat who likes to hide just to make sure they were okay. Would recommend!”
“This was my first time using Chrissy’s services (drop in visits) and she did a wonderful job! She gave me regular updates to let me know how my pet was doing while I was away. She was very responsive and was very mindful of care instructions to ensure my pet was well taken care of and happy. Chrissy is very nice and took the time to meet me in advance of the service to make sure me and my pet felt comfortable with her. I would recommend her to others.”
“Francesca did a great job taking care of my cat again while I was out of town for two weeks! It was so nice to know my senior cat was in good hands, and Francesca was great at keeping me updated -- fantastic communication. Highly recommend booking Francesca to watch your furbaby. Thank you so much!”
“Ellie was absolutely wonderful and took excellent care of my 2 kitties! She sent plenty of pictures and gave updates. She really cared about them and took extra time to play with them and give them attention. One of our cats is very shy around strangers but he warmed up to Ellie immediately. She came by for a introductory meeting to go over the feeding schedule and while we were away she was great about providing updates and staying in contact. Truly great service!”
“Maureen was great and extremely reliable. She kept us updated and was genuinely caring to our cat. We would definitely use her services again. We could actually relax enjoy our vacation knowing Maureen was taking care of our cat.”

“Grace checked in on our cat twice a day for a week, feeding him his wet food, playing, cleaning his litter box and leaving fresh water. She was very communicative and always on time for the early morning feeds. She cleaned all of our cat’s food dishes and swept up any crumbs from his food and litter box. We very much appreciated her looking after our guy. It was nice not worrying about him while we were gone. Thank you!!”
“Amber was incredible with my cat, Gus! She stayed with him while I was gone for a few days and sent me pictures every day! I would 100% have her stay with him again, in fact, I even referred her to my family. So that should tell you something!!”
“Valerie was wonderful! The app shows she was timely and she sent updates as well as the cutest pics of them enjoying their time together. We will definitely book with Valerie again.”
“Alexis was a great caregiver for my sweet, old cat. On the first day, when Kippy did not appear to get her food and meds, Alexis searched and found her hiding place, thus ensuring Kippy got what she needed that morning. Alexis’s kind and gentle demeanor soon made Kippy lose her fear and she began greeting Alexis at the door. I would definitely hope Alexis was available the next time I need Killy care.”
About: I have taken care of a dog from fifth grade all the way up until high school, including training, walking, playing, feeding and just hanging out! I also have cat sitting experience with many services there! I’m currently saving up for college, so I’m very free during all of the days! I just have practices in the evening. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I can very easily do any task asked of me in the client’s home. Whether it is feeding, creating, playing, walking, or just hanging out! I will be sure to love your pet as my own.

About: I am an avid dog lover. Sometimes I'll take my mother's place and walk the dogs she's been assigned to look after. Walking other people's dogs brings me joy, and meeting all kinds of dogs is always a blessing. Cats too! I have owned cats all my life and also own a dog. I am a college student now so I don't get to be with my dog that much anymore. I would walk your dog as if he/she was my own. I will be able to give your pups plenty of attention and TLC at your convenience. I will do this by fitting into your pet’s schedule and caring for them as needed. I will follow specific instructions given by you. I will provide dog-walking and pet care services in the comfort of your home. I can give your dog a joyride to the dog park or the waterfront for a little escape from home.
