Tamara and Nicholas were great with our cats, and we would highly recommend them! They took care of feedings and maintained the litter box while we were away, and they spent lots of time engaging with the cats and playing with their toys with them (even working to earn the trust of our shy kitty). They were also super helpful when things came up, like the auto feeder going offline and some electrical issues- we appreciated their willingness to drop in and help and all the photos/updates post-visit. Thank you for keeping our cats happy and healthy while we were traveling!

About: I have hands-on experience dog walking and pet sitting, including caring for two dogs over the past year who were easily stressed. That taught me how to stay patient, calm, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I handled their meals, gave treats, and made sure they felt comfortable and safe. I also have pets of my own, including two corgis and a cat I rescued in 2021. My dogs are very active, so I’m used to daily walks, playtime, and keeping pets engaged. I always make sure pets are well cared for, with plenty of attention and comfort. They honestly get treated like royalty. I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the day for visits, walks, and playtime. I make sure each pet gets attention, stays on their routine, and feels comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and taken care of. I follow their routine and pay attention to what they need. In my home, pets will be kept completely separate from my pets, so there is no contact. I also have a big fenced front and back yard for safe outdoor time. I’m very patient and make sure every pet is cared for and supervised, and the same goes for caring for them in their home.

Mylene is an amazing sitter! She recently watched our babies while we were away for a mini trip, and we couldn't be happier. From the moment we met her for the meet-and-greet, we knew she was the best choice, and she didn't disappoint. Mylene is super communicative—we received perfectly timed walk updates every morning and evening. She is incredibly reliable and prompt with her replies, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We will definitely be booking her services again.

My dogs are having a great time getting to know Jennie. She sends me videos of the dogs wagging their tails and playing. She also keeps me updated on how the visits are going and sends a bunch of photos which is great! Jennie is very communicative and responsive. She has attended to all of my requests and followed any instructions I have provided. Jennie has been a pleasure to interact with and I’m glad my dogs have responded so well to her care. I highly recommend Jennie!

About: Hello! I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals. From a young age, I've been surrounded by pet bunnies, cats, dogs and lizards.

It's not just me though, my boyfriend, Gill A. also joins me on these sits, so your furry friend gets double the love! As dedicated pet caregivers, we understand certain pets unique needs and preferences. Whether providing nourishing meals, engaging in interactive play sessions, or offering gentle companionship and cuddles! If your pet happens to be a lizard, maybe no cuddling, but we will make sure they are well fed and happy! In addition to essential care tasks, we both offer various fun activities, specifically to cats and dogs so that they are entertained and mentally stimulated. This may include interactive toy play, puzzle feeders, and laser point games. For dogs, this would include playing some tug of war, fetch, or frisbee! Every pet deserves the best care possible, and we are here to provide just that. If you need caring and responsible sitters who will treat your furry friend like family, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would be honored to care for your beloved furry family member! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I am a full-time student with flexibility in the afternoons, starting from 3 PM. This allows me to dedicate focused time and attention to pets, ensuring they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve For in-home pet care, we prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. This includes regular feeding, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, and ensuring plenty of playtime and affection. Additionally, we maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, disposing of waste, and keeping living areas tidy. We also offer personalized attention and follow the owner's specific care instructions to ensure their pet's well-being and happiness.

Jennifer was amazing! She watched our cat, Shrimp Toast, over the Thanksgiving holiday while we were out of town visiting family, and we felt SO at ease. She communicated great with us, provided us the cutest pictures of Shrimp Toast, was considerate, and most of all, our cat loved her! I look forward to having the peace of mind I did on this trip as I do my next :)
