Karina was attentive, caring and consistent while watching my cat. Mylo is the definitive ‘scaredy cat’, afraid of everyone and everything. He resisted her at first but she broke down his barriers and by the end of the week he was playing with her and letting her pet him! I’m grateful to have such a wonderful sitter for my fur children!

This is our second time having Erica watch our guys, she was able to accommodate us last minute which was a sigh of relief for us since she had been here before! She was patient with the buds and kept me informed all along the way.

Abby did a great job. Our cat can be a bit cautious but she warmed up to Abby right away because of her kind and gentle demeanor. Abby was very professional and gave us updates and plenty of photos. We would gladly use her again in the future. Thanks!

About: Dog mom for 30 years giving love and care to dogs. I am organized, I follow a schedule, I love walking dogs and I have a high degree of responsibility. I have the flexibility to accompany them when you can't be at home with them. I have flexible schedule during my day because I have my kid at the school and I am flexible in my work. Also I can go at nights if the owner request. I think the pets feel more comfortable in their home. But if the owner feels the dog will be comfortable in my place, I can take of them in my home.

About: I have spent several years caring for animals in both professional and personal settings. My background includes working in an animal hospital where attention, safety, and calm decision-making were essential, as well as many years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs. Having raised and cared for three dogs, I understand the responsibility that comes with daily routines, behavioral changes, and recognizing when something is not quite right. I approach pet care with patience, awareness, and respect for each animal’s individual needs, and I take pride in being reliable and attentive at all times. I integrate pet care into my routine by managing my time responsibly. I have enough flexibility to give pets proper attention, playtime, and companionship without rushing or overbooking. I follow instructions closely, monitor behavior and comfort, and maintain clean, safe spaces at all times. I pay attention to routines, energy levels, and subtle changes that may signal stress or discomfort. I take care to respect each pet’s needs and the expectations of their owner, and I treat every home responsibly and professionally.

Cathy started caring for our black lab, Wendy, last week. She responded so quickly to my messages and was able to do a meet and greet within days of my first message to her! Our dog loves Cathy and it’s been going really well when Cathy comes to let her out at lunchtime. I would definitely recommend Cathy to care for your pet! She has a lab of her own and a lot of experience.

Yuliia was absolutely amazing! She kept our two pitbull mix pups happy, made sure they had adequate water and snacks, played with them and took great videos/pictures. Tails were wagging and the humans were put at ease that she was taking great care of them. Would DEFINITELY recommend hiring Yuliia to take care of your pets and we will certainly be using her again in the future:)
