My experience with Jessi was perfect! My shy cats actually came out from under the bed for her. She left super informative feedback and accommodated all my requests! She was super sweet and kind. I will definitely rebook with her soon!

Gabrielle was wonderful with my cats! She is responsive, flexible, and kept me updated with pics. I’d definitely have her take care of my fur babies again.

Ivy did a great job watching my dog Porter. He is a large dog who is afraid of everything, so he can be a challenge to watch. Ivy quickly made friends with him, and she took care of him while we were away for the holiday. She sent some amazing pictures and went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for.

Rani is Heaven sent! We had a prior arrangement that was not going well and Rani was available and flexible and soooo good with our cat, Loki. She really gave him the love and affection that we would have, which is exactly what we were looking for! You will not go wrong with leaving your fur babies in her hands. Thank you again, Rani! You restored our peace. God bless you!

About: I've taken care of a variety of animals through out my life such as cats, dogs, geckos, and fish. I am trained on giving dogs oral medicine. I volunteer at a local animal shelter where I'm working on my Fear Free Shelter certification and Fear Free Homes certification. I am currently working a part-time job, so my schedule is pretty free. I do not mind early mornings or late evenings. I am flexible. I can drop in and visit your cat or dog. I love playing with both. I can also perform basic care like feeding, watering, cleaning litter boxes. I can also take your dog on walks.

This is the second time Jennifer took care of my kitty for an extended period of time. She is still amazing. She plays and cuddles with him, and makes sure he is brushed and shiny, on top of the usual things like feeding him and cleaning out the litterbox. She sends lots of photos, helping me feel closer to my cat. My cat even lets humans rub his belly after spending time with Jennifer - she has the magic touch! Jennifer is wonderful with pets, responsible and trustworthy.

Janice is probably the most caring sitter I’ve ever met. She cared for each one of my 5 pups like her own. I’m probably only going to be booking with her exclusively from now own. Thanks so much, Janice!! You’re awesome!!

Fatima is super responsive and was very flexible when we needed to adjust our dates last minute. She is super gentle and even our very shy cat felt comfortable with her by the second time he met her! We were very impressed! We didn't worry about our cats at all while we were away. We are hoping that next time we need a cat sitter she will be available and I'm sure our cats would love to see her again.

We are so glad to have found Kelly! Our dog is anxious and dog-reactive and is very sensitive with handling/petting, so we have to be very careful about choosing people who can take care of him, but Kelly has a lot of prior knowledge & experience with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs, and she has been wonderful! She goes above and beyond and does such a great job. We feel totally comfortable with her housesitting when watching our dog. Totally recommend her to anyone!

About: Growing up I had a dog and several cats that were incredibly important to me. Now as an adult I have my own dog who is my best friend and the light of my life. As much as I would like to take her everywhere I go, that's not reality so I understand the importance of a good caregiver. Whether you're going on a daytime adventure and need someone to check on your best friend or just need someone to get a walk in while you're not available, I'm your person! As for the cute cats in your life, I would love to help there too. I currently work as a nanny and the family has cats. Part of my daily responsibilities are feeding them and of course an added bonus is getting cuddles. I currently work as a nanny in the evenings. This means that I have plenty of free time before 3pm to care for your pets and give them all the love they need. I'm free Mon- Thurs before 3pm and typically anytime on the weekends. As a nanny I understand what it's like to be trusted to go into someone else's home and care for the people and animals that are their world. I treat every home I'm in with respect and want to ensure that my clients feel at peace knowing someone is coming into their home.

Amazing amazing amazing!!! The best pet sitter on this app! I’ve booked with several other pet sitters before, but Tera has truly been the best. I booked drop-in visits over Christmas and New Years and she went above and beyond each visit. She spent so much time with my cat and gave her so much love! She will treat your pet as if they are her own ❤️ Book with her if you have the opportunity to, she is amazing!

She was so sweet! Easy to communicate with, took all my concerns about having a sitter very seriously and helped me feel good about leaving my buddies with her, and the buddies LOVED her! My cats are usually really antisocial, but they came out and cuddled her, and my dog was happy too.

Christine saved our holiday stepping in very last minute and taking care of our two 5 month old kittens. One of them needed daily medicine and a lot of attention. She brought a calm and caring energy and was very professional and communicative. We are so grateful and would highly recommend hiring her to care for your pets!

My first time using a pet sitting service and Jessica came highly recommended by a family member. I couldn't have been happier with my choice. Jessica is very personable, reliable and trustworthy. I felt totally comfortable with her in my home and caring for Sonny. Communications and visit updates were extremely quick and detailed. I couldn't have been happier with my choice.
