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!

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!

Sarah was wonderful! She gave very detailed check-ins, shared photos of my cat that were better than any I have taken, and cared for my cat so he was comfortable. He was purring and cuddling- which he does when he really likes someone.

About: I grew up with pets but do not currently have my own which makes me a great pet sitter. I have experience with senior dogs/cats and with administering medication to them, including IV if it’s needed. I work from home (or your home) so puppy/kitten care is very possible in my schedule. For my personal health, going on walks is very important to me and I would love to walk your dog/cat. If your dog/cat needs to cuddle and sleep next to me that is okay too. As of right now, I can work remote whenever needed so I can spend time with your pet for the majority of the day unless I run to the store or for another errand. Occasionally I have short commitments out of the home. I can easily keep your pets indoors if needed (cats), or keep them outside within a fence. Whatever your safety instructions are I will follow them! I can take a dog collar off and on depending on if we are outside or inside if that is needed. Just let me know!

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats!! I worked at a boarding and doggy daycare center that gave me industry standard training . I’ve had to wrangle 7 dogs in a room before and still maintained calm and control. I personally have two cats I consider them my fur babies, I spoil them to the max!! When you entrust me with your babies I’ll treat them and care for them the same way you would. I’m a new real estate agent so I have tons of free time My schedule is 100% flexible. I will be able to respond to requests the same day. When It comes to my pets I’m very strict about feeding times and making sure that they have a consistent feeding schedule. I only groom my cats when absolutely necessary so that I don’t stress the out too much. I like to play with them as well I keep toys laying around the house for their enjoyment.

About: My family had a dog (Buddy) for 9 years. Through caring for him, I have learned to love caring for animals. I have also been a cat and dog sitter/walker for a number of my neighbors over the past 6 years. I am great with both high and low energy pets! I have a full time job, however I do have a lot of flexibility. I am happy to adjust my schedule to get to spend time with your pets! I sadly don’t currently have a pet. In the past, I enjoyed playing with my dog, taking him for walks, and spending as much time with him as possible. He had a lot of energy, especially for an older dog. I was always gentle and patient with him. I would bring my patience to any pet I watch. I truly just love animals and would be a great sitter for your pet.

Carolyn did a fantastic job with drop-ins while we were out of town for several days! She goes above and beyond and really cares about making pets totally comfortable. She did a super long play session with our dog when he was in the mood for that, too, which is one of his favorite things!

About: I have had dogs my whole life, mostly black labs. In 2019 my partner and I adopted and raised a Black Lab Pitbull mix puppy. I just really love all dogs, small, big, young and old. For my job I do not go into work until around 11 am. I am able to visit before work, and after work at around 6pm. I am a detail oriented person, so whatever rules or tasks you give me I will follow them to a t. I have had dogs in apartments and in home with and without fenced yards, so I know how to care for you pets in all situations.

Thank you so so much for not only looking after Kou, but also for the pictures and updates! Miranda is so wonderful to work with, and my dog took to her quickly during the meet and greet. Getting the daily updates on how things are going, what they did, and even any potential issues (old dog arthritis flaring up) helped settle any nerves about being so far away. Would definitely look to book with Miranda again for future needs!

Gabrielle was awesome with my cats! She's an excellent communicator, sending me notes and photos after each video, and she was observant and creative in meeting their needs. At the end of a two-day trip, she was able to earn the trust and cuddles of both boys. I look forward to hiring her again!

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!
