“Estela was very professional and friendly towards our dog. Somehow our dog instantly bonded with her and even though he has separation anxiety, with Estela he was quite comfortable and calm. I would like to request her service again.”

“Joy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! This was our first time having a dog sitter come to our home, and Joy made the experience so comfortable and stress-free. I could tell right away that Skye was treated with so much care and love. Joy kept us updated, took great care of her during walks, and was very attentive and thoughtful. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🥰🐾”

“Lynn was a godsend for my family and took amazing and very loving care of our very active golden doodle. I would not hesitate to rebook her again. She’s very trustworthy, communicative and left the house in tip top condition. She’s so personable that I can see her becoming my friend.”

“Juliana did a great job! I will absolutely contact her again to watch our dog. She was very prompt at communication and made sure that I stayed updated on how my dog was doing (including pictures). She left our house clean and was incredibly respectful. Thanks, Juliana!!”

About: I’ve been a pet parent myself for 10 years, caring for my own dog while looking after multiple cats. I’ve looked after friends and families animals so I am very comfortable stepping into new environments. I’ve gained hands on experience with pets that require medication (including pills, liquids, injections, etc). I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior animals who require a little extra patience. I love meeting each pet where they’re at. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle session or an energetic walk, i’ll match your pets energy making sure they feel loved and happy. I’m based in East San Jose and happy to travel a bit farther!! I currently am training for my upcoming hockey season! Monday-Thursday I’m available for morning visits before 1 PM (as early as 7 AM), and for afternoon/evening visits anytime after 3PM. On weekends, I’m fully open and can do multiple visits, walks, or overnight stays. I will be going back to college in Salt Lake, Utah at the beginning of August (August 4th) and plan on switching services to that location! I plan my week around confirmed bookings and make sure your pets care never overlaps with something else. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable. I always leave the home clean and like to send updates (whether it’s a text or a photo) after visits so you know how things are going. If anything comes up (a change in behavior, a mess, or something out of the ordinary), I’ll let you know immediately. I treat every pet and home like i’d want mine to be treated.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for 5 years and counting. From their routine feeds, litter box cleaning, and play time, I’ve assisted several cats with their daily care. I’ve walked and fed dogs for almost 2 years from sizes small to medium ! i have a flexible and easy schedule to work with as I’m a current college student with many open availabilities. My schedule is fairly open and flexible ! I am a college student with just one class twice a week, so generally any time or day is perfectly acceptable for me <3 Besides Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-11 AM, my schedule is open and flexible! Contact me for further info. I tend to the pet’s every need provided by the owner’s instructions! I make sure to feed, clean after, and to definitely interact and play with your furry friend (as long as it’s fine with you and your pet). I don’t leave any pet unattended nor unstimulated, they still need love even when you’re gone!
About: Hello! I recently lost my 14 yr old dachshund and 14 yr old shih tzu and am taking a step to share my time and space with new fur friends! Currently working from home 2-3 days per week and changes weekly. Open to coordinating schedules to align to what’s best for you and your fur baby. I have a fenced in yard with no other animals in or around us. I had my 2 dogs for 14 years and am comfortable with most anything your pet will need. Medicine, exercise, crating
“Mingming was incredible! We needed her to make a house visit while we were away on vacation, and she made sure to visit our pup at all the right times of the day for play, feeding, and check-ups! She sent us videos and pictures to keep us updated as well. Our pup loves Mingming! Thank you again!!”

“Awesome service we’re very happy with the way everything went. Tiana was very communicative and sent us pictures. She took the dogs out for walks and fed them on time and gave them their medication and of course gave them all the lovin they needed while we were away. We were very happy with her service.”

About: i’ve very organized and responsible about the pets! Consider it as a very big responsibility. I require the bed for my pet children and will offer the same level of care and protection animals are able to touch my heart and make my heart shine. they very special in this world and i’m so easy to interact and get to know them. my pets are always kept safe, never left alone more then 24hours, under constant supervision from my indoor cameras and their persitter. I’m attentive to their behaviour and always take action about anything uncommon about it
“Jamie took great care of my dog and made me feel comfortable while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, kind, patient, and very sweet with him. My dog seemed happy and well cared for, and it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

“Haley was extremely responsible and responsive. We felt very comfortable with her ever since our first meeting. When we came home, everything was in its place and we could barely tell she was even here. Bella appeared well cared-for.”

“Kaili was great! She watched our two large dogs for two nights at our home, and we couldn’t have been happier. Our dogs have a lot of energy and definitely come with their own quirks, but she handled them so well. She kept us updated throughout her stay, was very respectful of our home, and left everything clean and tidy. We would absolutely book with her again. 5/5 stars!”

“Yet again, Denise held down this furry fort while we were away and we appreciated her patience and attentiveness to the needs of our four kids. All was well and welcoming upon our return home and the kids were relaxed and not at all troubled by the fact that we l had been away which is exactly as it should be! Thank you for taking care of them and our home in our absence!”
“From the moment we met Cassidy, we knew she would be a great fit for our Siberian Husky. Cassidy stayed at our house and took care of Loki. We felt comfortable knowing that Loki was being well taken care of while we were gone for 5 days. Cassidy was in communication with us, sending us pictures of Loki while we were gone. It made our family happy, knowing that Loki was being well cared for. In addition to caring for Loki she also watered our plants in our year. We hope to use her again in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, which has shaped my understanding of their needs, routines, and personalities. I’ve always been involved in caring for my own family pets, including feeding, walking, and giving them consistent attention. Beyond that, I’ve pet sat overnight and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, family, and others. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong sense of responsibility and feel comfortable caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible and open schedule, including weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to help with last-minute needs. I’d love the chance to spend time with and care for your pets! When taking care of pets I like to keep things consistent with their usual routine by making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get regular walks, and plenty of attention and love. I aim to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away!
“Rachel was wonderful with our energetic little dog. She left the house cleaner than we left it, gave her lots of activity and love, and was an excellent communicator! I felt so safe having her with Little Bear!”

Austin is a very enthusiastic person for pet caring. He communicates very active for usual or unusual discoveries and very experienced in providing good support for our lovely furry family member when we were not home. Our dog loves him and you can feel his great passion when interacting with our dog.

Sookie had a great time with Catherine! Catherine was kind, professional, and followed our care instructions for Sookie to the tea. She sent lots of photos and videos that eased our minds while we were away. We will be booking with her again soon! Thank you Catherine!

Savannah has been such a blessing to our family. For the first time ever, I’ve felt comfortable leaving my 16 year old dog with someone and go on a trip with my entire family. I know my dog is well taken care of with Savannah. She is loving and caring which puts my dog at ease and she is on top of communication, putting me at ease. Thank you for everything!

Vanessa was a wonderful house and pet sitter! She asked all the right questions and took such good care of our dog while we were gone. Our Paisley has a hard time being left alone and she was very considerate of that and even went the extra mile to get her to eat when she was being finicky. We received plenty of updates and she left our house looking as it was when we left. We'd book her again and our dog Paisley absolutely loved her! The cat Leela loved her too and she's pretty aloof!

Kait was fantastic and she came last minute to take care of Zeus after the sitter I booked was a no show.She took good care of Zeus while we are away and gave me updates about him daily. Since ha had a leg injury she was very vigilant about his leg condition and updated me on a daily basis about his improvement. The most important thing was when our flight back got canceled.She immediately came back and stayed the night and took care of him even after she left.She was a life saver because we had one less thing to worry about amidst all the chaos.Will surely book her again.

Paola was right on time to pick up my puppy and sent me regular updates of everything. She accommodated my weird schedule and did it last minute with only one day notice. My puppy is only 6 months and has TONS of energy. Everything was fine in my home and she even cleaned up my puppy’s messes from being left overnight in the house..I. Would definitely use her services again.

Vivien did great with our hyper (and somewhat anxious) pup when we had to leave for a weekend. She communicated great with us & was patient & sweet with our dog, who can be a handful! Our pup absolutely loved her. She left our home spotless and we will definitely use her services more in the future!
