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! 🥰🐾

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!

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!

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.
