House Sitting in Arnold

“We are very picky with our pet sitter since our pets need a little bit of more attention than usual. Charlene was fantastic. She sent regular updates and even picked up our cat’s meds at the vet. Our kids ( we call them kids) were happy and looking healthy when we got home. The house was clean and organized, which is great. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking a great sitter. We will definitely book her again.”

“Jef did wonderful with our 100 lb dog! He house sat for us and was very respectful our of belongings; left the house clean. Our dog loved him, will definitely be using him in the future.”

“Jessie stayed with my pets for a week in December. She sent me pictures and updates each day which made it much easier to relax and enjoy my vacation. I was confident that my animals and my home were happy and being well taken care of. I am so very happy to have found Jessie through Rover and if I need a pet sitter in the future I will certainly call her again.”

“Where do I begin?! We are so grateful to have found Brittany. She is better than any pet sitter I could have dreamed of for our fur baby. She is communicative, detail oriented, active, fun, thorough and most importantly, safe. She takes pet sitting serious and doesn’t cut corners. We really appreciate her being so prompt and going above and beyond. She took our girl on walks, sent us daily pictures and texts to check in.. she even cleaned the house before she left including washing the bed sheets and towels!! Brittany is the first pet sitter we’ve ever trusted to be with our girl and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you Brittany for being such a trusted friend to our family. We love you!”

“Not enough words to express how great Trevor is with our pets!!! Our kitty Joy positively loves Trevor! We have an older cat that does come out to say hi to him. Trevor plays with the “girls” a lot. He has such an animal spirit and our girls are so calm when we come home. For 3 days our Joy kitty kept waiting at the window for him to come back!! Trevor takes pictures at “play time” and sends them on to us!!! Very helpful:-) Joy escaped once when Trevor was here. Now, I’m the ONLY ONE she’ll come to and he found her and let her lead him home!! Joy won’t even do that for my husband! If you want peace of mind when you leave for a trip Trevor is the right person. So conscientious and so aware of your animal and its needs. He will be our forever “cat man”. So much appreciation for him.”

“Rebekah is the best! My puppy went into her first heat cycle for the first time and she was there with her. She went and got her diapers and took care of it all! She is a rockstar.”

“Ericka was so kind and checked in every day to send us pics of the pets, also was kind enough to offer tips as she is an experienced vet tech! Really appreciated her ability to give our old cat multiple medications and deal with our very jumpy dog”

“Isabelle has watches my dogs several times! She was really good with them and they really liked her! She kept updated with daily reports and pictures! I would definitely use her again!”

“Tawnya was GREAT! She recently was a house sitter at our house for a week while looking over our dog & cats! She did a TREMENDOUS job! Tawnya went above and beyond on what we expected which we were greatly appreciated of! We will definitely be rebooking Tawnya in the future. If you need someone to trust and to watch your pets Tawnya is you sitter! Johnnie”

“Angie is and has always been a reliable, loving dog 'dog-person'. I've known Angie for 12+ years and during this time I've learned that she not only looks after her own dogs, but is aware of the well being of others. Recently Angie rescued a neighbor's dog when she noticed the neighbor wasn't home for many days. I have 2 dogs myself, and when Angie comes to visit, my dogs think she's wonderful! If I go out and leave my dogs with her, I know they're in capable, loving hands.”

“I'm hesitant to leave this review because if the word gets out about how great Secret is, she may be harder to book in the future! Secret came and stayed at my home with my cats while I was out of town for a wedding. She provided me with twice daily text updates, a few photos, and was responsive when I reached out to her. Upon my return, my kitties were happy and my home was clean. You would have never known someone had been staying here. Above all, she provided me with a peace of mind just knowing someone was here with my extraordinarily spoiled fur babies. I don't travel often, but I hope to be able to use Secret again in the future should the need arise.”

“I'm Claire's father. Before Claire was born, I was a regular guy with some knowledge of animals, but not a lot. Starting with a stray cat in our garage when she was three-years-old, who she kept and named Moonshadow, Claire was a natural at getting animals to trust her. Me, not so much because sometimes I didn't understand them, and whenever that happened they scared me a little. I was ready for them to react badly and had planned out my response ahead of time. The nervous animals could tell I was thinking this, and they stayed away. I watched little Claire control excited dogs at the park who were thrilled that someone understood them. I watched her calm scared stray cats who appreciated a rare petting and socializing. I started learning by copying Claire's technique of movement and body language to gain an animal's trust. It came together with practice, and you were either born with it or you learned it by example from an expert. Claire was born with it, and she has always been my go-to expert for animal problems.”

“Angie was very nice, qualified and efficient. Other than the pictures she sent us, we wouldn’t have been able to tell that she was in our home. The dogs seemed happy and content when we got home.”

About: I grew up on a ranch, so I have extensive experience with all types of birds, horses, goats, cats, and dogs. I’ve house/pet sit for family and friends over the years. I have one fur baby of my own that stays with my parents when I’m not home. Dogs are the sweetest animals to walk this earth, change my mind. I work three days a week traveling, so I typically have 4 days a week available. Can travel in the Calaveras and Tuolumne county areas. My schedule give me the flexibility to check in with your pet throughout the day. Unfortunately, I don’t offer pet sitting for my house as I live with friends. I’m happy to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home/ safe space. I am ever vigilant on walks and take into account things like daily temperature when scheduling or planning walks/outings.

“Cheyanna has been my dog sitter for more than three years. I travel regularly and she is always ready and reliable. My Blondie is an older dog with some continence issues. She is always excited to see Cheyanna and runs to her whenever I drop her off. I’ve never had any issues with her care. Cheyanna has a heart for dogs. She is kind and gentle. And she’s a walker. I know Blondie has the very best care with her. I recommend her to any dog owner. Drue”

“My pups made fast friends with Kian and it was a relief to have a responsive and responsible person care for my critters and house while I was away. I will be booking with Kian again!”

“Susan provided excellent care for our 2 small dogs while we were away for a long weekend. She sent photos, which we really enjoyed, and went above and beyond with tasks such as dog toy repair. We will definitely use her service in the future.”

“Your fur babies will be in the best care! Mari is not only a responsible and loving pet caregiver but also a true advocate for animals. In her free time, she dedicates herself to volunteering at a local animal shelter. Through her efforts, she has been instrumental in finding loving homes for dozens of animals over the years. Her passion and commitment are unmatched!”

“Tabi, Mia and Sadie let us know that Shuree took excellent care of our dogs for 7 days. She stayed with them and fed and medicated them. She took them for a walk and kept them safe. She was very responsive to my questions and sent cute photos of them. We will use her services again and can recommend her to others.”
