“Gabe is so kind, so good with Nolan and always is professional and communicates quickly and keeps us updated. Couldn’t recommend Gabe enough, he’s the best with our fur baby.”


“I came hope to happy critters and a clean house. Gracie didn't even yowl at me when I got home, A sure sign she wasn't missing me too badly! :-) Additionally, Camille filled in almost at the last minute. Highly recommend.”


“Killian was great!! He watched Milo got an overnight visit. He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Killian to any dog owner. Bonus: He even took Milo on a walk”


“Cahill was super communicative and did a great job watching our animals while we were out of the country! I would definitely recommend him for your animals!”


“Robyn is fantastic! She took the time to get to know us and our dogs before the stay. She house and dog sat for us for 12 nights. She communicated every day and often, which is my preference. I love my fur babies and it’s hard to be away. Robyn did a wonderful job and the dogs adore her! Robyn also cleaned house and did the laundry- even though that wasn’t a requirement for us. She went above and beyond!! I highly recommend Robyn.”


“Riley is wonderful! She is experienced, knowledgeable, conscientious and has a kind, patient manner. Riley stayed with my big, senior Alaskan Malamute for 6 days/nights in my home while I was out of town and did a fantastic job with both pet sitting and house sitting. Riley was very communicative before her stay to make sure she was familiar with food/medicine schedules and all other routines. While I was away, Riley texted and sent pictures daily and it was very clear that my Malamute was totally happy, comfortable, and content. I arrived home to a calm, relaxed dog who I’m sure is hoping that Riley returns soon!”


About: Hi, I'm Deanna, 34 years old born and raised in SLO 💚I've been a devoted pet lover my whole life. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals like rabbits and hamsters. I'm comfortable with basic grooming, litter box and habitat cleaning, and administering medications. I'm also a firm believer in providing lots of playtime and cuddles, ensuring your pets feel safe and loved while you're away. I will also send updated photos of your sweet 🐶 angel! I'm currently working a few days a week. So plenty of time for walks and cuddles with your fur baby 🥰 or if high energy breed-we can do runs! Always feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring a safe environment, exercise, and potentially grooming and veterinary care! If needing to be taken to Veterinarian appointmen we can make it happen!

About: Whether it’s for a fun walk, a playful drop in visit or even a longer overnight stay, I’m ready to help make sure your furry friends (and home) are well cared for. You can absolutely trust that I will treat your animals with the same care that I do my own. I’ve been pet sitting and farm/ranch sitting on and off for over 25 years, so I bring a lot of years of experience with me. I have a lifetime of experience as a pet owner – currently I have one sassy Pug, a loveable Golden Retriever, a very finnicky kitty and a horse. When it comes to pet care, I’m extremely responsible, attentive and reliable. I have experience administering medications, caring for senior pets and those with special needs and diets, I’ve fostered puppies and kittens, given vaccinations, handled animals with behavioral challenges and I’ve even managed businesses related to animal care. I’m self-employed with an established local business. I have a flexible schedule, making me available for everything from drop-in’s to walks, and even overnight house/pet sitting. I look forward to meeting you AND your furry (or scaly, feathered, etc.) family members! I am self employed, so I have a flexible schedule. I'm typically able to accommodate pretty much any schedule that a pet parent needs - including drop in visits, walking and even overnight house/pet sitting. I'm also comfortable with puppies and senior dogs/cats, as well as administering medications and special diets. I'm a very detail oriented person, so whatever routine that you have I can easily adopt when I'm caring for your pets. I'm comfortable handling dogs with ALL different personalities with care and compassion. I'm a very happy and upbeat person, but I also have a calming nature, so I get along with all animals that I come across.

“Journey took great care of our two boxers while we were away for the weekend! She sent updates with pics often which I really appreciated. We came home to two happy pups and a very clean house! We look forward to her watching our pups again soon! Highly recommend!”


“Veronica was a wonderful house and dog sitter for our two dogs. She is very trustworthy and communicator. We will definitely be using her again!”


“Sandy was absolutely a life saver for us and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again! We had our first sitter cancel last minute and she accepted our request in s very short time, which was very accommodating as we were from out of town, staying at a hotel, had 2 dogs, and we’re going to be out late! Being nervous about leaving our fur babies, she put us at ease as she sent multiple detailed updates with photos, I was very pleased with that interaction. We will definitely be using her again!!”


About: making sure every pet feels safe and loved is my number 1 priority! I have cared for dogs since i was a child and several years of experience caring for cats as well as farm animals! I would love to help your pet get in some play time, cuddles, walks, grooming, meals, meds, or help you with pet related chores and errands! I work monday through friday and am available for pet care in the weekday afternoons and evenings. I am openly available on saturdays and sundays. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat each pet like they’re my own—with love, patience, and close attention to their individual needs and routines. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their usual feeding schedules, giving them plenty of playtime, and offering lots of affection (or space, if that’s what they prefer!). I’m attentive to their body language and any signs of stress or discomfort, and I always keep communication open with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos. Whether it’s giving medications, going for long walks, or simply providing companionship, I focus on keeping pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you're away.

“Paul was great! The dogs asked me to give a 5-star review, and they were happy and well when we returned home. I was able to relax during my time away--Paul communicated well and asked clarifying questions when needed. He even rolled with weird situations like our neighbors having a huge tree removed unexpectedly and dealt with the resulting debris. Paul followed all of our instructions well and the house was left tidy and clean. We also appreciated that he was able to respond to our short notice request!”


About: experience with both puppies and senior pets. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s basic training, medication, or just lots of love and playtime, I tailor care to each pet’s needs. I have a flexible schedule that fits easily into my daily and weekly routine, so I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. I care for pets by following their usual routines closely—whether in my home or the client’s. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with lots of love, playtime, and attention. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

About: Pets are selfless creatures who deserve unconditional love and care. I know it feels stressful leaving your pet while taking a trip and worrying if they’re okay but have no fear I am here! I will follow routines, give extra attention and remind them that they are still loved! Pets are not property they are a piece of our hearts and I’ll never treat taking care of your pet as a task but rather a pleasure! I currently work part time at a local hospital but I’m always free in the afternoon at 1pm and on some mornings. I usually take walks or hikes after work and there’s no better company to do this with than a 4 legged friend! I have plenty of space inside and a small outdoor patio outside perfect for a small dog. When caring for animals outside of my home I like to do 2 check ins a day to make sure they don’t they they’ve been forgotten. I always stick to the animals routine so they don’t get confused. We will walk,play, cuddle and relax as much as the animal desires!

About: I've taken care of cats since I was a kid and have always loved them very deeply. I've also tended to small and medium sized dogs, but cats are my favorite :) mine's name is Honey and she's almost two years old! I have experience with intricate feeding regimes, deep cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats, and keeping their areas clean and tidy. I'm knowledgeable when it comes to their body language and moods and just want them to have the best time while you're away. I'm a freelance graphic designer currently taking a gap year before pursing an MFA! Meaning my schedule is fully open on weekdays and weekends, featuring plenty of time to care for cats of all kind. I make sure to update my clients routinely or as much as they personally request. Additionally, I greatly respect my client's home and pet areas, doing my role in keeping things neat and orderly.

About: I’ve always felt a special connection to animals, and have worked with and cared for cats, dogs, horses, and small adorable rodents since I was about 10. Although the photos here are almost exclusively of cats, I have years of experience in dog-sitting for friends and neighbors and caring for and training my own horses. I’ve also had the delightful and quirky experience of living with house cats. Since I don’t have the good fortune to have a pet of my own at the moment, I would welcome the opportunity to spend time with yours! Rates may vary depending on the specifics of your situation. Please message me with details for an exact price. I’m currently working part-time on a flexible schedule, which means that I can adapt to your needs. I can be available to overnight with your pets, depending on your location. On the days, when I’m working my other job, I’m available early in the morning and after 3:30 in the afternoon. I believe in creating a calm and trusting environment for your pets, which means lots of cuddles and play. I am comfortable crating your pet and administering medication as needed.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, but also had other animals such as geckos, turtles, hamsters and chinchillas! I have a love for all animals and understand they each have their own different needs. I have pet sit for my neighbors senior dogs, and worked with a cat rescue for 5 years with kittens, momma cats and older cats. I am comfortable administering oral medication for cats if needed. I currently teach swim lessons during the days, but have availability at nights or during my break to come check in on pets as needed Making sure they are getting fed well, getting enough play and exercise time and making sure they are clean and brushed. I will ensure pets happy and healthy in their environment by making my own presence feel comfortable to them.

About: Aloha! I am a huge animal lover from Hawaii! I have two pups of my own that I raised healthy and happy. They are both really friendly and energetic and only one of them lives with me at the moment. I have a fenced backyard! Im all about love, I see animals as children that always need love and affection. I’d be more than happy to even train them with treats. Like sit, shake, lay down, and stay. I’ll always send picture updates because I know how it is being away from your little one. A little about me: I was born and raised on the Big Island of Hawaii. I’ve raised my own pets since I was 10 and always been taught to treat animals with love.

About: I will go the extra mile to make sure you feel your animal is cared for! I am committed to the comfort of your pet! I am a teacher with the summer off so I have much more time these days! I am not able to have a dog of my own currently but I love dogs and animals! I have dog parks near me! I have a fenced in tiny back yard with a nice grass area and a good neighborhood for walking around!
