Top rated Avalon house sitters

“Our 14YO female heeler bonded immediately with Aarti and she was probably sad when we returned. I like Aarti because she returns texts and requests in a very timely manner. We got photos from her every day which helped to ease any anxiety we had about using a new dog sitter. Her background as a vet assistant also eased our minds with our dog's history of Cushings disease. We travel a fair amount and are looking to have Aarti care for our girl in the future. Five stars for sure.”


“Absolutely fabulous! Rachel stepped in last minute when another sitter fell through due to an emergency. We spoke on the phone and she asked great questions, then she arrived at our home to meet the pets when she said she would. From the moment Rachel was responsible for our pets, I felt confident knowing they were in good hands. We received daily updates and pictures. She played with each of them in their own ways. She even left our home spotless with towels and sheets cleaned (not expected AT all!!). Highly recommend Rachel for any pet sitting needs you may have!”


“Rachel was a wonderful sitter and did a great job of taking care of our pup and our home. She was great at communicating and keeping us updated! Will definitely use her again!”


“Ethanee was so great with our anxious small dog Holly, who also just happened to injure herself right before our trip out of the country, so she needed medication and special treatment during our week away. Ethanee was communicative, sending us lots of updates, and left our house in great shape. Holly has a hard time with new people, but seemed to warm up to Ethanee right away! We felt so relieved that she was in good hands, and wouldn't hesitate to book Ethanee again!”


“Jamie was amazing! She took great care of our Littles (2 chihuahuas). They were so content! She sent lots of photos every day and texted me often with reports. Highly recommend!”


“Geneva was super communicative, considerate, and attentive to the needs of my dog Zelee! I appreciated how much thought and care she put into her stay with Zelee. I would absolutely recommend her services and would trust her to watch Zelee again.”


“Gave my two cats lots of attention and great care. Regina sent lots of updates and pictures. I was not worried one bit about if my cats were being properly cared for while I was away.”


“Tracy was immaculate. We contacted her last minute because our usual sitters are no longer available. She was so quick to respond and fit all our standards for great care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went to a trip for 6 days. She gave daily updates with extensive details so that I wouldn't miss out on anything going on. Her passion for dogs shines and we cannot thank her enough for the love she provided while we were away. I highly recommend Tracy!”


“Jace was fantastic! My Aussie immediately loved her.. so appreciated all the pics of the walks and play and snuggles. Felt completely comfortable with Jace in our house, you couldn’t even tell she was there! Definitely will rebook!”


“We are so happy to have met Melanie! The pack loves her and appreciate her care and love. We can’t wait to see her again - when the humans go on their next adventure.”


“Gabriella was nice to have house sitting. When you don't have to worry about your fur babies when you're on vacation, it makes your vacation that much better. Would absolutely book Gabriellla again if we had the chance!”


“Danielle did an amazing job, we are so grateful for her watching Cookie and Molly. We were especially grateful for the fact that she confirmed the job, was reliable, and that she sent lots of pictures and updates (which was really nice for an anxious pet mama). She also checked in with us before leaving and washed the sheets. We would definitely book with her again.”


“Sheri did such an amazing job taking care of my house and animals! She was extremely communicative- I loved getting frequent updates and photos. She is very kind, compassionate, and responsible- I would definitely book her again!”


About: I have pet and house sat many friends over the years. I am extremely responsible and dependable. I have raised and cared for both dogs and cats! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so it's very easy for me to move around town and be in another location during the week. I prefer to take care of pet's in my clients home because I have three dogs at home. They are friendly, but I think my house is shrinking.

“LOVE LOVE LOVE Erica! She was greatly attentive to the needs of my dogs and an incredible house sitter. Home was clean and pups were happy! Definitely recommend and will request again!”



About: Patience, communication, tenderness and consistency have led me to strong relationships with my furry friends. I am extremely detail oriented and very trustworthy. I have fully trained 3 dogs. One was 70lbs. I currently do not have any pets. Nothing can make me happier than hiking adventures. I love to run down mountain trails, watch birds and prairie dogs. Dogs eyes catch details I would have missed. Dogs are every bit as complex and brilliant and unique as we are. I am very excited to be making new dog friends here. Even though dogs are kids at heart they still keep me wise. Another cool thing about dogs is when you them give your time you are really giving to a community because dogs tend to recycle the love they receive. They have a way of radiating it out to every living creature that they meet. I've learned the ones that love quietly can love the hardest. I am very flexible. I work remotely as a paralegal and graphic designer. I am willing to work with your schedule on a case by case basis. My attention and care is of the highest caliber and I pride myself on be able to fully customize my care for each individual pet whether they have special needs or not.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a small child. I have worked in the pet care industry since I was 18 years old and currently work in Emergency Veterinary Medicine. I have a lot for pets and understand how important they are to us as people. I’m looking to meet some new four legged friends and make an little extra income when I can. I have myself a 4 year old Male/Neutured Staffordshire Terrier and a 9 year old Golden/Rottwieler Mix. My Rotti doesn’t come on adventures but if you are looking for playdates, my Staffy loves making friends! My schedule is varied, I care for my human family, my own fur babies and reptiles, while working full time in Emergency Veterinary Care. I do work 12 hour shifts 3 nights a week. Caring for your companion would be an important part of my schedule and I am willing to commit to the very important responsibility of walking, feeding, and spending time with your pets. Paying attention to details on how the pet parent already does things and trying to maintain a similar routine in walks, commands, or activities. It reinforces any training already in place, avoids any confusion or frustration on the pets side, and builds a better relationship between myself and the pets to help reduce any anxiety that comes with a new person around.

“If I could give Brianna 10 stars, I would. She sent me updates and asked the important questions through my trip away. I left my space untidy and felt awful about it. I returned to a pristine and clean space with happy pets. She is the best rover I’ve had in 2.5 years here. It was worth every penny.”

She also helped to care for my 10 year old Boxer Pit Bull mix, quickly making friends with him although he is very shy. Tatiana was able to make instant friends with him and did an exemplary job of ensuring he was fed and given his heart worm medication. Thank you for the amazing care of my beloved fur babies.”
