“Felt like I was leaving the kittens with family. Melissa is very detail orientated and equally kind and caring. She took time to let our girls be themselves (one likes to be more outside and the other outside) and to care for them like they were her own. She also brought in our mail and let our home just like we left it for her. So appreciative of her time spent with our pets. It’s always hard to leave your home and animals and trust that someone will treat your home and pets as you would. If you want that type of care, Melissa is your sitter. We are looking forward to working with her again soon! Thank you Melissa!”


About: I currently work at a dog kennel in San Luis Obispo. I volunteer at the department of animal services and walk dogs that are available for adoption and I’ve worked in 3 different veterinary hospitals I have a part time job in San Luis Obispo , so I’m available in the afternoons and evenings. My days off are usually pretty open. I have 2 fenced in patios. So pets can go outside and be protected. My personal cat is able to go outside and get some sun.

“With super short notice too, and at a super busy and stressful moment for me, Colleen made me feel so at ease and made sure my pup was safe and happy! He had just gotten surgery, and I had a pop up work event and personal stuff happening, and I was full able to trust her to give my Max his meds and make sure he was staying safe. Thank you so much Colleen! If I need someone I know who to call!”

About: I've been a dog lover my entire life. I currently have a 16-year-old blind and deaf Boston Terrier who means the world to me! (That's him in my profile picture.) I volunteer at our local Animal Shelter (see attached pix) and work with a variety of dogs, large and small, several times a week. I would love to meet your dog/dogs, should you need to be away from home. I volunteer at my church and at my local animal shelter, so my scheduling availability will vary depending on my other responsibilities and time commitments. We will know immediately if there's a connection between me and your dogs. I'm always willing to spend time getting to know your dog and earning his/her trust.

About: I have helped raise a puppy, I stay active and love to take doggie friends on walks! I have always loved cats and cats have always loved me. I will be sure to give them lots of pets and even a free yoga class. I am currently part time and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule at the moment. I am happy to arrange a schedule that works for us all . I will clean up after your furry ones and allow for the animals to be in their proper/preferred environment and respectfully follow any requests you may have.

About: In past I have had animals that were in need of medicine that had to be given. Taken care of pets from few months to elderly age. I currently work at home so Have flexibility to come and feed , water and let out for potty time in morning time and spend late afternoon and evening with pet. I have sat for friend dags in past in home . I currently have two cats and not allowed to have dogs in my home. I have taken care of pets by going to there home and feeding, walking and playing with their pets.

About: Getting to know each furry-one’s personality is foundational to providing personalized care. Whether your pet is playful, curious, cautious, mischievous, or lazy, I'll get to know their quirks and make sure they are purring or wagging their tails when you get home! Keep reading for dog care, and for cats click on ‘View fill cat experience’ below. From growing up with ranch dogs to walking neighborhood dogs, spending time with dogs has always been a treat! Caring for your precious pup through play time, walks (with your permission), meals, and scratches behind the ear would be my honor. Experience includes caring for outdoor and indoor dogs in an array of sizes, ages, and energy with delightfully unique personalities and play preferences. Evenings and weekends are best for shorter visits when you're out to dinner, on a day trip, or celebrating away from home. For longer overnight care in your home, I'm typically available to care for your furry loved-one from 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 a.m. Monday - Friday, and most of the day on Saturdays and Sunday. When in your home, I will treat your pet and your space with respect. This includes following all your house rules such as no dogs on the couch, no cats on the counter, shoes off in your home, etc. Creating normalcy in behavior is important for your furry loved-one to know they are safe and for you to know that bad habits won't be encouraged.

“They were absolutely amazing and couldn’t recommend them enough! They sent me pictures and updates of my fur baby while I was away and I’m so glad I left her in such good hands!! 5 stars, 10/10 would book again!”


About: I’ve taken care of both my own pets including cats ,dogs, chickens, and horses my whole life and have also looked after other people’s animals that needed special attention Currently I have some extra free time away from work that I would love to spend with animals that need some extra love and affection I am really just looking to care for the well-being of the pet because I know they are just as sensitive as us and deserve to feel cared for when their human can’t!

“Michelle is awesome and was great with my dog. She sent photos while I was out and kindly stayed an extra half hour. I’m so glad she was available when I needed a sitter. 10/10!”


About: I work FT, weekdays 7:30am-4:30pm, but available all other hours, and all weekend. I'm in Morro Bay, an Oregonian import, and living on a sailboat. If you don't want your dog on the water, no problem, we'll go to the beach, hikes, and dog parks. I'm happy to spend all my time with dogs, hence the low low rates. I don't mind lazy dogs, especially if house sitting, but I'd prefer the owners who want there dog to get as much fun and attention as we can so we can both be active together. I have had a dog in my life for over 30 years, I recently volunteered at a Malaysian Dog rescue (cared for 13 feral pooches). My former partner was a dog trainer (so I have extensive knowledge in the field and back up advice on hand) and our dog was a service dog that we trained. Dogs naturally like me, and I'm able to lure even the most timid dogs by way of patient and persistent love. That's why they always eventually trust me, because I genuinely love them. All of them (bad repped too, most of my dogs have been pit mixes). I'm also a great fixer and handyman if needed. Weekends are wide open, Week nights too, but weekdays I work 7-5. Weekends are wide open, Week nights are too, but weekdays I work 7-5. I'm on a sailboat, so if its home stay, pooch needs to be able to be lifted (under 60lbs). Otherwise there will be minivan rides, walks, or park play.

About: I possess a deep and unflappable care for all animals-- big or small. I have owned several animals, from cats to dogs and now I am often the friend that asks others if I can take their dog for an adventure. I am experienced with training and dog care for all ages. I am currently starting my own business so I am home often, which allows me to provide the best and most intentional service for your lovely animals. I do not have other animals, so your pet will be my priority. I have a fenced back yard and I am centrally located in Bend, Oregon for tons of walks and play time.

Denise p.
“Denise took care of our dog Geordi for 5 days in her home. We felt very comfortable leaving Geordi with her. Denise took very good care of him knowing he was missing his parents. She kept him on his walking schedule and gave him a car ride to Pet Smart for a new toy. Geordi had no complaints.”


Alexis M.
“Alexis is a caring and responsible person who makes quick, lasting connections with our pets. Not only has she owned and fostered cats and dogs her entire life, but she has also provided pet sitting for Homer, our very special (and now elderly) cat on many occasions. Homer gets overstimulated easily, can come across as grumpy, likes to boss his people around, is indoor/outdoor, and fundamentally prefers males. And yet, during our 6-week cross country trip, Alexis stayed at our home and regularly sent photos of Homer happily (so happily I occasionally told my husband "he doesn't do that for us!") hanging out with her and really not missing us at all! Having been around cats forever, Alexis knows what to be concerned about and what is normal. She gives the right amount of attention, and we come home to a well-adjusted cat. I highly recommend Alexis for your pet sitting needs.”


Hilary & Richard M.

“They were absolutely amazing and couldn’t recommend them enough! They sent me pictures and updates of my fur baby while I was away and I’m so glad I left her in such good hands!! 5 stars, 10/10 would book again!”

Steve H.

“Absolutely amazing. Very professional. Showed up on time. Tux enjoyed his stay with Steve!”
