“Hannah was an absolute pleasure to work with. Weims are a very energetic breed and she fit right in. She came on time (even early) and was very courteous with my pup. My pup is very selective and loved her. I can’t thank her for all of the updates and kindness. Would 10/10 recommend !”

“Audriana was great with our dog! Took really good care of him and our house, kept us in the loop, sent pictures and videos throughout our time away, and even cleaned up the house some for us during her stay as well! Highly recommend.”


“Stephanie was very caring with my senior dog, asked for directions on how to best care for her and kept me updated with pictures. She’s conscientious and caring, must haves for a dog sitter. 💕”

About: I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to provide patient, individualized care. I was first exposed to animals through personal experience, having had my fair share of dogs, cats, and even birds– and have provided plenty of care to the pets of personal friends and family friends. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, including senior pets who may need a calmer environment, extra patience, or medication reminders. I also understand the importance of communication and keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. El cuidado de mascotas encaja muy bien en mi rutina diaria y semanal. Me organizo para cumplir con los horarios de alimentación, paseos, juegos y visitas según las necesidades de cada mascota. Soy flexible y comprometida, y me aseguro de brindar atención constante y de calidad durante cada visita o servicio. Me tomo muy en serio la seguridad y el bienestar de las mascotas. Sigo cuidadosamente las instrucciones del dueño, incluyendo rutinas, alimentación y cualquier indicación especial. Mantengo los espacios limpios, ordenados y seguros, y siempre estoy atenta a las señales de estrés o incomodidad de la mascota.
“Brandie you are amazing! Mishka and Nuggy had a great time with you. The home looks better than how we left it. Loved the daily videos/picture check ins. Hope to book you again in the future!”


About: I’ve never not had pets. My family has almost always had dogs, and I took care of a hamster and cat when I was younger. Today, my wife and I have two poodle-mix dogs (Togepi and Raisin) and two guinea pigs (Betty and Gertie). We got Togepi when he was just a couple months old. We got Raisin from a shelter in 2024. I’ve helped my wife with her Rover sitting since since 2023—she’s a 5-star sitter. I just graduated from law school and am studying for the California bar exam this summer. I’m available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. My wife plans to do Mondays-Thursdays if you need someone earlier in the week. I’m happy to care for your pet(s) however you’d like. If you want me to stay in your home while you’re away, I can do so on most Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.
About: Ive taken care of dogs of various different sizes and breeds over the years. Neightbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am working full time M-Thursday and may have limitations during these days. However, depending on the location I can proivde check-ins or walks on my lunch break. I work from home on Friday's, and am pretty flexable Friday though Sunday. I have one cat residing in my residence and can board if your dog or cat is not aggressive. I have a hug fenced in yard that is great for running and playing. Otherwise I am happy to accomidate the providing primary care at your residence. Depending on the length of time I would consider staying at your residence if requested and would required a meet and greet prior to services.
“WOW!!!! What an amazing person and such great care taken for my spoiled babies (2 dogs/1 kitty). I have some tough dogs to make comfortable and what a pro you were to make sure they were loved, comfortable, and so well taken care of while we were out of town. I will for sure book again, I can not thank you enough for dealing with these barkers.”

“Johnna was a wonderful and attentive caretaker for our little fur family! We got lots of updates and pics which we loved. She was able to come by a couple times before we left so our doggo could get to know her and her super sweet pup, Bonnie. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

“Mariah was absolutely wonderful while we went away for the long weekend. She managed our two dogs and their detailed feeding schedules without issue! She did a great job of looking after the house and I came back to a clean home (which is the best after returning from a trip)! We also received informative updates and super cute photos of the dogs. We are so thankful to Mariah for showing our pups so much love and care this weekend and will definitely be booking again! 🤍”


About: I am a veterinary assistant with 7 years experience in the field with dogs and cats of many temperaments. I understand signs of illness, stress, and I can provide attentive care. I have a true love and care for all animals. I work as a veterinary assistant 4 days a week, but am available Sunday, Monday and Wednesdays all day. I can also do drop in visits after work on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. I am able to accommodate your needs as a pet owner if your pet needs to be taken outside for potty or play, administer medications, and feed your pet according to your schedule.
“Morgan was fantastic. She took great care of Scout and sent pictures and updates often. Also, she was so flexible and caring when my travel was unexpectedly extended. I needed Morgan to stay an extra day and I really appreciate that she juggled around her prior commitments to make sure Scout was happy. It took a huge weight off my mind to know that Scout was in good hands with her. She took great care of my house too!”

About: I have dog sat my neighbors dog before multiple times, coming in to feed him, walk him 3x a day, play with him, and much more. Although I do not have dogs, I have grown up my whole life with cats. I have grown up with people who own dogs my whole life as well. I have also volunteered at a shelter and had cleaned out the dog kennels! I am able to be a pet sitter for the summer, as I will not be having any classes. I am free most the time, as long as you tell me 2 weeks in advance to insure that I can watch your dog or cat! I will make sure that your house is protected and safe, along with your dog. Of course I would lock all the doors and windows, as well as making sure that your furry friend is not in distress. Feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they do not need to go to the bathroom, and their safety is my top priority.
“We booked Alex over the holidays to watch our two dachshunds. I was super anxious about leaving them. I work from home so our dogs are not used to be left for long periods of time. Or youngest dog also needs someone to really be paying attention to him asking to go out or else he will have an accident inside. Alex immediately put my mind at ease with detailed and frequent updates. She sent tons of photos (which I greatly appreciated) and it was obvious from her updates that our dogs loved her. She also let me know she was giving training treats every time the younger dachshund would go potty outside to reinforce his potty training. She left the house immaculate and also left an adorable Christmas present full of dog treats which was such a nice thing to come home to!! 10/10 dog sitting experience for us. I highly recommend Alex for all of your dog sitting needs!”

“Alexis is fantastic! Immediately I noticed she had a nice peaceful energy, which is really important for my nervous girl. She gave me unprompted morning and evening updates with pictures, and never once did I worry or wonder how things were going. My home was also just as clean as I’d left it when I returned. Will absolutely be booking with her again, and for the long run! Thank you Alexis, Ms. Millie was so happy spending time with you! <3”

Brandie stayed at my house for 4 days with my dog and 3 cats. She left the house in great condition and even watered my plants and brought in my mail. She is a natural with animals. My dog developed a tight connection with her and she did a great job taking care of him even in the very warm weather. She was great with the cats as well; playing with them and tending to their needs. I appreciate that she kept the dog and cats apart as they do not like each other. I highly recommend Brandie for your pet sitting and dog walking needs.

my dog had the best time with raquel!!! she went above and beyond and made me feel at ease when she was with my fur baby! poppy was comfortable, relaxed and extremely happy the whole time! definitely would recommend raquel to anyone looking for a responsible trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter/house sitter!!

Mariah was great. My cat went up to her right away during the meet and greet. It was great to have someone who also has cats and knows how to interact with them. She sent pictures during her stay. I also feed feral cats and she was willing to help put food out for them as well. House was clean when we got back and she washed all of my many containers of food which was a nice surprise. I appreciate her attention to details. I would definitely recommend.

Jennifer took excellent care of my home & pets while I was traveling. I appreciate the updates and photos she sent to keep me posted on how they were doing. She was always quick to respond to communication which gave me peace of mind while I had to be away from my babies

Olesia was a wonderful sitter! She really took the time to understand Pixie and her special schedule and needs. She went above and beyond to ensure Pixie was getting the best care. She gave me many updates and picitures. I definitely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. I would love her to take care of my Pixie again in the future ❤️
