“Kelley was great to work with and connected with Snow right away. She also took great care of the house. I highly recommend Kelley and will definitely ask her to be a dog-auntie for Snow again!”
“Laura is a friendly, dependable, dog loving sitter. She stayed at our house while we were away and cared for our three dogs who all eat differently and take medication. We could tell when she met them that she would love them like we do. And when we returned they were happy and not traumatized. We highly recommend Laura.”
“Myra is so considerate of our dog and does an amazing job of caring for him while we’re away. She is very flexible and accomodates his needs perfectly! She is also a fantastic communicator and sends us updates with pictures while we’re away. We can’t imagine a better dogsitter!”
“Maya was very professional and super understanding of my overly spoiled dogs, I left the house in not the best condition and she definitely left my house in better condition than she found it! She was super attentive and let me know when my dogs were getting into stuff. I would definitely rebook”
“This was our first time using this service, and Claudia did an excellent job taking care of both of our pets. She was responsive and arrived on time as arranged. Claudia kept us updated throughout the day and even sent us cute videos. I really felt comfortable having her with our babies. I will definitely be calling Claudia again!”
“We are extremely satisfied with Lori’s services. After being away for 9 to 10 days, we returned to find our dogs in excellent health and spirits, clearly well cared for during our absence. The regular updates, including pictures and videos, significantly alleviated our concerns. We are certainly planning to use her again and have already arranged for her to housesit during our upcoming vacation.”
“Bianca is super sweet. And she sent me great videos of my dogs every day. And you could tell from the videos that the dogs really liked her! My house was just like I left it. And my dogs had a great time with Bianca. Totally recommend.”
About: I have never met a pup or kitty I couldn't befriend! Pets have been an important part of my life for the lion's share of it. I have experience sitting for a large range of dog breeds and I have have taken care of cats most of my life. My schedule is very flexible. As long as I have prior notice, I can fit pet care into any part of my week. I am hoping to develope this into something full time. I have a home with a large yard in the country. Plenty of room for pups to run around. Inside is a nice cool wood floor for pups to rest on after playtime.
“Ashley was great with our 2 pits and 2 cats! She was punctual and very clean. Our pets got friendly with her quickly and gave us peace of mind when leaving town. Would highly recommend and will definitely utilize her services again in the future!”
About: I have years of experience raising puppies and fostering rescues. I have taken courses in animal science. I have over 4 years experience in house sitting animals. I am available any day. I would prefer to sit in your home as my home has 2 large dogs who are scared of the world. My goal is to make all of your travel needs easy and keep your pets calm by providing in home care. I would prefer to not bring animals into my own home as my dogs are afraid of everything. I can provide references for in home sitting if desired
“"I'm not sure I ever want to use another house sitter ever again" - my girlfriend a few moments before we went to bed on the freshly washed sheets in our spotless apartment Couldn't agree more. Raymell and Serenity were simply amazing. This was our first time using any app to have a pup watched, and for house sitting in general, and I am so glad we found Ray and Serenity. They were in constant communication with us our entire 5 day trip. We received updates for Ushi (our 12 week boston puppy), great pictures, and came back to our apartment cleaner than we left it (and I thought it was pretty damn clean!). All instructions we left for them were followed, and they promptly asked questions the moment they were unsure about anything. If I could leave more stars I would. We got stuck in San Diego a little longer than expected due to the tropical storm and Ray and Serenity were EXTREMELY accommodating and empathetic to our situation. THANK YOU BOTH!”
About: I love hiking and having a good old fashioned tug-o-war with dogs 😁. I also have an emotional connection with animals 😊. I know when they are upset or happy. I treat animals with upmost respect, because I believe we are both coexisting beings on this planet. I also have experience training dogs to be well behaved. Other times I just let them have some space for their wild side 😉. Also I have a lot of fun grooming dogs. I also have a favorite quote for loving dogs— “He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion. Our dogs will love and admire the meanest of us, and feed our colossal vanity with their uncritical homage”—Agnes Repplier
“Couldn't ask for a better sitter! Mackenzie treated Groot like a prince. Even though he's 125 lbs it was no problem for her. She was very attentive and extra kind. Im going to look forward to the next time she can dog sit for us!”
“I’d highly recommend Christina for anyone in need of pet care. We’d not had anyone besides family stay with our pets when we were away so we were nervous about hiring someone we didn’t know. Upon meeting Christina, we immediately felt comfortable that she was the right person. It was apparent she’s highly responsible, trustworthy, shows great patience, and loves animals. She stayed with our senior dogs who are high need and on various medications. Christina gave our dogs great care, provided us daily updates, sent pictures, and it allowed us to have a worry free relaxed vacation. Anyone hiring her can be totally confident that she will provide loving care of your pets and will provide everything you hope for in a house sitter.”
About: Being the youngest of 5 brothers and sisters, I grew up baby sitting and dog sitting for all my siblings. Which type? All types really - Pugs, Pit Bulls, Chihuahuas, Boxers, Wiener Dogs, plus a few more. Since he’s an only dog here, I enjoy Dr. Gonzo making new play mates, without the need to drive to the dog park. Plus, it can be a bit congested and it's open to too much randomness in my experience, I really do feel this is the best of both worlds. I also work from home and my work desk is facing the back patio yard, I'm 10 feet away from letting Dr. Gonzo out to play, run, potty.. etc etc. When my niece gets home from school, she too enjoys the company of new friendly pups. INFO I need about your dog before sitting for them: Preexisting Health Conditions, Fears/Phobias/Triggers, Medications Taken, TEMPERAMENT : Do they get along with other dogs? Feeding/Bathroom Schedule Exercise Needs REQUIREMENTS before Boarding with me: Flea/Tick Preventative Vaccinations : RABIES IS A MUST Items to Bring : Food, Bowls , Crate , Bedding/Blankets , Leash, Favorite Toys, & Medications if any.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for around three years. Sometimes even for multiple days caring for animals such as bunnies(even having one myself) 2 dogs,3 chickens, a guinea pig and 3 cats all at once. I’ve cared for multiple puppies and kittens as well as bathing them and caring for ailments. I am working a 2 part times right now but mainly during nights and late evenings so mornings or nights work amazing! But I am off a good amount of days for spontaneous need for a sitter. I care for 2 in my home right now and occasionally sitting some dogs. As of now i will not be sitting in house for safety purposes.
