“Dustin is my dog’s best comfort when she realizes I am going away. She is crazy active and Dustin is so great with her. She most likely forgets I am gone as soon as she sees him coming up through the window. Amazing fast communication and always is flexible to make things work for everyone’s needs.”

“Kilani did a fantastic job! I really appreciate her cleanliness and she took the best pics of our kitties. 10/10 highly recommend her for all pet sitting needs :)”

“Aspen was great for our weekend trip! She gave us daily updates and was willing to meet with us before our trip. Our dogs seemed happy and well cared for when we came back. We would book again!”

“Mel was really great with our dogs! Sent lots of updates and photos, kept the house in great condition, and we felt really relaxed knowing our dogs were safe and taken care of.”

“Ava stayed in our house to care for our elderly diabetic cat while my husband and I were out of town. She administered 2 injections and 2 pills per day, in addition to his regular care and feeding. She also played with him, brushed him, and gave us daily updates on how he was doing. It was wonderful to know our little guy was in good hands! We got home yesterday to a relaxed, well-cared for cat! I recommend Ava without hesitation, and I will definitely hire her again in the future when the need arises.”


“Wonderful experience! Elizabeth was very sweet with our dogs! They seemed to love her! She was very communicative and followed our requests and asked great questions! And I love all the pics and the video we received! She also left a lovely card in our screen for when we got home! Thank you Elizabeth! We will definitely be booking again!”

About: I love animals of all types! My first pet sitting experience was at the age of 10 with a very sweet German Shephard, Storm. Over the years I've connected with many a canine, feline, and on occasion, equine family members. It's an honor to be trusted by you, and more importantly your four legged companion to care for them while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and levels of energy. You'll see many pictures of me and my late pup Jude. I had the pleasure of being his parent all 15years he roamed this earth. From potty training, behavior training, grooming and senior care. I've done it all. I work part time in Davis and am home around supper time. On workdays I am able to walk/spend time with your furry companion in the mornings and evenings. I'm available on my days off & the weekends for extended visits or walks. In the evening I'm able to do the same. I live in a small apartment that does not allow cats or dogs. If I am boarding your animals overnight, it will need to be in your home. Whatever accommodations your home has for your pet, I'll happily utilize them to ensure their comfort.
“This is my second time booking RJ to watch my dog at my place and he was amazing once again. He sends daily pics and updated me on how my little girl was doing which provides a lot of peace of mind, especially having a senior dog. Whenever he had a question he would reach out which I appreciated.”

“Danni was great! She communicated well with her plans and timing, gave nice updates on our dog and cat and she went above and beyond to make sure our trash and home cleanliness was taken care of.”

“Great experience with Rene! He watched Karma in my home while I was away in Reno, followed all directions, communicated great, and took excellent care of him — all at a very reasonable price. Reliable, attentive, and trustworthy — highly recommend!”

“Adia was amazing!!! She provided us with daily updates and pictures while we were away and took fantastic care of Leo. She followed all of our care instructions and left our house just as clean as when we left. I could not be happier with how this house sit went. We will definitely be re-booking in the future.”

About: Use my promo code CORINP14452 for $20 off your first booking! Hi there! I’ve loved animals my whole life. I’ve had many cats, an Australian Shepard, a Maltese, hamsters, and even a snake. I have volunteered at a dog rescue, and I have experience walking and sitting all sorts of dogs— small, large, young and excited, old and a bit slower, trained, untrained. I've raised dogs and cats and have done the whole shabang- training, potty-training, cleaning up messes, etc. I understand things happen and am patient with them. I'm happy to play with your pets, take dogs on walks, and give them extra love while you are away! I am a clear, honest communicator. I want you to be aware if anything happens you need to know about to ensure the safety of your pet. I have been on your end of Rover, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone you don’t know very well. So I will send consistent updates and pictures, and be available for any questions from you. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I will treat them as my own 🩵 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a few meetings spread through the day, but most of the time, I can make drop ins/walks work with whatever schedule is needed. And if I am dog sitting, I will be home all day since I work from home. At my home, I have a fenced in yard. I will supervise any outside time. I will make sure the leash and collar are secured before going on a walk. I don’t put my face in their face, and allow them to take the lead on contact and interaction. I know I’m a stranger to them at the beginning, and know trust needs to be built!
“Jaclyn has been one of the best cat/house sitters we've ever had. She always makes sure our cats are fed and taken care of as needed. She always clearly communicates if any issues arise and sends over detailed status updates and cute pictures every day. We were able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation knowing our cats and home were in good hands.”

“We love Farrah! She has done some short sits as well as this extended sit for our anxious dog, Gunner. She’s conscientious and cares deeply about Gunner’s wellbeing. She’s professional and has excellent communication. We returned to a calm and happy Gunner as well as a very clean home. We can’t recommend Farrah enough.”

“Jazmin stayed at our home with our two pups and was great! Sent pictures and updates on the dogs. She left the house clean and even washed the sheets! Will definitely be using her again.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and feel very comfortable around them and very in-tune to their needs. I also worked for Midtown Mutts for a year prior to Covid and going back to school (many of the dogs I walked then are shown in my gallery). Not only do I view pets as family members and a whole lot of fun, I also view them as lifelong friends and would take special care that they are always safe, comfortable, happy, and loved! I am familiar with many different breeds and know what different needs this entitles for each. I am available for specific needs as requested by the owner, such as extra walks or special diets and will respect these. I love to take dogs on runs, to the dog park, or on long hikes if the owner permits. I hope you will consider me for your next dogsitting need! I am currently working from home and self-employed, so I am very flexible with my hours, available nights or weekends if needed, and can work around tricky schedules. I have a daily routine with my own dog and cat, so am very aware of pet routines and their importance. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and energy level, whether that means active play and walks or a quieter, more relaxed approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency—feeding on schedule, refreshing water, administering care as instructed, cleaning litter boxes or pet areas, and providing companionship and enrichment. I respect the home and any specific instructions provided, and I make sure pets get attention, reassurance, and positive interaction while their owners are away. I am attentive to pet behavior and wellbeing, communicate clearly with owners, and will provide updates as requested so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My goal is for pets to feel secure and cared for, and for owners to feel peace of mind.
“Briana took great care of our pets while we were away for the night. This was the second time they have house-sat for us and we would definitely request them again.”

I can’t even express how amazing RJ was watching my pup. He house sat my house for 5 days. He was always giving me really great updates throughout that day. I got great pictures, and he was always telling me how she was doing. When I got back home, my place was spotless. I couldn’t recommend RJ enough.

Jessica is a gem - super responsible, reliable, communicative, conscientious and kind. She is attuned and observant, tailoring her care of a pup to their personality and needs. I feel so at ease leaving my German shepherd with her and always appreciaye the photo updates. My pup and I are happy we found her!

We had a wonderful experience with Jazmin. She arrived and departed on schedule, kept us updated every day, and sent plenty of photos and videos of our pups. Communication was excellent and she left our home just as she found it. We arrived home to happy pups and couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend Jazmin.

We had a wonderful experience with Jocelyn! She was caring, reliable, and attentive, and it was clear that our dog was in great hands. She kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciate the love and attention she gave our furry family member. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

I have two dogs and a cat. I've always classified my cat as a feral cat. She's always been fearful of people. She took a liking to Kate immediately and you don't know how relieving that was for me because I was going to be gone for a week. My two dogs who usually are vocal when anybody comes to the door did not even make a sound. Welcomed her in with open arms.

Always happy to rebook with Aspen, she takes care of our pets and home so well! We are grateful for the extra care she took to make sure our house was tidy and comfortable to come home to after a week away. Our pets trust her and she's great with their individual personalities.

Joel was great at communicating before and during the stay to make sure everything was good to go. He sent pictures of our pup every day and gave us a daily update. Our pup had some health issues come up a couple days before Joel’s stay with him, and Joel was extremely understanding and wrote down the stuff he needed to do to take care of our dog’s issue. We came home to a happy, healthy pup!

Jenna did an amazing job with my 2 cats! They’re both very shy and I was so pleased she took the time to make sure they were happy and healthy and got them to push through their shyness during her time there. I felt really at ease with her because she is experienced with cats. My shy kitties warmed up to her and were healthy and happy when I returned from my 10 day trip! I’m definitely planning on booking her again!

Aicha was fantastic! She cared for our pup and two cats and house while we were away for 5 nights. She sent photos and messages and responded quickly if we messaged about anything. Our dog and cats were happy and healthy and our house was so clean and smelled good when we got Home! 10/10 would recommend!

Jaclyn housesat for us for several nights in October and she did a great job caring for our cat and dog. She left our house tidy and both pets were very healthy and happy upon our return! She also provided thoughtful updates throughout her stay. Thank you, Jaclyn!
