House Sitting Fontenay Villa

“Nora took such great care of our girl and our home! I appreciated the updates on all the fun adventures she and Kelp were having while we were away! She went above and beyond and kept our house sparkling clean (even doing some of our laundry and a little organization!). It's always hard to leave our dog but good care makes it so much easier. Thank you Nora! :)”

“Rachel has such a calming energy which was perfect for our pups who get a little anxious while we are away. Was great to have piece of mind knowing she was there while I was away for the full day. Appreciated the updates and picts as well. Thank you!!”

“Heather did an amazing job watching Murphy and Piper while I was out of town. She kept me informed, sent photos and took great care of my dog who had a small injury on his leg. I appreciated her attention to his leg and how hard to tried to make him feel better. Very responsible, kind, and loving.”

“Don't hesitate to book Mamu to care for your pet! I can’t recommend Mamu enough! They took care of my dog for three days and followed all my care instructions. From the start, they were calm, communicative, and incredibly patient. The level of attentiveness gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog and my home were well taken care of. I truly appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures, they made me feel connected and reassured. When I got home, I could immediately tell my dog had bonded with them. I had no hesitation putting in another request for a future sit the moment I returned. Thank you again for your amazing care and presence!”

“Great pet sitter! She stayed with my car Boba and spent the night. She was very professional and did a wonderful job sending me pictures. My cat looked so happy snuggled on her lap!”

Vanessa S.

“I highly recommend Kendra, as she was very communicative, kind, and reliable. Our cat, Jinx, fell in love with her from the first moment, and he was in good hands for the entire ten days we were away. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would love to have her pet sit for us again in the future. Thank you, Kendra, for an amazing job!”

“Bex was awesome! She took care of my sick bulldog while i was away and kept me informed everyday on his condition. She even took him to the vet for me so he didn’t miss an appointment to be checked. I will happily request Bex to watch my fur babies again. Thank you, Bex!”

Alicia B.

“Angelika was absolutely wonderful while caring for my dog, Brie, and my home for five days. She is incredibly loving, responsible, and professional, and it was clear from the start that Brie was in the best hands. Throughout her stay, Angelika took exceptional care of Brie, giving her plenty of love and attention. I returned home to a happy dog, one who even looked for Angelika ! She also took amazing care of my home. We live close to the beach, and she even vacuumed before I returned, leaving everything spotless and beautifully cared for. That level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Angelika to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. She truly treats both your pets and your home with the utmost respect and care. I'll feel so confident to have her again”

Catherine K.

“Tommy was so sweet with our 17yo pup, and I could tell he was connected to her also when we returned. Everything was in great shape, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her again!”

“Teresa is awesome! We were traveling in the Santa Cruz area and needed an extended sitter and she was fabulous. She is super timely to respond and a joy to work with. We are so grateful we found Teresa!”

Sara M.

“Tyler was friendly and communicative. He was interested in our dogs habits and wanted to know her full routine so he could keep her comfortable while we were traveling. Tyler sent updates with pictures during his stay. We came home to a tidy house and a happy dog.”

Rhea H.

“We found a gem in Lisa. Her rapport with our dog was immediate (and with us too!) It was comforting to leave town and know our dog was in excellent hands. We loved all the pics and updates she sent on how the dog sitting was going. Can't wait to have her back!”

About: Hello, friend!!! I have been housesitting and caring for other's pets, homes, and gardens since my teen years. As a writer I spend a lot of time working from home, meaning that I will largely be available throughout the day to give your pets all the attention they need and ease the discomfort of having their loved one (you!) away for a while. Staying attuned to an animal's needs comes naturally for me as it brings me fulfillment as well. Cats are my absolute favorite - I have had a cat as a companion in every stage of my life and cared for many more. I have cared for many dogs as well, but mostly quieter dogs with a "cat-like" demeanor. I have sensory sensitives so I am unable to care for younger and more energetic dogs that bark a lot. (Barking because excited for certain activities is expected and fine, though). Other pets I have owned and cared for include smaller pets such as goldfish, bearded dragons, hermit crabs, snakes, and tarantulas. I have great respect for what a home means and treat every space I am in with reverence, keeping it clean and cared for. I also have light experience gardening and am comfortable watering a mass of plants! I have housesat several locations that have an entire array of potted plants. I always make sure they are well tended to and kept as lively as ever! A little bit about me - I am a 35 year old writer and performance artist. (They/them pronouns). I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, and attended college in Santa Fe, New Mexico where I received my BA in Creative Writing and Literature. I remained in the beautiful high desert for close to a decade in earlier adulthood. The culture and gorgeous landscapes of both Northern California and New Mexico have deeply informed who I am. I've also worked in childcare and children's entertainment. Being a caretaker has always come naturally to me and often brings me a sense of fulfillment. Some of my favorite activities (other than writing and performing) are hiking, reading, dancing, reading tarot, and making art. Any of my close loved ones will tell you I am a calm, kind, humorous, intelligent, and thoughtful person who approaches all things in life from the heart and with great intention. I can't wait to meet you and give your beloved pets the attention and love they deserve while you go on your next great adventure! Since I mostly work from home writing, pet care easily fits into my daily schedule. Occasionally, I have live performances and community events but when I am needed all day elsewhere I typically know well in advance and can communicate with you effectively to make sure this housesit is still a good fit for both of us and especially your beloved pet! All pet care will take place in your home, so I will keep your pets' routine as stated, ensuring that nothing is disrupted for them aside from your departure. Plants and home will also be cared for as you would care for it. Cleanliness is part of my values, so you can expect your home to be as organized and neat as you left it. I do not do deep cleaning such as vacuuming unless previously negotiated.

About: I take my dogs for runs, and I travel with her some times! I love watching after dogs and being physical! Exercise is very important! Currently I live with family and they help take care of our animals as well and take my dog and cat for walks, we live in nature so they sun bathe and frolic . I can offer going to peoples houses and that means making sure they're well fed and entertained and just really taking care of them anyway they need. I've also had an animal that had surgery so I'm familiar with giving shots and pills as well!

About: • 🐶 Experience with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and rescues • ❤️ Reliable communication — I’ll always keep you updated with messages, photos, and peace of mind • 🏠 Respectful of your home and routine, keeping everything just the way you left it I have full availability at the moment and I have my own reliable source of transportation. I am very much open to communicating to work out scheduling With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m not just here to feed and walk your pet, I’m here to give them love, attention, and a safe, stress-free environment while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to make you feel 100% confident that your furry friend is in loving, capable hands.

“Seth did great caring of our pup while we were away for 4 nights. He asked detailed questions and left the house cleaned even after having to deal with the snow melting.”
