“Natalie did an amazing job from start to finish! I had to leave town on fairly short notice, and she was still willing and able to accommodate my pets needs. I have two cats with very different needs, one is older and spicy and takes medicine daily, and I was so impressed by Natalie’s ability to care for her and administer the medication successfully. my older cat even warmed up to Natalie’s gentle nature and allowed some affection! She was also great with my younger cat, who required daily play sessions. Directions I left were followed to a T, and Natalie provided such nice report cards and many photos at the end of each visit! I have a hard time leaving my babies, but Natalie made me feel like they were in great hands. I would recommend her to anyone, and plan on hiring her again as my sitter whenever I can!”
“So glad we found Jazmine, she is super thorough, detail oriented, easy to work with, and most importantly love cats!! She made sure to clarify & note all the instructions we had for our picky senior cat that also needs medicine and went above and beyond during her visit to make sure he eats 🥹she was also super communicative during the visit. we highly recommend her and we will book again :)”
“Jenna was great for checking in on my pup while I was at work! She took lots of photos and a video of their time at the park. It’s easy to tell she genuinely enjoys taking care of pets and spending time with them. I’ll definitely continue having her take care of my pets!”
“Outstanding pet sitters! They went above and beyond to care for my cats—ensuring fresh food and water, clean litter, and a clean environment. They gave the beasts plenty of love, attention, and brushing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets.”
About: I have taken care of both cats and dogs since I was just born. I had one cat and one dog growing up both for 18 years and I currently have one cat that is 6 years old with a minor disability. My roommate has three cats. I have experience with behavior training, feedings, vet, appointment, walks, potty training, and recognizing emergencies that need immediate attention. I make my cats wellbeing a priority. They get a morning and an evening walk as well as the ability to go in and out as they please. They get wet food at the same time every day in the evening and dry food available to them always. They also get treats for behavior training and to better their tricks. I am available to complete any and all services needed to take care of your pet, whether that be in my place of residence or yours.
About: With years of experience in private and public pet boarding, I strive to uphold YOUR standard of love and care for your furry family member(s) while you’re away. While working part time at a daycare, coming home to care for my furry family members is a full time job. Although no two pets are the exact same in their care, I can assist in helping them stick to their regular routines while you’re away. Caring for pets in a clients home will be done in the same manner as they care for them while they are home. I intend to maintain regular boundaries and be consistent with rules that have already been implemented.
About: Hi there! I’m Jenna and I have been around animals all of my life. I have been house sitting/ animal sitting for 10 years now. I can take care of dogs of any breed, cats, horses, goats etc. I do work full time, but my partner works from home and they are able to provide care when i am at work. We can accommodate special requests I am in an apartment on the 1st floor. We have a dog park, and a lot of grassy areas nearby. I have a camera set up in my living room, that allows me to check on the animal throughout the day. We also have extra toys and treats for animals staying with us.
About: I am a licensed RVT and CPR certified. I have been in the field about 10 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, pocket pets and even some livestock. I am a full time employee for UC Davis. I get off work around 6 and have Thursday-Saturday off with flexible pet sitting availability on Sunday I would ensure I wear clean clothes over every time to limit any unwanted illness. With my job specifically I don't deal with sick animals so that won't be an issue. I am also used to placing animal in crates and potty walks.
“Davis was super attentive to my cat, Muc! I received daily reports and photos of how Muc was doing. Davis treated Muc like his own. I really appreciated the attention to detail. Davis is definitely my go-to.”
“Had a great experience. Came by the day before to meet the littles and get acquainted. Sent video and pictures each time and even went the extra mile to hand feed my grumpy old lady when she didn’t want to eat.”
“Sara is the best! We highly recommend her! She's taken great care of our very old Golden Retriever (and chickens), multiple times now, and it's such a relief to know they are in such good hands.”

“Elaine is a great sitter! My cat doesn't like being left and I've never left him for 8 days before... I came back to a lovey chill feline. I know that's down to Elaine's style and going the extra mile! She even played my cat's favorite tunes for him. And watered my patio plants! So grateful to Elaine fir keeping him happy and healthy, and to feel less guilty and worry free when I leave him. I'm already asking to book again for Sept!”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Jamiela’s pet sitting services to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver for their pets. Jamiela has a natural gift with animals—she is gentle, patient, and genuinely passionate about their well-being. She has looked after my pets on several occasions, and I’ve always been impressed by her attentiveness and dedication. She not only ensures that pets are fed, walked, and cared for, but she also spends quality time playing with them and making them feel loved. I always return home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a peace of mind knowing they were in excellent hands. Jamiela is also extremely reliable, communicative, and professional. She keeps me updated while I’m away and always goes above and beyond to make sure my pets are safe and comfortable.

Athena Mae J.
“I only worked with Athena for two weeks to house sit for my dog, Ellie. During this time, I had to make the decision to put Ellie down due to health and behavioral reasons. Athena made this process so much more manageable and comfortable for both myself, and Ellie. She provided tips for making Ellie more comfortable while she was alone, helped me find a way to help Ellie eat more consistently, and took her on daily walks and playtime. Athena even created imprints of my dogs paws and nose to remember her after she passed. I couldn't have asked for a more empathetic and loving dog sitter who Ellie immediately latched onto and looked forward to seeing everyday despite it being such a short time. Thank you again for everything, Athena!”
Jenna M.
“My husband and I met Jenna while she was taking care of our friends children and we love our dogs as if they were our kids! We have two older small dogs and always know they will be well taken care of while we are gone, rather it be a quick weekend or an extended trip. When we arrive home our dogs are in good spirits and our house is well taken care of! We highly recommend Jenna and are confident you will be happy with her care!”

Roxy P.
“Roxy is fantastic! She was quick to respond, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable about pet care. She shared heartwarming stories about her own pets, which really showed her genuine love for animals. Roxy brought so much excitement and joy —not just to my pet, but to me as well. She went above and beyond expectations with playtime, walks, and social interaction. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
Kristine H.
“Hello, Kristine is my Sister. She is a very responsible dog lover. Her backyard is BIG with lots of room for dogs to roam and play but be safe at the same time. Once our aunt found a dog wandering her neighborhood, she thought it was my Sister's little Jack, this pup looks exactly like Jack, so Aunt brought her to Kristine, thinking it was jack, but Jack didn't get out. Kristine took Ally in and now she is part of her little family. Whenever we go out of town Kristine takes care of our little Sassy, a poodle mix that is about 10-11 years old. Sassy loves it there, Kristine takes great care of her, letting her sleep in her bed and providing regular treats, which Sassy LOVES! Kris has also kept other friend's canine family members. Kristine is a great caring and responsible dog sitter.”
