“I really appreciated Ky for checking in on my cats while I was gone. She is very responsive. My cats seemed very happy with the care and attention she provided.”


2. Trisha B.


“Trisha did a great job caring for our 3 kitties for a week. She left detailed notes on all the things she did, took our packages inside, and communicated clearly if there were any issues within our home. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


3. Deborah P.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life, but I especially love dogs and cats. I help care for my two grand pups, a golden retriever, and a German shepherd mix. You can often find me walking around Gilroy with one or the other. I also have 4 cats, all rescued from the wild! I volunteer with feeding multiple feral cat colonies in town also. You’d think I have no time to care for other pets, but I’m RETIRED! 😬 I love it! And I’d love to help you with your pets while you work or just need a break! I’d love to love them! 🥰 I’m retired so I’m very flexible. The only times I am not available are Wednesday mornings until about 11, and Sundays until after 1:00 pm. I offer to come to your home to provide whatever care is needed, from walks and yard play, to feedings and kitty snuggles. Just let me know what is needed!

“Very good communication, loved the room for my kitty! There was lots of room to explore, a big window with a new screen, and even a TV running nature shows. She interacted with my cat every day and I loved her pics. 10/10, will contact again for my next trip. :D”


5. Alyssa C.


“Did an awesome job taking care of my little 8 week old kitten Jade. Shared updates and pictures daily. Felt at ease knowing she was being taken care of. Thanks so much!”


6. Kaylee C.
“I’ve had the chance to work with Blair, and I can say without a doubt she’d be great as a pet walker or sitter. With her background as a dog trainer and kennel attendant, she knows how to handle all kinds of dogs and understands their behavior really well. Whether it's taking them on a walk or just hanging out at home, she’s reliable and always makes sure pets are well taken care of. I trust her completely with my own pets, and I know she’ll do a great job looking after yours too!”

8. Maureen G.

“Maureen did a wonderful job of connecting with Speedy and taking care of him. Although he tends to be shy, he was affectionate and comfortable with her from the start. We loved hearing frequently from Maureen and seeing the daily pictures that she sent, which reassured us that Speedy was a happy kitty with her. She also took great care of our plants and home. Her warm and positive personality make her a joy to deal with. We will certainly want her to take care of Speedy during our future trips. Thank you, Maureen!!!”

She was easy to communicate with, checked in each visit, and sent photos to make me feel comfortable that everyone was fine and happy. I would definitely use her again in the future!”


10. Lucienne A.

“Lucy was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our two cats, one indoor-only who received plenty of love and attention, and one outdoor-only feral who appreciated the daily food and water. The daily reports were great, detailed and included multiple pics. It made being away from home much less stressful knowing our fur babies were happy and safe. I'm 100% sure I'll be using Lucy again in the future!”

13. Emma D.
About: I've had pets my entire life and I currently have 3 bulldogs and a cat! I've cared for and managed 2 bully litters myself within the past few years, so I have plenty of experience with brachycephalic dogs specific needs. while I have the most experience with brachycephalic dogs I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I currently work from home and have fairly flexible hours! Therefore I have extra time in the mornings and early afternoons to spend with your dogs/cats! My availability is 6am-8am and 12-3 pm M-T and most weekends 6am-3pm. If you have an active or athletic dog, I am very active and can easily accommodate their needs. If they're less active/low energy and would rather snuggle on the couch I'm all for that as well! Regardless, I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed!
