“Tiffany was amazing with my girls! She is sweet, prompt, a great communicator and very easy to work with. I’m glad my dogs got to enjoy her company when I was gone!”

“Jace is just the best. I always feel so secure when he’s with my girls. This was my longest time away from them—six days—and knowing Jace was with them totally eased my mind. He sent pictures and updates and took great care of my home too. Can’t recommend him more highly!”

“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She sent several photos for the kids and I and over communicated everything! Teddy absolutely loved his time with Jennifer and was well taken care of. 🐾”

“Christina was an absolute gem to have house sit for us. This was the first time we’ve had someone house sit and the ease we felt with her was amazing. Our pup was very nervous but Christina patiently waited and gave her her space until she opened up. She was communicative and very understanding!”

“Kaitlyn took such good care of the dogs and our house. Her communication was amazing, and I appreciated the detailed updates. I would definitely book her again!”

“Alexis did an amazing job house sitting for me while I was on vacation. She is great at communicating. I came home to happy and loved pups. I highly recommend her and will definitely rebook her again!”

About: I have been trusted since childhood to watch over my neighbors' pets and have experience with two pit bulls and countless cats. I don't mind giving medicine, as my senior cat took some for years. I work full-time during the week, but am free all weekend to give your furry friend some love. I am generally active, so walks in the morning and evening are not an issue and I can easily integrate them into my daily routine. I can easily crate pets, love to take daily walks, and play for about an hour or two with my own pets, so I do not mind addressing the needs of your pet based on their energy level.
“Thomas is Amazing! He is kind, considerate and very conscientious. He has been phenomenal with my 4 cats, which has been a HUGE relief for me because I have never left them for more than one day. Now I don't have to worry, which is Everthing!! Thomas sends me pictures and updates almost daily which gives me such peace of mind! I really appreciate him and feel like I've found my forever cat sitter in Thomas!”

“Tamia was the absolute best! She took such great care of my pup Benji and made the whole experience stress-free. She responded quickly, was super flexible with her availability, and kept me updated the entire time. She was so accommodating and even went above and beyond by helping with cleanup, which I really appreciated. On top of being reliable, she’s incredibly sweet and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I felt completely at ease knowing Benji was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”


“Victoria always takes great care of my babies, so glad we found her! We call her every time we leave town because we know and trust in her care and attention not just to our pets but to our property as well. Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs while growing up since I was 7. I learned how to feed, walk, bathe the pets I had. And learned more things about dogs when I had my dog Oreo in 2020. I'm working part-time at a clinic, as BT which is 3 to 6 hrs depending on days I'm scheduled. I'm doing this as a side gig. I'll guarantee to help and take care of your pets for you. Pet sitting at someone's house I'll be respectful and responsible, making sure your fur babies is in the best care on my watch.
“Alyssa has taken care of Miso twice now and she is fantastic! She took the time during our first meet and greet to really get to know Miso and ensure a positive experience for him, and was great about communication and meeting his needs while I was gone. Miso adores Alyssa and looks forward to his future hangouts with his new bestie!”

“Dalene does a great job. Takes care of our dog in our house, and brings my dog to her house to hang out with her dog and they always have a good time together. She does a wonderful job of taking Joy for walks in fun places, and sending us lots of pictures.”

“Cassidy was amazing! She gave our dog and cats all the love. She sent photos and videos so we knew they were having a great time. She was great with communicating. We will 💯 use her again for our pet sitting. 🌟”

“Eric took great care of our 3 year old and 16 year old Aussies so that we could enjoy a weekend in Yosemite while we are visiting the area. Great meet & greet ahead of time which left us feeling comfortable and trusting. We've rebooked Eric's care for a second time while we visit Sequoia. Recommend!”

“Jessica is very caring and responsible with our pets. She left the house clean and the pets happy. She is a great communicator and we felt comfortable having her in our house with our pets. She even watered my plants while we were away. Would definitely book Rover with her again!”
