Carol is the Best of the Best! She took epic care of my three cats while I was away taking care of my beloved. Her twice daily videos and pics, notes, eased my mind so much because I could tell my babies were not only in great hands, but loved also. 10/10!

About: I got my first pet when I was six years old. Since then, I have been taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish for over 15 years. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to feed their pets, take them on walks, bathe them and even trim their nails, if needed. I love all pets and enjoy taking care of them as if they were my own. I can fit your schedule anytime with a week’s notice. For walks, mornings are more favorable due to weather conditions. For emergency care, one day advance would be preferred. I have a fenced yard where your dogs can play outside on the grass or they can enjoy indoor play with cool A/C. They’ll have their own room or they can be crated if needed.

Kyla watched our dogs and kitty for two and a half days, and she did an excellent job! I’m so thankful that I met her. She was punctual, responsible, and very respectful of our home. She also spent lots of time with our pets. My dogs are extra shy, but in a short time they came to love her. She has a calm and sweet presence that just fit my dogs and cat perfectly. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, and I really appreciated that. I’d hire her again in a second. She’s great!

About: With over 11 years of hands-on cat care experience, I bring a depth of understanding that goes far beyond basic sitting. My background includes working with animal shelters, caring for energetic kittens, supporting senior cats with special routines, and raising my own three cats, each with their own unique needs and personalities. This range has taught me how to read feline behavior, adapt quickly, and provide calm, confident care in any situation. I’m especially attentive to routine, cleanliness, and emotional comfort. Whether a cat needs gentle patience, playful engagement, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to what helps them feel safest and most at ease. I treat every cat as an individual—not a checklist—and my goal is always for pet parents to feel complete peace of mind knowing their cat is in experienced, compassionate hands. I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your cats receive my full attention—not rushed visits squeezed around another job. My flexible schedule allows me to spend quality time with your pets, closely monitor their needs, and adjust care as needed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I strive to maintain a peaceful, secure environment in your home so your pets feel comfortable and stress-free. From following routines to keeping your space tidy and secure, safety and trust are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I have a dog of my own, Stella, and I’ve spent years helping care for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. For the past eight years, I’ve also helped care for my neighbors’ cats while they’re traveling, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. As a Cal Poly student home for the summer, I’d love to spend my extra time hanging out with your pets. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just getting lots of attention and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a Cal Poly student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight care throughout the week. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll always follow your instructions, respect your home, and make your pet’s safety and comfort my top priorities. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit or staying overnight, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own.

Aimee was a wonderful pet sitter! She came over to meet our cat well in advance of our trip and was terrific at communicating with us while we were gone. She sent beautiful pictures of our cranky cat Bailey playing with her and took in our mail, etc. Everything was great on our return and I think Bailey made a new friend. Highly recommend.

Absolutely the best! Katherine is one of these rare people that you find once in a blue moon that truly goes above and beyond and loves what she does. She took care of our cat and even checked in on the house to make sure everything was okay - if I could give 6 stars I would! She is hands down the best on this site - book her today and I promise you’ll be glad you did!
