“Patty is amazing! She took care of our boys over thanksgiving weekend, sent photos daily and responded quickly when I would message. This is our second time booking with her and we will continue booking for as long as she’ll have us.”

“Daniel was a great sitter for my house and dogs while I was away. When I got home, one of my dogs didn’t want him to leave so I think they had a wonderful time. Would recommend his services to anyone in need.”

“Vanessa was great. My dogs took to her immediately. She was responsive and sent pictures daily (because I’m a paranoid dog parent) and even came back by and checked on them when my flight home was delayed. She’s wonderful and I’ll be booking her again!”
“Arianna and my dog get along so well! I am always peaceful knowing my little girl is in such good loving hands 🥰 Arianna is very communicative, reliable and trustworthy! She’s been walking my dog and house sitting for me for over a year now and have been very pleased with her services!”

“I had an amazing experience with Kailyn K. during her house sitting service from May 5 to May 7, 2026. She was fantastic with my dog, providing loving care and attention. Kailyn kept me updated with regular messages and cute photos, which really eased my mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being, ensuring he was well-fed, exercised, and happy. I highly recommend Kailyn for anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”

About: I’m a former dog groomer with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Working in grooming taught me how to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs, and I bring that same care into every walk. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always make safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel calm, cared for, and loved on every walk. Pet care fits into my weekly routine during my dedicated availability times. I am available Friday evenings, Saturday afternoons, and all day Sundays, which allows me to consistently focus on providing reliable and attentive care during those periods. I enjoy spending that time walking and caring for dogs, making sure they get exercise, attention, and a positive experience on every visit. I work at an urgent care in Visalia on weekdays but aside from that I have plenty of time to care for pets! In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all care instructions exactly as provided and prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I take time to build trust with each dog so they feel calm and secure during walks or visits. I always use proper leash safety, pay attention to their behavior and needs, and make sure they get a good balance of exercise, bathroom breaks, and positive attention. With my background as a former dog groomer, I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments and can stay patient and gentle with pets who may be shy, energetic, or need extra reassurance. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own and keep their routine as stress-free and consistent as possible.
“We are thrilled with the amazing job Frankie did while taking care of our dog, Mochi. From the moment we met Frankie, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Throughout the entire time, she was incredibly caring and attentive to Mochi’s needs. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent us, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Mochi was in good hands. Mochi absolutely loved her, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate puppy sitter. Thank you, Frankie, for your outstanding service!”

About: I don’t just watch pets, I build trust with them. By learning their routines and personalities, I create a calm, familiar experience that keeps them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I plan my weekly schedule around the pets in my care to ensure I can meet their specific needs—whether that’s regular walks, medication timing, feeding routines, or extra attention. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and owners can rely on dependable care. At this time, I offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home. While I’m not able to host pets in my own space, I’ve found that staying in their home keeps them more relaxed and comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routine, meals, walks, playtime, and any special care so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re gone.

About: I have always had a dog or multiple while growing up. I was always the kid that would ask to pet peoples dogs (still do) I have dog sat before for my neighbor and anytime the dogs saw me they always ran right to me. Dogs specifically always come up to me or are attracted to me. I have never had a bad experience with a dog and even if I did I would probably still try to make it my friend! Most days I am completely free except Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:10-11:25 then I have a night class from 6:10-8:00 I have always been an animal person and love every animal I meet. Before we moved to our new house my dog slept in my bed with me and had a bed of his own that he would occasionally lay in. My dog was always with me on the couch or really anywhere I went. Anytime I am at a friends house or anyone’s house who has I dog I always treat their pet like it’s my own.
“Sam was a very friendly girl, loves dogs and was amazing with Bella and Franklin. We went away for 4 days and she sent lots of photos and updates. I would highly recommend her and would.not hesitate to use her again anytime we go away.”
