Pet care experience

We love all pets!

Hi, we’re John and Carrie! Husband and wife team providing professional pet sitting services in 29 Palms and the surrounding area. Our pet sitting services are done in your home, where your pets are most comfortable. Your pets’ safety and happiness are our top priorities. We've been a professional house and pet sitters for 6 years now. We both love animals and we often work as a team to give the best quality care possible. We've both cared for animals since we were kids. Carrie grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, pigs and cows. John grew up on an acreage with dogs, cats, reptiles, cows and chickens. As adults we raised five dogs from puppyhood. Two we cared for until their last days. We have three large dog friends right now, ages 13, 3 and 2. We're also experienced with birds and insects (ask us about our pet beetles!).

After a family emergency I scrambled to find a sitter last minute while I was in a different country. Carrie stepped in and took care of my three girls so effortlessly and intelligently I can't praise her enough. She was flexible, attuned to the needs of three very different dogs and I can tell from their photos they are absolutely comfortable. Would hire again without question.

My furr babies (rescues) loved Carrie right away. I was able to go on a last minute trip with my friends. I really appreciated the pictures and the overall communication. So glad we were able to meet and that we are close to each other!

Carrie was great. She helped us out at the last minute and took excellent care of our two kitties. Will definitely use Carrie again the next time we travel.

This was my first time leaving my fur child with someone I just met and first time using Rover. Carrie’s great care and attention to Posey, put me at great ease and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worry. I would use her services again and would highly recommend her.

We were very pleased with Carrie's care for our dog Dusky and our house during a brief, 2 1/2 day, vacation. We highly recommend her and will certainly call upon her again.
