“Carlos is a very straightforward guy, it was very smooth to work with him. He stayed at our house and cared for our 78 pounds dog as well as a demanding cat. He left the house clean. Throughout his stay he was in contact with us with pics and updates about the pets. I'll definitely book him again in future.”


“I am so glad that I booked Dustin! He is a very genuine and nice person. He took great care of Monty and sent adorable photos of their adventures. Dustin stayed in our home and took great care of it. He even laundered the bedding for us. We appreciated that surprise when we got home from our trip! I highly recommend booking him for an in-home stay! We will definitely be seeking him out again for future sits!”


“Liz was a gem in taking care of Roscoe who is a 14yr old Cocker with cataracts & is hard of hearing. I left a long list of his health needs while I was gone. Liz was capable & responsible in doing all of them. She also left my house neat & orderly.”


“Melinda did a great job. She played with the dogs, walked them, and sent us cute pictures and videos. She left the house sparkling clean and even put on fresh sheets for us. When our flight home was unexpectedly delayed overnight, she was willing to stay with the dogs, which was a big relief.”



“Natalie did a great job watching our adult dog and our puppy for a week. She sent lots of pictures and updates, so we got to see them go on plenty of walks and outings. She was super understanding about our dog’s quirks and the demands of watching our puppy. Natalie was also super communicative and responsive, and we would happily leave our pups with her again!”


“Olivia was wonderful, she sent us updates on our sweet dog and left the house looking amazing, we look forward to having her watch our dog again soon!”


“Jnaessa took loving care of my three critters (a needy dog and two cats). She gave them love and attention including extra attention to my fussy eater old lady cat to get her to eat. She sent me pictures daily. The house was neat as a pin when I arrived home. I will definitely be booking Janessa again.”


“Angelica did a great job watching our 3 pets! My husband and I were camping and didn't have much service, so I was a little nervous about communication - however, Angelica was a pro and didn't complain about our spotty coverage!”


“Sharon stayed with my big Golden Retriever at my house and she’s the bed dog sitter. My dog is dog reactive and she took great care of him and also of our house. Sharon is trustworthy, amazing at communicating with me, sent me cute pictures of Charlie, took him for walks and she’s very responsible. I’d recommend her to anyone that needs an awesome sitter.”


“Holly has watched our pets multiple times— she’s always thoughtful and communicative, and we leave town knowing with certainty that our pets are in amazing hands. When Holly sends photos or videos of our cats, they’re always at ease and doing their favorite activities (playing with their toys, making biscuits, and just generally having a great time.) Thank you so much for another great visit, Holly!”


“Excellent as always, thank you Joel. Loki is always a relaxed, happy boy when we get home. We've already booked Joel for 3 more house/dog sits.”


“My husband and I trusted Chloe with our fur child while we made a trip home and we could not have asked for better care! She came for a visit to make sure she was a good fit with our doggo and to meet us, she sent so many photos (which we LOVED), and took the best care of Murphy!! Our doggo absolutely loved her and her company! Murphy is a big doggo with a lot of energy and she took on the challenge with ease. We appreciate her so much and look forward to utilizing her again in the future! Murph can’t wait for next time!!”


“I highly recommend Julie as a house sitter, especially for older dogs like ours. Julie administered medications twice a day and kept us up to date on our dog's well-being. She took good care of our house and left everything in order.”


“Sierra and Karinni were very communicative and professional. My dog is anxious and thus can be challenging to take care of, and they worked with me to make the overnight visit successful for him. Also left my house very tidy and the bed was made up nicely :) I would be happy to have them back.”


“Chynna was fantastic! We had him stay at our place with our pup and two kitties. He was super communicative, we cute photos and updates, and we felt so great about leaving our little animal pack in his hands. We will absolutely have Chy and stay again.”



“Thank you so much for taking great care of my pups. They were happy and tired when I got home. I appreciate the updates that were sent. And the house was left super clean. I will definitely be using Carrie again :)”


“If I could give 10 stars I would! Not only did Kelcya and Elizabeth take fantastic care of our baby and kept us updated - they left an amazing snippet of Sookie’s behavior while we were gone. Already booking with them again!”


“This was our first experience with Christina watching our 2 dogs. SHE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! We have not had the best experiences in the past with pet sitters. Christina went above and beyond. We have a special needs Frenchie that requires eyes on him 24/7. Christina would set her alarm for 4:00am to make sure our pup was able to go outside to go potty. Our dogs came first and we are so grateful. She paid attention to every little detail and she made sure our dogs had the most safe and fun environment. You should definitely connect with her when you are in need of quality pet sitting. We are blessed and feel like she's a new member of the family!”


“Did a great job!”


About: I am a licensed RVT and CPR certified. I have been in the field about 10 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, pocket pets and even some livestock. I am a full time employee for UC Davis. I get off work around 6 and have Thursday-Saturday off with flexible pet sitting availability on Sunday I would ensure I wear clean clothes over every time to limit any unwanted illness. With my job specifically I don't deal with sick animals so that won't be an issue. I am also used to placing animal in crates and potty walks.
