Top rated Onate house sitters

“We really appreciate Susana taking care of our home and furry friends. They are happy to see her. She sends us great pictures and is really tidy.”


“Brigit was prompt, responsive and left the house and our dogs in excellent condition. Would definitely refer her (already have) and use her again.”


“Took great care of our dog and our friends dog, and kept the house so clean while house sitting. Responsive, flexible, and the dogs were very happy with her.”


“Max was very helpful and flexible. He took great care of my cat and home. He was careful to clarify details about the needs and let me know how my cat was doing.”


“Kimberly is a model house sitter for my Luna, she took photos and played with her and when I got back, I could tell that Luna had used up her pent up energy. Not to mention that she bought treats when I ran out.”


“Haley took great care of our pack of four dogs, including a complicated schedule of pills for our oldest. Also watered plants and held down the fort while we were gone. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!!”


“Kay is very committed to her job. She went the extra mile to care for and play with my cat. When I got home, I had a very happy boy waiting for me. That hasn’t always happened with other sitters. Kay was also concerned with the care of my home and did a very good job of plant watering, linen washing etc so I had very little chores waiting for me when I got home. Kay was very responsive to my short notice for a house sitter. I look forward to using her again.”



“We always book with Cristina when she's available to watch our dog, and she never disappoints us. She patiently waited for my anxious, fear-aggressive dog to open up to her. I'm very grateful for her compassion, reliability, and effective communication skills. I highly recommend booking her.”


“Avonelle was great! Our boxers, Cheeky and Champ were very happy with her and gave her tons of kisses. She stayed at our house and was very punctual and responsible. She also took our dogs for walks and sent us photos which was awesome. Avonelle is super nice and kept in touch with us. We definitely trust her and will book her again!”


“Candace is wonderful. If you have the chance to book her service, do it! Our sweet dog was super content with Candace. We have a super emotional dog and I can tell she was treated well during our vacation. Candace also cared for our home wonderfully. It’s hard to imagine ever taking our dog to a kennel after such excellent service.”


“Pauline was amazing!! Our pup and bunny were so well over and cared for while we were away. We would highly recommend Pauline and we cannot wait to have her pet sit for us again!”


“I’ll use Amani as long as she wants to be in the biz! My Cat loves her and she takes great care of our house. I cannot say enough! Till next time! 😘😘”



“Patricia is fantastic! Her pictures and communication gave us huge peace of mind during our weeklong trip. She is a true animal lover. Highly recommend.”


About: I grew up with dogs in the house all the time so I am used to all different breeds and sizes. My grandma is a foster dog mom so we have new animals all the time in the house:) i currently have a day job monday-friday but I do get breaks often for me to be able to check on the animals. I have open availability on the weekends! I will be with them 24/7 making sure they are well cared for. I will also update you with pictures and info. etc. I do ask that you give me a description of everything so I can make the animal feel most at home so they don’t get stressed!

“A couple of words describe Joel and his care of my girl, above and beyond. He did fantastic job of playing and spending with her and even stayed late to help her through a thunderstorm. I have had not better sitter fro my best friend.”


“Karla did an amazing job with Boomer and Nova. She made sure to keep me updated and send me pictures through the day. She took care of the house as well and left it nice and organize. Boomer and Nova were so happy to have her as a sitter and look forward to seeing her again next month.”


“Val sit my fur babies twice now and she is phenomenal! My animals were happy when I got home and she did everything I asked. She even went back to stay with my golden retriever Karma when my flight was canceled and I was stuck out of town an additional night. I will definitely be having Val stay with my fur babies again the next time I’m away.”


“Jeff took very good care of my pets. It was not easy task, as I have 3 dogs, 2 cats and even chickens. I will definitely hire him in the future,”


“Our dog and cat loved Meredith, and we did too. She was everything we were looking for in a pet and housesitter. Meredith had great communication skills, responding instantly to our texts and providing exactly the info requested. Plus, she provided daily videos of our pets that showed how safe and relaxed they felt with her. She even tracked our flight home online to make sure we'd landed safely and assured us she would stay late if we were delayed. She left the house spotless. Knowing Meredith is a Registered Vet Tech only added to the peace of mind we felt leaving our fur babies in her care. We will absolutely book with her again.”


About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.

Joshua N.
“To whom it may concern, I’m writing in testimony of Josh working for your company. I’ve known Josh personally for just about 3 years now and in my experience he has been and extremely kind and caring person. Especially towards animals! We’ve asked him many times to check in on our animals while away and I am VERY picky about who I ask to enter my home and handle my animals. Seeing how careful and caring he is with his own animals he understands how special these creatures are to us. In summary I believe he would be a wonder addition to your team!”
