1. Debora & Michael S.

“We used Debora for my sister wedding weekend and we could not have picked a better dog sitter. We were very comfortable and happy with Deboras reliability, communication, and friendliness. But mostly how much she cared about the well-being of our furry babies. Thank you so much Debora!”


2. Emma L.

“Highly recommend Emma! Great communication, sent photos often and even found a dog park to take them to. She was able to house sit for us last minute and gave our pups a lot of love.”


3. Carla E.

“Carla did an amazing job watching my little 3 year old dog and his 13 year old cat sister. They were all fed, walked and happy when I got home. I will definitely contact Carla again.”


4. Alexandra T.

“Alex did a super job. She asked good questions to understand my pup better, and was very attentive to her throughout the day. I look forward to using Alex’s services again real soon.”


5. Logan F.

“Logan was awesome! I needed a last minute sitter and he was super flexible. He made sure he was early to be able to learn my dogs routine and followed all my care instructions.”


6. Carmen C.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, volunteered at the San Diego Humane Society, and have pursued a career with animals. I can diligently follow feeding, walking, playing, and potty break schedules. Most importantly, I love every pet as if they were my own and understand the level of trust it takes to put your pet’s wellbeing in someone else’s hands :) I just returned from traveling for 6 months so my schedule is completely open other than some doctors appointments. I am looking for a stable job but will be sure to update my schedule once I find one. Written directions/outline of my duties work best for me and any suggestions for places to walk or avoid walking. I’m comfortable giving medications but just need a visual demonstration of how it’s done. I communicate very effectively and never hesitate to ask questions. Aside from performing the outlined duties, I enjoy playing or just hanging out with the dog(s)/cat(s).

“Great guys, was extremely attentive with both my larger dogs and had absolutely no issues taking care of them while he house sat. Would definitely hire again! Thankss”


10. Kimberly S.

“Kimberly watched Simone for a week at our house. Simone is a special needs dog who requires expressing and Kimberly met with us to learn the process and she was very patient with Simone. My wife and I were very pleased with Kimberly, she was responsive, provided pictures, and spent a lot of time with Simone. When we got back, Simone was very happy and also fairly relaxed which is a big deal for her. Also, the house looked better when we got home than when we left. Overall very pleased with Kimberly and will use her in the future.”


11. Zaiel B.
“Zaiel is a compassionate and responsible pet caregiver who truly loves animals. Their patience, attentiveness, and dedication ensure that every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Zaiel for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”


12. Sarah M.
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life - big dogs at my mom's house, and small dogs at my dad's house. My husband works from home so has plenty of time to play with and care for your fur child. I work part time so my schedule is fairly flexible, I'm home most mornings and weekends. We have a 2 year old toddler, and a 3 year old husky/german shepherd mix named Aston. Aston is super friendly and playful and gets along well with other dogs. We also have a large fenced in backyard perfect for getting zoomies out and playing fetch 🐶 Your doggos are welcome to make themselves at home during their stay with us. Just let me know about any special feeding schedules, medications, behaviors to look out for, considerations, etc. My husband works from home, and I work part time so we'll have plenty time to spend with your pup! At least one of us will be home at all times. We have a fenced in backyard, and a husky mix who loves to play with other dogs. We also have a toddler who loves dogs. Your pup will never be bored.




13. Mellania S.

“We couldn’t be happier with Mellania! She took such great care of Lentil and Brody while we were away. It’s always nerve wracking leaving your pet with someone new, but Mellania quickly put our minds at ease with her professionalism, warmth, and constant communication. She sent regular updates with photos, which showed just how happy and comfortable Lentil and Brody were. When we got back, both dogs were so calm, happy, and clearly VERY well cared for. It’s obvious that Mellania genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again in the future!”


14. Sylvia R.

15. Lexis F.

“Lexis was great with our puppy! Came on time, asked appropriate questions, and was fantastic with our little guy! Will definitely rehire! Thanks!”


16. Kathy Z.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 10 years old. I’ve had a total of 3 cats since growing up in Los Angeles. I’ve helped many of my friends with pet sitting their cats overnight in my home or at theirs. I had my first dog (160 pound St Bernard) about 2 years ago. I adopted him since he was 6 months old until he turned almost 2. Now I have a 5 month old German shepherd and no cats. I am currently working part time and am available during the week and weekend when I’m off. I’m also available early morning or late at night if needed. I have a small fenced yard with plenty of room to play. I have many dog toys but can use yours if you prefer. I make sure I keep dogs inside when it is raining or if it gets too hot. Especially avoiding any mosquito bites so please let me know if your dog is on a flea and tick prevention.


17. Darlene S.

“Darlene is awesome. She was punctual and communication was great! Our Dixie is probably pampered and didn’t miss a beat when it was Darlene watching her! We will be rebooking. Thanks Darlene!”


18. Emily S.

“Emily is very kind and my dogs adore her from the moment they met her. She followed all the notes I left and took great care of my dogs. I felt relieved knowing my babies were with someone who was good to them.”


19. Ashlee N.

“10/10 recommend Ashlee! She is very communicative and dependable. She went above and beyond to take great care of my pups for the weekend. Definitely will be booking with her again!”


20. Melody N.
“I'm so thankful for Melody's exceptional care of my dog on multiple occasions. Her genuine love for animals and conscientious attention to detail always put my mind at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend Melody as a dependable and caring pet sitter!”
