“I’m afraid to say too many good things about Kevin because I am never going to be able to book him again! He is an absolute king when it comes to senior dogs. My dog is relatively easy, but as she is older, she can definitely have her moments. Kevin showed incredible patience, care, compassion, and love. I cannot recommend him enough. He is a great match for my “Fluff”. We will be booking again!”
“Tony was an absolute lifesaver! During our visit to Palm Springs for Pride weekend, we initially booked him for an in-home sitting with about an hour's notice for our 1-year-old Bedlington Terrier, Oliver. When our plans changed last minute, Tony didn’t miss a beat—he offered to pick up Oliver himself. We decided to have him come to our hotel instead, and with just 30 minutes’ notice, he arrived promptly and stayed with Oliver from 10 PM to 3:30 AM. Oliver had a fantastic time with him, and throughout the night, Tony sent us tons of pictures and updates, which really put our minds at ease. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We'll definitely hire him again when we're in town!”
“Ashurina did a stellar job caring for our pets during our 4-night getaway to Big Bear Lake. We met with her a couple of days before our trip, and it was immediately clear she was the perfect sitter — our pets went right up to her for love and attention! While we were away, we had total peace of mind knowing our pets were in the best hands. Ashurina kept us updated with adorable photos and sweet stories about what they were up to, which made being away from them so much easier. When we came home, our pets were happy and relaxed — and we were thrilled to know that we now have someone we trust completely. Ashurina will absolutely be our go-to pet sitter moving forward. Highly recommend!”
“We booked Christopher to watch our two dogs during our wedding, and he was absolutely amazing! From the start, he was calm, patient, and completely on top of everything. One of our pups can be a little nervous around men (especially with all the stress from traveling and being around so many new people), and we hadn’t realized just how overwhelmed he was. But Christopher handled it all with so much patience and care. He made sure both dogs were safe, comfortable, and well looked after so we could enjoy our day worry-free. We’re so grateful for his help and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and professional sitter. Thank you, Christopher!!”
About: I have hands-on experience providing reliable, loving care for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care routines, and maintaining a safe, calm environment. I prioritize each pet’s comfort, routine, and emotional well-being, treating every animal as if they were my own. I’m attentive to behavior cues, patient with all temperaments, and committed to keeping pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as a consistent responsibility that I plan around other commitments. On a daily basis, I incorporate feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins into structured time blocks to ensure pets stay on their normal schedule. Weekly, I schedule pet sitting jobs in advance, allowing time for longer stays, exercise, and maintaining routines like grooming or medication if needed. I prioritize reliability and make sure each pet receives focused attention without rushing or overlap in care. I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar, low-stress environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them consistent attention, affection, and supervision. I also keep their space clean, including litter boxes or outdoor areas, and ensure fresh water is always available. I respect the home by keeping it tidy and secure, and I provide updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.
“We were in PS for a long weekend and didn't want to leave our pups alone when we went out for the evening. Dennis was just terrific with the girls - they loved him and he's clearly a dog lover. We definitely plan to reach out again when we are next in PS.”
“My gosh what a wonderful young lady she took the most beautiful care of my animals and my home. Erika is a wonderful selection as a house sitter. I will absolutely hire her again.”
“Jay was just wonderful with our puppy. She took her for walks each time. We were on vacation and loved the care she provided. We look forward to our next visit to have her watch Lexy again.”
“Elaine was beyond fantastic. We have a 9-month-old Westie that we have not left with anyone since we got her at Thanksgiving. We were very nervous trying to find a suitable person to watch Cotton. Not only would we be leaving her for the first time, but our trip to Europe was for a month. Elaine went out of her way to assure us and ease Cotton into a smooth transition. Elaine sent us many cute pictures during our journey, and we could see by the pictures that Cotton had found a second home. Now, if we have to travel again, we know we have found a wonderful person to care for our Girl. We highly recommend Elaine.”
About: Hi, I’m Colton! I’ve been caring for dogs for over four years, and it’s truly a passion of mine. For the past three years, I work at a professional grooming salon, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it’s bath time, brushing, or just helping pets feel comfortable and safe, I’m confident in handling all kinds of personalities. Beyond grooming, I’ve spent years walking, feeding, and looking after dogs in both casual and structured settings. I understand how important it is to treat each pet like a member of the family—and that’s exactly what I do. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a calm presence, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help however I can! Available 7 days a week for pet sitting! Reliable, experienced, and ready to care for your doggo whenever you need. Flexible scheduling and loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have years of hands-on experience and always pay close attention to each pet’s needs. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex with multiple dog runs, providing a safe space for play and relaxation. You can trust that your dog will be cared for in a clean, calm, and loving environment—just like part of the family.
“Thank you Jon for taking great care of my dog and my home while I was away! From the first meet and greet to learning about my dog’s routine and schedule to sending daily photo updates, Jon showed that he’s treating my dog like his own with care.”
“This was the second time we asked Renee to watch our Aussie shepherd, Oliver, while we were on vacation outside the country. He loves her and Renee really takes care of Oliver as we would. Before we even book a vacation, we check Renee's schedule and make sure she is available. We were really confident during our vacation that Oliver was receiving spa treatment at home and loving every second of it. We have known Renee for the last couple of years and we consider her a good friend. We trust her with our home and Oliver. Renee takes lots of photos and videos, so we get plenty of updates and feedback on the hour to hour activities of Oliver. We highly recommend Renee. She is the best.”
“Georgia was fantastic with our Belle. She kept her exercised, played with her, and kept her happy. She even stated working with her to keep her more calm when Belle sees other dogs on her walks. I highly recommend Georgia.”
“Sarah took wonderful care of my dog Lotte while I traveled for four days. She was attentive, reliable, and caring, and I was able to enjoy my trip with absolutely no guilt about leaving Lotte in her care.”
“Eric gets rave reviews from my husband and I for his petsitting magic. He did a fantastic job caring for our 25 pound terrier all day yesterday. From the moment our dog met Eric at our meet and greet, she was sold on him. He clearly has a great love for dogs and definitely “gets them.” As for my husband and I, we were also impressed with his responsiveness, dependability, desire to understand and provide for our dog’s needs, and the obvious caring and concern her showed her. We will definitely be using Eric’s exceptional petsitting services in the future!”
“Desiree did an amazing job looking after our little guy. She met with us prior to watching him in our home and eased his nerves. We look forward to working with Desiree again.”
“Barbara was fantastic with Brutus and Brighton. She sent lots of photos, was communicative, flexible when our schedules shifted, and a pleasure to trust in the home. Thanks, Barbara! We will book again soon.”

Erica was amazing. We found her last minute when our faithful pet sitter was out of town, and she quickly stepped in to help. She came to our home, met little Missy, and took wonderful care of her. Erica kept us updated with photos and let us know how Missy was doing throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would highly recommend Erica to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
This was our first time having Tony stay with Precious (our beloved iggy) on an extended stay, and he was absolutely fantastic. Iggies are notoriously anxious and attached. He gained her trust, and they became fine friends. We also appreciated all the pictures and updates Tony provided along the way. Also, he took good care of the house perfectly. We highly recommend Tony.
Andranise dogsat Conan for 3 nights in our home and she treated him like an absolute prince! I loved getting pictures and videos of their time together. When Conan’s happy, I’m happy! He loved their time together. And I appreciated Andranise’s flexibility with my schedule when I ran into flight delays. I highly recommend and trust that my dog is in caring hands with Andranise!
Molly was a great help to us on short notice when another house sitter we had scheduled had to cancel due to a family emergency. Two of our dogs have medications and special feeding needs and Molly was very attentive to the instructions and made sure to repeat them back to me to make sure she understood what i was telling her. The girls were very relaxed and happy when we returned, the house looked just as we left it and I would recommend Molly to anyone else in need of a pet/house sitter.
I was so nervous because I typically fly my dogs to my mom‘s cause I don’t trust anybody with my babies! So so happy my mom found Nina on here. I don’t treat my dogs like dogs. I treat them like my actual children. lol so it took a lot for me to drop them off. Nina made me feel so comfortable. I love the constant updates with pictures and videos throughout the day. It was extremely comforting. She took amazing care of them. They were very content and so happy. Can’t thank her enough!!
Chris is just amazing! He is kind, mellow, thoughtful and truly loves dogs. Including letting our two dogs sleep beside him at night because that’s what they are used too! The daily photos and messages also help to alleviate any worries! Can’t say enough positive things other than we have just rebooked him.
Larry was an awesome companion for our Frenchie. He managed an introduction w the dog. And we went on a walk together prior to the home sitting w our baby. Larry kept us updated w pictures and was wonderful in making sure Balhoo felt secure, safe and loved. All in our familiar surroundings. I would recommend Larry as a fantastic pet sitter. 5 Star!!! Thanks again Larry.
Jasmin is the best sitter I’ve ever had!! So friendly and professional and loving towards my pup. I appreciated her knowledge of dog behavior that helped me to better understand my gal. Jasmin took lots of great pics and sent informative updates about her evenings with my pup. I would give her 10 stars if I could!!
Sky was amazing with my sweet boy. She made sure he got lots of love and attention and was very attentive with following my directions for him and house rules. She is very responsive and good about msging pics and updates. I would recommend her and intend to use her regularly!
