House Sitting in Portola Valley

“CJ did an excellent job with our two Chihuahua mixes. CJ showed a genuine love for animals and formed a great bond with our dogs (one of whom is fairly mistrustful). I received regular updates, photos, and check-ins, which made me feel my doggos were getting the best care possible. I would highly recommend CJ!”

“Michelle was fantastic! We needed someone last minute to housesit our hyper husky. Michelle got back to us promptly and was responsible, trustworthy and professional. I’m so glad I met her, and I definitely plan on using her again in the future.”

“Jie H was fantastic with our two Labradoodles. She is mature, responsible and really understood my dogs needs. Jie did everything asked of her for the dogs. My dogs loved her. When we arrived home, our dogs ran to greet us, but then went right back to Jie to play and be petted. I highly recommended her. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Celina is a gem, I really enjoyed meeting her and Maya, my pup, liked her right away as well. Celina was super responsive, took care of Maya's vet visit and shared updates daily.”

“Kimberly was incredibly responsible and communicative. Emmy (my siamese mutt) is an excellent judge of character and when I arrived home she was in excellent spirits, having obviously received a tremendous amount of attention and love. I will absolutely be working with Kimberly again, and I would encourage you to do the same -- she's terrific!”

“Hannah was fabulous! My usually very shy cat children took a liking to her right away, which is the first for them! She provided constant updates and pictures while I was away, which I appreciated. Would absolutely have her take care of my kitties again :)”

“Ian is exceptional! They took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home—everything was in great shape when we returned. Ian provided regular updates, allowing us to relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our pets and home were in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Ian!”

“Austin was great, very professional and also warm. Our home and our dog were in tip top condition when we got back. We will absolutely use Austin again.”

Cherie G.

“He immediately got along with all of our dogs, and they sat next to him, he was playing with dogs and didn't mind the size of our dogs either. Very well-mannered, thoughtful, and great dog sitter - We will definitely ask him again!”

Takahiro K.

“Elissa was amazing! Stella was happy and well cared for when I got home! Elissa carefully followed all of my instructions for Stella and the house! She communicated with me and sent pictures daily. I do not trust many people to take care of Stella, but with Elissa caring for her my mind was at ease! I will absolutely have Elissa care for Stella again!”

Julie G.

“As usual, Zoe did a fantastic job with our dog! She is our go-to dog sitter, and I don’t know what we would do without her. Kirby can’t wait to see her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child, with more professional sitting services beginning in 2015. I have been able to alleviate the stress of traveling and leaving behind cherished fur babies, which is such a great feeling. Why stress them out if you can have reliable and loving care in home. I work a job that is semi flexible, allowing for me to travel to your home when needed. I work remotely once or twice a week and I’m happy to stay in your home to care for your babies. I’m the type of person that will want to know how you care for your pet. I want to care for your pet as similarly to as possible, without interrupting, usual routines. I’m very flexible about schedules.

“Katie is an amazing dog sitter. She was patient and understating. Winston wouldn’t go near her for about 36-48 hours. She sat and waited for Winston to come to her. Not every person has this ability but Katie sure does. I would highly recommend her for all your furbaby needs. I surely would hire her again!”

“Reza is amazing. He took such wonderful care of both of my dogs. One is leash reactive and the other has separation anxiety. He was able to work with them and meet their individual needs. I came home to 2 very happy dogs and my apartment just as I left it. Reza’s communications with me were great and I got pictures of my dogs. Reza will always be my first choice. Without a doubt I recommend Reza to anyone looking for a kind animal loving person to look after their pets.”

“Barbara was a caring, conscientious sitter for our dog and cat. She sent us lots of photos, which I love, and they both looked happy and relaxed in all of them. We came home to two well cared-for pets! We’ve already booked her to stay with Sasha and Mickey again!”

Meredith M.

“Nicole house sat for our cats and was wonderful! Very easy to communicate with and friendly. I would definitely book her again and recommend her”

Joshua K.

“Linh did such an amazing job with my dog Blue! It was evident that she is very skilled with dogs of all kinds and mine loved and trusted her so much! She was great with communication about Blue and sent me pictures while I was away that helped me miss him less. I’m so thankful for Linh taking such good care of my pup and would recommend her to watch any dog. She also left our apartment cleaner than she found it!”

“Ashely was amazing. Super responsive and responsible. Took such great care of our dogs as though they were her own. It was July 4 weekend and one of our dogs is terrified of fireworks. Ashely cuddled with her through the night until the fireworks were over to make sure she was comfortable. Will definitely use Ashely again!”
