This was our second time booking with G’la, and once again, she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She took care of our dog Finn and cat Tuna while we were in Mexico for our wedding, and knowing they were with someone they already loved made all the difference. Our boys adore her! It’s clear they feel safe, spoiled, and totally at home in her care. She kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful check-ins, and we came home to two very happy pets (and a clean house!). G’la is trustworthy, kind, and just really gets animals. We wouldn’t leave Finn and Tuna with anyone else. Five stars, every time!

Juniper is a nervous cat and it’s easy to see when she’s upset because she’ll hide and, fun fun, throw up. I could tell that Kerri took great care of Juniper because when I got home Juniper was calm and loving. Kerri’s pleasant and easy to work with. I’d definitely hire her again!

Qishu (and Ian) were wonderful guests in our home, housesitters and keepers of our pups and flock of chickens. Qishu kept us updated frequently and sent lots of pictures and videos of our furbabies while we were gone. One of our pups has boundless energy and Qishu didn’t flinch! She event spent time working on commands and training the pups while we were out. She left the house cleaner than it was when we left and was very respectful. I’d recommend Qishu (and Ian) to anyone anytime.

I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!

Cleopatra watched my cat for 5 weeks, I’m a first time pet owner and was leaving my baby for the first time, needless to say I was nervous! She was amazing from start to finish, super responsive, she sent me lots of pics of my very happy and spoiled cat :) If you’re considering booking with Cleopatra, I can’t recommend her enough. The peace of mind to know that my pet was in good hands was priceless!

Dennis is a considerate and kind person, a wonderful dog sitter for us and our German Shepherd. Our GSD is older and requires a cart when being walked. Dennis took the time to ask for what he needed to feel comfortable getting her into and out of the cart, making sure he had the dietary and medication needs defined, and meeting with us to ensure everyone thought it was a good fit. I highly recommend Dennis if you need a pet sitter! He left our home just as it was when we left, and we had the peace of mind of knowing our special-needs dog was well cared for while we were away.

Excellent service. Dane has great communication. He updates me everytime he comes and check on the pups. He takes cute pictures of them and spent time with each one, make sure they get all the attention they need. One of my dogs is reactive and difficult to handle, while most people turn him away, Dane makes sure he gets the care that he needs. I’m for sure will be a returning customer.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, from childhood companions to the many pups I’ve had as an adult, including Shiba Inus, Labs, and a Goldendoodle. I also have experience pet sitting from my college days and love animals of all kinds. Whether your dog prefers hiking trails or lounging at home, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I’m reliable, grounded, and kind-hearted, with a strong attention to detail, I’m comfortable following specific feeding routines, administering medications, and respecting whatever schedule your pet is used to. I’m genuinely excited to care for your furry family member and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after while you're away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or hang out with your kitties and give them the attention they deserve. Let me know about any special needs or preferences your pet has, including toys, walking or play styles. I'm happy to accommodate them on my visits. I provide a calm, caring environment and pay close attention to every detail, from feeding routines and medication schedules to subtle changes in behavior, so your pet feels secure and understood. I'm reliable, grounded, and deeply respectful of the trust you place in me, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own.

About: I’ve grown up and taken care a variety of animals from dogs (all sizes), cats, rabbits, chickens & even lizards. I’ve done dog walking in highschool and worked at pet food express in 2022 where I learned a lot about grooming, health, training & more! Currently free and available (unless stated I’m book) till the August 8 because I’ll be relocating for college in Southern California. If you see I’m book, still reach! I may be flexible and can work out my schedules. During my free time I’m usually at home with my cats & dog teaching them new tricks or giving them extra love, but I would love to help someone else take care of theirs and give their animals some care while their owners are away or working.

Emily took wonderful care of my senior, special needs, dog. He is blind and prone to confusion in new places or with new people, but he took to Emily right away. I was delighted to get lots of photos of him snuggled with her on the sofa and enjoying his favorite park several blocks away (he has a stroller). She took note of and adapted herself to his schedule and routines, and when I got home he was the mellowest I’d seen him after one of my absences. She is clearly a senior dog whisperer!

Alison is absolutely wonderful! She took such loving care of our two dogs, and we could tell they were happy and comfortable while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and trustworthy. We came home to happy pups. I live in the San Diego area and I am sad that Alison doesn’t live closer to us, but will definitely ask her to sit for our pups next time we’re in San Francisco!

Kerri is great! Professional, caring, attentive and genuine in her love of fur babies. 🐶❤️ I really appreciate how consistent she is with communication before, during and after her stay.

Ariana is a very trusted, reliable overnight sitter! She was very detail oriented and patient with our large breed teenage puppy. He quickly warmed up to her and adjusted to her reinforcement of our training. We are so grateful for all the steps and playtime she got in, keeping him tired and happy!

Aman is quick to reply and very communicative. It's clear our pit bull, Munchie, loves spending time with him, which puts our dog parent nerves at ease while we're away. He takes the extra time and effort to bring her out and about to other parts of town for a diversity of walks, which we appreciate because car rides are one of Munchie's favorite activities. With Aman, you'll come home to a happy and healthy dog.

Alix did an excellent job taking care of Cassie. She was prompt and friendly and very responsible. When our plane was delayed, she was very sympathetic and stayed longer than requested to make sure our dog, who has separation anxiety, was not left alone too long. We will definitely be using her again.

Hallie took great care of our dog! We have a very energetic dog who loves hikes and needs nourishment throughout the day. She did everything we asked and defiantly tired him out with long hikes each day! Communication was fast and easy and she left our house clean and in the same condition as when we left. We would definitely recommend and use again … oh and they even went and got a pup cup lol. ☺️

Casey did another awesome job at caring for our family pets ranging from 1 year old puppy to our super senior dog and cat. She was flexible and really tuned into their unique and special needs. She sincerely cares for them. She also gave us detailed and entertaining updates with cute photos & left our place as we left it. Thank you again for your wonderful care Casey!

Brady was a wonderful dog/cat/house sitter, we would absolutely trust him to care for our critters again. Everything went super smoothly, I loved getting some pictures and videos of our buds while we were away. Thanks Brady!

Sam is fantastic, a true master communicator with dogs. She adores living their lives with them, taking them out on the trails and playing their favorite games. Couldn’t be happier to leave our pup in her hands when we’re out of town.

Dawnly was so responsive and willing to jump in and help out when we needed last minute coverage. Our dogs are not the friendliest with newcomers, and they handled them our babies with love and grace. They took great care of our fur babies and were very communicative when they had questions to give our babies the best care. One of our dogs requires meds and Dawnly carefully followed the schedule for administering meds. We would love to work with them again.

This was our second time booking with G’la, and once again, she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She took care of our dog Finn and cat Tuna while we were in Mexico for our wedding, and knowing they were with someone they already loved made all the difference. Our boys adore her! It’s clear they feel safe, spoiled, and totally at home in her care. She kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful check-ins, and we came home to two very happy pets (and a clean house!). G’la is trustworthy, kind, and just really gets animals. We wouldn’t leave Finn and Tuna with anyone else. Five stars, every time!

Diana took excellent care of my pup, Luna, during a long trip this summer. She kept me posted with photos and descriptions of their adventures and she was careful to check in with me whenever she had a question about Luna’s care. Diana left my house clean and tidy and even gave my pup a bath! I would definitely recommend Diana’s services and I hope to hire her again in the future.

Tia is an absolute gem of a human! My babies adored her. She was attentive, caring, and so sweet! I have an XXXL dog + a medium o up & a cat & she spent time with each of them, walked the pups twice a day, and made time to play with my kitten. 10/10 recommend- she’s fantastic!

Have you ever wanted to travel but the spot wouldn't allow your dog?! I was invited by friends to a place that I really wanted to go for a few days off work that sadly didn't allow dogs (other than service animals). While I feel like Aggie provides a lot of services to me :), she technically isn't a service animal, so I was on the fence on going. My friend actually recommended Charlene, and I'm reaaaaaaaly glad they did! In sum, Charlene was incredibly responsive, responsible, and thoughtful about the house sitting arrangement. I appreciated our phone call and in-person visit before my trip/the exchange - it was a nice chance to bring our profiles to life, talk through questions, look at the actual spaces. Charlene asked really thorough questions, which made me feel at ease and at peace to be able to make this trip happen. I loved getting a few photos during my time way - walking, hanging out at the house, sleeping, etc. - and getting short updates from Charlene once in a while. Charlene helped give me piece of mind which helped me to relax more during my trip. On day 2 of my trip, I had a deep inkling/feeling in my stomach about something that I needed to communicate with Charlene regarding Aggie and her care. I texted Charlene in the early morning, and Charlene responded back by the end of the morning to help address it - that gave me so much peace of mind, and I appreciated Charlene's responsiveness and flexibility! It was sweet to reconnect back with Aggie and Charlene at my return/pick up, and I'm grateful Charlene and I had a moment to talk more about their time together at that moment. Aggie seemed happy and content during our reunion :) My infatuation and obsession with dogs started at an early age for me, and I think there's something special about people who've had dogs in their lives. There's an ease, deep level of sympathy/empathy, trust, and both a firmness and softness that I witness in dog caregivers.. I witness all of these things and more in Charlene, and I believe any dog/animal would be lucky to be taken care of by Charlene. Highly recommended!

Mary was a great fit for our dog and cat, Poppy and Lola! She stayed in the home with them while we were out of town and sent us photos daily (so we would miss them a little less!). Mary has a calm and centered demeanor and quickly gained our trust. We will definitely call on her again!

Thuy took care of my cat for 10 days when I was travelling. She did a combination of drop offs and cat sitting to make sure my cat is fine. She was very friendly and communicative. I will definitely book her again

10/10. No notes. Dionna was amazing!! She was so detailed, organized, thoughtful, and caring when looking after our 2 cats and Bernese Mountain Dog. She sent photos and videos regularly so we always had peace of mind. One of our cats can be skittish and grumpy around strangers but he seemed comfortable and at ease right away with Dionna. Would absolutely recommend Dionna for your pet care needs!
