“Jimena was fabulous! She communicated well and hung out with our dogs the whole time. She sent a ton of pics and I could tell our dogs loved her.”


4. Erica G.
“I am so grateful for Erica!! She has kept my dog (9 year old goldendoodle) and cat (1 year old) countless times!! My pets absolutely adore her and she always treats them like her own! She is very communicative, friendly, trustworthy, caring, and even sent pictures of them all the time when I was away! She is a pet lover herself and got just as excited to see my animals as they did to see her. You won't find a better pet sitter!! - love Savannah T., Piper, and Goose”

“Yara is fantastic! She was so communicative, sent plenty of photos throughout the day, and we could tell she really understands dogs exceptionally well. We would absolutely love to work with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog while in the Carmel area!”


6. Andrew S.

7. Elliott P.
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have taken care of many from different sizes, ages and breeds. I believe I am a great person for the job because I will make sure that your pet is treated very well and has a great day while being apart from their owner. I’m always active which helps with going on walks especially if they like long walks. You can always count on me to be there when need and go above and beyond my efforts to make sure your dogs are given a great experience and you as well. I’m currently looking for a job during the summer and will be attending saddleback community college in the fall but as of now I’m very open with my schedule. I will follow all given directions and schedule. Make sure to give them attention and take them out to go to the bathroom or walk. Will make sure there is food and especially water accessible for the dog always. And I will of course make sure doors that need to be locked are locked before I leave your dog.


8. Alecia D.

“Alecia was wonderful with our little dog and cat during the 2 weeks she house sat. She had great questions when we first met with her. She was very thoughtful and diligent with updates and pictures. She also cared well for our home and left it sparkling clean, which was so nice to come home to. We would and will happily work with her again and highly recommend her. Thank you again for everything, Alecia! :)”


9. Alexandria R.
“As a dog owner, you know how challenging it can be to find the right pet sitter—someone who is honest, compassionate, and firm when needed. For us, these qualities are non-negotiable, especially since we travel frequently. Without the right care, pets can easily pick up bad habits after any extended trip. Thankfully, Alex has been a game-changer. She’s our go-to sitter every time we can’t bring our furbabies along. Not only does she embody all the qualities we value, but she consistently exceeds expectations. Alex keeps us up to date on their activities, diligently follows our detailed instructions (yes, we’re those parents), and, most importantly, notifies us immediately of any health concerns. Honestly, I’d prefer to keep Alex to ourselves, but every pet deserves the kind of care she provides. If you’re looking for a phenomenal sitter, she’s the one!”


10. Katherine F.

“Kathy took amazing care of my two senior babies. She learned to read my dogs' mannerisms in a very very short period. As a new pets under her care, Kathy sent me frequent updates so that I knew the level of care and attention they were receiving. 10/10!!!”


11. Rebecca Y.
“My dog, Bagel, was so lucky to have Rebecca watch him for almost two weeks. She stayed overnight with him, took him to his favorite dog park daily, and he went on a lot of bonus outings with her. I don't know if he noticed we were gone because he had so much fun with her. Rebecca is very trustworthy, pays attention to all the little things that matter, and is very communicative. She's on the top of our list for dog sitting!”


12. Mandi A.

“Mandi was great. The boys seemed very content. My dog requiring shots was not apprehensive after which speaks positively. Would definitely recommend.”


13. Celine F.


“Celine was great with our two hounds. Daily updates and pictures of walks and activities. Our hounds loved her puppy as well. We hope to use Celine again!!!”


14. Jameson G.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I got my first dog when I was eight years old, and we were inseparable. I have always been people’s go to person to watch their pets! This led to me wanting to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. I have almost 5 years of clinical experience and am going to vet school this fall! I hope to give your pet the time and energy they need and I would love to update you with photos on all the fun things we do together. I am currently living at home for a few months before I start school in the fall. I am pretty flexible during the weekdays and weekends. I will care for your pets by feeding and talking them on walks as needed. I will also make sure our visits are stimulating and fun for them! We will spend some time hanging out and I would love to give them plenty of belly rubs and scratches.


15. Jayme W.

“Jayme is amazing! She’s so good with our little Charlie. He normally barks a bunch to get attention when someone comes over to walk him, but he didn’t do that with Jayme - I think he knew he’d get all the snuggles, treats, and attention! I would definitely recommend Jayme and book her again!”


16. Lamar A.

“We appreciated Lamar watching our cat Oats so much. We came home to a happy cat, a tidy house, and all was well! He was communicative, kind, and provided updates through the week with photos and videos. Thank you Lamar!!”


17. Andrew P.
“Drew was an excellent sitter for my Goldendoodle. He took such good care of her and always sent me updates on how she was doing. I would highly recommend Drew to anyone who needs a dog-sitter. He is very caring and pays a lot of attention to your fur baby, ensuring they are happy and well taken care of. Thank you, Drew, for taking care of my dog as if she were your own. She had so much fun!”


18. Janet C.

“Janet stayed at our home for a long weekend to watch our dogs, Milo and Ollie, and we're so thrilled to have someone we can trust take care of them while we're away! Ollie is very nervous around new people and takes time to open up. Janet was super patient with him and kept me posted on how he was doing in their interactions while we were gone. On top of that, Janet is prompt with communication, super professional, and did an excellent job looking after not just the dogs but our home, too. Looking forward to having her back again!”


19. Neil H.
“Neil is amazing. He approaches both animals and humans with compassion and insight. His demeanor and connection with dogs is incredible. I've never met a dog that didn't happily trot up to meet Neil. The bond and experience he shares with his own 3 dogs shows in the affection and admiration they display. Neil is enthralled with the bond shared between humans and their companions and trustworthy to the highest degree.”


20. Kamryn G.
“Kammie is a great caretaker for pets as she works for Unleashed by Petco and regularly looks after many friends’ pets. She absolutely loves animals, and she has always done her best to provide love and affection to all animals she encounters. With her own cats, Kammie closely regulates their diet to ensure they only eat the safest brands. Anyone would be lucky to have her as a dog walker!”
