Megan is always on time and does an excellent job of keeping me informed of how things are going. She’s taken the time to get to know my dog and his preferences, which makes me feel better about being away from him. I know he’s happy with Megan!

Emilie is amazing!! We have a very timid and shy cat who hides under our bed whenever a new visitor comes over. He was already warmed up to her on the second day and giving her cuddles and purring like crazy. She goes above and beyond when it comes to following requests and is incredibly sweet. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a big hearted, highly professional pet sitter. 10/10!! 🩷

I love Trisha! She’s been taking care of my three cats and dog for over a year now! She’s friendly, professional and caring. Not to mention, she’s a spiritual energy healer so having her in my home feels great. My fur babies are always happy when I get home. I attribute that due to how she takes care of them. The cats and dog all get lots of attention! She’s been great about bringing packages and mail into the house. She sends me photos and videos daily. Thank you, Trisha for all you do for us!!

I highly recommend Kathryn as a great dog sitter! She has looked after my dog, Piper, a few times, and I always feel completely at ease leaving her in Kathryn's care. Piper loves to play and Kathryn knew how to connect with her right away. Kathryn is conscientious and responsive, providing updates and pictures while I’m away. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Kathryn is the perfect choice.

Stephanie took great care of my two cats while I was away! I felt so reassured having such a kind and caring sitter who clearly loves animals and took a great deal of time and effort with my cats to make sure that they were safe and happy. I really appreciated the level of detail in each visit recap, photos, and actively updating me on their behavior/mood during her drop-ins. Could not ask for a better experience, to set my mind at ease so I could have a great trip. Thank you Stephanie! 🐈‍⬛🖤

Leyla is very patient with Hana, she spends lots of time during the meet and greet to warm up with her. She took good care for my cat during the visit, would definitely ask her to look after my cat again if needed.

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, and I’m lucky to share my home with my 6-year-old dog, Dakota, who I raised from a puppy. She’s my whole world! Outside of caring for her, I work with children full time so compassion and caregiving are at the core of who I am. Whether your furry friend needs companionship, exercise, or just a little extra love, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well loved—just like I do for my own. Your pet will be in great hands! I have a very flexible schedule! I'm available before 9am and after 3pm on weekdays, and usually available on weekends if you let me know ahead of time. When I’m walking your dog in the community, I’ll treat them like my own, staying vigilant and mindful of our surroundings—whether it’s traffic, other people, or other dogs. I’ll only visit dog parks if specifically requested and will make sure your pet remains on leash at all times.

We are so lucky that Thomas is our most trusted caregiver for our dog child, Sandy, and home sitter for our spot in Sebastopol, CA. After considering our long list of good friends, colleagues, cohorts and family, we always only ever call Thomas and honestly if he's not a available, we postpone our trip until his schedule opens up. He's really the only one we trust to exercise Sandy and provide the loving attention we would if we were home. He's also very attentive to plants, all types, and our chickens ~ which we were so grateful he knew how to manage. Thank You Thomas for being so exceptionally attentive and caring!

Adrienne is AMAZING!!!!! Our pets loved her so much, right off the bat. She has a calming presence to her that really put us all at ease. I knew right away that she would be our go-to gal. Adrienne took excellent care of our babies and our home while we were away. She was great at communicating and finding times that worked for us both to meet us initially and to exchange keys. She kept our house clean and well cared for. She sends pics of your furbabies while away too! I would absolutely recommend Adrienne to anyone looking for a responsible, and loving sitter!
