3. David D.
“I was really nervous about leaving my pup for a week. I met David before leaving and he gave my dog a lot of love and pets when they met and he clearly had so much love for dogs, which made me feel a lot better. He has experience with anxious dogs and is very kind. He was very responsible and always sent pictures and responded right away to my texts while I was gone. I will definitely be requesting his services again!”

5. Kaitlyn M.
“Kaitlyn is, in a word, AMAZING! She loves our dogs as if they were her own. Kaitlyn is always willing to go the extra mile, giving them an additional walk or spending extra time playing with them. We can always count on her to properly feed and exercise them, and she is very responsible about giving the dogs their medications and grooming them, as necessary. Kaitlyn goes above and beyond to create a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for our dogs, and her genuine affection for our pets is evident in the personalized attention she provides. Our dogs love spending time with her, and enjoy activities tailored to their preferences, ensuring a happy and stress-free experience when we are gone. What sets Kaitlyn apart is her unwavering reliability and communication. We received regular updates, including photos and detailed reports on our dogs' well-being. It brought us immense peace of mind knowing that our furbabies were in such capable hands. We can recommend Kaitlyn to anyone who wants the world's best petsitter (just please don't book her when we need her – the dogs would never forgive us!)”
6. Annie S.
“First of all, Annie is a lover of animals and has had pets in her world from a young age. Dogs, bunnies, cats and even some fish. She is such a kind person to all things - humans and animals! Annie has done house sitting for me which included caring for my precious cat. I never worried that any detail of caring for Lucy (my cat) would be missed. Annie is extremely organized and pays attention to details and instructions. I highly recommend Annie for any task put in front of her. JoAnn Winter”
7. Rose T.
About: Grew up in Santa Cruz and love the neighborly vibe! I’ve had pets my whole life yet now travel and would love caring for yours! With my flexible work schedule I can work from anywhere, therefore, my ability to take on last minute jobs. I’m an early riser and enjoyed taking walks and hikes. I enjoy watching pets in their own home, so that they are in their comfort zone and keep their routine. Over time, getting to know how they like to live life on the inside and the outside of their environment.
8. Ethan W.
“Ethan is punctual, polite, considerate and so kind. A gentleman. He has a flexible schedule so reditly available. He is so attentive to Shelby. She is very attached to me so she usually pulls any dog walker back home. Not so with Ethan. She arrived at the front door happy after a 35 minute walk which included the beach! Photos AND map of walk were sent after. He asked for a towel to wipe her down ( drizzle out) and took 5 minutes wiping her down. i hesitate saying all of this because I want Ethan just for Shelby. They are now friends.”
9. Jasmine M.
“Jasmine is amazing! Our dogs love her and she takes great care of them. She has experience with both big and small dogs, older and younger, and we have one of each! Highly recommend for any dog care. Thank you Jasmine! 😊”
10. Macy M.
“Macy has watched my goldendoodle and Persian cat for the past few years. I know I never have to worry when I am out of town and Macy is in charge of my pets and my home. I trust her more than my family and friends. Both of my animals adore her and her promptness, extra care and updates have made it so I never have to worry when I need to leave town. She also stops by and takes my dog for walks if I get stuck in traffic or have an emergency. She is an absolute angel and my family and I are so lucky to have her. I would recommend Macy for anyone who needs a pet sitter or dog walker without reservation”

12. Hannah G.
“Hannah has petsit for my Labradoodle on several occasions, and I trust her completely with handling the many needs of my dog. She has a special knack with animals and makes their health, safety, and happiness her top priority. Hannah is a trustworthy, reliable, and easy-going person who works incredibly well with animals. My dog, who is timid by nature, opened up to Hannah immediately. She has my highest recommendation as your next dog walker/sitter.”
13. Maria C.
“Maria is an amazing pup and cat sitter. I was so nervous about leaving my boxer and kitty since I had never left them with anyone outside our family but Maria was just wonderful. Maria immediately made both my fur babies feel right at home. She constantly sent me updates with both pictures and videos which I loved. Maria is definitely my go to sitter that I have continued to use over the past year. My fur babies just love her!”

16. Desiree Y.
About: I have an adorable rescue dog named Ollie. He is almost 4 years old and such a good boy. I also used to have dogs when I was younger. My work allows me chunks of time off between jobs. Often, I’ll end up with a month or so at home. I take lots of neighborhood walks with my dog. I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own to keep yours company. There is also an option to section off the house with a dog gate if needed.
17. Aimee R.
About: I’ve had animals all my life but have recently started taking care of neighbors pets. I provided services of walks and overnight for both cats and dogs. I am currently home from college so I have a very open schedule this summer to take care of pets as needed depending on the animal. I can easily walk your pet and love spending time with animals. I can easily adapt to the need of individual animals and love to care for them.
18. Lisa E.
“Lisa's gentle confidence was a terrific match for my nervous rescue pup. He hopped right into her lap upon their first meeting. Lisa took great care to build Stan's trust while also reading and responding to his comfort levels on their walks. We will continue to call on Lisa!”
19. Misato I.
“Misa took time to do a meet and greet with us and our dog, Edgar, and was so kind and organized. A week later she walked our dog Edgar during the day when both my husband and I were traveling for work. She sent pictures and updates, and Edgar was so happy when we got home. Will definitely ask Misa to come help us again in the future!”
20. Lily A.
“Lily was amazing! I was in a pinch stuck in traffic and she was quick to respond and reassure me my pup was in good hands. She even sent a photo to capture his happiness! I would 100% use Lily again!”
