House Sitting in Santa Margarita

“Riley was the best! We’re always so nervous leaving our pup and she made us feel totally comfortable the entire time with lots of communication and great pictures. Salem is a big girl with a lot of energy and Riley managed her so well. We’re so appreciative to have found her!”

“My animals were happy and she took our cat Alice to the vet for us a couple of times for her water treatment. I am very happy she was able to stay with our animals. Brittany is always very positive and responds to messages. She is honest and I trust her with my fur babies.”

“Nicole was a highly professional and very engaging House/Dog sitter over the weekend. She left notes on her activities and left the house in perfect order! She was able to meet my puppies unique needs and took her on lots of walks around the neighborhood. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a dog walker or sitter.”

“Fletcher was wonderful sitting with our dog. She is a rescue, and still deals with some anxieties—Fletcher was kind, patient and understanding with her. We will be happy to work with him again.”

“We really like Paige and more importantly our little Zuzu felt safe & secure while we had Paige stay in our home with Zuzu for a week. We came home to a happy & healthy dog. Paige was easy to communicate with and she sent us pictures of our puppy. She left our house in order as we had left it. She even did some watering for me. We thank Paige for being helpful and kind.”

“Emily was wonderful! She sent photos with an update daily, and made us feel confident our dogs were in good hands while we were out of town. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

“Averee is a wonderful pet caregiver! She is very responsible and loving, and my dog always seems happy and well-cared for when I leave him with her. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Rover team, I am confident that Adrian will be a great sitter and dog walker, providing the best care and service to animals in his area. I have known Adrian personally for years- he was always trusted with our friends dogs to pet sit as well as his own. He is attentive, loving, and gentle! I noticed he was good at settling any conflict between our friends' dogs too. Aside from this, Adrian is generally a responsible person with a positive attitude, and very adaptable to any situation. I hope you highly consider adding him to a great team of walkers/sitters.”

About: As a dedicated pet sitter and caregiver serving the beautiful Central Coast and San Luis Obispo counties, I bring a natural nurturing spirit and a deep love for animals to every service I provide. I pride myself on being a protector and a friend to your furry family members, ensuring they receive the highest level of care and attention. No request is too big or too small when it comes to your beloved companions. With a special expertise in caring for geriatric dogs aged 15 and older, as well as cats, I am committed to meeting and exceeding the expectations of my clients. Your pets deserve the best, and I am fully supportive of that. I have about 5 clients I house/pet sit when they travel and I just absolutely have a passion for pet caregiving. I currently am a student, I work part time as a preschool substitute for SLOCOE and a nonprofit that services persons with developmental disabilities. I just enjoy serving my community members and their pets! When I am in your home to care for your family pet I let them know I am there primarily to cater to their pets needs. Playtime, feeding, potty time, walks/runs, pets, treats, meds* if needed and cuddle/quiet time. I also make sure I leave a clean and tidy house. Unless noted. I know I enjoy coming home to a clean house. Trash out, clean sink/dishes(pet used), swept/vacuum, litter box, yard pooper- scooped. I am happy to accommodate other requests. (Depending upon request there may be a nominal fee)

“Kathy house/pet sat for us for 3 weeks taking care of our outside kitty and our geriatric inside kitty. She was very conscientious, keeping me in the loop with questions,concerns, updates and photos! She loves animals, and seems to have a special place in her heart for the geriatric ones. I plan to use her services again and again! I highly recommend her!”

“We can leave our home with knowing that Shea will care for our home, animals and property! We have used her for overnight sitting and some check in/play time potty breaks. She leaves our home in great condition and our two dogs love hanging out with her.”

About: I have experience with a range of animals, including but not limited to dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, birds & fish. I regularly hike and would love to be able to take your fur baby with me (if they have certain restrictions, we will discuss that upon drop off or via the first meet & greet). I do accept Maligators, pit bulls and other breeds (deemed "dangerous" by society and its well established standards. I am working part time as a hospice care aide and going to school part time which allows me have some flexibility on the days that I work overnight. When in my home, I'll have the ability to have 1 on 1 time with your little one for training, exercises and cuddles (of course). My home has a doggie door that attaches to a locked outdoor kennel area (Yes, it has a roof to prevent any houdinis from escaping) so that they may have access to fresh air whenever they desire it. The kennel also has wiring and a mesh below the initial grass/dirt area to prevent diggers from tunneling under. My yard is fenced in as well.

“Joshuah was a life saver. He made himself available near the last minute, and when my flight wad delayed, he stayed a couple hours longer than scheduled. He left the place just as clean as I left it, and most importantly, I came home to happy critters! He also sent several pictures every day, which I loved, especially as I was a couple thousand miles away.”

“Nicole has been working in the pet industry for many years and was even a veterinary technician. I rescue senior and medically fragile dogs and I would trust her with them any time. She is familiar with all breeds of dogs as well as cats, horses, and more. She is patient and kind and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Lauren did a great job. She got along with our dog (Zeva) very well, taking interest and spending time. She was also willing to do small, but helpful, tasks around our home. She responded to messages and requests promptly.”

“Devon is a reliable and loving kitty companion, playmate and caretaker. Highly recommend!”

“Emily took excellent care of my dog and my home while I was out of town. She’s a communicative and thoughtful pet sitter, and I’d definitely work with her again in the future!”

“Maggie was so easy to work with and provided great care to our kitty while we were gone. She was very flexible with us and kept open communication. Thank you Maggie!”

“Kaixia is fantastic-super reliable, flexible, and great with my two. She sent some pix while watching them, which I really appreciated!!!”

“Tracy was a lifesaver and took great care of my dog so I could attend a family event. Would definitely hire her again.”
