1. Avichai L.
“Avi was the epitome of the perfect house and pet sitter. We could not have asked for anyone better for our two elderly, slightly high maintenance pets. He was communicative, sent photos, ask questions when needed, and left her house immaculate. We would trust Avi with our home and our pets any day and can’t recommend him enough!”
2. David L.
“David is conscientious, respectful, reliable and low key. He initiated a revisit with the dogs since our original introduction had been over a month from when we actually needed him to sit. When we returned everything was just as we left it. From the photos he sent, the dogs clearly accepted him as one of the pack right away. We will be working with David more in the future.”
3. Reine E.
“Reine is so amazing! She is reliable and dependable. And always put her best foot forward with everything she does. She is a real professional.”
4. Mackenzie J.
“Excellent communication. I felt my pups were safe and well taken care of with the daily detailed updates and photos. Came back home from my vacation like I had never left. I would definitely hire again. Thank you!”
5. Katelyn F.
“I could not recommend Katelyn more than enough to pet sit your baby. My beast is VERY particular who he allows around him, even more so in his senior years. On top of that with his age he requires special care that is high maintenance. With Katelyn watching over him I can leave and go on trips without concern or worry as I know he is in fantastic hands. She even takes that extra step to check in with pictures and videos of how he's doing. She has been his caregiver when I am out of town for the last 5 years. If you're leaving the country or just going on a quick outing; Katelyn is the one to trust your fur/scale/feathered kids with.”
6. Avonlea A.
“Our dog loves Avonlea and has the best time with her! She is very communicative and sends lots of photos to keep us updated while we’re away. She watched her over the 4th of July and stayed with her during the fireworks to make sure she didn’t panic. She’s the best!”
7. Emilie G.
“Emilie was great! She was early for the meet and greet, o time for the job, and was neat and tidy. I’m sure my fur-son had the best time with her!”
8. Berenice E.
“Berenice is absolutely wonderful, kind, youthful and fun to walk my dog and play with her or just chill and watch movies with her in our hotel room while I went out to lunch and wineries and dinner. Berenice personality is SO kind, gentle and loving to my dog! Wish she lived in Los Angeles I would hire her weekly for walking . 10 stars ⭐️ ! Thanks Berenice”
9. Heather D.
“Heather was responsive and flexible as our timeline changed for our house/dog sitting. She's got great energy and the pups felt immediately comfortable around her. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a short or longer term sitter!”
10. Kaitlin M.
“Kaitlin did a wonderful job cat sitting our cat while we were away. She sent photos and updates daily. She took great care of our cat and our home. We will definitely have her stay at our house again. She’s an exceptional animal person that can be trusted. Our cat loved having her at our house and we loved going on vacation knowing our cat and home were very well taken care of.”
11. Twila J.
“Twila was wonderful! I Have a senior dog that went through major trauma a month ago. She was viciously attacked by another dog. Twila took such good care of her and all pictures she sent me were of a mellow, serene, happy dog. Will definitely use her again!”
12. Andrew C.

“As a mom to a lovely girl, Kerry for sure is one of the most patient person I know. She is not only patient to kids also to pets. She was growing up in a village in China and got to help her parents with raising pigs, chicks, ducks and cows. She also had a dog during her childhood and had a lot fun.”
18. Tina G.
“Tina did a great job with our shy dogs. They take some time to warm up to new people. She was respectful and communicative. Would definitely work with her again!”
19. Shiva S.
“Shiva took great care of my dog & cat while we were away. Our dog can be a bit skeptical of people at first but she took to her very quickly. The house was left in great condition. I would reach out to Shiva again for any future needs.”
20. Sara O.
“I can highly recommend Sara!!! Anytime I checked in on Emma and Sara, I received a prompt text back with an image of my baby. Emma was really well taken care off, and my house was spic and spam upon my return. I am thrilled to know that I can leave on an other trip without my dog, and I can rely on Sara taking excellent care of Emma.”
