“Skylar was great with my cats. She took care of my boys food, water and litter boxes. She then gave them some quality time which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Skylar to watch your fur babies.”
“Claudia did a great job. House was clean and tidy when I returned, and best of all my cat didn't seem traumatized by my extended absence. Being gone 3 weeks, I'd ask Claudia to snap a pic or two of the squishy little fuzzball and send them to me and she would, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Claudia again.”
“Shylynn you were wonderful! Meme was taken such good care of while we were traveling. I never thought to put on bird and critters on the TV but now that’s his favorite thing😂. Thanks again and we hope to book with you in the future!”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, which gave me early experience with daily pet care. This included feeding, walking, grooming, and playtime. Over the years, I’ve provided pet sitting for friends and neighbors while they were on vacation, caring for a variety of pets and making sure they felt comfortable and loved while their owners were away. Playing and spending time with animals is something that brings me a lot of joy. I understand the importance of giving pets the attention, care, and affection they need to feel safe and happy. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday but it is very flexible and mostly working from home. I am available for walks and drop in visits every day of the week. I offer walks and drop-in visits at clients' homes. I can also feed, play and cuddle with your fur babies so that you can have peace of mind to carry on with your day knowing your pet is well taken care of.
“Trina is a great cat sitter I really appreciate everything she did with my little fur babies she played with them and kept them happy Thank you so much for all the help I really appreciate it and will definitely use her again”
“Jennifer was wonderful with our two kitties! We just added a new kitten to the family and it was our first time leaving them alone. Jennifer gave us wonderful detailed updates, lots of pictures, and provided a few suggestions. Much appreciated! We felt so comfortable with her taking care of our little ones. Highly recommended!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I had a great experience with Lisa! She came to meet our cats before our trip and made sure to send photos when she checked in on them each day. Would absolutely recommend her and use her in the future!”
“Melanie is an amazing sitter, we have been using her for a while and continues to be our go to sitter. She is so thorough during her visits and in her card notes, we feel at ease leaving our senior, diabetic kitty in her care. In our latest time away, our cat got sick, repeatedly, and she cleaned up everything and let us know how he was doing. She even spoke with our vet and found ways to make our kitty more comfortable until we got back. She goes above and beyond and treats our pet as her own!”
About: I’m an experienced pet owner and have cared for my own dog for 13 years now. Along with dogs I have owned/cared for cats, rats, and lizards. When I was younger I worked on a farm and developed a deep love for animals. I live a very active lifestyle and would be stoked to take your pet out for walks, runs, hikes, and beach day swimming! I have a large vehicle which has easy transportation for bigger dogs. I take the time to establish a genuine connection with your pet and want to foster a bond built on mutual understanding and respect. Having trust from you and your pet is an important relationship to have. I want you to be sure that your furry loved one and your home is being taken care of in the safest and best way possible for you. I am a full time worker and van-lifer. My home is on wheels which makes it easy to move around to meet your home sitting needs. My normal work week is Monday-Friday in Capitola. I’m not able to host animals in my home. Coming to your home is the best option, and making your pet feel safe and comfortable is #1!
About: I am a licensed science teacher who transitioned into the world of animal medicine and now human medicine. I have actively worked in a variety of specialty hospitals and currently support a family medical practice in Soquel. Not only can you feel confident that your pet will be taken care of by a professional in the field , but know that I have completed animal training courses that will be useful if I am walking your pet or positively reinforcing new expectations while house sitting. With regards to house sitting, I am trained and certified to administer injections, oral medications , and comfortable with pets who may need extra care (e.g. animals that are blind, feeding tubes, etc) . I am also open to more questions with regards to my training and background, so please do not hesitate to ask. I have random opportunities during the day and open on weekends. I am a full time practicing medical provider but do have cancelations and typically know my schedule ahead of time. I like to understand the pet's routine and safe spaces. If they have triggers or routines that help them, I would like to know about them.
About: I've taken care of my own dogs and cats and have always had special bonds with animals and would love the opportunity to work together! I am a college athlete at cabrillo and am looking for a more flexible schedule. I can be available mornings, nights weekdays and all day weekends. I am flexible when it comes to having different dogs in situations and am ready and able to accommodate you and your dogs! I will always be mindful of what them and their needs
About: Caring for pets has always been more than just a job for me—it's a passion. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. From playful puppies learning their first commands to senior dogs needing extra patience and care, I understand the unique attention each stage of life requires. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and routine so they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’m experienced with basic puppy training, leash manners, and crate training. For older pets, I provide gentle, attentive support—whether that means administering medication, helping with mobility, or simply offering lots of love and companionship. I believe communication is key, so I always keep pet parents updated with photos and notes to ensure peace of mind while you're away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I work in IT from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I can easily fit their needs into my daily routine. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space—and your pet—with the same respect and attention I give my own. I follow your routines closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or house rules, to keep your dog comfortable and stress-free. I understand how important trust is when someone enters your home, and I always communicate clearly, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you feel at ease while you're away. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate special requests or routines to help them feel secure. Whether your dog needs quiet companionship, active playtime, or just a calm presence while you're gone, I provide reliable, loving care every time.

Grace took care of our boys for 3 days while we went away to get married. She is the best sitter we could have hoped for. We got so many pictures and complete updates. We felt like we were home with them. She went above and beyond to take care of them. We are so grateful. Obi and Butter had such a great time. Thank you so much !
