House Sitting in Soquel

“Lupita is incredible. Our dog is very sweet but can be difficult when away from us due to separation anxiety. Lupita is patient and definitely a dog whisperer. The pics she sent us while we were out showed that he was able to relax with her. She earned his trust enough that he was willing to eat his food while we were out, which is not a usual occurrence. Lupita is also extremely responsive via the app, which is very much appreciated. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Grace was amazing. She came to meet me and Priya before my vacation, coordinated with another friend to be there when Priya was getting dropped off, was super responsive, and sent a ton of pictures. I'm confident Priya has a great time while I was out of town!!”

“Keith is the ideal person for this type of service. He is incredibly kind and respectful, leaves the house exactly like you left it, takes care of the dog’s necessities as well as their wants, and is super communicative throughout the entire process. Our dogs absolutely loved Keith and I’m positive we will stick with him as our dog sitter for the foreseeable future. Zero complaints or negative notes. Thanks so much Keith, and thank you for the home baked bread!!! See you next time.”

“Nora was absolutely fantastic! She stayed in our home for a week and took care of both our pup and home so well. We had a lot of specific requests and she went above and beyond meeting all of them. She was incredibly trustworthy and caring. She communicated frequently and sent lots of good update pics of our pup. I hope she will stay with our pup again in the future! If Nora is available, book her quick!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and had my own dogs since I was two years old. I often am asked to pet sit for my friends and neighbors animals. I am extremely patient and kind. Currently a college student with lots of free time. I am available almost any day and any night. I have lots of availability and time. I am in an area with lots of trails and areas for walks. I am within walking distance of a park. My house is clean and pet safe!

“Dylan is reliable, friendly and has a great rapport with all our pets, both feline and canine. They give loving attention to all, and we come home to a relaxed, unstressed crew.”

“Celeste took absolutely fantastic care of my dog and cat, sent lots of pictures and updates. Rate was reasonable and care was top tier. My house looked the same or better as I left it and I will definitely try to book Celeste next time I need pet/house sitting. Highly highly recommended!”

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’ve lived my entire life. I grew up with a golden retriever named Arwen, and from 8th grade on, I was fully responsible for her walks, training, and care. I even started waking up an hour earlier every day just to make sure she got her morning walk in before school! Later, when I moved to the U.S. for college, I helped raise and train my roommate’s husky puppy, Ava, who struggled with separation anxiety. I’d take her to class, skate with her to tire her out, and help her stay calm and confident. It was like co-parenting a very energetic fur baby—and I loved every minute. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities—from hyper puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. My husband and I pet sat for two elderly Bichon Frises (17 years old!) every year while their owners traveled, carefully managing their diet, medications, and gentle exercise. I’ve also grown to love cats after living with Archie—my first real cat roommate—and have experience gently brushing, bonding, and caring for both indoor and stray cats (I even accidentally helped my mom adopt a kitten when I took in a stray!). Most recently, I taught my in-laws’ senior dog Ellie new tricks at the age of 7, proving that even older pups can learn with patience and love. We can’t have pets in our home right now due to landlord restrictions, so pet sitting is how I stay connected to what I love most—animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I genuinely enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I am a bioengineering Ph.D. Student, most of the time I have freedom of picking my hours, as well as working from home when needed! I always start by learning as much as I can about your pet’s routine, preferences, health needs, and quirks. Whether it’s medication schedules, feeding routines, or special toys they love—I’m here to follow your instructions to a T. I do my best to keep your pet’s day feeling as normal as possible while you’re away. I’m extremely respectful of your home and always aim to leave it just as you left it (or better!). I double-check doors and windows, never leave pets unsupervised outside, and keep a tidy, pet-safe environment throughout the stay. I also send regular updates—photos, videos, and check-ins—so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for. If you ever need in-my-home care in the future (pending landlord approval!), my goal would be to provide a cozy, stress-free space that’s clean, safe, and set up to meet your pet’s unique needs.

“David is easygoing and helpful. He cared for our rescue pup who developed a double ear infection and needed some extra attention and medication. David handled it all and left our house clean. We give two paws up!”

“Marley took great care of Lola while we were out of town for two full weeks, and it was during a heat wave! Marley is very adept at handling dogs with anxiety and reactivity, so it gave us great peace of mind that Lola was in her care. We look forward to having Marley house and dog-sit again!”

About: Hi! I am an adventurous person looking for new experiences while caring for pets of all kinds. I have been around animals my entire life and love them dearly. My cat recently passed away and it has been a huge change not caring for an animal since I had her for 18 years. I am a trustworthy person. I don’t party, drink, or smoke. Your home and pets will always be taken care of while I’m there. I enjoy nature so walking and hiking are apart of my daily life. Your pups will always get walked for the time you recommend. I hope to meet you soon and be of service to you and your pet babies! I’m currently have a flexible schedule so please reach out so we can set up the best time and days that work best for you. I can easily follow whatever directions are given to me. My goal is to care for your pet just as if it is you caring for it yourself. I’m comfortable going to houses and can send updates to assure you they are taken care of.

“Lisa was so great with Luna boy! We are grateful for her communication, pictures, kindness and reliability. We can tell Luna enjoyed her. Would definitely recommend and use Lisa again to watch our pups! :)”

“Vlad was kind, attentive, and very trustworthy with my precious dog, Melody. I have a hard time trusting people with her care, and Vlad exceeded my expectations and did such a wonderful time. Was very thoughtful and communicative. I will work with him again.”

Stacey G.

“Emily was great! Abe was a happy boy when I got home.... place was very clean and organized, and sheets were put in the washing machine! Her communication was excellent - every day I got a pic and quick update. She noticed him licking his paw and saw it was red, so we were able to get some wipes to clean it which she did daily until I got home. Look forward to booking again!”

Rich K.

“Lila was attentive, thorough, and gave my dogs the care I want when I can't be home with them. She followed all instructions for medications and household items to handle and did more than what I had even asked. It is a huge relief knowing she is here with my dogs.”

Sarah W.

“Cassidy has watched our pup now twice. Once on a long extended stay and another for a last minute overnight request. In both instances she has done a fabulous job, kept us updated and made it so we don’t worry that our dog is in good hands so we can enjoy our trip. Will always have her first on the list of pet sitters we call!”

About: I took care of dogs since I was 8. My family taught me how to make sure the dogs are fed, given water, administering oral medications, walking; etc. I also house trained my current dog. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenary of free time on my plate. I usually work in the evenings. Sometimes I get called to work when needed I take my dog out for 30-45 minute walk twice a day, gave her chew brush biscuit after each walking sessions. I checked her bowl once or twice a day to ensure her water and foods are there for her to eat. I also brush Claire’s hair once a day.
