Great pet sitter! She stayed with my car Boba and spent the night. She was very professional and did a wonderful job sending me pictures. My cat looked so happy snuggled on her lap!

Darrah has taken care of my cat for the last three years. My cat truly adores her. Darrah is knowledgeable about how to care for animals and it really shows in how she builds trust with them. Furthermore, Darrah is knowledgeable, reliable, and consistent in her care. She is adaptable as well. I know my cat is in good hands when I am gone and that provides me with a sense of relief.

Alexandra love animals especially dogs and is a very kind, loving, responsible, respectful and caring person. She worked retail for years and knows how customer service is very important. She has very good common sense and a great personality. She has her own dog Cody a standard size Labradoodle she loves and adores so much. I definitely would advise to use Alexandra as a loving and responsible pet caregiver.

Kaeli was amazing. Super fast response to my booking request, punctual, and very communicative. We were on vacay at the KOA RV park and she took amazing care of our senior dog and even took him out to the beach for a fun walk and sunset while hubby and I enjoyed some activities in town that we were unfortunately not suitable for pets. We felt at ease knowing that he was in great hands. Thanks Kaeli!

I HATE leaving my dogs and rarely leave town becuase of this. The first time I met Denise, she told me about her pug and how much she missed her. She had an easy manner and I knew would be a great fit for Daisey and Luna. During my weeks away from my babies - I received updates and pictures. She made me feel like it was ok to leave and I was relaxed as I knew that they were in good hands. I will absolutely book Denise again to hang out with my puggies!

Marley is skilled, friendly, and clear as a communicator. When we met, she asked great questions and was curious about my pups's quirks and needs. Pretty sure my dog fell a little bit in love with her. The house was in great shape when I got back. Will definitely hire her again.

We are so happy to find AnnMarie! Yes, we will be calling her again. Ann Marie is perfect for our 90# lab as she is kind, attentive, fun & loving. We knew we left our dog in responsible hands and that she would take really good care of him! They had a great time together and she did not mind that our dog loves to cuddle. She sent us photos and kept our boy happy & busy. We were very fortunate to find her! Thank you so much AnnMarie!

I can’t say enough good things about Julia after she took care of my dog, Rue, and cat, Squish, during a multi-day stay at my home. Leaving my pets for that long was nerve-wracking, but Julia immediately put me at ease. She handled everything so thoughtfully, keeping my pets happy and my home in perfect order. Rue loved the walks and playtime, and Squish was clearly spoiled with all the attention. It was such a relief to get regular updates and photos—whether it was Rue out on a walk or Squish lounging contentedly. What impressed me the most was how much care she put into making sure my pets stayed comfortable and my house was just as I left it. It’s clear Julia genuinely loves animals and takes her work seriously. I came home to happy pets and a stress-free home, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and detail-oriented for a drop in to multi-day stay, Julia is absolutely amazing. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!

Lucas is an incredible and thoughtful caregiver. He is calm and quiet, which reassures almost any animal whether it be a cat, dog, horse, or whatever he meets! Lucas is patient and kind, a true animal lover. He has taken care of my dog many times and she is always happy to see him walk in the door. He is attentive to care (even complicated instructions regarding medications) and is quick to notice anything that is abnormal about your animal and will let you know. I recommend Lucas for you pet sitting needs!

About: 1st booking for free with this code! PATRIG31306 I have been interested in dogs since early elementary school and have owned and trained different breeds thoughout the years. I am a responsible, caring person. I will work with your dog on positive reinforcement training and socialization while providing much needed exercise. Neighborhood walks, beach trips, hikes, etc. - shampoo, hose off, and brushing extra. Happy dogs, happy owners. I am a musician that typicially works nights and weekends. I love dogs and walking and working with them. Bringing dogs out to enjoy our amazing area while their owners are busy is an ideal situation for all. My availability is generally until 2pm M-F. One day notice is fine, although I would prefer a set routine with each client. Two enclosed patios. Short walk to dog park. I do not intended to house dogs, but in an emergency situation with the right clients, a safe environment is available.
