About: I know it sucks to leave your beloved doggo at home, but don’t you worry, I am here to help! I have over 15 years of experience taking care of our furry little friends ranging from fresh out the womb puppies to senior dogs needing insulin shots. I’ve done it all and I’ve seen it all. However, I go at the pace of your requests. Putting you and your best friend first. I have a dog but she does not live with me in Santa Barbara. my weekly schedule consists of work Monday and Tuesday from 8-1 PM. The other days I’m very flexible. Please note if you book with me on Mon/Tues I am only available outside of 8-1 PM for drop off requests. I abide by all the rules given by the client pertaining to their home. I am respectful, clean, and organized. I take great pride in my services and will make sure I meet the client and the pup’s needs! There are no dogs in my home. I live in a two floor townhome with one other person.

In the 26+ years I've known Hilary, she has never been without a dog in her life that she has loved and cared for almost as much as her own children. She is an excellent and considerate caretaker that anyone would be fortunate to have watch and/or care for their treasured pet. Simply stated, there is no one better than Hilary to watch over your dog.

Jennifer was absolutely excellent puppy sitting my 2 year old Pomeranian Ruby! I felt completely comfortable knowing that Ruby was in qualified, loving hands. Jennifer sent me photos daily as well as shared updates on how Ruby was doing while I was away for two weeks. Jennifer asked all the right questions regarding Ruby's care to ensure a positive, happy visit. I am so fortunate to have Jennifer in my network as a reliable sitter for Ruby when I go out of town. Ruby absolutely adored her and I can tell they developed a beautiful friendship! I am so grateful! Thank you Jennifer!

There are very few people that I trust with my dog, Chastity, but Jenni is our number one. Jenni sends consistent “pupdates” and is very attentive to Chastity’s needs. Chastity and I highly recommend Jenni. Sometimes I book Jenni on weekends when I am not going away because Chastity loves her so much! Thank you Jenni - you are pawesome!

I felt very comfortable leaving my kitty with Courtney! I know cats have a reputation for being independent but some (mine) still need plenty of attention while we’re away and I was glad to know Courtney understood gets it. Courtney was great, especially if you have a kitty that wants more during a visit than a full food bowl.

Janine is an outstanding pet sitter who has been caring for my two dogs and cat for several years. She is incredibly reliable, always punctual, and takes her responsibilities seriously. Her compassion shines through in the way she interacts with my pets, ensuring they are well-fed, exercised, and showered with attention. My dogs, typically anxious around new people, warmed up to her immediately, demonstrating her gentle and caring nature. She also provides regular updates and photos, giving me peace of mind when I'm away. Janine handles any issues with professionalism and kindness, and my independent cat receives just as much care and attention. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter. Her love for animals is evident in every interaction.

Rachael loves pets all shapes and sizes. She’s the lady that comes up and asks to pet your pup and has a treat in her pocket. When she takes a walk she makes sure to go down the street where she knows the kitty that is always out. She is loving and caring and will give your pet the best, intuitive care.

Hannah is a very responsible and attentive individual. I have known Hannah as she has matured. She has always been loving, caring and responsible when taking care of her own two dogs Buddy and Libby. My family has known Hannah for 20 years, she has helped us with our red-foot tortoise Rigor while we have vacationed for the past 9 years. Hannah follows instructions, and has always been a pleasure to be around. Hannah will make a wonderful care-giver for your pet!

Dogs always show you how they feel around someone, and I'm so thankful for how at peace, excited, and comfortable mine is around David (especially since he's normally not a huge fan of men). I always know he's truly in good hands with someone that is going to GENUINELY love and care for him. David, aka "the Dog Whisperer," is someone I will trust over and over w/ my boy! He has shared with me about his lifetime of being around and raising dogs - and it shows!
