Palma was great and took good care of the house and our three pets. I would have appreciated a little more day to day communication but I didn't ask for it so it is difficult to fault her there. Otherwise, our pets and house are in perfect health and they were well taken care of

We booked a dog/house sitting service with Charlene and we have no complaints! She provided detailed updates daily and was able to handle our two dogs and my brother’s puppy with no problems. We are very happy with her work and we were able to enjoy our holiday worry-free.

Jennifer was an amazing sitter for our puppy while we’re away. She took great care of both our home and our 14 week old puppy while we were gone for 5 days. She was very accommodating to his needs as he had not been fully vaccinated yet and sent us multiple photos and updates throughout each day. She was very considerate of his routine as a puppy and was able to provide stability for him. We will definitely be rebooking in the future if we need to. Can’t thank her enough for taking care of our pup!

About: I have taken care of dogs for years. I have walked, fed, and loved on them for friends and family while they worked or were on vacation. I also volunteered at the local shelter walking dogs so they could socialize and get exercise. I am currently a college student but I have weekdays and weekends free. I am available for walking, checking in on, and/or feeding your fur family. I live in Murrieta so there are a bunch of parks around here! I like to go on walks and to dog parks. My mother and little sister are around and they love animals also!

About: I like to be active with pets and can also adjust to their personality. I enjoy just being present and spending time with all animals in general I’m currently working full time so after work is best fit for me. Anytime from 5 o clock until whenever. Also free on the weekends I tend to play inside a lot but going outside is a plus. Walks included and just being active if possible. Sometimes just sitting down and relaxing going with the dog and its individual needs

If I could give 10 stars I would! Elizabeth is absolutely amazing with pets and I highly recommend having her care for your pets. She was so engaging with all of my animals and sent pictures and updates, she’s incredibly kind and genuinely cares for your animals. She even came another time for me when I asked last minute and she was more than helpful to us. I am very grateful I found her and her services and will be using her again. Thank you so much Elizabeth!!!! ~Alyssa, Ben, Lili, Max and Lana <3

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, now I’m ready to help take care of your four-legged friend. My home is their home and will be loved . I am available to watch your four-legged friend on the weekends, so you can enjoy a getaway and know your pet is in good hands I will always have your dog on a leash as that’s what I had to do for mine for 20 years just to be on the safe side.

About: I'll be honest, I am doing this because I need extra money. But I want to make extra money spending time with your pets because I love being around animals and I want to spend actual time with them giving them love, exercise, and a good time. I am able to spend actual time with them as I am a teacher and do not work during the summer. Animals deserve to be shown affection as much as possible throughout the day especially when a lot of their time is spent waiting for owners to come home. Don't let your pets wait around for you, give them someone to hangout with in the meantime! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes! I know how important it is for animals to be cared for meaning being fed, bathed, and given a good rubbin. If you have any questions, feel free to ask (: I am a teacher on summer break so I am fully available for your pets! I love to take them for walks and play with them. I care for pets by taking them for walks and to the bathroom based on their schedule at home. I love to play with dogs and give them rubs. I love making new dog friends.

This was the first time we left our dog with someone other than family or a close friend. Emily did an amazing job of easing our anxiety as well as keeping our very anxious dog comfortable while we were away. She learned our dog’s personality quickly and kept us updated with regular updates and pictures. She got the cutest pictures of our dog too. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog! We will definitely rebook Emily in the future!

Kate was absolutely amazing! We were so worried about our special needs cat while we were out of town but both of our cats and dog loved her!! She was able to get out very shy cat to eat his medicine and play with her in such a short amount of time. We will definitely be using Kate in the future when we’re out of town!
