“Brittany was the best! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures too! I really appreciated the extra time and effort she also gave the girls when she was at my home! I’ll definitely be calling her again soon! ❤️🙏😻”

“I just moved to the area and needed someone last minute to help me with my dog - feeding and a couple walks - while I was at Disneyland for the day. It's always hard to leave your dog, especially when you don't know the person, but Angela was wonderful and exceeded my expectations. She was super responsive to my initial outreach and asked great questions. I loved getting the visit reports and photos from her throughout the day. She took extra time to get to know the dog and make him comfortable, and did other little thoughtful things that made me feel like she treated the dog and my home like her own. I can't express my appreciation enough, and will definitely be calling Angela again!”

About: I am a full time house/pet sitter! I love the life of taking care of people's homes and beloved animals. I raised my family with tons of pets - dogs, cats, frogs, fish, lizards, snakes, hamsters, etc. I now care for others' in the same way as if they were my own - with complete care and love. I have been on a different app with over thirty 5 star reviews. I am new to this one! You won't be disappointed by giving me the opportunity. :) I work remotely for an organization that specializes in walking alongside foster care youth that are aging out of the system. I can be anywhere to do my job! So I have lots of time to be present for your animals. I am very flexible - accommodating what I do to be in line with the pets' routines and needs. Giving medicine, caring for aging animals with gentleness, lots of play time and cuddle time. I also leave a home as clean (or often more clean!) as when I arrived. Being respectful of others' privacy comes naturally to me and it is something I take seriously.
About: Hello 🐶💕 I’m Taylor and I would love to be your pet’s next best friend! I am a full-time, experienced dog sitter, walker, and handler, with over 10 years of hands on experience in dog care. Additionally, I am a hiker and spend most of my time on a trail with my dog. I stay home FULL TIME, which means your dog will receive proper supervision, individualized attention, and a consistent routine throughout the day! I pride myself on being deeply attentive to each dog’s unique needs. My ultimate goal is to give your pup an outlet for their imagination to wander. Whether that be through a nice long walk, a play session, or running around in our backyard. I have worked independently with dogs since my teenage years. Additionally, I’ve worked professionally in a dog day camp and boarding facility. I gained experience supervising large play groups, walking multiple dogs at once, preparing meals, and providing structured care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m especially experienced and comfortable working with: High energy breeds, Anxious or nervous dogs, Reactive or sensitive dogs, and Dogs who need structure, routine, and patience. My goal is always to provide a safe, enriching, and loving environment, while giving you total peace of mind knowing your dog is in capable, experienced hands. Please note that on certain days, I may have to leave the house a couple times throughout the day for an hour or less to complete walks and care for other clients. If your dog is unable to stay alone in the home (or crated) for that time, we may not be a good fit. I currently have open availability and stay home most of the day, allowing me to fully prioritize your dog’s schedule, routines, and needs to ensure a happy and fulfilled pup! I live in a house with a fully fenced backyard and my 4 year old rescue husky, Buster. He is friendly, well socialized, and accustomed to sharing space with other dogs. Your dog will have: - A calm and safe indoor environment - Supervised outdoor time - Plenty of exercise, play, mental stimulation, and rest I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own and aim to create a stress free, positive experience for both you and your pet.
About: The last two dogs I had were the best pets I've ever had, one in particular I took everywhere, hiking, running, swimming and even to play basketball. I even took her halfway up Mt. Diablo one time. I feel like every dog owner should expose their dogs to many outside environments, something other than there backyard or house. The only regrets I have about my past ownership is not taking my dogs out everyday. As an owner I believe that dogs should be treated more than just a convenient stress reliever. Dogs can be your closest friend so they ought to be cared for and treated like a great one. What I bring to the table is a genuine love for all dogs and an understanding of their needs. I can be fairly flexible on weekdays for visits and walks, but am mostly available only in the afternoon. Weekends, I am pretty much always available. House sits I can do any day of the week. To start off, I always start off by caring for the pet as outlined by the owner (routines, feeding schedules, medications, things to avoid, walks). But in addition to that, I like to have some fun with the dogs that I sit. I will play with them a bit and in general just hang out with them.
“We’re always so happy to leave Zuzu with Bella because we know she’ll be happy to see her favorite pet sitter! She’s shy but Bella knows just how to bring her out of her shell!!”


“Reviewed by Pet: Thank you for being my new friend, feeding me, cleaning my doodie box, bushing me with my favorite brush, playing with my toys and taking really of photos of me. I asked my mom if you could come back and visit next time. I don’t like strangers usually but I was very excited to see you each drop in. You are my new best friend! Love, Cooper the cat. P.S. I really enjoyed the belly rubs”

“Everything was perfect with Allie. She spent a lot of time with my cats and was attentive with them the entire time. When I came home they were in a great mood, and no accidents (which always happens when I leave town)! She did more than required, cleaned the litter daily, bowls and brought in the mail. I’m more than happy. And on top of that, she is just a kind, trustworthy person! Will always book Allie in the future.”

“Perry did a great job for us! He was punctual, organized and communicative. Extremely professional and warm. We'll be happy to have him back to watch the girls again soon.”

About: I love engaging and playing with dogs and ensuring that they're happy! As an avid animal lover since childhood, nothing makes me happier than a wagging tail and a slobbery grin! I miss my dogs who have since passed away, so I will treat your dog like my own. I have had a sheltie named Buddy, a chihuahua named Major, and a golden doodle named Baer. I am currently applying to medical school after several years in biotech. I am very flexible, and am available every day at any time. Having had 3 dogs and helping to train and care for all of them, I am well experienced with all sizes of dog, and am prepared to learn how to make your individual pet happy. I am currently doing medical school applications and working part time, so any pup requests are my priority. I’m very flexible with scheduling, just let me know how I can best keep your pets schedule consistent! I do my best to ensure your pup’s routine stays intact, spending as much time with them as I can to give them the attention you would if you were home.
About: Hey, I'm Abbie! I'm a lifelong animal girl with love to spare! Being away from my family pets means that any time I can hang out with an animal of any kind, I'll jump at the chance. I've been consistently volunteering for a variety of shelters and humane societies since age 10, and our high-maintenance family dog (not in my residence) has prepared me for a variety of pet hijinks. I love a good walk around the peaceful Thousand Oaks area, and I'm more than happy to bring your furry friend with me. I can administer medications if necessary, and I also have some experience in basic trick and obedience training, so if you want your puppy knowing how to sit by the time you come home, I'm your girl! I am a graduate psychology student and part-time children's coach, so my hours may be subject to some change. As of now, I'm 100% available all day and night on Wednesdays no matter what! I am USUALLY also available all day on Mondays and Fridays. Weekends are dependent on some of my on-the-fly scheduling, but if weekend care is needed, just let me know and I'll more than likely be able to help you out! Your pet's safety will always be my highest priority. I am very well-versed in keeping a watchful eye on pets, whether they be couch potatoes or escape artists. I will always respect their space and your home. I am also trained in safe handling, animal body language, and reducing animal stress. You will never have to worry about your pet's safety when they're in my hands. If you need small additional services while away from the home (ex. watering plants, feeding other animals like fish, brushing your pet, etc.), then let me know and I'll totally help out!
“Zoe is so attentive to Jinx and her quirkiness, she is a talker and Zoe tells me about their daily chats when she checks in with her 💜. Zoe is very caring in making sure things are left clean as well. I highly recommend her!”

“Julia was very helpful and took care of everything I could’ve hoped for while I travelled last minute for a funeral. My very shy cats warmed up to her quickly which says to me that she’s patient and kind—my fussy little furballs often take 3-4 occasions with a new person to get as comfortable as they were with her within a few days. I was grateful to know they were in good hands while I dealt with a difficult situation many states away.”

Becki’s been our cat sitter twice now - once when our 15 year old cat just had dental surgery and needed extra attention, and most recently when our two cats were at home alone for 2 weeks. Both times, Becki’s been communicative and has gone above and beyond by grabbing mail, watering plants, and sending detailed cat updates. We know our girls are in good hands with her!
